Verify Selected Dropdown Value Equals Parameter: VERIFYSELECTED

The Verify Selected Dropdown Value Equals Parameter action checks if the currently selected option in a dropdown matches a specified value. This action is useful for confirming that a dropdown’s chosen option is as expected in an automated workflow. The left-hand side (LHS) value is the selected dropdown item retrieved from an element on the screen, while the right-hand side (RHS) value is entered in the parameter section. The RHS can be a hard-coded value or a variable.

Example: Let’s verify that the selected country in a Country Dropdown on a registration form is set to “United States.”

Steps to configure:

  1. Add a new step.
  2. Select VERIFYSELECTED from the Action drop-down.
  3. In the Screen Name field, select the screen where the dropdown is located (e.g., Registration Form).
  4. In the Element Key field, select the dropdown element representing the LHS value (e.g., Country Dropdown).
  5. In the Parameters section, enter the RHS value you want to verify as the selected option (e.g., “United States”).
  6. Click Save.

Note: Ensure that the Screen Name and Element Key are set up before using this action.

Expected Outcome on execution:

  • The Verify Selected Dropdown Value Equals Parameter action will check if the selected value in the dropdown (LHS value) matches the specified RHS value (e.g., “United States”).
  • If they match, the action will pass, confirming that the dropdown selection is correct.
  • If they do not match, the action will fail, signaling that the selected value is different than expected.
