find all child elements

[idan.hav]

hi all,

i'm trying to upgrade from Appium 0.16 to 1.2

i have used webElement.findElements(By.xpath("*")) in the old version to get a webElement's child elements

i understand it's not supported now, any ideas how to pull it off?

also, is there a documentation specifying the different locator strategies with the new Appium? 

all i've seen is general description and a few examples on appium.io

thanks in advance

You can use By.xpath("//*") to get all elements. This has been fixed for version 1.2.2 (releasing soon)

Are the examples on appium.io not enough? What would you like to have?

[idan.hav]

What is 1.2.2 version's release date (approximately) ?

The examples are great and are very informative, it's just that i'm new to automation and my first experience is writing test using Appium for ios using Java, so i don't have prior experience with UIAutomation or web automation so what i'm seeing in the examples constitutes 

most of my knowledge in that area. i think a comprehensive tutorial might come in handy

on the same note, are CSS selectors supported? and if so, can you please add an example for it?

Thanks for the help!

they're supported for the web context. The native context doesn't use
css so it won't work thee.
