|  | The information below concerns legacy mobile tests that work with mobile devices connected to the local computer. For new mobile tests, we recommend using the newer cloud-compatible approach. | 
Description
Use the FindFiles method to search the connected Android device or a folder on the Android device for files that match the specified pattern.
Declaration
ProgObj.FindFiles(FileMask)
| ProgObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to one of the objects listed in the Applies To section | |||
| FileMask | [in] | Required | String | |
| Result | An aqObjIterator object | |||
Applies To
The method is applied to the following objects:
Parameters
The method has the following parameter:
FileMask
Specifies the mask of the files to search for. A mask can include the * and ? wildcard characters. An asterisk corresponds to a string of any length, a question mark - to any single character.
The mask is case-sensitive.
Result Value
The aqObjIterator objects whose items are AndroidFile objects that store information about the matching files.
To get information on individual files, you can call the iterator’s Next and Item methods and use the properties of the returned AndroidFile object.
Example
The sample code below demonstrates how to search the system/app folder on the connected Android device for all .apk files and posts the names of the found files to the test log:
JavaScript, JScript
function Test()
{
  var fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager;
  var apkFiles = fileSystemManager.FindFiles("system/app/*.apk");
  if (apkFiles.Count > 0)
  {
    while (apkFiles.HasNext())
    {
      var apkFile = apkFiles.Next();
      Log.Message(apkFile.Name);
    }
  }
  else
    Log.Warning("No files were found.");
}
				
Python
def Test():
  fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager
  apkFiles = fileSystemManager.FindFiles("system/app/*.apk")
  if apkFiles.Count > 0:
    while apkFiles.HasNext:
      apkFile = apkFiles.Next
      Log.Message(apkFile.Name)
  else:
    Log.Warning("No files were found.")VBScript
Sub Test
  Set fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager
  Set apkFiles = fileSystemManager.FindFiles("system/app/*.apk")
  If apkFiles.Count > 0 Then
    While apkFiles.HasNext
      Set apkFile = apkFiles.Next
      Log.Message(apkFile.Name)
    Wend
  Else
    Log.Warning("No files were found.")
  End If
End Sub
DelphiScript
procedure Test();
var fileSystemManager, apkFiles, apkFile;
begin
					fileSystemManager := Mobile.Device('MyDevice').FileSystemManager;
					apkFiles := fileSystemManager.FindFiles('system/app/*.apk');
if apkFiles.Count > 0 then
  begin
    while apkFiles.HasNext do
    begin
      apkFile := apkFiles.Next;
      Log.Message(apkFile.Name);
    end;
    end
else
    Log.Warning('No files were found.');
end;
C++Script, C#Script
function Test()
{
  var fileSystemManager = Mobile["Device"]("MyDevice")["FileSystemManager"];
  var apkFiles = fileSystemManager["FindFiles"]("system/app/*.apk");
  if (apkFiles["Count"] > 0)
  {
    while (apkFiles["HasNext"]())
    {
      var apkFile = apkFiles["Next"]();
      Log["Message"](apkFile["Name"]);
    }
  }
  else
    Log["Warning"]("No files were found.");
}
