How can I validate, using ATF, whether a specific value exists in a dropdown field?

[UTSAV KUMAR JAI]

Hello everyone,

I would like to create a test step that verifies whether a field is populated with a specific value based on the value selected in the previous field. Is there a way to implement this type of validation?

Thanks in advance,
Utsav

Hi @UTSAV KUMAR JAI 

If I understand your question correctly, you should be able to set the values of the dropdown and validate the values one by one on the same form to ensure that they 'show up'. Or use a parameterized data set in a parameterized test (which introduces its own limitations to the test as a whole).

Hello @Dr Atul G- LNG 

I understand your point. However, in my case, the dropdown values of the current field are populated based on the value selected in the previous field, and that previous field is being set randomly through a server‑side script. In such a situation, how can I validate the dropdown values?

Thanks for the quick response

You can try with KB0636073 In the Automated Test Framework (ATF), a Field Values Validation step with a String field ...
