2 weeks ago Hello, thank you for reaching out to us.
TestCafe t.pressKey does not support the code property of the KeyboardEvent. We recommend using the following workaround with the t.dispatchEvent method to fire your own DOM event:
await t.dispatchEvent(Selector('body'), 'keydown', { code: 'Escape',})
I will close this ticket.
What is your Scenario?
Use testcafe to simulate keystrokes await t.pressKey("esc")
What is the Current behavior?
What is the Expected behavior?
return as manual triggerred
What is the public URL of the test page? (attach your complete example)
my test html page
What is your TestCafe test code?
fixture('DDVUITest PerspectiveViewer').page("your html page").before( ctx=>{
}) .beforeEach(async t=>{
}) .afterEach(t=>{ }) .afterEach(t=>{ }) .after(ctx=>{
}).skipJsErrors(); test("keydown",async t => { await t.eval(()=>{ window.addEventListener("keydown",e=>console.log(e)) }) await t.pressKey("esc") })
