Interactions

Here are the ways to interact with the Elements in the Browser.

Mouse​

click​

Click on an Element.

# click the button
button |> Element.click!

Keyboard​

sendKeys​

Send keys to an Element (e.g. put text into an input).

warning

Input text is not escaped for now.

Double quotes need to be escaped manually e.g. "my input \"test\""

This will probably change in the future.

# input an email into the email input
emailInput |> Element.sendKeys! "my.fake.email@fake-email.com"

Special keys sequences:

  • {enter} - simulates an "enter" key press 
    # input text and submit
    searchInput |> Element.sendKeys! "roc lang{enter}"

clear​

Clear an editable or resettable Element.

# find button element
input = browser |> Browser.findElement! (Css "#email-input")
# click the button
input |> Element.clear!
