[Android][Compose][Appium] More accessibility-friendly

I toyed compose with Appium like the below before to investigate the availability of compose in Appium.

[Android][Compose][Appium] Take a look at AndroidComposeTestRule

See https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/15138 as well.

In early April, I was not able to compose materials in the below image area, but today I was able to. For example, “send” button was not accessible, but it was available via content-description or android class names. Thus, sending a message scenario worked, yey.

I still assume that making accessible to semantics in compose as https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose/testing requires to create a new driver like Espresso for the compose, but today’s more accessibility friendly behavior was very good news for me.

[update] May 19th

According to the below tweet, the compose will be mainstream. The previous view is going to in maintenance mode.

Androidビューはメンテナンスモードです。 相互運用性レイヤーとして引き続きサポートしますが、すべての新しい開発とバグ修正はJetpackComposeに組み込まれます。 Composeは、Androidの未来の最新UIツールキットです。
