Re: Clearing a textbox in mobile devices in script
I was wrong about iOS. The Keys method for iOS devices does seem to delete the existing text in the control prior to entering the new text. I thought that I saw the same behaviour between Android and iOS but apparently I was wrong. The Keys method doesn't delete the existing text on Android devices but this is fixed by first entering multiple backspaces.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Clearing a textbox in mobile devices in script
SetText does not seem to be a supported method for controls on Android and iOS as it is for Windows Desktop applications. The solution I am now using for Android is entering x amount of backspaces in to the control (where x is the amount of characters the existing text in the control consists of) before entering the new text. I have not yet found a solution for iOS as "[BS]" (backspace) is not supported.982Views0likes0CommentsRe: Clearing a textbox in mobile devices in script
I would select the text and type in the new text but this doesn't work. After selecting the text with the LongTouch method, entering text with the Keys method still appends it to the existing text. I will try to look for another solution to this problem.1KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Clearing a textbox in mobile devices in script

It is also documented that certain special keys are not supported for iOS. https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/test-objects/members/mobile/keys.html On iOS devices, the Keys method may fail to simulate pressing special keys, like SHIFT, CTRL, ALT, or Backspace.1.1KViews0likes5CommentsClearing a textbox in mobile devices in script
I have a problem where I need to enter in new text in a control that already has some text in it I tried the following to overwrite the existing text: // Select the existing text in the texbox textbox.LongTouch(10, textbox.Height / 2) // Enter new text textbox.Keys(text); While the LongTouch method does select all the text in the textbox, following it with the Keys method still appends the new text to the existing text.SolvedSlow FPS while recording a KeywordTest on local Appium
I'm getting a very slow fps (at around 2 fps) while recording a keywordtest through a local Appium instance with a connected physical android device. Are there any ideas on what's causing this issue or any known ways to fix this problem?596Views0likes3Comments
