Fetch multiple elements ($$)

[adrianna-u]

Hi,

is this possible to select multiple elements in wdi5? (Similar to wdio $$ notation and uiveri5 element.all feature)

We are using following locators in UIVeri5 and looking for a replacement

 element.all(by.control({
   controlType: 'sap.m.Title'
}))

or WDIO

get allTitles_WDIO() { return $$('.sapMTitle')}

Thanks Adrianna

hi, there's no api yet for selecting all controls of a certain type in wdi5. but i'm labelling this as enhancement/feature request - so once we can actually make a public road map (don't ask), it'll be on the dev plan

"I have a dream" - WDIO custom locator e.g. $ui5({selector:{}}) similar to $react(), then all other things (chaining, methods) will "just work"

let's see what we can do to fulfill your dreams ☁️ 😺

support

• RegEx
• id wildcard
• controlType

as criteria for a "select all"

eventually "all descendants/ancestors of" ?

just to provide an update here @adrianna-u: we've discussed different approaches and are about to prototype some. there will for sure be an implementation until ~ end of the month (Mar 22), going into the regular 0.9.0 release
