The workflow starts on an already open Android Studio. It opens the Settings dialog from the File menu, performs some actions and closes it.

Any open source Object spy can be used to find object properties. Google acess bridge explorer can be a good option to spy objects.

Such scenarios can be easily handled using Testmate and can be triggered from your existing automation via command line.

Here is the sample code for it

''Declare all the Objects
oWindow = "Pane,Name::r|.*Google Chrome"
oCombo = "ComboBox,FrameworkId::Chrome"
oSaveBase = "Button,Name::Save"
oTextFileName = "Edit,Name::File name:"
oBtnSaveFile = "Window,Name::Save As>==>Button,Name::Save"


'Reset the root and set a RToot window
'This is optional method, it improves the execution speed
Call uia.ResetRoot()
Call uia.SetRoot(oWindow)
Call uia.SearchElementBySubtree()

'Select Value from dropdown
Call SelectValueFromDD(oCombo,"PDF")
Call uia.Click(oSaveBase)

'Wait for Save As dialog  upto 20 Seconds
bSync = uia.Exist(oTextFileName,20)

'Save PDF
Call uia.SetValue(oTextFileName,"d:\test.pdf")
Call uia.Click(oBtnSaveFile)

For all those who are looking for a free option to automate desktop applications, Testmate can be of imminent help.

Testmate is a VBScript based tool that simplifies the automation process for various applications (restricting our scope to only desktop applications such as .net, win32 & WPF in this article). It also provides inbuilt reporting and other framework components like OR etc.

Please find below the step by step guide to start with after you download Testmate:

1. Setting up Testmate
2. Knowing the reserved objects
3. Create objects for desktop application
4. Create the first test case Watch the video here
5. Object Repository
6. Automate calculator without Object repository
7. Set the main window as root to increase performance

Sample application and script

Download and extract the sample code below and copy it directly under C:
(To avoid any configuration, extract as C:\Sample or else manually change the path in config.xml file)

Downloads

Then run it using testmate

Setup

1. Start a Hub on your  Windows machine (where Testmate resides)
2. Register a Mac machine as a node (from Mac machine)
3. Start Appium server on Mac machine
4. Run the below code in Testmate on Windows machine (registered as a hub)

The below code demonstrates the usage of  LoadAndRun method to invoke SetForegroundWindow method from user32.dl:

'Declare The DLL to be used
 sDLL = "user32.dll"

'Declare the returrn type - Which is boolean
 sRet = "bool"

'Declare the method string
 sDec = "static extern bool SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr hWnd)"

'Fetch the handle of the application
 hwndCalculator = Native.GetHandleByCaption("Calculator")

'Declare the Method string
 sFunc = "SetForegroundWindow((IntPtr)" & hwndCalculator &" )"

'Run the method from the DLL
 Call dll.LoadAndRun(sDLL,sRet,sDec,sFunc)

All the available DLL's and methods can be found here.
