How long should a tap last for android?

Trying to understand something in a code I've just seen. To implement a "tap", the following code is written:

driver.mouse_down(...)
sleep(1)
driver.mouse_down(...)

My question is how it can be known that the sleep is long enough? Can I make it shorter? Is there a standard about minimal tap time etc?

Thanks

Solution

  • There is no minimum tap time used by the Android platform. There are longer times for detecting things like long presses, which are defined by http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/ViewConfiguration.html
