I am not able to validate an international number text box in Selenium.
I have tried earlier by name, class and other locators but it is not inserting the value into the textbox.
Below is the text box and the corresponding HTML:
The code I am using is:
driver.findElement(By.name("phone")).sendKeys("(222)222-2222");
driver.findElement(By.id("ssn")).sendKeys("555-55-5555");
If sendkeys() methods are not working then use following two ways to input text:
Before sendkeys() use click() method to click inside textfield i.e:
driver.findElement(By.name("phone")).click();
driver.findElement(By.name("phone")).sendKeys("(222)222-2222");
driver.findElement(By.id("ssn")).click();
driver.findElement(By.id("ssn")).sendKeys("555-55-5555");
Second way is to use javascript to input text in texfields like this:
WebElement wb = driver.findElement(By.name("phone"));
JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse.executeScript("arguments[0].value='(222)222-2222';", wb);
jse.executeScript("document.getElementById('ssn').value='555-55-5555';");
Please let me know if that works for you. Webdriver provided the javscript implementation library so that we could use javascript to perform actions on browser which are not possible with with webdriver native API. And in web automation testing services we encountered many such issues where we have to go beyond webdriver native API and have to use javscript methods.
First once clear the input text fields and send the input values. Create a reference object for better use:
webElement objPh=driver.findElement(By.name("phone"));
webElement objSSN=driver.findElement(By.name("ssn"));
objPh.clear(); //To clear the phone text field
objPh.sendkeys("(222)222-2222"); // To send the input values in phone text field
objSSN.clear(); //To clear the phone ssn text field
objSSN.sendkeys("555-55-5555"); // To send the input values in ssn text field
driver.findElement(By.name("Email")).sendKeys("[email protected]");
This should work to insert values/text into Text-box input field. If not working pls cross-check below points:
If you found any of above points failing, you should try:
WaitForElement(your_element_textbox)
This method simple implemented using implicit wait to give additional time to element/text/screen/page to get loaded.
