Hi,

I am trying to use verifyText to verify en element that contains carriages return :

Text1
Text2
Text3

I tried to set Value such as “Text1\nText2\nText3” but it doesn’t work. How can I describe carriages return in the Value field ?

Thank you for your response.

Best regards.

First, may I suggest you use double slashes in your comparison.

and you may need to set your boolean isRegex reference to true as in:
WebUI.verifyTextPresent('Text1\\nText2\\nText3', true)

Just a note that “\n” is a combo of carriage return and line feed (char(13) and char(10)). You can also try to use “\v” or “\R” or char(13) char(10).

You should use a Regular Expression with Character class \s (a whitespace character: [ \t\n\x0B\f\r]) and Quantifier * (zero or more), + (one or more).

....
WebUI.openBrowser('')
WebUI.navigateToUrl(url)

String expr = '\\s*Text1\\s+Text2\\s+Text3\\s*'

boolean result = WebUI.verifyTextPresent(
    expr,
    true, // 1st arg is Regular Expression
    FailureHandling.CONTINUE_ON_FAILURE)

WebUI.closeBrowser()
