Set Secure Text

This is a pre-built Action located under the @Custom Element. The functionality of this Action in Avo Assure is to set the encrypted text on the object specified in the input value. The result is stored in the given dynamic variable for further use during test execution.

The Set Secure Text action works only when the VerifyExists action is executed in a preceding step.

Syntax

Input Value: <ObjectType>;<VisibleText>(optional);<Index>;<Encrypted text>;<abs(optional)>

Argument	Description
<ObjectType> (Required)	Provide the object type which you want to preform the set secure text operation. (e.g., text box)
<VisibleText> (Optional)	Provide the visible text associated with the object.
<Index> (Required)	Provide the position of the object you want to identify based on its sequence in the application. Note: Index start from 0.
<Encrypted text> (Required)	Provide the encrypted text which you want to write in the text box.
<abs> (Optional)	Provide the absolute XPath of the object you want to identify for this operation.

Note:

• If the last argument abs is defined, the action executes using absolute identification based on the specified absolute XPath provided in the input.

• To skip an optional input value, use an extra semicolon (;).

• The text must be encrypted using the AES encryption method. For more information, click here.

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

Argument	Description
<Dynamic Variable>(Optional);<Dynamic Variable> (Optional)	Both dynamic variable stores the status as True or False.

Example 1: Entering Secure Text into an Input Field

In this example, we are explaining how to input specified text into a targeted input field on the application interface.

• Action: Set Secure Text

• Input Value: input;;2;QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==

  • The first argument (input) specifies the object type to be identified.

  • The second argument is left blank to skip an optional value.

  • The third argument (2) specifies the index of the input field when multiple matching elements are present.

  • The fourth argument (QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==) specifies the secure text that needs to be entered into the input field.

• Output Value: {Status}

  • The result of the text entry operation is stored in the {Status} dynamic variable, with the following possible values:

    • True: If the secure text is entered successfully into the input field.

    • False: If the secure text is not entered successfully into the input field.

• Logical Explanation: The Set Secure Text action reads the identification details and text value from the Input Value column (input;;2;QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==). The action locates the matching input field based on the specified object type and index, and then enters the provided text into it. The execution result of the text entry action (True) is stored in the {Status} variable.

Example 2: Entering Secure Text into an Input Field using Optional Parameters.

In this example, we are explaining how to input specified text into a targeted input field on the application interface using the provided identification details.

• Action: Set Secure Text

• Input Value: input;Password;2;QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==

  • The first argument (input) specifies the object type to be identified.

  • The second argument (Password) specifies the visible text of the object.

  • The third argument (2) specifies the index of the input field when multiple matching elements are present.

  • The fourth argument (QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==) specifies the secure text that needs to be entered into the input field.

• Output Value: {Status}

  • The result of the text entry operation is stored in the {Status} dynamic variable, with the following possible values:

    • True: If the secure text is entered successfully into the input field.

    • False: If the secure text is not entered successfully into the input field.

• Logical Explanation: The Set Secure Text action reads the identification details and text value from the Input Value column (input;Password;2;QELEbq38v/WZzyO6XAUI==). The action locates the matching input field based on the specified object type, visible text and index, and then enters the provided text into it. The execution result of the text entry action (True) is stored in the {Status} variable.
