Partial swipe left is not working

[vikramvi]

Description

1. I've an element in form of row ( XCUIElementTypeTable[1]/XCUIElementTypeCell[1] ) on which I need to swipe partial left
2. This will unhide button on right side of the row ( XCUIElementTypeTable[1]/XCUIElementTypeCell[1]/XCUIElementTypeButton[1] )
3. I have tried all options possible but couldn't get this working
4. It always results in normal swipe and next screen gets loaded

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

I tried below ways to achieve swipe left in partially

`TouchAction action1 = new TouchAction(driver).press(250 , 147).waitAction(-200).moveTo(147, 200).release();
action1.perform();

            	/*WebElement rowToSlide = AppiumController.instance.driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeApplication[1]/XCUIElementTypeWindow[1]//XCUIElementTypeTable[1]/XCUIElementTypeCell[1]"));
            	               
            	TouchAction swipe = new TouchAction(driver).press(rowToSlide, 250 , 147)
                     .waitAction(-200).moveTo(rowToSlide, 200, 147).release();
      
                     swipe.perform();*/
      
    	    
            	/*Dimension size = rowToSlide.getSize();
            	
            	TouchAction swipe = new TouchAction(driver).press(rowToSlide, size.width / 2 + 100 , size.height / 2).waitAction(2000)
            	            .moveTo(rowToSlide, 100, size.height / 2).release().perform();
            	        //swipe.perform();

*/
// Point location = rowToSlide.getLocation();
//Point center = ((MobileElement) rowToSlide).getCenter();

            	/*WebElement element = AppiumController.instance.driver.findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeApplication[1]/XCUIElementTypeWindow[1]//XCUIElementTypeTable[1]/XCUIElementTypeCell[1]"));
            	Integer x_coordinate = element.getLocation().x;
            	Integer y_coordinate = element.getLocation().y;
            	Integer height = element.getSize().height;
            	Integer width  = element.getSize().width;
            	
            	TouchAction action = new TouchAction(driver);
            	action.press(element).waitAction(1000).moveTo(250, 0).release().perform();`

@vikramvi Why is waitAction negative?

[SrinivasanTarget]

@vikramvi How do you got the values as 250 etc etc hotcoded there?

[vikramvi]

@SrinivasanTarget I tried by giving positive value, removing it altogether and later negative. This was one of the options suggested on appium forum.

But none of them working in this case

[SrinivasanTarget]

AFIK @vikramvi waitAction should be always positive.

[vikramvi]

@vikramvi How do you got the values as 250 etc etc hotcoded there?

First I calculated size of the row which is {0,120} {0,174} { 320,120} {320,174}. To get it work at least, I tried hard coding the values.

[vikramvi]

AFIK @vikramvi waitAction should be always positive.

I tried but didn't work in that case as well

[vikramvi]

One more solution mentioned https://discuss.appium.io/t/partial-swipe-left-on-ios-simulator-10-x-not-working/14948/2 , didn't work as well

[SrinivasanTarget]

I tried but didn't work in that case as well

I believe it should be the issue with the co.ord's given.

[vikramvi]

@SrinivasanTarget can you please suggest what co-ordinates should I try, I spent 2 days and come to conclusion that this could be a bug.

Please refer to attached 2 screen shots for confirmation about correct co-ordinates.

[SrinivasanTarget]

@vikramvi I don't suggest getting Co.ords using Appium/any Inspector. Something that we need to calculate through the dimensions of element. Should be something like this, https://github.com/saikrishna321/VodQaAdvancedAppium/blob/master/src/test/java/com/appium/gesture/GestureTest.java#L25.

[vikramvi]

yes I tried it already, just used appium client to cross check co-ordinates. Earlier posted co-ordinates have got from code and not appium client. @SrinivasanTarget

[saikrishna321]

@vikramvi can you post this on appium.discuss forum with your sample app. That would help to reproduce.

@triager please close 😉

[vikramvi]

@saikrishna321 @SrinivasanTarget @TikhomirovSergey I still feel this is a valid bug. I played with the app for 30 mins.

The behaviour is similar to Mail app in iOS.

I think chaining of events are not happening properly in this case.
Instead of waiting for next chain event Press -> MoveTo -> Release -> Perform
It's( client / server ) doing Press which is resulting in next screen to open; similar to Mail app.

Let me search for some open source project with similar behaviour to reproduce issue

[RockChild]

@vikramvi Are you sure that you need to swipe? I mean what is the purpose for swipe?

[TikhomirovSergey]

@vikramvi It is not the client bug.

[vikramvi]

@RockChild yes, I need to do swipe to get button enabled on right side of row; similar to Mail app email row.

@TikhomirovSergey shall I close this and open new issue in appium repo ?

[TikhomirovSergey]

Please open a new issue here
https://github.com/appium/appium/issues. This issue is related to this repo: https://github.com/appium/appium-xcuitest-driver.

The new one issue please link to this one. User should know where is the problem :)

[vikramvi]

@TikhomirovSergey thanks for confirming it's bug on server side. I've opened new issue appium/appium#7914

[mykola-mokhnach]

@TikhomirovSergey I think this one can be closed as java-driver unrelated issue

[vikramvi]

@triager please close
