Click on not fully visible imageButton with Espresso

Question

I have a custom ImageButton that is not fully visible, by design, so when I perform a click action I get this error:

android.support.test.espresso.P

None of the above worked for me. Here is a custom matcher that completely removes that constraint and allows you to click on the view

 onView(withId(yourID)).check(matches(allOf( isEnabled(), isClickable()))).perform(
            new ViewAction() {
                @Override
                public Matcher getConstraints() {
                    return ViewMatchers.isEnabled(); // no constraints, they are checked above
                }

                @Override
                public String getDescription() {
                    return "click plus button";
                }

                @Override
                public void perform(UiController uiController, View view) {
                    view.performClick();
                }
            }
    );
