Per-character type (type) ​

Types Value into the Target field character by character. Prefer fill for ordinary filling.

Step model ​

Target/Value facts match the source-of-truth catalog and Autotest step.

Steps ​

1. Add a type step.
2. Set Target and Value (INLINE or TEST_ACCOUNT).
3. Save.

The step is stored on the autotest. Next - neighbouring steps or autotest run creation.

Examples ​

Search with live filtering ​

Fields in the UI:

Step JSON fragment (copy-paste):

{
  "action_name": "type",
  "target": {
    "kind": "PLACEHOLDER",
    "value": "Search"
  },
  "value_text": "login",
  "value_source_type": "INLINE"
}

Common mistakes ​

• Do not use type instead of fill without a reason - it is slower and more brittle.
