I want to use Xcode UI tests with the Fastlane Snapshot to make screenshots of the Cordova app. Basically, as my entire app is just a web view, all the Xcode UI test helper methods become irrelevant, and I just want to tap on specific points, e.g. tap(x: 10, y: 10)
should produce a tap at the point {10px; 10px}
.
That's probably very simple, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Thanks.
You can tap a specific point with the XCUICoordinate
API. Unfortunately you can't just say "tap 10,10" referencing a pixel coordinate. You will need to create the coordinate with a relative offset to an actual view.
We can use the mentioned web view to interact with the relative coordinate.
let app = XCUIApplication()
let webView = app.webViews.element
let coordinate = webView.coordinateWithNormalizedOffset(CGVector(dx: 10, dy: 10))
coordinate.tap()
Side note, but have you tried interacting with the web view directly? I've had a lot of success using app.links["Link title"].tap()
or app.staticTexts["A different link title"].tap()
. Here's a demo app I put together demonstrating interacting with a web view.
Update: As Michal W. pointed out in the comments, you can now tap a coordinate directly, without worrying about normalizing the offset.
let normalized = webView.coordinateWithNormalizedOffset(CGVector(dx: 0, dy: 0))
let coordinate = normalized.coordinateWithOffset(CGVector(dx: 10, dy: 10))
coordinate.tap()
Notice that I pass 0,0 to the normalized vector and then the actual point, 10,10, to the second call.
@joe To go a little further off of Joe Masilotti's approach I put mine in an extension
and gave prepositional phrases to the global and local params.
func tapCoordinate(at xCoordinate: Double, and yCoordinate: Double) {
let normalized = app.coordinate(withNormalizedOffset: CGVector(dx: 0, dy: 0))
let coordinate = normalized.withOffset(CGVector(dx: xCoordinate, dy: yCoordinate))
coordinate.tap()
}
By giving the global an identifiable name I can easily understand the instance for example:
tapCoordinate(at x: 100, and y: 200)
<something>.coordinate(withNormalizedOffset: CGVector.zero).withOffset(CGVector(dx:10,dy:60)).tap()
Pass .zero to the normalized vector and then the actual point (10,60)
