I am investigating to improve test engine for automating android
platform.
The test engine I developed controls UI component by the absolute
coordinate of the screen, not by its control ID.
For example, if I want to click a button "A", I can send a command to
click the button by tapping the screen by the specified coordinate.

However, if the location of the button is changed due to UI change, I
have to change my script accordingly so that it taps on the right
coordinate to press the button.

Is there any other method to control the UI component by its ID or
name, not by tapping the absolute coordinate?

For example, if I can send a command to press a button "A" by its
name, the script would press the button successfully no matter where
the button is located.
