Any example on how to work with

2. Date Picker

Thanks!

@rengarima we are testing the react-native-modal-datetime-picker in our project using by.text().

add a testID to your datepicker and then run:

    await element(by.id('datepicker')).tap();
    await element(by.text('2017')).tap();
    await element(by.text('2016')).tap();
    await expect(element(by.text('OK'))).toBeVisible();
    await element(by.text('OK')).tap();

Hope this helps!

@SMJ93 That is not a scalable solution. If you had a large range of years, such as 1901-2051 and you wanted to pick 1973, that element does not exist to be selected by text (internally, the picker view reuses views to only hold the visible views in memory).

Thanks @SMJ93 this works!

Would you have some idea for Contact Picker, I have tried searching by text, label but not sure if Detox can handle that?

Since iOS 9, all contact view controllers render in a different process. That is not supported by Detox.
