Slider/Range Input Detection (Computer Vision Limitation)
A
AgenticQA Feedback Bot
Issue:
"I have an element on the page which can not be detected (slider) in DOM it is <input type='range' ....>"
Root Cause:
The computer vision model used for element detection does not recognize range slider inputs. This is not a Playwright MCP limitation but a limitation of the CV model.
Impact:
- Cannot test pages with range slider inputs
- Blocker for applications that use sliders for user input
- Reproducible across different pages
Technical Details:
- Element Type: <input type="range">
- Detection Method: Computer Vision
- Status: Acknowledged as CV model limitation
Potential Solutions:
- Train/update CV model to recognize slider elements
- Add fallback to DOM-based detection for known element types
- Provide manual element selector option for unsupported elements
Business Impact:
Blocks testing for e-commerce sites with price range filters, audio/video controls, and other slider-based interfaces.
