How to assert whether a radio button is clicked or not.

[Manasa Muchchatti]

Hi,

I have to check whether a radio button is clicked or not. Depending on this selection my testcases run. If A is selected do 123,if B is selected do 764.... etc.,

So sometimes click may go wrong(due to slow scrolling.,etc), so can there be possible to find out which radiobutton clicked and run its testcases,rather than failing it every time.


Thanks

My testcase is to test Android Profile:

1.If Default is selected then in Manage profiles select wi-fi,data sync.
2.If Home is selected then in Manage profiles select Bluetooth,alarm
3.If work is selected then in Manage profiles select ....

Like this i have to enable apps,and do some settings change.

can we take screen shot and see which radio button is selected or return a radio buttons value as true if selected.

Taking screen shots,i dont like that approach as you have to take screen shot,compare it,depending on the comparision do stuff... i need a certain approach like this:

if(anyradiobutton==true)
    return indexofthatradiobutton.

The reason why I am asking is because of this comment:

Have you tried to use any of the waitFor methods before actually clicking on the radiobutton?

No.. bcs i dont see how to use this waitFor method. Is it waitForView()? u r refering to??...

[Renas Reda]

You can e.g use solo.waitForView(RadioButton.class), if there is a
text string beside the RadioButton you can wait for that instead and
use waitForText(). There are different options depending on how the
app looks.

[Manasa Muchchatti]

yes.. i can use waitForText(). But can i assert that its been checked actually? I want to know whether touch is occured or not. can that be possible.

[Renas]

You can by using: solo.isRadioButtonChecked(). But my point is, if you expect it to be clicked then it is important that the test case is set up in a way that it is for sure clicked.
