Sorry I couldn't reproduce this error locally. Probably I will need and HTML and JS for a page you are testing.
Maybe there are some JS hooks or non-native input fields that prevents a field from being cleared.

On second check you may be right. Implementation of
clearFieldis quite different fromfillFieldand didn't throw an error when field was not located. I updated that and addedclearFieldto other helpers. Now it should locate elements by name, labels, css, xpath, and throw an error if no element matched. Just as you expected it to be )Thanks for the report.

It seems to break on Chrome only (on 0.4.13).
I'm testing via BrowserStack and no problem with IE11, Edge or Firefox... Just chrome.
Probably a bug with WebdriverIO
clearElementfunction ?
