Custom swipe approach in Espresso

In espresso, some times the swipe functionality not works like for “Swipeleft”, “swiperight”,”swipeup”,”swipedown”,”swipeup”.

so for this problem we can create a custom swipe to swipe up , down , left and right.

1. Swipe Up :-

Swipe up used to custom swipe the page upward using the id of any element.

public static ViewAction customswipeUp() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.BOTTOM_CENTER,GeneralLocation.TOP_CENTER, Press.FINGER);}

1	public static ViewAction customswipeUp() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.BOTTOM_CENTER,GeneralLocation.TOP_CENTER, Press.FINGER);}

usage:-

onView(withId(R.id. element_id).perform(customswipeUp());

1	onView(withId(R.id. element_id).perform(customswipeUp());

2. Swipe Down :-

Swipe down used to custom swipe the page downward direction using the id of any element.

public static ViewAction customswipeDown() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.TOP_CENTER,GeneralLocation.BOTTOM_CENTER, Press.FINGER);}

1	public static ViewAction customswipeDown() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.TOP_CENTER,GeneralLocation.BOTTOM_CENTER, Press.FINGER);}

usage :-

onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeDown());

1	onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeDown());

3. Swipe Left :-

Swipe left used to custom swipe the page leftward direction using the id of any element.

public static ViewAction customswipeLeft() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.CENTER_RIGHT,GeneralLocation.CENTER_LEFT, Press.FINGER);}

1	public static ViewAction customswipeLeft() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.CENTER_RIGHT,GeneralLocation.CENTER_LEFT, Press.FINGER);}

usage :-

onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeLeft());

1	onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeLeft());

4. Swipe Right :-

Swipe left used to custom swipe the page rightward direction using the id of any element.

public static ViewAction customswipeRight() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.CENTER_LEFT,GeneralLocation.CENTER_RIGHT, Press.FINGER);}

1	public static ViewAction customswipeRight() {return new GeneralSwipeAction(Swipe.FAST, GeneralLocation.CENTER_LEFT,GeneralLocation.CENTER_RIGHT, Press.FINGER);}

usage :-

onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeRight());

1	onView(withId(R.id. element_id)).perform(customswipeRight());

So in this way, we can create a custom swipe approach in espresso when the swipe doesn’t work.

Hope this blog will help you.
