  • Command:
    Command can be considered as the actual operation/action that is performed on the browser elements. For instance, if you are opening a new URL, the command will be 'open'; if you are clicking on a link or a button on the web page, then the command will be 'clicked'.

IDE-Features
  • Target:
    Target specifies the web element on which the operation has to be performed along with a locator attribute. For instance, if you are clicking on a button called javaTpoint, then the target link will be 'javaTpoint'.

IDE-Features
  • Value:
    Value is treated as an optional field and can be used when we need to send some actual parameters. For instance, if you are entering the email address or password in a textbox, then the value will contain the actual credentials.
