Why isn't Selenium capturing my keystrokes?
Question
I'm trying out the recorder of the latest Selenium IDE Firefox extension on win32/ff3.
On one page, currently I have to hit Enter to go to the next page, but it's not on a submit button, it's captured manually. This is not picked up by the recorder. I know I can enter it manually myself after recording, but why isn't this part of it?
Solution
From the Selenium FAQ:
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/SIDE/FAQ
"Not every event will be recorded by Selenium IDE. Usually the ones that won't be recorded are those that involve complex HTML and/or AJAX. We hope to improve this over time, but there will always be situations where the IDE can't record everything because it has to balance recording too little with too much."
OTHER TIPS
Have you tried with a different browser? Does it happen the same in FF2, IE ? Use the latest nightly version. I know that there are some problems with FF3.
