831667 - [Keyboard] Long press -> swipe/drag and drop

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, defect)

Description

[Walter Chen[:ypwalter][:wachen]]

After long press on keyboard, there would be a list. 
However, we are not able to swipe to select before releasing of press.
There should be a method to select it. Otherwise, there won't be a method to test the keyboard

Issue repros.  When pressing on a button for a couple seconds it should pop up with special characters associated with that letter however no characters show up.  Issue repros on build Id 20130208070201 Dec 5th Kernel

Lukas Blakk,
This is kind of a different issue as far as I think.

Bug 831666 is describing about the focus on list doesn't appear.
However, this one is describing the issue of not having a function to do swipe/drag&drop selecting on the list.

If this is a test only fix please go ahead with fixing/landing without approval until Mar 15, after that approval-mozilla-b2g18 request is needed with risk assessment.

with action chains, we now have support for this. I have verified it using:

# in the keyboard frame
keys = m.find_elements("class name", "keyboard-key")
a = keys[10]
actions = Actions(m)
actions.press(a).wait(5).move_by_offset(10,10).move_by_offset(10,10).release().perform()

And this opens up the special character menu on the letter 'a' and selects the 2nd special character option
