Hi friends, this forum has been a great help to me in the past and I'm hoping it can be once again.
BP Version: 6.10.1
Browser: Edge Version 91.0.864.48
Issue:
I'm working on a build where I interact with a web application. On this website I make selections in different dropdown menus, and in a few cases when a specific selection is made an additional dropdown menu will appear. I've spied the dropdown in "browser mode", and using the "select item" function I can get the correct value to display as selected in the menu. However, the secondary dropdown does not appear.
For testing purposes I tried Spying with UI instead getting the automation to manually clic the dropdowns and making the selection, that worked in the sense that the secondary dropdown appears, but besides being slow and clunky (which I could live with if absolutely necessary), it came with a whole other issue, when Spying with UI the unique name for the dropdowns is not captured.
Instead I would have to rely on Index to determine which menu to Interact with and since the number of menus on the page are different based on the choices made on previous pages the logic becomes extremely clunky and not 100% accurate.
Question:
Would it be possible to somehow force the website to recognize the selection made by using select item. i.e. sending a script or something like that? If so what would that look like and how would I go about it?
Thankful for any suggestion!
