I was searching the web for a long time. I'm trying to put
if
and
else
statements into this selenium IDE. The program itself doesn't provide any parameters, hints, or help. I saw a lot of results online where it's just java code, however I don't see anyway to enter code here.
Can someone show me an example of how to use this if and then statement?
Example .side file. Save the below code in file with name as 'Test.side' and open in selenium ide
