UI Testing Failure - Neither element nor any descendant has keyboard focus on secureTextField

Question

This is my case:

let passwordSecureTextField = app.secureTextFields[\"password\"]
passwordSecureTextField.tap()
passwordSecureTextField.typeText(\"wrong_pass         


        

Answer 1

Stanislav has the right idea.

In a team environment, you need something that will automatically work. I've come up with a fix here on my blog.

Basically you just paste:

UIPasteboard.generalPasteboard().string = "Their password"
let passwordSecureTextField = app.secureTextFields["password"]
passwordSecureTextField.pressForDuration(1.1)
app.menuItems["Paste"].tap()
