Can we create an user code for clicking and sending keys from on screen keyboard in android?

Hi,

I would suggest you to examine Mobile Key Press action described here...
http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... tions.html
If you want user code, then simply convert the recorded/manually added Mobile Key Press action to user code. Just right click the action in recording module and from the appeared menu select View Code or Convert to User Code.

Hi,

No, there is no support for soft-keyboard of [virtual] mobile devices, except the 11 'action-keys' that can be found under Add New Action > Mobile Key Press menu.

But you could use a combination of actions like <Set Value + mobile action key> or, on virtual device <Click on text control + key sequence + mobile action key>.

It worked for me in most of the cases (as for exceptions, I have some image based tests)

Cheers,

Hi aswinip,

Please ensure that your method for text input looks like the following

repo.App.EditText.Element.SetAttributeValue("Text", "[email protected]");

Please let me know if this solved your problem.
