Due to some maintenance on the page under test one of the fields got a different ID.
Not big deal, I just want to change the selector used and I will be fine.
However…
This seems to be more difficult than I had anticipated.
Under elements I find the element I need and I click edit.
Then I change the value of the used css selector. But the save button is greyed out.
Ok, I cancel and try again. I edit the Element and I add a new CSS Selector.
I move the selector to the top place and remove the old selector.
The save button is still greyed out.
Then I go to my Tests and find the step where I check on the field.
There I click to edit the element.
Now it is as if I have to create a new element.
That is possible, I add a css selector and now have to fill in a name.
As soon as I get out of the name field, in red there is a warning.
This element name already exist. Please choose a different name.
It is a little strange, but possible. so I choose a different name.
Same message.
ok, now I just randomly slap key on my keyboard.
The element name already exists.
Now I use the unix epoch timestamp
And the message does not want to change.
This element name already exist. Please choose a different name.
Now how can I update the selector of an existing element of create a new element, when I cannot save anything?
