var application = target.frontMostApp();
var window = application.mainWindow();
var view = window.elements()[0];
var buttons = window.buttons();

// Check for a button on screen

if (buttons.length != 1) {
UIALogger.logFail("FAIL: The button is
missing.");
} else {
UIALogger.logPass("PASS: There is a
button on the screen.");
}
// Make sure it's the button we want
var button = buttons.firstWithName("Tap Me");

if (!button || button.toString() ==

UIALogger.logFail("FAIL: The button is
missing.");
} else {

there.");
}
// Tap the button
button.tap();

// Check for the alert

var alert = application.alert();
if (!alert || alert.toString() == "[object

shown after pressing the button.");
} else {

shown after pressing the button.");
