PasswordBox validation

[davishoang96]

Hi Johan,

How can I get the value password from the passwordBox from the framework, something like

public void getPassword()
{
using (var app = Application.Launch("WpfApplication.exe"))
{
var window = app.MainWindow;
var passwordBox = window.FindPasswordBox("password_txt");
var value = admin123;
AssertException.AreEqual(value, passwordBox.password);
}
}

Thank you.

I don't think adding support for getting the password out of a PasswordBox is a good idea. Reason for this is that it could be used for nefarious purposes.
Neither do I know if it is possible to do it.

What is your use case for this?

My team are developing a checkpoint function for the automated testing tools. As the textbox, it was easy to validate the expected value although we can't validate the passwordBox because the black circles.
