Public constructors

TypeTextAction

TypeTextAction(stringToBeTyped: String!)

Constructs TypeTextAction with given string. If the string is empty it results in no-op (nothing is typed). By default this action sends a tap event to the center of the view to attain focus before typing.

Parameters
`stringToBeTyped: String!`	String To be typed by `TypeTextAction`

TypeTextAction

@RemoteMsgConstructor
TypeTextAction(stringToBeTyped: String!, tapToFocus: Boolean)

Constructs TypeTextAction with given string. If the string is empty it results in no-op (nothing is typed).

Parameters
`stringToBeTyped: String!`	String To be typed by `TypeTextAction`
`tapToFocus: Boolean`	indicates whether a tap should be sent to the underlying view before typing.

TypeTextAction

TypeTextAction(
    stringToBeTyped: String!,
    tapToFocus: Boolean,
    clickAction: GeneralClickAction!
)

Constructs TypeTextAction with given string. If the string is empty it results in no-op (nothing is typed).

Parameters
`stringToBeTyped: String!`	String To be typed by `TypeTextAction`
`tapToFocus: Boolean`	indicates whether a tap should be sent to the underlying view before typing.
`clickAction: GeneralClickAction!`	the click action instance to use when tapping to focus. Can be `null` if `tapToFocus` is false. If `tapToFocus` is true but no `clickAction` is specified, a default click action will be used for tapping.

Public functions

getConstraints

fun getConstraints(): Matcher<View!>!

A mechanism for ViewActions to specify what type of views they can operate on.

A ViewAction can demand that the view passed to perform meets certain constraints. For example it may want to ensure the view is already in the viewable physical screen of the device or is of a certain type.

Returns
`Matcher<View!>!`	a `Matcher` that will be tested prior to calling perform.

getDescription

fun getDescription(): String!

Returns a description of the view action. The description should not be overly long and should fit nicely in a sentence like: "performing %description% action on view with id ..."

perform

fun perform(uiController: UiController!, view: View!): Unit

Performs this action on the given view.

Parameters
`uiController: UiController!`	the controller to use to interact with the UI.
`view: View!`	the view to act upon. never null.
