Hi, Is there is any way to clear text from input fields in web?

You can set the value ‘’ to the input object with the Keyword “Set Text” and the input will raplace the new value to the old one.

Hi, I need to check backspace functionality in the text field, please give solution for this?

In that case you can send a the backspace key to the input. 1.- Add a new “Web UI Keyword” 2.- Choose the keyword “Send Keys” 3.- Doubleclick on the object column and find the object that you want to send the key (they original value to your object is null) 4.- Doubleclick on the Input column. …

WebUI.sendKeys(findTestObject(‘Object location’), Keys.chord(Keys.BACK_SPACE)), clears only a single character, is there any way to clear the string?

WebUI.sendKeys(findTestObject(‘Object location’), Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, ‘a’)) WebUI.sendKeys(findTestObject(‘Object location’), Keys.chord(Keys.BACK_SPACE)) This works for me, imitates “select all” and “delete” commands…

ariba_s4katalon said: use WebUI.clearText() WebUI.clearText() really exist ? I can find Mobile.clearText() but strangely not WebUI.clearText() …

WebUI.clearText() doesn’t work in MacOSX for webelement : //input[@type = ‘number’ and @name = ‘length’] Have tried Command+A using Keys.chord and it doesn’t work either. Surprisingly,everything works in Windows.

A built-in keyword

WebUI.clearText(TestObject)

is available. It works just as the art of sendKeys. But unfortunately it is not documented, so nobody knows.
