.click() not working on button for Android?

Garima_Mody 2016-07-08 06:27:42 UTC #1

I am using Appium 1.5.3 on ubuntu. The .click() and tap() isn't working for button. My code is:

webDriver.findElement(By.id("btn_login"));
TouchAction Action = new TouchAction((MobileDriver) webDriver);
Action.tap(webDriver.findElement(By.id("btn_login")));

what is the output displaying over appium server after this action ?

Garima_Mody 2016-07-11 05:39:04 UTC #5

I said about the uiauotomatorviewer output not the console output

Garima_Mody 2016-07-11 11:35:57 UTC #9

sorry but where do we get output in uiautomatorviewer?

yadsandy 2016-07-11 11:42:49 UTC #10

I mean the screenshot of inspecting the element using uiautomatorviewer (You can open uiautomatorviewer directly type it over cmd or terminal)

Garima_Mody 2016-07-12 05:32:53 UTC #11

yadsandy 2016-07-12 05:40:06 UTC #12

Here you mentioned different id for button and the id displaying in uiautomatorviewer is different . please recheck it and try again

Garima_Mody 2016-07-12 07:00:24 UTC #13

i am using btn_login only.

Seems like similar issue with click on android i posted here - https://discuss.appium.io/t/cannot-click-on-a-web-element-in-chrome-possible-when-selendroid-is-used/2144/6

Suman_Bala 2016-08-18 17:45:41 UTC #15

@Garima_Mody you can find element by ID or xpath in this case. See below - Use any of them

driver.findElement(By.id("btn_login")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.Button[@text='Login']")).click();

Hi
You may try this: add scroll to the location of element before click, this worked for me when click the button in Chrome of android mobile

public void clickElement(WebElement el) {
	try {
		if(Base.platformName.equalsIgnoreCase(ConstantName.ANDROID))
	((JavascriptExecutor) Base.base.getDriver()).executeScript("window.scrollTo(0," +el.getLocation().x+ ")");
		TouchActions ta = new TouchActions(Base.base.getDriver());
		ta.singleTap(el).perform();
	} catch (WebDriverException ex) {
		throw ex;
	}
}

What is correct solution for this?

tjmaher1 2017-06-01 01:29:00 UTC #18

Use Appium Desktop to investigate the mobile element.

Maybe the Mobile element isn't set to be clickable or tappable?

I have same issue. I have opened it on appium desktop and mobile element isn’t set to be clickable or tappable.
what is the solution of this issue?

Hi,

driver.executeScript(“mobile: performEditorAction”, ImmutableMap.of(“action”, “done”));

github.com

appium/appium/blob/master/docs/en/writing-running-appium/android/android-ime.md

## How To Emulate IME Actions Generation

Very often Android developers use [onEditorAction](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.OnEditorActionListener.html#onEditorAction(android.widget.TextView,%20int,%20android.view.KeyEvent)) callback with `actionId` argument to implement actions handling, for example, when `Search` or `Done` button is pressed on the on-screen keyboard. Appium since version 1.9.2 allows to automate the generation of such actions by providing the special `mobile:` command.


### mobile: performEditorAction

Executes the given editor action on the _currently focused_ element.

#### Supported arguments

 * _action_: The name or an integer code of the editor action to be executed. The following action names are supported: `normal, unspecified, none, go, search, send, next, done, previous`. Read https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo for more details on this topic.

#### Usage examples

```java
// Java
driver.executeScript("mobile: performEditorAction", ImmutableMap.of("action", "Go"));
```
