Selenium webdriver (javascript) tab out

Question

While filling out a form the test needs to tab out in order to go to next field.

The error I get is:

 InvalidArgumentError: Not a modifier key
         


        

Answer 1

The keyDown action is only for modifier keys :

key.CONTROL
key.SHIFT
key.ALT
key.COMMAND

To send the tab key, use .sendKeys:

var key = require('selenium-webdriver').Key;
var actionSequence = require('selenium-webdriver').ActionSequence;

new actionSequence(driver).keyDown(key.CONTROL).sendKeys(key.TAB).perform().then(function(){
    console.log("Done selection?");
});
