Selectors

Commands that interact with a view (e.g tapOn, assertVisible, copyTextFrom) require the view to be specified using using a selector.

There are many different selectors available:

- tapOn: # or any other command that works with selectors
    text: Text       # (optional) Finds element with text or accessibility text that matches regep
    id: id           # (optional) Finds element with accessibility identifier that matches regexp
    index: 0         # (optional) 0-based index of the view to select among those that match all other criteria
    point: 50%, 50%  # (optional) Relative position on screen. "50%, 50%" is the middle of screen
    point: 50, 75    # (optional) Exact coordinates on screen. x:50 y:50, in pixels
    width: 100       # (optional) Finds element of a given width
    height: 100      # (optional) Finds element of a given height
    tolerance: 10    # (optional) Tolerance to apply when comparing width and height
    enabled: true    # (optional) Searches for view with a given "enabled" state
    checked: true    # (optional) Searches for view with a given "checked" state
    focused: true    # (optional) Searches for view with a given "focused" state
    selected: true   # (optional) Searches for view with a given "selected" state

Shorthand selector for text

If you want to use the text selector, you can use the following shorthand:

- tapOn: Text # or any other command that works with selectors

Relative position selectors

Apart from the selectors mentioned above, Maestro is also able to select views using their relative position (i.e. "below another view", or "contains child"):

- tapOn: # or any other command that works with selectors
    below: View above that has this text       # matches a view *above* that has the given text
    above:
        id: view_below_id                      # matches a view *below* that has the given id
    leftOf: View to the right has this text
    rightOf: View to the left has this text
    containsChild: Text in a child view        # matches a view that has a *direct* child view with the given text
    childOf:                                   # matches a view that is a child of a view with id "buy-now"
        id: buy-now
    containsDescendants:                       # matches a view that has all the descendant views given below
        - id: title_id
          text: A descendant view has id "title_id" and this text
        - Another descendant view has this text

Selecting one view among many similar

If you have multiple views matching the same selector (i.e. many views with text Hello), use index parameter to specify which one to select exactly. For example, the following command will pick the 3rd view that has text Hello:

- tapOn:
    text: Hello
    index: 2
