    The pop up made as toast has controls that can be accessed Yes, No, OK Cancel buttons and I was ondering if I can access the controls. Inside the upper layer there is a method FindId that takes an int as parameter. If the Ids would be set to the pop up and its controls, this might work.

     

    Thanks

      Hi,

       

      > The pop up made as toast 

      Tested application must be instrumented in order TestComplete can access its internals. Toasts are system objects and thus I am far not sure that their internals can be made accessible to TestComplete.

      What I would do in this case is wait for the toast to appear with the help of the .WaitForControlWithText() and then use Image-Based testing (https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/mobile/android/image-based-testing.html) to find and touch required button.

       

      You may also create a Support ticket via the https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=TestComplete form and ask if guys can suggest some better approach.

        The application is instrumented. I have access to other controls, except these native pop ups.

        The solution with WaitForControlWithText works, but, since the control is not accessible, I cannot access it's children.

         

        Is there a method for instance I saw soething like FindId() which requires an ID int ?

        Do you know how to get the Object to have access to its children.
