My iOS app has a log-in page with username and password textfields. These text fields are in a web view. I am trying to automate the log-in process with

UIAutomation

.
I know that working with content in a web view with

UIAutomation

is
tricky. I am able to tap into the text fields using

target.tap({x:100,
y:200});

but I want to have

UIAutomation

enter
text after the field has been tapped. How can I achieve this?

You can do something like:

Get the reference to the webview

var webView=window.scrollViews()[0].webViews()[0];

Tap the textView that you want to edit:

webView.textFields()[0].tap();

Use the keyboard

UIATarget.localTarget().frontMostApp().keyboard().typeString("text");

You can use:

webView.logElementTree()

to
find out your webview.

This works. It's how I do it, although I have my own little framework to make it easier. – Nick

One important caveat - you need to make sure you disable the hardware keyboard, or the software keyboard will never
show up Hardware ➜ Keyboard ➜ Connect Hardware Keyboard (Toggle to OFF) Also, I seem to need a delay between the tap() and typeString() – stephan.com Feb

Yes this is quite possible but instead of going through the position of the text field, I'd suggest going through the id/name of the text field. Another approach is to traverse the application window.

Try following this apple's documentation - http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/InstrumentsUserGuide/UsingtheAutomationInstrument/UsingtheAutomationInstrument.html

This will give you a head start and many other ideas.

I'd like to do this, but any of the methods available (such as

withName()

)
do not seem to work with textfields within UIWebView's. Any suggestions? – rdougan Jul
