Notice that the same query is sometimes returning empty results when they ran on the same view.
Here are some of the observations that I've made:1. This only seems to happen on devices that are on Lolipop
2. This seems to more likely happen when there are animations in the background (not blocking any elements)
3. Chained queries are more likely to receive empty results compared to simpler queries (i.e. query("* marked:'test_list')
In our test runs, we would receive empty values for some queries when we are expecting values. And even when we put in wait_for's to wait until element_exist, the element may be there at the time, but when we do a touch() on the element, it could be missing at that moment, since the queries themselves are flaky in terms of giving results back.
I'm on the latest calabash-android build 0.5.8.
Has anyone experienced similar issues? Is there any way for me to debug and get more details on why this is happening?
Thanks a lot!
