selenium webdriver – CLEAR Methodology skipped whereas operating the exams

You should use the next technique to clear textual content fields, it’s examined on several types of enter fields

public boolean clearTextField(Object locator) {
    _element = _query.castLocator(locator);
    if (toBeCleared(_element)) {
        _element.clear();
    }
    if (toBeCleared(_element)) {
        _mouse.click on(locator);
        // simulate choose all textual content utilizing `finish`, `shift` and `house` keypresses.
        multipleKeyStrokes(locator, "finish");
        multipleKeyStrokes(locator, "shift+house");
        multipleKeyStrokes(locator, "backspace");
    }
    return true;
}

personal boolean toBeCleared(Object component) {
    boolean flag = true;

    String jText = (String) _js.executeScript("return $(arguments[0]).val();", component);
    String textual content = _query.getText(component);

    if (_verify.isStringMatch("", jText) && _verify.isStringMatch("", textual content)) {
        flag = false;
    }

    return flag;
}

public boolean multipleKeyStrokes(Object locator, String keys) {
    _element = _query.castLocator(locator);

    _browser.checkAndInjectSimulations();
    _js.executeScript("$(arguments[0]).simulate('key-combo', {combo: arguments[1]})", _element, keys);
    return true;
}

You should use Actions class to simulate keypresses, I’ve used javascript to take action within the multipleKeyStrokes() technique.
