Hello everyone, a quick question…
It appears that appium driver merges value and placeholderValue here.
Is there any way to get the placeholderValue for the text field? I am trying to figure out if user has actually entered anything into the text field or if it is still in the placeholder state. It does not look like placeholder is passed through.
Is ‘Required’ not the placeholderValue? It seems like it could be, but I don’t know your app. I don’t know of any way to get placeholderValue other than checking the element before interaction.
@wreed it is in fact placeholder if user has not interacted with the field. However, there is no way to determine that for edit operation (for example). Is it something that user entered or is it a placeholder?
