Automatic verification for text entry

Sometimes we need to verify that text that was entered (ie Type Into, Set Text, Keyboard Shortcuts etc) was entered correctly.

Currently we have to do this manually with Get Text etc, then an If, and maybe even put it all into a Do While or Retry Scope to retry text entry if it didn’t work the first time.

It would be great if the activities themselves had a text input verification capability - similar to the existing “verify element” section.

Hi @postwick ,

I believe for the Modern Type Into activity, we already have such a feature, did you get a chance to check it out ?

Ha! I always thought that’s for checking for the UI Element you expect to appear, not checking the value that was entered.

I’ll try this out, thank you!
