Hi Titus,
Sorry for late reply! Your code which has been given in Stackoverflow is a
good catch but you are missing the crucial point that watir
text_field.set() method doesn't includes the tab So refresh doesn't start
until it moves on to the next field.
But what happens actually is, I am writing the following code
b.text_field(:id,'insuranceAmountVO@amount').set '12121'
But this code doesn't enter the date there instead, it continue to locate
that element and keep refreshing the page continuously without an end. I
have never seen this behavior so far.
If I use this code(given below) send_keys instead of set
b.text_field(:id,'insuranceAmountVO@amount').send_keys '12121'
It appends this value with already existing value in the text field. So
it's not entering the intended data as well.
But all I want to say is, we are now using selenium using Java, it
perfectly enters the data but NOT using the below code
driver.findElement(By.id("insuranceAmountVO@amount").send_keys "12121"
but using this customized code it enters perfectly
selenium.typeAndTab "12121"
I went inside this function, but it's very huge and I couldn't figure out
what they are doing.
And I have the select_list problem too but I will create a separate
question for that. Our selenium framework selects successfully but Watir
doesn't! (I will create separate thread for that)
