Changing Keys to SetText in Keyword test
Hi there, Is it possible to change Operation = Keys to SetText in a Keyword test? Also, what is the easiest way to keep up with lable changes in a website so that your scripts can stay up to date...
Well, yes. SetText will do it all at once, "setting" the value. Keys emulates someone actually typing the value in, thus the one character at a time.
I've had it happen before with SetText that the text is visible in the field but it wasn't being saved, so I would switch to Keys.
I do use both in some cases, the problem I run into is that depending which one I use it might populate the field all at once or type one letter at a time.
