Keyboard

Keyboard is responsible for low level keyboard input. It exists as a property on AppDriver, appDriver.Keyboard.

Methods​

void Press(params Key[] keys)

Simulates sending the given keys to the application. This is especially useful for non-WPF UI that AppDriver cannot access. For example, a usual Win32 dialog triggered by the application can be interacted with using appDriver.Keyboard.Press(Key.Tab) to tab through options and appDriver.Keyboard.Press(Key.Enter) to select one.

Usage

appDriver.Keyboard.Press(Key.A, Key.B, Key.C);
appDriver.Keyboard.Press(Key.LeftCtrl, Key.B); // Holds control for the other keys.

void Type(string text)

Simulates typing on a keyboard.

Usage

appDriver.Keyboard.Type("Hello world!");
