Click on button “Device screenshot”
A screen capture and a dump of view hierarchy appears on the screen
On screenshot (left), you can select the element for which you want to retrieve information and find it on the right:
In this case, the tab “Actu” have the field ‘text’ set with ‘Actu’. So in GDSL we can search the text Actu to find this tab (if there is no other element with the same text in the screen).
Each element of a view can be retrieve by field ‘text’, ‘resource-id’, ‘class’ or ‘content-desc’. GDSL commands are made to find an element by searching on this field
clickById,exampleid : click on an element which have exampleid in resource-id field
