I get the following error when entering text into an input field:

When input('input[name=q]', {"query":"null' AND 1509=BENCHMARK(5000000,MD5(0x55465268))-- UzJi","handshake":"d0tTest","filters":[]})
js failed:

It looks like what you sent as the argument is not a string and was JSON in your case.

For example:

* def data = {"foo":"bar"}
* input('#inputId', data)

This will fail, because Karate treats data here as a JSON / object data-type.

The solution is to do this (see the single-quotes):

* def data = '{"foo":"bar"}' 
* input('#inputId', data)

EDIT: as an alternative, this may work (brute force JS):

* def data = '{"foo":"bar"}' 
* script('#inputId', "_.value='" + data + "'")

Also refer the documentation for other ways to do type conversions: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate#type-conversion

For completeness and for me to refer people to in the future, I'm showing how you can create an end-to-end example locally to test / simulate this case.

Here is the HTML:

<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <script>
      var karate = {};
      karate.get = function(id) { return document.getElementById(id) };
      karate.setHtml = function(id, value) { this.get(id).innerHTML = value };      
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <input id="inputId"/>
    <button id="buttonId" onclick="karate.setHtml('containerId', karate.get('inputId').value)">Submit</button>
    <div id="containerId"></div>
  </body>
</html>

And here is the test:

* driver serverUrl + '/myhtml'
* def data = '{"foo":"bar"}'
* input('#inputId', data)
* click('#buttonId')
* waitForText('#containerId', '{"foo":"bar"}')

And please note that we have made it super-easy to write your own simulations using this sample project: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate/tree/develop/examples/ui-test
