is accessibilityLabel supported(e2e test with appium) about react-native-toast-notifications HOT 3 OPEN

Update: I managed to identify the text on toast message with appium OCR plugin, but it's a little overkill

   // only if we can find the toast element by its accessibilityLabel like we do for username and password

    // const message = await $('~toastMessage').getText();
    // expect(message).toBe('Wrong ID or Password');

    // workaround: use ocr to take a screenshot and recognize the text
    await driver.ocrWaitForTextDisplayed('Wrong ID or Password', {
      androidRectangles: {
        top: 1012,
        left: 259,
        right: 834,
        bottom: 1164,
      },
      timeout: 5000,
    });

Hello, thank you for your response, later I found that it's a general appium issue for absolutely positioned views, not a issue from your plugin.

I got it from here: https://petrlz63.medium.com/appium-tips-for-react-native-apps-d869d68921db

Avoid position=”absolute” for container's views

There is a problem that appium doesn’t see elements inside absolutely positioned views. So you can’t interact with. [Learn more](http://www.wswebcreation.nl/clicking-on-an-element-with-appium-that-cant-be-found-in-the-ui-tree/).

Also using ocr is not that bad for our app, so feel free to close this issue.
