Common Properties (Web Automation)

The Web Automation Web Session Action Steps share these Common Properties: Browser Settings

  • Browser mismatch

    Specifies if the execution aborts when there is a browser mismatch or if it shows a warning.

  • Hide Command Prompt

    Hides the web driver’s command prompt (default). Can be displayed again for diagnostic purposes.

  • Initial URL

    The URL that the web session launches when it starts. Default: about: blank.

  • Keep out mouse

    When selected, at the start of the Web session the mouse moves to the corner defined in the Move mouse to property. This feature enables you to avoid triggering hover effects on a website accidentally.

  • Move mouse to

    Defines where the mouse pointer moves to if Keep out mouse is enabled.

  • Repeat keep out mouse

    When selected, the mouse moves to the corner defined in the Move mouse to property before each step within the Web Session. This feature enables you to avoid triggering hover effects on a website accidentally.

  • Script Timeout [sec]

    Maximum waiting time in seconds before the internal scripting of the web driver aborts. Do not change this value unless MuleSoft Support advises you to do so.

  • Start maximized

    Decide wether the browser window starts maximized.

  • Webdriver Retries

    Number of retries to establish a successful web driver connection.

  • Webdriver Timeout [sec]

    After the assigned time, the web session aborts a Webdriver command.

Additionally, Web Element Action Steps share the following Properties:

  • Element XPath

    XPath is short for XML Path Language. This is a special language used to uniquely identify elements within an XML document. Since HTML is based on XML, you can use the XPath to identify any object on a webpage. You can use the Browser Wizard (see above) to generate XPaths or you can also enter them manually.

  • Window Title

    Title of the website where the referenced element is located. This will be set when using the Browser Wizard.

  • Use Window Title

    Determines whether or not the website title should be used to identify the correct browser tab

  • Frame Indexes / Frame Hierarchy

    A series of indexes needed to identify elements that lie within frames. Each frame is referenced by its index, with individual frames separated by slashes. For example, a Frame Index of /2/1 means that the element lies within the first sub-frame of the second frame of the main page. This will be set when using the Browser Wizard.
