espresso - Overslept and turned a tap into a long press

[tali...@gmail.com]

Hi,

We use espresso in our automated tests.

We have a test suite which is very flaky since we keep getting the following error while trying to click:

"Overslept and turned a tap into a long press"

Our test suite tests an activity which has multiple fragments and sometimes click on each of the fragment becomes a long click.

For now I added a rollback action but I have to say that I don't like this solution.

any other suggestions how to do it right?

Thanks,

Tali

Hi,

My workaround is to set Touch & Hold delay option in System settings -> Accessibility to Long value.

After I did this I haven't seen this issue anymore.

Hey Denys,

Were you able to set this in an automated way in your Espresso test? We're trying to do something similar but can't find a command for this setting.

Thanks!

I'd love to know the same. So far doing this only manually on created emulators and later use them in test automation. 
If you'd find the solution please post here.

One possible solution although not really the espresso way,

We actually did find a way. We run an adb script on the emulator before running the test which does this:

settings put secure long_press_timeout 1000

The default long_press_timeout is 500 ms. By increasing long press timeout to 1000, we got rid of most of our flakiness here.
