Testcafe: IE11 Input Typing Problem

Created on 23 Jul 2019 · 5Comments · Source: DevExpress/testcafe

What is your Test Scenario?

Given a webpage with 2 input fields i'm trying to type text into both. Problem is presented when using IE11 on saucelabs with testcafe. Typetext only inputs text to the first of both inputs, the second time i call typeText method it doesn't seem to work correctly.

What is the Current behavior?

When using typeText method on first input (could be any of the two inputs mentioned) it types perfectly the text passed. Later when i try to switch to the other input and type text into it it refuses to type the text or even select the input requested. I tried both clicking and then typeText methods but nothing seems to work in IE11.
Taking in consideration this works without any problem on chrome and firefox it's possibly a problem fully related to IE11.

What is the Expected behavior?

typeText method should switch between these two input fields typing the correct text. Using click and then triggering the typeText method or just by using typeText method.

        await t.typeText(loginPage.passwordInput,password,{replace:true,caretPos:0,paste:true});

Hi @franciscolosardo

Thank you for the provided detail. I've reproduced the problem.

For team:
I've reproduced the problem with IE11 on Windows 10.

fixture `Fixture`
    .page('https://anypoint.mulesoft.com/login/');

test('test', async t => {
    await t
        .typeText('input[name=username]', '<username>') // need to register before
        .typeText('input[name=password]', '<password>')
        .click('[data-test-id=SignIn-Submit]');
});
