Alexander Sorokin updated CB-12501:
-----------------------------------
Description:
Currently Appium tests use XPath selectors, which are sloppy and buggy. For
example, we are forced to select certain elements quite a few times in a row to
get the one that we need:
{noformat}
return driver
.waitForElementByXPath('//android.widget.TextView[@text="Gallery"]', 20000)
.elementByXPath('//android.widget.TextView[@text="Gallery"]') // multiple
calls here for an Android bug:
.elementByXPath('//android.widget.TextView[@text="Gallery"]') // on Windows
+ Android emulator, element selection
.elementByXPath('//android.widget.TextView[@text="Gallery"]') // is
completely wonky. Unfortunately duplicating element()
.elementByXPath('//android.widget.TextView[@text="Gallery"]') // calls is
the only workaround identified thus far.
