Android Studio Espresso Test Recorder Slow

Question

I am trying to create some Espresso UI tests using Android Studio's inbuilt Espresso Test Recorder. The issue is: when I type it is very slow to appear on the screen.

Anything text entry/keyboard-based takes a while for a single letter to appear. I have tested this on a super simple one view app vs a larger app, with the larger app having an increased delay. I have also tested it on Genymotion vs Android Studio emulators, with the same delay.

Here is a gif of the delay on the single-page app:

Any idea how to fix this issue?

Answer 1

切换到较低的 API 可能会有所帮助，因为它对我有用，并且它提高了 Espresso 测试记录的速度性能。

Answer 2

You should check visualization settings in Developer settings on your device.

I'm using TestProject recorder tool for android automation. Free tool, works fast
