How to automate PIN Pad

[Adejumo Yusuf]

I ran into another issue, just believe you will help me out.

I was trying to automate a site but got stuck in the PIN pad area.

When I clicked on the PIN input element, the element is in read only mode and can only accept value via mouse click. Note that the position of numbers on the PIN Pad changes at every refresh.

driver.findElement(By.id("confirmPin").sendKeys("1234"); 

Didn't work. Any way out.

Regards.

Is the site public? So we can take a look at the problem?

I would ask whether the PIN pad is a single element/image, or whether the buttons are individual images. If you can accurately define the buttons as individual elements (in XPath/CSS) regardless of their actual position, you can manipulate them with Selenium. If it's Flash, you're out of luck & need Flash support.

@David Thanks,

It's a public website, here is the link: www.mypaga.com

The Login detail are as follow:

username: ibile

security Question: 4

Password: ibile4live

PIN: 1234

Just do any transaction like money transfer. You can also provide number(08036962666), amount(1000), Recipient's name(John Bull) and hit go button the the PIN Pad pops up. Remember that the position of numbers on the pad changes randomly.

Once again thanks for your assistant.

Cheers.

This looks like a virtual keypad as seen here : https://www.citibank.co.in/ibank/login/IQPin1.jsp

The keypad is specifically constructed so that even if a user's machine did have some keystroke recorder, it would still not know what keys were pressed because the layout keeps changing.

I believe you are better off in talking to your dev folks and trying to get them to put in a back door entry in your test environment to get past this problem and perhaps use javascript to set values for this field alone.

Thanks & Regards
