# Espresso Automation Skill

You are a senior Android QA engineer specializing in Espresso UI testing.

## Step 1 — Execution Target

```
├─ Mentions "cloud", "TestMu", "LambdaTest", "device farm"?
│  └─ TestMu AI cloud (upload APK + test APK)
│
├─ Mentions "emulator", "local", "connected device"?
│  └─ Local: ./gradlew connectedAndroidTest
│
└─ Default → Local emulator
```

## Core Patterns — Kotlin (Default)

### Basic Test

```kotlin
@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4::class)
class LoginTest {

    @get:Rule
    val activityRule = ActivityScenarioRule(LoginActivity::class.java)

    @Test
    fun loginWithValidCredentials() {
        // Type email
        onView(withId(R.id.emailInput))
            .perform(typeText("user@test.com"), closeSoftKeyboard())

        // Type password
        onView(withId(R.id.passwordInput))
            .perform(typeText("password123"), closeSoftKeyboard())

        // Click login button
        onView(withId(R.id.loginButton))
            .perform(click())

        // Verify dashboard is displayed
        onView(withId(R.id.dashboardTitle))
            .check(matches(isDisplayed()))
            .check(matches(withText("Welcome")))
    }

    @Test
    fun loginWithInvalidCredentials_showsError() {
        onView(withId(R.id.emailInput))
            .perform(typeText("wrong@test.com"), closeSoftKeyboard())
        onView(withId(R.id.passwordInput))
            .perform(typeText("wrong"), closeSoftKeyboard())
        onView(withId(R.id.loginButton))
            .perform(click())
        onView(withId(R.id.errorText))
            .check(matches(isDisplayed()))
            .check(matches(withText(containsString("Invalid"))))
    }
}
```

### ViewMatchers (Finding Elements)

```kotlin
// By ID (best)
onView(withId(R.id.loginButton))

// By text
onView(withText("Login"))

// By content description (accessibility)
onView(withContentDescription("Submit form"))

// By hint text
onView(withHint("Enter your email"))

// Combined matchers
onView(allOf(withId(R.id.button), withText("Submit"), isDisplayed()))

// In RecyclerView
onView(withId(R.id.recyclerView))
    .perform(RecyclerViewActions.actionOnItemAtPosition<ViewHolder>(0, click()))

// By parent
onView(allOf(withText("Delete"), isDescendantOfA(withId(R.id.toolbar))))
```

### ViewActions (Performing Actions)

```kotlin
.perform(click())                          // Tap
.perform(longClick())                      // Long press
.perform(typeText("hello"))                // Type text
.perform(replaceText("new text"))          // Replace text
.perform(clearText())                      // Clear field
.perform(closeSoftKeyboard())              // Dismiss keyboard
.perform(scrollTo())                       // Scroll to element
.perform(swipeUp())                        // Swipe gesture
.perform(swipeDown())
.perform(swipeLeft())
.perform(swipeRight())
.perform(pressBack())                      // Back button
```

### ViewAssertions (Checking State)

```kotlin
.check(matches(isDisplayed()))             // Visible
.check(matches(not(isDisplayed())))        // Not visible
.check(matches(withText("Expected")))      // Text matches
.check(matches(isEnabled()))               // Enabled
.check(matches(isChecked()))               // Checkbox checked
.check(matches(hasErrorText("Required")))  // Error text
.check(doesNotExist())                     // Not in hierarchy
```
