Description Andrey Botalov 2014-04-08 19:54:10 UTC
Take a look at https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/master/docs/gestures.md.

It provides two different API calls: swipe and flick.

It seems that flick is just a quick swipe (not sure). The spec doesn't currently provide a way to do a slow swipe.

Also both swipe and flick seem to be a different thing than a combination of tap + moveTo (not sure).

Unfortunately swipe and flick on some OSes mean the exact same thing, which allowing a "speed" may solve. This will probably be on the move() method. Still to be determined
