1# UIAutomator Snippet Example 2 3The UiAutomator API, which allows developers to automate UI interactions on an 4Android device, is now available in Python on 5[google/snippet-uiautomator](https://github.com/google/snippet-uiautomator). 6This makes it possible for developers to use UiAutomator in Mobly tests without 7having to write Java. 8 9The `snippet-uiautomator` package is a wrapper around the AndroidX UiAutomator 10APIs. It provides a Pythonic interface for interacting with Android UI elements, 11such as finding and clicking on buttons, entering text into fields, and 12scrolling through lists. 13 14To use the `snippet-uiautomator` package, developers simply need to install it 15from PyPI and import it into their Python code. Once imported, they can use the 16package's API to automate any UI interaction. 17 18Here is an example of how to use the `snippet-uiautomator` package to automate a 19simple UI interaction: 20 21```Python 22from mobly.controllers import android_device 23from snippet_uiautomator import uiautomator 24 25# Connect to an Android device. 26ad = android_device.AndroidDevice(serial) 27 28# Load UiAutomator service. 29uiautomator.load_uiautomator_service(ad) 30 31# Find the "Login" button. 32button = ad.ui(res='com.example.app:id/login_button') 33 34# Click on the button. 35button.click() 36``` 37
