How to use longpress in appium?

I had tried lots of different longpress method but it do not work currently with appium.

TouchAction action = new TouchAction();
action.longPress(webElement).release().perform();

above method do not provide duration to hold and press element.

Solution

  • To press and hold (longpress) any element, i have mentioned code below which is working perfectly.

     WebElement holdElement= driver.findElementById("element");

  AndroidTouchAction t = new AndroidTouchAction(driver);   

  t.longPress(LongPressOptions.longPressOptions()
  .withElement(ElementOption.element(holdElement))
  .withDuration(Duration.ofMillis(5000)))
  .release()
  .perform();

    here we can provide duration to press and hold element.
