entering-text

entering-text is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from skydoves/android-testing-skills. It costs 213 tokens per session (3,926 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to entering and editing text in Jetpack Compose fields from UI tests. It uses the same kinds of text-field actions as a software keyboard, including typing, replacing, clearing, selecting, and submitting.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with TextField, OutlinedTextField, BasicTextField, or other editable fields to type text, replace values, set selections, clear fields, and trigger actions such as Next, Done, Search, Send, or Go.
Why use it?
It handles focus and editability checks for you, making text tests clearer and their failures easier to understand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

entering-text scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 286 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Entering Text — performTextInput, performTextReplacement, performImeAction

Compose text fields expose semantics actions for IME-style edits. The test API wraps those actions so a single call types text, replaces text, clears text, sets a selection, or fires the IME action. Every entry point auto-focuses the node when needed and asserts that the node is enabled and editable, surfacing precise errors when one of those preconditions fails.

When to use this skill

  • The test types into TextField, OutlinedTextField, BasicTextField, or any composable that exposes the InsertTextAtCursor / SetText semantics actions.
  • The test fires an IME action — ImeAction.Next to advance focus, ImeAction.Done to dismiss the keyboard, ImeAction.Search / Send / Go to trigger a form submit.
  • The test must clear an existing value, or replace the full value with new text.
  • The test asserts cursor or selection state with performTextInputSelection(TextRange(...)).

When NOT to use this skill

  • The test sends an arbitrary key shortcut into a focused field (e.g. Ctrl+A, Tab, arrow keys). Use ../injecting-mouse-and-keyboard/SKILL.md.
  • The test only checks the displayed text without typing — assert via ../../assertions/asserting-node-state-and-text/SKILL.md.
  • A finder cannot locate the text field. Verify the matcher first via ../../finders/finding-nodes-by-tag-text-content/SKILL.md.
  • The test asserts state restoration of the typed text after rotation. See ../../setup/configuring-test-dependencies/SKILL.md and StateRestorationTester.

Prerequisites

  • androidx.compose.ui:ui-test-junit4 (or ui-test for runComposeUiTest) configured per ../../setup/configuring-test-dependencies/SKILL.md.
  • The TextField carries Modifier.testTag("…") from production code so the test selects it deterministically.
  • The field is enabled = true. performTextInput calls assert(isEnabled()) before doing anything (TextActions.kt:125).
  • For performImeAction: the field declares both ImeAction != ImeAction.Default (via KeyboardOptions(imeAction = …)) and an OnImeAction handler (via KeyboardActions(...) or default keyboard actions). The action assertion checks both (TextActions.kt:99-100).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
