How to use Appium to select the elements from a searchview dropdownlist?

As you can see in this picture, I can't locate the Id or XPath of the details I want to click. I'm using AndroidDriver.

I had tried the following codes:

            AndroidElement searchView = androidDriver.FindElementByAndroidUIAutomator("new UiScrollable(new UiSelector()).scrollIntoView(text(\"Tribology Testing\"));");

but I still can't get the Tribology Testing being select.

Solution

  • We cannot help you to come up with the correct element locator without seeing your application layout, screenshot doesn't help at all.

    You can see the layout by invoking AndroidDriver.getPageSource() function - it will print all the UI hierarchy of the current screen and you will be able to create the corresponding selector.

    Another options are:

    1. Android Device Monitor (part of Android SDK)

    2. Layout Inspector (part of Android Studio)

    3. XPath Feature of the Appium Studio
