First time poster, and newbie when it comes to selenium. Thanks for anyone’s help!
I have a drop down menu with the name “JOE M SMITH”, and a CSV file with three columns “JOE”, “SMITH” and “JOE SMITH” – yet I am unable to select the correct name because it is not the exact same value on the list.
Two possible solutions I am thinking of, but I do not have enough understanding of Kantu to make it work properly.
(1)
If I’m manually entering JOE, I get the correct individual highlighted,I can click on the name and it works fine. Note, I can’t use the type command. I get the error. "run command: element found is neither input nor textarea
Anyway I can make this work? I rather not use this solution because in the future we might have another “JOE” on the drop down.
(2)
Could I adjust my variable so
If ${COL3} = JOE SMITH
then
var joe_smith = “JOE M SMITH”
then I can use joe_smith as my variable to select the correct item in a drop down menu.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
