(Selenium IDE) Is there a way to concatenate the results of a script into a longer string?

Ui.Vision HowTo
1

I need to generate a new random email each time I run my script. I know the script by itself works, but when I attempt to add the returned number into testaccount+<###>@gmail.com it fails. It doesn’t like my plus signs, but I’m pretty sure those are standard?

Command: execute script
Target: return {“testaccount+”+Math.floor(Math.random()*99999)+“@gmail.com”;}
Value: Var1

The error I get is: Unexpected token ‘+’

I would love it if someone could explain the correct way to do this.

See here:

{
      "Command": "executeScript",
      "Target": " return \"testaccount\" + Math.floor(Math.random()*99999).toString() + \"@gmail.com\";",
      "Value": "Var1",
      "Description": ""
    }

Selenium IDE chrome. Am I misinterpreting something you wrote?

I tested in UI Vision

I downloaded that and tested there. Same error.

Executing: | executeScript | return "testaccount" + Math.floor(Math.random()*99999).toString() + "@gmail.com";", | Var1 |

Line 8: Error in executeScript code: Invalid or unexpected token
