Not able to login using selenium webdriver using Java Language

Question

I’m not able to login using selenium webdriver using Java Language. It was working fine earlier.

Below is my HTML code:

<div class="form-group">

 <label for="loginUsername" style="width: 100%; font-weight: normal" aria-label="Username">

 <input id="loginUsername" class="form-control" name="username" type="text" placeholder="Username" autocapitalize="off">

</label>

</div>


<div class="form-group">

 <label for="loginPassword" style="width: 100%; font-weight: normal" aria-label="Password">

 <input id="loginPassword" class="form-control" name="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" autocapitalize="off">

</label>

</div>

Below is my code before the incident:

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"loginUsername\"]")).sendKeys("username");

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"loginPassword\"]")).sendKeys("password");

I even tried changing it up and it looked something like this:

WebElement username = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"loginUsername\"]")); username.click(); username.clear(); ;username.sendKeys("username");

WebElement password = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"loginPassword\"]")); password.click(); password.clear(); ;password.sendKeys("password");

Below is my full code:

<div class="col-sm-4 col-sm-offset-4">

<form action="/login" method="post">

  <div class="form-group title">

  <img src="/img/RA_LOGO_BLUE.png" alt="Risk Assessment System Logo">

  </div>

<div class="form-group">

  <label for="loginUsername" style="width: 100%; font-weight: normal" aria-label="Username">

  <input id="loginUsername" class="form-control" name="username" type="text" placeholder="Username" autocapitalize="off">

  </label>

</div>

<div class="form-group">

  <label for="loginPassword" style="width: 100%; font-weight: normal" aria-label="Password">

    <input id="loginPassword" class="form-control" name="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" autocapitalize="off">

  </label>

    </div>

    <input id="loginBtn" class="btn" type="submit" value="Login">

  </form>

  <br>

  <div class="text-left">

    <span class="fakeLink" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#forgotPasswordModal">Forgot Password?</span><br>

    <span class="fakeLink" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#forgotUsernameModal">Forgot Username?</span>

  </div>

</div>

Answer 1

Try to send text to the username and password field using below example:

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='loginUsername']")).sendKeys("username");

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='loginPassword']")).sendKeys("password");
