Appium Espresso Driver with Jetpack Compose

Support
1

Hello Community,

I’m trying to use the appium-espresso-driver rewrite our native espresso-tests with Appium.
But I’m struggling with locating elements, though.

I have the following action in Kotlin which I would like to implement with Appium:

        composeTestRule.onNodeWithTag("onboarding/next")
           .assertIsDisplayed()
           .assertHasClickAction()
           .performClick()

Does anyone have an idea how this action would look like with appium java-client?
I was already able to start the app and an instrumented espresso-server with with the following capability:

capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.AUTOMATION_NAME, AutomationName.ESPRESSO);

When I try to locate the element, however, I receive an androidx.test.espresso.NoMatchingViewException

I’m very thankful for any support.

Currently sravanmedarapu and rajdeepv are working on the topic. It’s still in progress, but it is already possible to try something out of it in appium@beta.

I have recently updated Espresso driver README and added more details about Compose mode usage: https://github.com/appium/appium-espresso-driver
