How to emulate keyboard input in Puppeteer
To emulate the user typing something on the keyboard, use
puppeteer_emulate_keyboard_input.js
await page.keyboard.type("the text");This will type the text extremely fast with virtually no delay between the characters.
In order to simulate the finite typing speed of real users, use
example.js
await page.keyboard.type("the text", {delay: 100});instead. The delay betwen characters in this example is 100 Milliseconds, i.e. the emulated user types 10 characters per second.
