Sub-menu not displayed when clicking menu item about robotium HOT 8 CLOSED

Thanks for this issue. Can you please further explain what is wrong? When you do a clickOnText("Channels") does you application show a text that says "Pick a channel"? Is the problem that nothing happens when using clickOnText("Channels")?

Sorry, I somehow forgot to put the actual behaviour!

Basically nothing happens in the emulator. The submenu is not displayed, and the searchText never returns so my test hangs.

I'm new to Robotium, so this may be an user issue. Have you successfully interacted with submenus?

Can you get anything to work? Or nothing at all happens when using the various Robotium methods? It seems as if this is a configuration problem. Have you tried to install and use the example test project from our getting started page?

@dave.hunt: Maybe what you were trying is something along the lines of:

solo.clickOnMenuItem("Channels");
assertTrue(solo.searchText("Pick a channel"));

or

solo.clickOnMenuItem("More");//be careful, depends on your locale
solo.clickOnText("Channels");
assertTrue(solo.searchText("Pick a channel"));

Perhaps this will give you some insight into if this is actually a Robotium bug or not. The searchText hanging sounds like one, though it can take a really long time to stop looking (1 minute even).

Do you have cases where searchText() takes 1 minute to stop looking? I would really like to see that because that is definitely a bug. I am planning on releasing a maintenance release of Robotium soon and want to have as many bugs as possible fixed by then.

Sorry for the lack of response on this - I haven't had a moment to return to the Android testing. You can probably ignore this issue until either I can provide further details or evidence, or somebody else experiences it.
