How do I test a Delete link

[Wade]

I have a link that when clicked deletes an address. I'm not sure how to get the test to work for this.

Please see the attached file

Here is the DOM: <a href="http://xxxx.xxxx.com/site/account/addresses.jsp?addressUsage=SHIP_TO&amp;_DARGS=/np/site/account/addresses.jsp.1_A&amp;_DAV=61dba2ef-43c7-480f-aefd-f0097eea86ce&amp;_dynSessConf=7286385053344787325">Delete</a>

Here is the test log:

Hello Wade,

Most probably this step is failing because of the default find logic that uses href in which there is a dynamic value. You can try editing the find logic of the element in order to use TextContent or InnerText.

Please check this article on how to change how an element is found.

Here is a short video (no audio) on how you can proceed in your case.
