Is there is any way to highlight the validation message by using Selenium IDE?



Example: During login when the user passes the invalid input the validation messages and login will be failed. I want to highlight the validation message which is getting displayed on the screen.

You can use the "run script" command with JavaScript code in the target field.



Here some example code to highlight the first h1 element on a page with XPath:



document.evaluate('//h1', document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue.setAttribute('style', 'outline: red dashed 5px !important')


I can't seem to pass found elements with Selenium IDE, so you need to locate in JavaScript code.



Looks something like this:

    When looking at the API of selenium IDE there is no way to do it. https://sqa.stackexchange.com/a/38970/35888



    If you have access to the webdriver you can visually highlight specific elements by playing around with the css dynamically. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24882723/how-can-i-set-new-style-of-element-using-selenium-web-driver



    JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
    WebElement element = driver.findElement(yourElement);
    js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('style', 'outline: yellow dashed 5px !important')", element);


    in your case you would want to set the background color of the element.
