This may be particularly useful when a view cannot be uniquely selected on properties such as text or R.id.

Some versions of Hamcrest make the generic typing of this a nightmare, so we have a special case for our users.

Note: isDisplayed will select views that are partially displayed (eg: the full height/width of the view is greater than the height/width of the visible rectangle). If you wish to ensure the entire rectangle this view draws is displayed to the user use isCompletelyDisplayed.

isDisplayingAtLeast

java-static fun isDisplayingAtLeast(areaPercentage: Int): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher which accepts a view so long as a given percentage of that view's area is not obscured by any parent view and is thus visible to the user.

the matcher to apply on the child views.

a CharSequenceMatcher for the content description

withContentDescription

java-static fun withContentDescription(resourceId: Int): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a Matcher that matches Views based on content description property value.

Parameters
resourceId: Int

the resource id of the content description to match on.

withContentDescription

java-static fun withContentDescription(text: String!): Matcher<View!>!

Returns an Matcher that matches Views based on content description's text value.

Parameters
text: String!

the text to match on.

withEffectiveVisibility

java-static fun withEffectiveVisibility(visibility: ViewMatchers.Visibility!): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher that matches Views that have "effective" visibility set to the given value.

Effective visibility takes into account not only the view's visibility value, but also that of its ancestors. In case of View.VISIBLE, this means that the view and all of its ancestors have visibility=VISIBLE. In case of GONE and INVISIBLE, it's the opposite - any GONE or INVISIBLE parent will make all of its children have their effective visibility.

Note: Contrary to what the name may imply, view visibility does not directly translate into whether the view is displayed on screen (use isDisplayed for that). For example, the view and all of its ancestors can have visibility=VISIBLE, but the view may need to be scrolled to in order to be actually visible to the user. Unless you're specifically targeting the visibility value with your test, use isDisplayed.

withHint

java-static fun withHint(hintText: String!): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher that matches TextView based on it's hint property value.

Note: View's sugar for withHint(is("string")).

String with the hint text to match

withHint

java-static fun withHint(resourceId: Int): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher that matches a descendant of TextView that is displaying the hint associated with the given resource id.

Parameters
resourceId: Int

the string resource the text view is expected to have as a hint.

withHint

java-static fun withHint(stringMatcher: Matcher<String!>!): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher that matches TextViews based on hint property value.

Note: View's hint property can be null, to match against it use withHint(nullValue(String.class)

Parameters
stringMatcher: Matcher<String!>!

Matcher of String with text to match

withId

java-static fun withId(id: Int): Matcher<View!>!

A matcher that matches Views based on its resource id.

Same as withId(is(int)) but attempts to look up resource name of the given id and use a R.id.myView style description with describeTo. If resource lookup is unavailable, at the time describeTo is invoked, this will print out a simple "with id: %d". If the lookup for a given id fails, "with id: %d (resource name not found)" will be returned as the description.

Note: Android resource ids are not guaranteed to be unique. You may have to pair this matcher with another one to guarantee a unique view selection.

Parameters
id: Int

the resource id.

withId

java-static fun withId(integerMatcher: Matcher<Int!>!): Matcher<View!>!

Returns a matcher that matches Views based on resource ids. Note: Android resource ids are not guaranteed to be unique. You may have to pair this matcher with another one to guarantee a unique view selection.
