We are testing a ASPNET MVC Application by using Selenium.
In the Webpage they are using a Jquery Date control Textbox datepicker/#icon-trigger and that text box was in Disable mode
I am trying to send the values from selenium to webpage by using following code.
Driver.findElement(By.id("txtDOB")).sendKeys("10/10/1986");
But it was not working. it doesn't show any error.
and Now My question is how to send values to Disabled text box?
Can any one help me on this...?
Well you have two approaches here
Enable the text box and then set the field something like this:
WebElement textbox = driver.findElement(By.id("xxx"));
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].enabled = true", textbox);
I would really recommend that you script this so that it uses the date picker, in the exact same way a user would have to pick a date, as the user is not allowed to type in their own date.
If really must work around this, then you could try forcing a value into the textbox using javascript:
IWebElement textbox = driver.findElement(By.id("txtDOB"));
((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("arguments[0].value='10/10/1986'", textbox);
