Description: This command is used to fill any value in a text box or text area defined by a locator or inline XPath.

Usage Scenario: Suppose we want to fill the “Email” text box on our Reference app after navigating to the Login page.

Procedure: Define a locator for the text box where the HTML tag is, or use an inline XPath

<input id="email" type="email" name="email" class="form-control ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-valid-email ng-touched" placeholder="Email" autofocus="" ng-model="ctrl.credentials.username" style="">

The XPath is:

//input[contains(@placeholder, 'Email')]

Select the locator in your command options and enter a value in the “Value” field. Your steps will look like this:
