Getting exception while calling UiScrollable 'scrollForward()' method

Issues/Bugs
1

Hi All,

I want to call an android UiScrollable method ‘scrollForward()’.

I am using below command
driver.find_elements(:uiautomator, "new UiScrollable(new UiSelector().scrollable(true).instance(0)).scrollForward();")

But while calling this, it perform the scroll event on device but returns an exception Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownCommandError.

Though I am able to call driver.find_elements(:uiautomator, "new UiScrollable(new UiSelector().scrollable(true).instance(0)).scrollIntoView(new UiSelector().textStartsWith(\"Contact\").instance(0));") and it return proper results.

Please suggest, what I am doing wrong or a way how to call ‘scrollForward()’, ‘flingForward()’ method without exception.

Thanks

Can you post more extensive logs from your Appium server?

The problem here is the usage of “findElement”

The flingForward returns boolean (true false) and the findElement expects to get a Uiselector / UIObject as a parameter …

I was wondering if there a way to execute UIautomator scripts from appium
