How to find element in React-Native app using appium. Here the element does not have id, name or accessibility label or accessibility id to find it.

@AndroidFindBy(xpath = "//android.widget.EditText[@text='Email']")
public AndroidElement edt_email_login;

@AndroidFindBy(xpath = "//android.widget.EditText[@text='Password']")
public AndroidElement edt_password_login;

@AndroidFindBy(xpath = "//android.widget.EditText[@text='Login']")
public AndroidElement btn_login;

Error:

org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Can't locate an element by this strategy: By.chained({By.xpath: //android.widget.EditText[@text='Login']})

  • If the element doesn't have an accessibility id then how to find it?? – Jatush Lashkari Sep 12 '19 at 11:15
  • There are lot of other properties to find element like by name, by ID etc. Refer : http://appium.io/docs/en/commands/element/find-elements/ – Saif Siddiqui Nov 04 '19 at 07:07

Since you are using Appium, do you have an AppiumDriver or AndroidDriver instance you can use?

Rather than use @AndroidFindBy(xpath = "//android.widget.EditText[@text='Password']") public AndroidElement edt_password_login;, I would recommend trying something a little more simple, like this:



private class Selectors
{
    public static readonly By Password = By.XPath("//android.widget.EditText[@text='Password'];

    public static readonly By Email = By.XPath("//android.widget.EditText[@text='Email']");

}

This works around the need for @AndroidFindBy, which I think is what may be throwing the error here. You can locate your elements using the driver:

driver.findElement(Selectors.Email); driver.findElement(Selectors.Password);
