The problem

I’m facing issue with safari browser on ios simulator. Please help to fix this issue!! I tried the following ways, but no luck.

input.click();
input.clear();
Thread.sleep(1000);
input.sendKeys(username);
input.sendKeys(Keys.TAB); not working

((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("console.log(arguments[0]); $(arguments[0]).change(); return true;", input); not working

The value is sent but cleared right away.

  • Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6

  • Npm or Yarn package manager: 6.5.0

@imurchie I’m still facing the issue with mobile safari browser. Look like the input can’t be saved and wiped once cursor moved to the other field. Code is as below: input.click(); input.clear(); Thread.sleep(1000); input.sendKeys(username); input.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);

input.click(); input.clear(); Thread.sleep(1000); input.sendKeys(password); input.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);
