In my application, I want to change the screen orientation and perform a click action on the button using Espresso.

I have tried all the solution mentioned over the internet, but nothing works. It's not changing the screen orientation. Can someone help me?

This is what I have tried:

ComposePageObject.clickComposeButton();
mActivityRule.getActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT); Thread.sleep(5000);

Do I need to create any custom class for this?

  • You should give more details and code templates, like which things you have tried – Hardik Chauhan Aug 05 '19 at 10:49

You can use

androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.uiautomator:uiautomator-v18:2.1.3'

and with this library, write some code in your test

UiDevice device = UiDevice.getInstance(getInstrumentation());
device.setOrientationLeft();

Check lib more, there is some other options for changing orientation
