Tapping on any WebElement on screen is same as clicking on the object, (just, tap word is a mobile term), but tap method provides some more features.
To tap on any position on screen or center of a webElement, java-client have a class TouchAction which provides 3
methods
Refer – java-client docs
Syntax –
TouchAction tc = new TouchAction(driver);
tc.tap(element).perform();
Let’s see the code implementation
Using system settings app of android handset.
Settings app : Display -> Brightness level -> tap on seek bar to set the level
public class Tap {
static DesiredCapabilities cap;
static AndroidDriver driver;
@BeforeTest
public static void setup() throws MalformedURLException
{
cap = new DesiredCapabilities();
cap.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "Android");
cap.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "5.1.0");
cap.setCapability("deviceName", "mygeny510");
cap.setCapability("appPackage", "com.android.settings");
cap.setCapability("appActivity", ".Settings");
driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), cap);
}
@Test
public static void Tapping() throws InterruptedException
{
WebElement Display = driver.findElement(By.name("Display"));
//Either tap or click on element, tap(webelement el);
//Display.click();
TouchAction tc = new TouchAction(driver);
tc.tap(Display).perform();
WebElement brightLevel = driver.findElement(By.name("Brightness level"));
brightLevel.click();
WebElement SeekBar = driver.findElement(By.className("android.widget.SeekBar"));
TouchAction tc1 = new TouchAction(driver);
tc1.tap(SeekBar, 10, 0).perform();
}
@AfterTest
public static void TearDown()
{
driver.quit();
}
