hover - Momentic

Same target rules as click, but the pointer stays on the element without clicking. Reach for hover when a menu, tooltip, or toolbar only appears while the pointer rests on a trigger, or when a page loads content on mouseover.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`on`	`string`	No	Natural-language description of the hover target.
`css`	`string`	No	CSS selector for the target. Use instead of the description key.
`coords`	`string \| { x, y }`	No	Absolute viewport coordinates. Either an `x, y` string (e.g. `120, 40`) or a `{ x, y }` object.
`x`	`number \| string`	No	X coordinate. Must be provided together with `y`.
`y`	`number \| string`	No	Y coordinate. Must be provided together with `x`.
`force`	`boolean`	No	Force the action even when the element is not actionable.
`iframe`	`string`	No	URL or URL pattern of the iframe that contains the target element.
`offset`	`string \| { x, y }`	No	Pixel offset from the resolved target. Either an `x, y` string or a `{ x, y }` object.
`saveAs`	`string`	No	Name of the variable to write this step’s return value to.
`retries`	`number`	No	Number of times to retry the step on failure before failing the test.
`skipped`	`boolean`	No	Skip this step at execution time.

Shorthand

Target description as a single string.

- hover: the card on the page containing "return 3"

Examples

Open a hover-only menu and click an item inside it:

- hover: the Account menu in the top navigation
- click: the Billing item in the open menu

Reveal a tooltip and assert on its text:

- hover:
    css: 'button[aria-label="Run status"]'
- checkPageContains: Last run passed 4 minutes ago

- hover:
    css: '[aria-label="Stable hover card panel"]'
    offset:
      x: 489
      y: 69

- hover:
    coords: 5, 5
