How to verify the limit of characters of a textbox

[ritika ritu]

I have to verify a textbox limit.Can anyone tell me how to check the limit of a textbox in selenium

[sunny sachdeva]

If you already know the char limit, then input the text which is more than the permissible limit. For ex if max char limit is 30 then send a text with 31 and then fetch the text and count the number of character. It should be 30

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Sunny

Consider the limit is 30 char. The code should be following:

driver.findElement(By.id("textfieldID")).sendKeys("RiponAlWasim_RiponAlWasim_RiponAlWasim_RiponAlWasim_RiponAlWasim");//input should be greater than 30 chars

int actualLimit = driver.findElement(By.id("textfieldID")).getText().length();

assertEquals(actualLimit, 30);

br,

Ripon

What the actual f*** dude.

Do you know how to code? 

And you need to change the ID too, of course. He only gave an example as ID, he doesnt even know what the ID of your actual website is. 

The website that you are testing doesnt use the example-ID that he used in his code example.

They are called "name", "org", etc.

Mercious, author of the post is not dude instead dudette.

Ritu- If your developer has set maxlength property on the input then one line of code should be enough to check the length.
_WebDriver.findElement(By.id("IdOfTheControl")).getAttribute("maxlength").equals("ExpectedLength")

It's for people that want to learn. "Please sponfeed me the solution!!!" is not learning.

Trying to use Selenium whilst havent not even basic programming knowledge is simply not going to lead anywhere productive. 

@Kaleem

Explains.

Mercious

Please tone down your responses. The selenium core dev community have always encouraged folks in thus forum to be gentle.
If a question is irking you, feel free to ignore it.

There are no silly questions in this forum. There are only silly answers.

Lets try and help each other out than lashing out at folks!

Yes I Agree with Krishnan.

@Mercious - Buddy we are here to help each other.If you feel this is a silly question you can ignore - rather reacting in odd way you would have gave the guidance or ask the user to refer to the basics of the language and the usage of selenium (by providing a link) else you can ignore.  We are not pointing anything here to you but it should be general courtesy. Hope you will take this as a friendly advise.

@Ritu: Hope you got the answer for you question. However I would recommend you to get the knowledge on the Java and using selenium.

Let's leave this here.

Thanks,

Sri

If you don't want to give answer then ignore but don't use any words it might embarrace someone.

Thank you..
