Drag(Zone, DragElement, DragIndex, DropElement, DropIndex)

Description​

Drag an element or text in a specified zone (you can drag the second, third, etc appearance of the element by setting Index to 1, 2, etc), and drop it on another element.

Parameters​

  • Zone - Select Zone.
  • DragElement - Select Element from drop-down list OR (for OCR text identification) insert text into the empty box in the drop down list.
  • DragIndex - Element Order (the number of times the  element appears more than once).
  • DropElement - Select Element from drop-down list OR (for OCR text identification) insert text into the empty box in the drop down list.
  • DropIndex - Element Order (the number of times the  element appears more than once).

Usage​

Scenario**:** In the following example, we will use the DragDrop command together with the SeeTestAutomation - SetDragStartDelay command in order to move the Hangouts icon across the device's springboard, and drop it on the YouTube icon, in order to add it to a folder.

Command usage: We will first use the SetDragStartDelay command in order to press the element for 1000 milliseconds before starting the drag. We will then use the DragDrop command with the following configurations:

Parameters: 

  • Zone - will be set to NATIVE

  • DragElement - will be set to xpath=//*[@text='Hangouts'] in order to identify the Hangouts icon element.

  • DragIndex - will be set to 0

  • DropElement - will be set to xpath=//*[@text='YouTube'] in order to identify the YouTube icon element.

  • DropIndex - will be set to 0

This will be the result of the sequence:
