Still relevant

@guyca, what happens when you match the view you're trying to swipe (the offscreen side menu)?

[guyca]

IIRC, We're matching against the root view, not against an offscreen view.

[rotemmiz]

Espresso will only interact with the matched view, the root view is not swipeable, therefore nothing will move when trying to swipe it.

[guyca]

Alright, how do you suggest we simulate swiping on the screen to open a side menu?

[rotemmiz]

Try matching the view you want to interact with. If it doesn't work, we may need to play a bit with espresso's assertions on the view's visibility (only interact when view is 75% visible)
