Hi
i am tying to run appium tests on 2 real iPhones using the pages design patterns.
The objects on each page are initialized using annotations like this:
@iOSFindBy(name = "Custom menu.")
protected MobileElement customMenuBtn;
and when a new page is created i use : PageFactory.initElements to initialize it.
When a new page is created an assertion is made to verify i am on the right page:
public void assertInPage() {
try {
// AppiumTest.java
waitForElement(customMenuBtn);
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Waiting for this element of a page that exist and isn’t null sometimes fail and i get NoSuchElementException
This error is inconsistent and it can happen at the first time i create this page or after i return to it.
I can’t try it on simulators so i am running on real devices.
Is it possible the initelements doesn’t actually init all elements even though they are all visible on screen.
I am using appium 1.3.4 and 1.3.5 and it happens in both.
Have been stuck on this for a few days now , any ideas …?
