An incorrect input value

[cmal]

In creating scripts, if a user does not put data or incorrectly inputs characters in a "mandatory" field, a user will not get an error but the text box will highlight.

How can eValid be used to validate this error?

[eValid]

When the local processing in the browser displays an error by changing the color of a field, that will have been done by changing a value in the underlying DOM.

So the test for this case -- intended to confirm that an incorrect input value is sensed and reported goes like this:

a) get to the right page

b) feed in the incorrect value

c) Maybe you have to refresh the page? But sometimes this is not needed.

c) use "ValidateSelectedObjProperty" to confirm that the correct value for that property is present.

You may need to use the PageMap to find the index and property name to use in scripting this command into your test.
