I am still using AndroidViewClient version 10.5. Does the new version 10.7 implement new features as a monkey replacement and support unicodes raised on this post AndroidViewClient's device.touch() is much slower than MonkeyRunner's. Can it be fixed?

You can see the log containing the description of the changes at https://github.com/dtmilano/AndroidViewClient/commits/master.

The solutions for both problems you mentioned are in progress and the needed support is part of the changes in latest version (check for UiAutomatorHelper). Basically, UiAutomatorHelper will run as a REST server on the device and the interaction would take place through it.

  • oh that is really great, I will look closely to the codes. Basically how do you start the REST server on the device, for example via adb with a dedicated port and then use port redirection and http requests to send commands to the server ? – AbrtFus Sep 29 '15 at 05:56
  • Everything will be automatic and transparent, no manual steps involved. – Diego Torres Milano Sep 29 '15 at 14:37
  • fantastic, I am really looking forward for the uiautomator to work...for the moment I must use 2 mobile devices to reach my target, I am quite sure with the uiautomator I will need only 1 mobile device to reach the same target, in the long it will spare money, so you can imagine the importance of the speed for such cases :) – AbrtFus Sep 29 '15 at 16:26
