Specify the ID in the <include>

<include layout="@layout/test" android:id="@+id/test1" /> 

Then use two findViewById to access fields in the layout

in Java:

View test1View = findViewById(R.id.test1); TextView test1TextView = (TextView) test1View.findViewById(R.id.text); 

or in Kotlin:

val test1TextView = test1.text 

Using that approach, you can access any field in any include you have.

Specify the ID in the <include>

<include layout="@layout/test" android:id="@+id/test1" />

Edit:

@Zlatko: "If the layout that us included is using merge, this will not help. But in case where merge is not used, this works."
