public class By
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.support.test.uiautomator.By


By is a utility class which enables the creation of BySelectors in a concise manner.

Its primary function is to provide static factory methods for constructing BySelectors using a shortened syntax. For example, you would use findObject(By.text("foo")) rather than findObject(new BySelector().text("foo")) to select UI elements with the text value "foo".
