NoSuchElementException : Unable to select image from gallery

I am using nexus 5 to test. How can i choose image from gallery using appium in android. When i used following code :

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.ImageView[@content-desc='Photo
    taken on 13 May 2016 12.50']")).click();

I got such Exception:

Exception in thread "main"
org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: An element could not be
located on the page using the given search parameters. (WARNING:The
server did not provide any stacktrace information) Command duration
or timeout: 50.56 seconds
Solution

  • Try to write it with this manner it will select only the first : 

      driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.ImageView[contains(@resource-id,'id of your image')]")).click();

    With this code you can select any elements you want just put instead of i the element you want starting from 0 for the first one : 

    driver.findElements(By.xpath("//android.widget.ImageView[contains(@resource-id,‌​'id of your image')]")).get(i).click();
