How to get entered text from a textbox in selenium

问题:

I enter a value in TextBox or a Combobox, and would like to retrieve the value I have just entered. I see that Selenium Weblement method 'getText()' doesnt retrieve the value, it seems the entered text doesn't get pushed into DOM.

Any Solutions ?

回答1:

The getText() method is for retrieving a text node between element tags for example:

<p>Something</p>

getText() will return "Something"

In a textbox typed text goes into the value attribute so you can try something like:

findElement(By.id("someid")).getAttribute("value");

ComboBox is a bit different. But if you're using the Select object you can use the method:

Select selectItem = new Select(findElement(By.id("someid")));
selectItem.getFirstSelectedOption().getText();

Try getValue if it is a Text Field or Dropdown box

String lastname=selenium.getValue("//*[@id='lastName']");
System.out.println(lastname);
