Save Attribute Value

Purpose

The "Save Attribute Value" action is used to extract and save the value of a specific attribute from a designated element on a webpage or application. This is particularly useful for validating UI elements, debugging, and performing dynamic comparisons in test automation.

This action requires "element parameters" to locate the target element and specify the attribute whose value needs to be saved. The extracted value can then be used in future validations or test steps.

Scenario Overview:

Steps to Follow:

1. Open the e-commerce website that contains the product listings.
2. Identify the product for which the price needs to be saved.
3. Locate the price element using a stable attribute, such as a class, data attribute, or XPath.
