I am using appium and webdriverIO to automate android native app. I need to perform scroll down and i have used
ele.scrollIntoView(true) //this returns not yet implemented error
is there any other way to scroll down?
I don't used java script to scroll down. but I have already given a detail answer with different approach (by some text, element and screen size). Please have a look on it.
How to reach the end of a scroll bar in appium?
Hope it will help.
I have find a way to perform swipe down by calling JsonWireProtocol api directly from my code. https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/JsonWireProtocol
here is my code
module.exports.scrollAndroid = function (ele) {
console.log('driver.sessionID = ', driver.sessionId);
while (!$(ele).isDisplayed()) { . //$(ele)=$(//xpath or any other attribute)
this.scrollAPICall();
driver.pause(3000);
}
};
module.exports.scrollAPICall = function () {
var XMLHttpRequest = require("xmlhttprequest").XMLHttpRequest;
var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
console.log("result status >> ", this.status);
console.log("result text >> ", this.responseText);
};
url1 = `http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub/session/${driver.sessionId}/touch/flick`;
xhttp.open('POST', url1);
console.log("URL >> ", url1)
xhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
xhttp.setRequestHeader("charset", "UTF-8");
xhttp.send(JSON.stringify({
xspeed: 10,
yspeed: -100,
}));
if you want to scroll up then give yspeed as + value. ex:100
You can achieve a scroll down by performing a Screen Swipe Up action. Implementation of swipe class can be found from Boilerplate project. The Gestures.js class has all required functions. Here is the link to class
Please keep in mind that the swipe is performed based on the percentage. Once you implement this Gestures class you can then use it like below:
while(!element.isDisplayed()) {
Gestures.swipeUp(0.5)
}
