Description

On iOS, sometimes element.tap() function is not working, saying that it is impossible to tap on the element (possibly because of some other elements overlapping it) so we need a workaround for this case.

Custom tapElementByXPath function can use touchAction to tap on such elements.

A good place for such a function would be wdHelper, to allow its usage from any plugin Appium test suite.
