How to get text which is not fully visible?

[Barbara JacksonParticipant]

Hello ZAP,

We use ZAPTEST for some time already.
Normally GetText method returns the visible text in the object.
However we also got a text longer than the actual text field (For example in Search text-fields).
Is there a solution to get the entire text in such text-fields?

Thanks in advance.

Hello BarbJack,

Thank you for your question.

In such case when the text is not fully revealed in teh text-field please do the following:
1. Click on the URL field
2. Send keys to browser: CTRL + C
3. Pause for 0.1 seconds, using the Wait statement.
4. In ZAPTEST use the following method to retrieve the text:
myurl = GetClipboard

P.S. To send the CTRL+C in ZAPTEST use the following code:
Application(“test”).View(“View_1”).Object(“Text-Field”).Click
Application(“test”).KeyDown 17
Application(“test”).KeyPress 67
Application(“test”).KeyUp 17

Please contact ZAP for further help.

Thanks,
Sasha
