Dispatches HTML DOM event types e.g. 'click'
.
Parameter | Type | Defaults | Description |
---|---|---|---|

type | string | '' | DOM event type e.g. 'click' . |
eventInit | object | null | Optional event specific properties. See eventInit for more details. |
options | object | null | |
options.strict | boolean | false | When true , the call requires selector to resolve to a single element. If given selector resolves to more than one element, the call throws an exception. |

eventInit
Since eventInit
is event-specific, please refer to the events documentation for the lists of initial properties:
Example
JavaScript
import { browser } from 'k6/experimental/browser';
export const options = {
scenarios: {
browser: {
executor: 'shared-iterations',
options: {
browser: {
type: 'chromium',
},
},
},
},
};
export default async function () {
const page = browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://test.k6.io/browser.php');
page.dispatchEvent('#counter-button', 'click');
}
