Create a text input

The "Enter text" action can be accessed directly from the actions menu,

or by dropping a locator in the editor

The enter text action looks like this:

‍

To enter the required text, click on the "Enter text [ ]" action.

A set of additional keys are available to simulate the keys on a keyboard.

‍

You can also enter special values when entering text.

‍

Of course, in order for your text to appear in the application being tested, the interface element on which you are performing this action must accept text input from the keyboard.

However, Agilitest will not prevent you from doing this on a wrong element, as the final operation will always depend on the reaction of your application.
