Robot framework textarea

Question

In robot framework how can I change line in textarea that text comes to new line . Now I have the following code:

: FOR    ${INDEX}    IN RANGE    1    10
    \    Input Text       id=edit-message     TestMessage\n

but now "TestMessage" writes on the previous one

Thanks!

Answer 1

It is typical to first fetch the value, then concatenate what you want added and then to overwrite the field with the new value.

: FOR    ${INDEX}    IN RANGE    1    10
\    ${textvalue}     Get Text       id=edit-message         
\    Input Text       id=edit-message     ${textvalue}\nTestMessage

Try like this. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tWcdWLSy0zFTgVpiucOgVnScJJ0rX8SY/view?usp=sharing

Insert the $ {INDEX} index of the for loop into the input text locator to change the line and write to it.
