How to select random login ids

[Sukhi B]

Hey there, I have tried to search for this but no luck (do ot shoot me lol)

I have not used Selenium for a few years now, and I wondering if you could help.

Basically I need to know how to select a random login ID when i start a test, i have only used Selenium Webdriver, I do not know much about how to code via the source tab and only use the recording in firefox.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Could you elaborate what do you mean by select random login ID? Do you mean dynamic IDs?

Oh I got it, so basically you can research a little bit about data providers, and you can store all your usernames and password in an xls or something similar.

Create some data using Username and corresponding Password in excel. Read the test data from excel file by selenium webdriver code using any supported programming language such as Java, C#, Python etc.

It's not possible by using Selenium IDE. You have to use Selenium WebDriver.
