[Webtest] How to verify existence of a submit button?

[Dierk Koenig]

Hi John,

the type of element you are looking for is not "submit" but "input".
cf. http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/manual/syntax.html#10

your step would be

 <verifyelement
                     stepid="Checks for the existence of a SUBMIT button"
                     type="input"
                     text="test"
 />

BTW: this step is not necessary if you use <clickbutton> rigth after
it. <clickbutton> checks for the existence of the corresponding button.

cheers
Mittie
