Difference in Xpaths in version 8.0 vs version 9.0

[navya28]

Hello Support,

Are the xpaths different for iOS version 8.0 vs version 9.0 for the iOS Simulator.
Some of the accessibility labels are missing in version 9.0.
Can you suggest me any solution for this.
I did try to add accessibility labels in the ranorex project but could not make it work reliably.

Thanks

Hi,

As far as I remember, there has been done a lot of optimization and cleanup in iOS9, so changed xpaths could very well be a side effect of this optimization effort? Anyway, it would be helpful if you could post a Ranorex snapshot of the same problematic element, taken from iOS8 and iOS9.

Hello Support,

I upgraded to xcode 7.1 and added the accessibility labels in RxBrowser project. It seems to work fine now.
I can see the accessibility labels.

Thank you

Hello Support,

The accessibility labels are not consistent. Sometimes, I see the labels while other times I dont. I am attaching the snapshots.

Thanks

Hi navya28,

Unfortunately we are not aware of such an issue. Our QA department tested several applications (inclusive our RxBrowser project) on different iOS versions and in all scenarios the AccessibleLable was set correct.
May I ask you if this problem also occurs on other applications?

Hello Marcus,

I tried again and I didnt see the accessibility labels in iPhone Simulator, version 9.1. This happens on both iPhone as well as iPad.

Thank you

Hi navya28,

Since we were not able to reproduce this behavior on our side I'd like to get in touch with you personal.
Therefore, please send an email to [email protected].

Thank you for your understanding.
