Tap mobile elements
For people familiar with web automation , clicking is a common and simple
action, but in the mobile landscape, tapping is the action that replaces clicking.

 Tap mobile elements
Tap by using an element

public void tapByElement (AndroidElement androidElement,

AndroidDriver driver) {
TouchAction action = new TouchAction(driver);

action.tap(TapOptions.tapOptions().withElement(ElementOption.ele
ment(androidElement))).perform();
}

public void tapByCoordinates (int x, int y, AndroidDriver driver) {

TouchAction action = new TouchAction(driver);
action.tap(PointOption.point(x,y));
}

Long press
Long press is a mobile gesture that is widely
used by people. It is a wonderful feature; most
people say that you should touch and hold instead
of using long press. By using long press, you can
get more information about a particular feature.
Just like a context-click on the Web, it also
enables multiselection in mobile apps.

TouchAction(driver).longPress(PointOption.po
int(element.getLocation().getX(),
element.getLocation().getY()))

Swipe and Scroll
In general, scrolling is the process of moving the visual portions of mobile apps
in order to see additional information.
On a mobile device, you can use your finger to swipe up or down in order to
scroll down or scroll up the screen. Swiping your finger upwards will lead to a
scroll down and swiping down will perform a scroll up

Swipe and Scroll
public void swipe(int startx, int starty, int endx, int endy) {

new TouchAction(driver).longPress(PointOption.point(startx, starty))

.moveTo(PointOption.point(endx, endy))

.release().perform();

Swipe and Scroll
public void swipeMobileUp() {

Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();

int starty = (int) (size.height * 0.8);

int endy = (int) (size.height * 0.2);

int startx = size.width / 2;

swipe(startx, starty, startx, endy);

Swipe and Scroll
public void swipeMobileDown() {

Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();

int starty = (int) (size.height * 0.8);

int endy = (int) (size.height * 0.2);

int startx = size.width / 2;

swipe(startx, endy, startx, starty);

public void rightLeftSwipe() {

Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();

int startx = (int) (size.width * 0.90);

int endx = (int) (size.width * 0.10);

int starty = size.height / 2;

Capturing screenshots
File screenShot=driver.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
File location=new File("screenshots");
String
screenShotName=location.getAbsolutePath()+File.separator+"testCalcula
to r.png";
FileUtils.copyFile(screenShot,new File(screenShotName));

Manage device orientation
One convenience of using smartphones and
tablets is that when you hold the device
either horizontally or vertically, the mobile
app will adjust to the new viewport size. In
the beginning of the mobile app
development era, most defects were
discovered because of an orientation
change, so it is important to run test cases
on orientation change to make sure that the
app works fine when users change the
orientation. You want to know how to change
the orientation using Appium.

Manage device orientation

driver.rotate(ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE);

driver.rotate(ScreenOrientation.PORTRAIT);

Install and Uninstall Native Apps

Installing, upgrading, and deleting applications can be tricky because these

tasks require a lot of changes to the memory and cache on a device. So, testing
scenarios related to these steps are important for covering edge scenarios in
your test strategy.

 Install and Uninstall Native Apps
Automate launching, closing, installing, and removing an app from an Android device.

With the following code, you are performing the following actions on an Android app:

1. Checking whether the app is launched

2. Closing the app
3. Launching the app again
4. Checking whether the app is launched
5. Checking whether app is installed
6. Removing the app from the device
7. Installing the app again
8. Checking whether the app is installed

09e-BM/DT/FSOFT - ©FPT SOFTWARE - Fresher Academy - Internal Use 19

 Install and Uninstall Native Apps
Confirm If App is launched: Check If App is installed

Driver.currentActivity() Driver.isAppInstalled(io.appium.android)

Close the App: Remove App

Driver.closeApp() Driver.removeApp(io.appium.android)

Launch the App again: Install App again

Driver.launchApp() Driver.installApp(appFilePath)
