Click on Link in robotium

Question

How can I make Robotium click on a particular link in a page?

We don't know what you're talking about. Can you edit your question to include more details about what exactly you're trying to do? What is robotium? — Cody Gray - on strike, Mar 28 '11 at 07:36
[Robotium](http://code.google.com/p/robotium/) is a Selenium-like testing framework for Android. — Miikka, Mar 28 '11 at 19:19

You should try clicking the the anchor text in the link. For example, if the link says www.google.com you can do this:

this.solo.clickOnText("www.google.com");

It is working for me. It should work for you too.

I recommended you to install TestDroid eclipse plugin, it seems like Selenium IDE but for Robotium, obviously

You can use solo.clickOnText() as you purpose is only to click on the link which will be solved by this.

I have fixed so many issues of mine by solo.clickOnText()

Thanks

You can use clickOnHtmlElement method provided by Testdroid in library, which extends robotium-solo.
