Espresso Swipe on List Item of RecyclerView present inside a ViewPager

Question

A ViewPager contains a RecyclerView. I am attempting to swipe an item in that RecyclerView, but unfortunately at times,the ViewPager gets swiped. Is this a bug in Espresso? The following code has been used to achieve this.

onView(withId(R.id.recyclerview)).perform(
                RecyclerViewActions.actionOnItemAtPosition(1, swipeLeft()));

Looking out for a clear distinction between swiping the list item and the ViewPager

Hey, Did you found the solution? – Uma Achanta Jun 13 '19 at 10:29 — Uma Achanta, Jun 13 '19 at 10:29

I think it is possible to prevent viewpager intercept touch event in recyclerview, like this:

mRecyclerView.addOnItemTouchListener(new RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView recyclerView, MotionEvent e) {
        int action = e.getAction();
        switch (action) {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_UP:
                recyclerView.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                break;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

This is not related to Espresso,rather to general motion event handling. – Nikola Despotoski Oct 17 '16 at 07:38
