Hi, welcome to SO. You have some formatting issues here, could you please fix them? — Stígandr, Sep 22 '14 at 14:13
You could have just used `sendKeys("10")` instead of `sendKeys(10)`. How would system know what is `10`. — Sanchit, May 23 '18 at 10:24

You need to convert the Integer to String and pass them to sendKeys like this:

element.sendKeys(String.valueOf(number))

running this:

paris.FindElementByTag("input").SendKeys ("4")

will APPEND 4 to the current input content.

paris.FindElementByTag("input").Clear

will put a 0 in the input

then SendKeys ("4") will work

    JavascriptExecutor js = ((JavascriptExecutor) driver);
    js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('value','"+attributeValue+"');", netQtty);

When an input box is of integer type, here is the solution for you to be able to pass integer values into this integer type input box:

{integer input box element ID}.Click();
{integer input box element ID}.SendKeys(""+99999);

Another solution you can try if the input box is of integer type is:

@FindBy(id="toolbox-options-key")
private WebElement BillingRateTextBox;

    public void createNewBill(String billingRate)
    {
        BillingRateTextBox.sendKeys(int(10));
    }
