Get Text when the object changes

Hi,
I am using the get text property for SSN number in the application which I am automating currently. The SSN number is hid in the form xxx-xx-xxxx with a show icon beside it. When I click on the show icon the SSN is revealed 333-44-5555 where the click doesn’t load the entire page. Only the SSN is loaded by using ajax call. SO, when I am using the webui.gettext of that SSN after clicking on the icon the text captured is xxx-xx-xxxx. I am using only xpath as the SSN object property. How do I solve this?

Hello,

this should work in your case.

POC:
HTML element is defined as this:
<button type="button" id="myBtn" onclick="document.getElementById('myBtn').innerHTML = '123-456-789';">xxx-xxx-xxx</button>

Basically it changes a value after click.
And following test code works in such a case:

TestObject toHidden = new TestObject().addProperty('xpath', ConditionType.EQUALS, '//button[@id="myBtn" and text()="xxx-xxx-xxx"]')
TestObject toRevealed = new TestObject().addProperty('xpath', ConditionType.EQUALS, '//button[@id="myBtn"]')

WebUI.click(toHidden)
WebUI.waitForElementNotPresent(toHidden, 10)
println WebUI.getText(toRevealed)

Hi,
Thanks for the Reply.
This is the html which I have

xxx-xx-5555
So, this text 'xxx-xx-5555' is shown before clicking the icon and it's revealed after clicking it. Therefore for the objects of text I'm using regex matches property and i'm getting errors due to the back slash in regex.

However, i used webui.delay(2) in my code which worked.
WebUI.click(findTestObject(‘SSNEyeIcon’))
WebUI.delay(2)
SSN = WebUI.getText(findTestObject(‘SSNOrder’))
WebUI.verifyMatch(‘333-44-5556’, SSN, false)
