How to Pass parameter in selinium command in (perl )

Hi All,

I need help in parametering the Link text in selinium.

In my webpage to verify the link for the text i use the selinium command as below

$sel->text_is("link=Logout", "Logout");

I wanted to pass the variable to the $sel->text_is($var).

When i tried below program , its not working.


my @val = ('"link=Logout", "Logout"' ,'"link=Advanced Search", "Advanced Search"');
print "The First Value is $val[0] \n";
$sel->text_is($val[0]);


The print statement prints the correct format , but the sel command execution fails.


I am getting the error.

Error requesting http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=getText&1=%22
link%3DLogout%22%2C%20%22Logout%22&sessionId=17a498aa96a9475997f79cc83ae16a3d:
ERROR: Element "link=Logout", "Logout" not found


Can anyone please help to resolve this issue?


I tried below options, but no luck .
$sel->text_is("$val[0]");
$sel->text_is('$val[0]');


Can anyone please let me know what is correct way to pass parameters.


Thanks

Hi,

I have one code which is written in java. You have to just change syntax into perl and understand the logic . It's simple and I am sure you will get it.
