How to select image from image Gallery in android

[rakesh...@tudip.com]

I am trying to get an image from image gallery using Appium and selenium webdriver. I am trying to get it using xpath by //ImageView[@id="someId"][1] and by //GridView[@id="someId"]//ImageView[@id="someId"][1]. But unable to get image from gallery. Is there another way to select image from android gallery?

Uiautomator cannot select the thumbnails in Gallery.  So you have to do some clever indirect calculation to figure out the coordinates of the center of the thumbnail to be selected.  Then you long-tap on that coordinates.  :)

@andrew,

Thanks for your reply. Actually ImageView is shown in GridView. Can't I select Image from GridView too?
