Appium - When do we use touch action? Could I have actual example for inputing text with it?

问题

I would like to ask when do we use touch action in Appium. I also want to ask: could we use touch action to tap/press the android.widget.EditText element and sendKeys to it. Could I have an workable example to test it?

回答1:

We use touch action whenever we want to click/tap on the particular element on the device.

For Clicking

You can use touch action for EditText element as bewlow :

driver.findElement(By.xpath("your element xpath/id")).click();

For Typing

Also, You can use sendKeys for EditText Element as below : This internal clicks on the element, clears the text and types the string that you are sending.

driver.findElement(By.xpath("your element xpath/id")).sendKeys("textToBeTyped");

You can click and send keys separately without clearing the existing text inside the text element as below :

driver.findElement(By.xpath("your element xpath/id")).click();
driver.getKeyboard().sendKeys(textToBeTyped);

1.public void tap(int fingers, int x, int y, int duration) {
        appiumDriver.tap(fingers, x, y, duration);
    }

2. public   void swipe(int startx, int starty, int endx,int endy,int duration)
    {
        TouchAction touchAction = new TouchAction(appiumDriver);
        System.out.println(startx+" "+starty);
        System.out.println("Entering swipe");

            System.out.println("Swipe from "+startx +" " +starty +"to" +endx +" " +endy );
            touchAction.press(startx, starty).waitAction(duration).moveTo(endx,endy).release().perform();
    }

3. public void longClick(String element, int index, int clickCount, int X, int Y) {
    WebElement webElement = appiumDriver.findElement(By.xpath(element));

        TouchAction Action = new TouchAction(appiumDriver);
        Action.longPress(webElement).release().perform();

    }

4. public void drag( String element, int index, int xOffset, int yOffset) {
        WebElement webElement = appiumDriver.findElement(By.xpath(element));
        TouchAction drag=new TouchAction(appiumDriver);

        int startX=webElement.getLocation().getX();
        int startY=webElement.getLocation().getY();

        System.out.println("startX: "+startX+" startY: "+startY);
        drag.press(startX,startY).moveTo(xOffset,yOffset).release().perform();

        try {
            Thread.sleep(5000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }

In all the appium client libraries, touch objects are created and are given a chain of events. First you must initialize TouchAction ovbject with your webdriver and then chain your steps in order to perform action. You can demonstrate variety of gestures such as :

Tap
press(Long,Short)
Swipe (from coordinate a to b)
perform multi touch actions

You can do it with given parameters such as duration per action, wait settings, set releasing and more.

examples:

in order to press an element with coordinates :

new TouchAction(driverObject).tap(PointOption.point(x,y)).perform();

or:

new TouchAction(driverObject).press(PointOption.point(x,y)).perform();

in order to swipe element from pointA to pointB with Z duration of millis

//wait parameters for duration purposes
WaitOptions waitOptions = new WaitOptions();
waitOptions.withDuration(Duration.ofMillis(millis));

//The action
new TouchAction(driverObject).longPress.press(fromPoint)
                .waitAction(waitOptions).moveTo(toPoint).release().perform();
