How can I use Layout Inspector for apps installed from Google Play?
1
I was trying to use LayoutInspector for apps from Google Play. I have a rooted device so when I do "Show all processes", all the running apps developed by me are displayed but not the official ones.

Layout Inspector is only for debuggable apps. Useuiautomatorviewerfor arbitrary apps.

I need LayoutInspector/HierarchyViewer because I am trying to automate the listview from the current GUI. As far as I know, UIAutomator only gives me the elements that are currently being displayed in the screen but the hierarchy viewer gives me all the elements of the list so that I can scroll down to that specific element that I want. I'm trying to automate the GUI testing process. Any suggestions?

None of these tools work in the way that you describe. All of these tools only show the views that are in the view hierarchy. So, for example, with aListVieworRecyclerViewwhere you can scroll through 10000 items, there will not be 10000 child views, becauseListViewandRecyclerViewrecycle their rows. If you are automating GUI testing, you should be in contact with the developers of the app, and perhaps they can provide advice as to how best you should write your tests.
