Text editor field NOT becoming enabled on keyword test playback?

I have a web application in which I created a keyword test (javascript) to create a new employer account. When I enter a new employer name in the 'Employer Name' field the 'Add New Employer' button becomes enabled for selection. However on the keyword test playback after the employer name is entered the 'Add New Employer' button is not becoming enabled and therefore bombing because it can't click on it.

  • Hi,

     

    I expect that keyword test enters employer's name using the .SetText() method. If this is the case, replace .SetText() with .Keys() method call and check if this helps.

        Great, thank you for the update.

         

        P.S. Change Tools | Options | Engines | Recording | Record text input into simple editors as  option to 'Keys' to prevent this problem with future recordings.
