Automation - Bluestacks Apps


Recommended Posts

Dear Members,

I'm looking for help with automating applications in the Android Emulator called Bluestacks.

There are a few apps I like to make small automation for to speed up my workflow since I'm disabled. I tried a few things also noted from a previous topic but that did not work because when you use the info window tool, it simply does not show any button info.

They said the controls would be made in some other language so a work around was needed.

Apps I'd like to start automation with is Fancy / Ted / Flipboard

Just simply go to location A > Click button > Wait > click button > Click button A if available , if not press B (imagesearch?)

hope this is clear if not let's start from the beginning please as I'm new to AutoIt.

All,

The OP and I have had a longish conversation about this and I am satisfied that this is a reasonable request. His earlier thread about automating a game on this platform was, I believe, merely an example for testing and the apps mentioned above are perfectly acceptable. Please feel free to help if you can. :)

Doubt if this is done from remote language to an android emulator

But in the end you have to reach

http://developer.android.com/tools/help/uiautomator/index.html

seems not to be easy

This project seems to be doing something

This seems nice but I don't know where to start with it. Also the third link I have no idea to use that, could you explain?
