Multiple clicks on a Button Before the next page is loaded

[Nate]

Hello,
        Is there a way I can simulate a user clicking a button several times before the next (resulting) page is loaded? I know in most cases this doesn't make sense, however I'm trying to test a particular issue where a user clicks a button that will cause multiple requests to the server. I'm looking for a setting that this may affect, and i've tried setting the timeout to a very short time and this doesn't seem to be helping.

Hello Nate,

Thank you for writing.

If you want to click a button that does not refresh the page you can record the step that click the button and wrap it a loop step. You can find how to create a loop step and set its count in the guide here.

So drag the click step and drop it in the loop. If you execute the test this button will be clicked count times. But if you want to click a submit button this test will probably fail.

For further questions, do not hesitate to contact us.

"But if you want to click a submit button this test will probably fail."

Yes, that fails and that's the situation I'm in.

I have tried adjusting the "WaitOnElements" property to False however that doesn't appear to help. How can I have it click the submit button multiple times without the framework waiting for the next page to load?

Hi Nate,

You can try to do it as you follow the steps bellow:
1. Create a step that click the button.
2. Select the step in the list and set properties:

• SimulateRealClick = true

• WaitOnElements = false

• WaitOnElementsTimeout = 0

3. Copy and paste this step more then twice.

This solution will give you ability to click the button more then one before the page is reloaded.
