Working With Android Toggle Button Controls

Applies to TestComplete 14.0, last modified on January 23, 2019

Toggle button (ToggleButton) controls are used to provide a user with an option that can be on or off. A user can touch the toggle button to change its state. TestComplete provides extended support for Android toggle button controls.

TestComplete analyzes the control class names and automatically creates wrapper Android ToggleButton test objects for toggle button controls. These objects contain specific methods and properties for simulating user actions on toggle buttons and for retrieving their data.

Supported toggle button classes are listed in the project’s Object Mapping options. You can extend this list, for example, add the class name of a custom toggle button control used in your tested application, and thus enable the recording and scripting support for this control. For more information, see Default Project Properties - Object Mapping Options.

Note: The described support is available only if the tested Android application is Open, that is, if it was prepared for TestComplete (see Instrumenting Android Applications - Overview).

The topics in this section provide detailed information about working with toggle button controls in TestComplete and contain script samples that illustrate the explanation.
