)
I have two input fields one after another. I have selected the same attributes to find these objects, but for some reason only the second one sets text (it fails on the first one). The error says the object is null, but the object is defined in the test case as the text input field (very similar to the second line just named differently).
Am I missing something else? Everything looks identical to me when comparing the two objects.
The script is very simple:
Go to product page
enter text on two lines
select other variables
add to cart
any help is appreciated. Thanks!
