Playwright - how to find input that will contain a value?

I have an Input element with value like '123 456'.

How can I validate that the Input element contains '123' using an Expect?

input_locator = 'input[id="edition"]'
expect(self.page.locator(input_locator).first).
to_have_value('123', timeout=20 * 1000)

I got this error:

selector resolved to <input name="" readonly type="text" id="edition" placeh…/> unexpected value "123 456"

selector resolved to <input name="" readonly type="text" id="edition" placeh…/> unexpected value "123 456"

Solution

  • to_have_value supports regular expressions. You can do something like this:

    expect(self.page.locator(input_locator).first).
to_have_value(re.compile(r"123.+"), timeout=20 * 1000)
