I am trying to set input text to this selector. Its giving me error.

The line of code looks like this: Mobile.setText(findTestObject(‘Object Repository/Android Sanity/QuikPay/expiryDate’), ‘December-2025’, GlobalVariable.TIMEOUT_SHORT)

Are you sure it is possible to input text manually? It doesn’t seem like a text input to me, more like a scroll up-down thingy. Of course, it is hard to tell without the app code.

Yes it is a input text field. This is the object. Please see the expiry date field.

You are missing timeout parameter for set text keyword. Please visit this document for more details: https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/mobile-set-text.html#description

Mobile.setText(findTestObject('Application/Graphics/android.widget.TextView - Xfermodes'),'Your text here', 10)
