KARUNAKAR · November 8, 2017, 7:41am

Sendkeys(), Click() are not working for email field.But its working for password field. Please check the below code. and attached screenshot.

Email id field code is:

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeButton[@name=‘Email’]")).click();
((IOSDriver)driver).hideKeyboard();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeButton[@name=‘Email’]")).sendKeys(“test”);

Password field code is:
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]")).click();
((IOSDriver)driver).hideKeyboard();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]")).sendKeys(“raks”);

the locator should be XCUIElementTypeTextField not XCUIElementTypeButton

@Bilal_Jarwan thanks for the response.
Even its not working for this code as well.

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]")).click();
((IOSDriver)driver).hideKeyboard();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]")).sendKeys(“test”);
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]")).click();
((IOSDriver)driver).hideKeyboard();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]")).sendKeys(“raks”);

Displaying this error:

Bilal_Jarwan · November 13, 2017, 7:55am

try this and let me know if its working
By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeOther/XCUIElementTypeTextField/XCUIElementTypeTextField")).sendKeys(“test”);
By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeOther/XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField/XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField")).sendKeys(“raks”);

Hey karunakar, Use IOS driver type cast for entire test case not just for hidekeyboard.

mens

//means some where above where you are declaring the actual driver there itself do the type cast, then only element identification on IOS applies for every step.
//Not sure what code you have at driver delcartion, but make sure u typecast with IOS driver. some thing like
somedriver = (IOSDriver< WebElement >)driver;

// then use that somedriver in the below code

somedriver.findElement(By.xpath(“//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]”)).click();
somedriver.hideKeyboard();
somedriver.findElement(By.xpath(“//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]”)).sendKeys(“test”);
somedriver.findElement(By.xpath(“//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]”)).click();
somedriver.hideKeyboard();
somedriver.findElement(By.xpath(“//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]”)).sendKeys(“raks”);

KARUNAKAR · November 13, 2017, 10:43am

Actually i have mentioned like this.
IOSDriver driver = new IOSDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”),capabilities);
Now what should i change in code. @kumarsiva

kumarsiva · November 13, 2017, 11:09am

That is fine, can you try once by giving 10 seconds wait before to Email click action. or alternatively interchange the steps of email and password up and down try again, let see any time lag is there before loading of all elements on screen

KARUNAKAR · November 13, 2017, 11:32am

@kumarsiva
Am using below code is this ok or should i change anything in this

            File appDir = new File("src");
	File app =new File(appDir,"test.app");
	 
	DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
	capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "iOS");
	capabilities.setCapability("platformversion", "11.0");
	capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iphone Simulator");
	capabilities.setCapability("automationName", "XCUITest");
       capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP,app.getAbsolutePath());
       IOSDriver driver = new IOSDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),capabilities);
      driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
      
      driver.findElementByAccessibilityId("menuwhite48").click();
     driver.findElementByAccessibilityId("Login").click(); //Contact
     Thread.sleep(200);

    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]")).click();
    driver.hideKeyboard();
    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]")).sendKeys("test");
    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]")).click();
    driver.hideKeyboard();

driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]”)).sendKeys(“raks”);
Thread.sleep(90000);

kumarsiva · November 13, 2017, 11:38am

That time 200 is in milli seconds means not even 1 sec, keep it for 10000 and execute once. may be giving wait will resolve the issue

KARUNAKAR · November 13, 2017, 12:10pm

Changed the thread sleep count, Event its displaying the same error.
Password field is working fine with the above code but am not able to enter the text in email id field. i don’t know the exact reason for that…
Please check the above mentioned code and correct me if anything wrong. @kumarsiva

KARUNAKAR · November 13, 2017, 12:12pm

Where should i add this line in this above code.
"< WebElement >)driver

kumarsiva · November 14, 2017, 4:52am

Actually the above code should be

AppiumdDriver< WebElement> driver = new IOSDriver< WebElement>(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”),capabilities);

KARUNAKAR · November 14, 2017, 7:00am

If i use this below line its displaying error like:
Code:
AppiumdDriver< WebElement> driver = new IOSDriver< WebElement>(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”),capabilities);

Error:
The Type AppiumDriver is not generic: it can not be parameterized with arguments
The Type IOSDriver is not generic: it can not be parameterized with arguments

NoteL I think this issue is because of the attached java client. Currently am using java-client-2.1.0.jar. Please look into this and give me the solution.

kumarsiva · November 14, 2017, 7:14am

Yup that could be the reason, you can use latest version of java-client 4.1.1. Even after upgrading java-client, still if it is not working then alternatively you can try the below code in identifying Email. As you said password field is detecting fine, you can try to give below xpath for email field

//XCUIElementTypeSecureTextField[@value=‘Password’]/…/preceding-sibling:://XCUIElementTypeTextField[@value=‘Email’]

KARUNAKAR · November 14, 2017, 7:22am

I found this error after changing the java client to 4.1.1
Multiple markers at this line
- The type org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverService$Builder cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files
- The type org.openqa.selenium.remote.http.HttpClient$Factory cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

KARUNAKAR · November 15, 2017, 1:04pm

@kumarsiva please give me solution for above error.
