Retrieve ImageView Image in Uiautomator test case

[Armaan]

Is there a way to retrieve image view element's image from a uiautomator test case?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Since UI Automator tests live in a separate process from App Under Test, there's no direct way to access the image.

However, UI Automator do provide screenshot API (since API Level 17):

http://developer.android.com/tools/help/uiautomator/UiDevice.html#takeScreenshot(java.io.File)

If you really want to achieve this, you can take a screenshot, load the PNG, and crop it per coordinates of the ImageView; however I'd expect this to be quite slow.

Thanks,

Guang Zhu
