keys
Send a sequence of key strokes to the active element. This command is similar to the
send keys command in every aspect except the implicit termination: The modifiers are
not released at the end of the call. Rather, the state of the modifier keys is kept
between calls, so mouse interactions can be performed while modifier keys are depressed.
You can also use characters like “Left arrow” or “Back space”. WebdriverIO will take
care of translating them into unicode characters. You’ll find all supported characters
here.
To do that, the value has to correspond to a key from the table.
