替代 send_keys() - selenium python

Question

I wanted to write faster alternative of this Python code:

driver.get(myUrl)
message = driver.find_element_by_id('message')
send = driver.find_element_by_id('submit')

for _ in range(myRange):
    message.send_keys(myText)
    send.click()

As an alternative, tried to execute JavaScript with Selenium using execute_script() and execute_async _script() :

myJS = "document.getElementById('message').setAttribute('value', 'myText')"

for _ in range(myRange):
    driver.execute_script(myJs)
    send.click()

Both of them stopped after first loop cycle without any error.

What prevents the second script from looping through the whole range? And are there any other fast alternatives to send_keys() ?

Answer 1

Not sure the context of the test and why you are doing it, but this is how it should be done.

driver.get(myUrl)

for _ in range(myRange):
    # I would suggest using the explicit wait for the element staleness check here before
    # entering the text
    driver.find_element_by_id('message').send_keys(myText)
    driver.find_element_by_id('submit').click()
