What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

espresso-1.0.jar

windows 7 / run Android 2.3.3 emulator



Please provide any additional information below.

When I got error, I also see IME Control dialog.
in normally, i can see this dialog when i longclick empty editbox.
so, I think here code is cause.

----------------------------------------
package com.google.android.apps.common.testing.ui.espresso.action;

public final class TypeTextAction implements ViewAction {

  @Override
  public void perform(UiController uiController, View view) {

    // Perform a click.
    new GeneralClickAction(Tap.SINGLE, GeneralLocation.CENTER, Press.PINPOINT)
        .perform(uiController, view);
    uiController.loopMainThreadUntilIdle();


----------------------------------------

when I use very very slow emulator, 
I have to set pressback  callback with click like below.

onView(withId(R.id.editView)).perform(click(pressBack()));

without callback, the dialog sometimes will be shown.
(its depends on emulator speed)

but click called without callback in TypeText.

what should i do for stable Test success ?

if you need more infromation, please ask me.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is an unfortunate limitation in the way clicks are delivered using 
automation - it may happen that events are inserted between Motion.Down and 
Motion.Up events and turn the click into a long click. This is not something 
under our control, therefore we added the ability to workaround you have 
correctly identified - pressBack as the fallback action (it will only be called 
if click is turned into a longClick, so you should be OK with the stable tests).

thanks for your reply.

you mean we cannot call typetext
 without click (and longclick) , right?

if that, i'm going to use TouchUtils
for type some word or
try disable longclick event of IME in UnitTest code.
