How do I click on specify recyclerview on androidx.test.espresso?

Issue

I have problem to click on specify recylcer view here my code, it still error

Espresso.onView(withId(R.id.recyclerLastMatchlist))
    .perform(RecyclerViewActions.actionOnItemAtPosition<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>(1, ViewActions.click()))

This is the dependency

androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.1.0'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test:runner:1.1.0'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test:rules:1.1.0'


androidTestImplementation("com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:2.2.2") {
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'appcompat-v7'
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v4'
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'design'
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'recyclerview-v7'
}

Solution

Based on your dependencies in your gradle, it looks like your app is using com.android.support, not androidx. If that's the case, you're getting NoViewMatchException because your test is trying to perform an action on androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView instead of android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView, which is apparently different.

So try replacing your dependencies:

//androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.1.0'
//androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test:runner:1.1.0'
//androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test:rules:1.1.0'

androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:rules:1.0.2'
