appium#52 Add @FindBy annotations for appium's extra locator strategies by TikhomirovSergey · Pull Request #68 · appium/java-client

WebElement can be instantiated by these ways:

@FindBy(someStrategy) //for browser or Html UI
@AndroidFindBy(someStrategy) //for Android UI of the same application. Strategies are:
//uiAutomator, accessibility, id, name, className, tagName, xpath
//@AndroidFindBys({@AndroidFindBy(someStrategy1), @AndroidFindBy(someStrategy2)}) is for chained search

@iOSFindBy(someStrategy) //for iOS UI of the same application. Strategies are:
//uiAutomator, accessibility, id, name, className, tagName, xpath
//iOSFindBys({@iOSFindBy(someStrategy1), @iOSFindBy(someStrategy2)}) is for chained search
WebElement someElement;

or

@FindBy(someStrategy)
@AndroidFindBy(someStrategy) 
@iOSFindBy(someStrategy)
RemoteWebElement someElement;

or

@AndroidFindBy(someStrategy) 
@iOSFindBy(someStrategy)
MobileElement someElement;

Now old browser page objects can be reusable with this decorator:

PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver), 
pageObject //an instance of PageObject.class
);

or

PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver, 
          15, //default implicit waiting timeout for all strategies
        TimeUnit.SECONDS), 
            pageObject //an instance of PageObject.class
);

I made some tests. If there is not enough please add your own.
