Trim

The Trim Action in the Avo Assure found under the @Generic Element helps remove the any extra spaces existing before or after the input text. This ensures that the input is neatly formatted without unnecessary spaces.

Syntax

Input: <input string>

Argument
Description

input string

It is a set of text or characters used in the input value field

Output: <Dynamic Variable>;<Dynamic Variable>(Optional)

Usecase/Example

Scenario: Handling unrequired space in credentials field

When testing a login form, extra spaces before or after inputted credentials, like passwords, may cause login failures even if the credentials are correct.

Input

During automation testing, the test script is executed when the user inputs data as:

“ Password@123 ” (with leading and trailing spaces).

In this scenario, the trim action is used to automatically remove these unwanted spaces before submitting the credentials. This ensures that only the actual text is used, preventing unnecessary login errors caused by accidental spaces.

Expected Result

Input string needs to be stored in output variable without space.

Output

The result of Trim string is stored in the {result} output variable as “Password@123” (without space), which can be utilized for display or other purposes.
