This is a starting part of xml.When i test in appium inspector .tableViews()[1].cells() i get the rows.But when i do it through python appium client , i get an element which has visiblity as false and size location 0.I have checked the xpath version of it online and it works fine but the same in python client fails.Does anybody have any idea on this?

P.S

The strange part is if i try .tableViews()[1].cells()[1].staticTexts() it works fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I also know that the xml is dynamic and changing but we not using xpath so it shouldnt matter i guess.

Can call with index if key_name is None or non-Unique ! NameSpace is unique definition if talking about python dictionaries – Horrible
@Horrible i didnt get you – Dugger
a = {"b" : "1", "b" : "2"} how to call second value ? a["b"][1] equal to .tableViews()[1].cells()[1].staticTexts(), need all key are unique otherwise only work with index ! is clear ? Of course Python returned last element but returned a list if searching under iterator. So short information : your module work with searching result if got more than one results. Check your module source(appium), on "webdriver.py" include a from selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement import WebElement as SeleniumWebElement – Horrible
And got find_elements by what ? id/class etc. ? id returned single element but class returned a list. Check your XML file and count <UIAWindow name="" elements. – Horrible
Try to use xpath with properties. Using indexes can be a problem – Pitch

Avoiding dup keys, as dsgdfg suggests, will improve the reliability of finding required elements.
