Common positioning strategies

General positioning strategy (applicable to the whole platform):

FindElement (s) ByName

FindElementById

FindElement (s) ByClassName

FindElement (s) ByXPath

The above four are very basic positioning strategies without much introduction, among which the positioning of XPath is a little more complicated. Readers can familiarize themselves with the syntax of xpath, which will be of great help.

Android unique positioning strategy:

FindElement (s) ByAndroidUIAutomator

This positioning method is actually transformed through the UISelector positioning mode of the UIautomator framework. If you are familiar with UISelector, this is very simple to understand.

Introduce several simple UISelector positioning methods, new UiSelector.resourceId (), new UISelector.text, new UISelector.className ()

E.g:

Driver.findElementByAndroidUIAutomator ("new UiSelector () .className (\" android.widget.ImageView\ ") .clickable (true)")

Driver.findElementByAndroidUIAutomator ("new UiScrollable (new UiSelector (). Scrollable (true)) .scrollIntoView (new UiSelector (). TextContains (\" Test\ ")"))
