sendKeyStrategy - is it possible to apply a different strategy for each sendKeys?

See original GitHub issue

I use sendKeyStrategy - setValue throughout the app, but there is a single field that does not play nice with it (but works fine with OneByOne).

Is it possible to use SetValue throughout the test but switch to OneByOne for specific instances of sendKeys?

Logs and code below:

in my capabilities i have



capabilities.setCapability("sendKeyStrategy","setValue");

code that fails is below:

WebElement loginField = driver.findElement(MobileBy.IosUIAutomation("target.frontMostApp().mainWindow().scrollViews()[0].elements()["loginField"].textFields()[0];"));

loginField.click();
loginField.sendKeys(username);
