Not able to find locator in appium python

Question

I am new to appium python client and need your suggestions to solve my below issue.PFA uiautomator viewer screen shot.Not sure if this is the reason: after typing into email field, a keyboard opens up so password and sign in button are not located I have downloaded a free sample xxx.apk and created below script to test it:

class CareZoneAndroidTests(unittest.TestCase):
    "Class to run tests against the Care Zone app"
    def setUp(self):
        "Setup for the test"
        desired_caps = {}
        desired_caps['platformName'] = 'Android'
        desired_caps['platformVersion'] = '4.2'
        desired_caps['deviceName'] = 'Android Emulator'
        # Returns abs path relative to this file and not cwd
        desired_caps['app'] = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),'D:/Programs/myapp/CareZone_v6.6.0.0 (flagship)_apkpure.com.apk'))
        desired_caps['appPackage'] = 'com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications'
        desired_caps['appActivity'] = 'com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.ui.activity.LandingActivity'
        self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps)

    def tearDown(self):
        "Tear down the test"
        self.driver.quit()

    def test_login(self):
        "Test the Login Page launches correctly"
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(120)
        print "After WAIT----------------->>>>>>>"
        #Click on Sign in button
        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_toolbar_action")
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(15)
        element.click()
        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_mail_edit")
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(10)
        element.click()
        element.send_keys("[email protected]");
        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_password_edit")
        element.click()
        element.send_keys("abc");
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(10)
        #element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_bton")
        #element = self.driver.find_element_by_accessibility_id('Sign In')
        element = self.driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator('new UiSelector().text("Sign In")')
        element.click()

Issue:

test_login (main.CareZoneAndroidTests) Test the Login Page launches correctly ... After WAIT----------------->>>>>>> ERROR

Tried below but all are failing for the same reason:

• element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_bton")

• element = self.driver.find_element_by_accessibility_id('Sign In')

• element = self.driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator('new UiSelector().text("Sign In")')

Answer 1

Below code worked fine for me:

class CareZoneAndroidTests(unittest.TestCase):
    "Class to run tests against the Care Zone app"
    def setUp(self):
        "Setup for the test"
        desired_caps = {}
        desired_caps['platformName'] = 'Android'
        desired_caps['platformVersion'] = '4.2'
        desired_caps['deviceName'] = 'Android Emulator'
        # Returns abs path relative to this file and not cwd
        desired_caps['app'] = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),'D:/Programs/myapp/CareZone_v6.6.0.0 (flagship)_apkpure.com.apk'))
        desired_caps['appPackage'] = 'com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications'
        desired_caps['appActivity'] = 'com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.ui.activity.LandingActivity'
        self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps)

    def tearDown(self):
        "Tear down the test"
        self.driver.quit()

    def test_login(self):
        "Test the Login Page launches correctly"
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(120)
        print "Sign in Page"
        element = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//android.widget.TextView[@text='Have an account? Sign In']")
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(15)
        element.click()

        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_mail_edit")

        element.click()
        element.send_keys("[email protected]");
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(3)
        self.driver.keyevent(61)

        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_password_edit")
        element.click()
        element.send_keys("ni");
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(3)
        print "Click TABS 2 times to get Sign In button-->>>>>>>"
        self.driver.keyevent(61)
        self.driver.keyevent(61)


        element = self.driver.find_element_by_id("com.carezone.caredroid.careapp.medications:id/welcome_page_sign_bton")

        element.click()
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(120)
        print "TEST OK"
