Winappdriver: Driver does not allow properly work with ComboBox

[AlexKovalnogov]

When I have tried to create some test that select item in ComboBox, I have found some issues
I can't :
select item from comboBox , as workaround

   public void selectItemInComboBox( By by, String name ) {
       WebElement element= getWebElement( by );
        element.sendKeys( name );
        element.sendKeys( Keys.ENTER );
    }

get amount of item that combox contains
driver.findElements( By.xpath( "//*[@AutomationId='ID']//*[@ClassName='ComboBox']//*[ClassName='ListBoxItem']") )

result =0

even if i have made click for opening combobox
click( By.xpath( "//*[@AutomationId='ID']"))

driver.findElements( By.xpath( "//*[@AutomationId='ID']//*[@ClassName='ComboBox']//*[ClassName='ListBoxItem']") )

result =0
get selected item name in combobox,

First of all you'll need to open the combo box by clicking the open button, it is a child item of the combo. Then you'll have to find all children of the combo box and go through them in a loop to see if a specific item is in there or not.
I used the code below to select a specific value in a combo box named "comboBox1".

var combo = sessionAppWinForms.FindElementByAccessibilityId("comboBox1");
var open = combo.FindElementByName("Open");
combo.SendKeys(Keys.Down);
var listItems = combo.FindElementsByTagName("ListItem");
Debug.WriteLine($"Number of list items found: {listItems.Count}");
Assert.AreEqual(6, listItems.Count);// check the expected item count is equal to actual item count
foreach (var comboKid in listItems)
{
    Debug.WriteLine(comboKid.Text);
    if (comboKid.Text == "NJ")
   {
     // select a specific combo item, same logic can be extended to do more things
     comboKid.Click();
   }
} 

This code example is taken from my course about WinAppDriver which you might see here to learn more.

The following code works for my case:

public void chooseValueFromCombobox(String control, String item) {
    WebElement combobox = getActions.getElement(control);
    try {
        combobox.click();
        WebElement comboboxItem = combobox.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@ClassName='ListBoxItem' and @Name='" + item + "']"));
        moveToElement(comboboxItem);
    } catch (WebDriverException exception) {
        exception.printStackTrace();
    }
}


private void moveToElement(WebElement element) {
    actions.moveToElement(element).click().perform();
}


protected WebElement getElement(String elementID) {
    return winDriver.findElementByAccessibilityId(elementID);
}
