I'll help you test the webpage by following the instructions to verify the bold text functionality. Let me start by taking a screenshot to see the current state of the page.

I can see a text editor with "Bold" and "Italics" buttons, and some sample text in the editor area. I need to select "sample text" as instructed and then test the bold functionality. Let me start by selecting "sample text" from the first line.

I've clicked in the text area. Now I need to select "sample text" by clicking and dragging. I'll click before "sample" and drag to after "text".

Perfect! I have successfully selected "sample text" as shown by the blue highlight. Now I need to click the "Bold" button to make the selected text bold.

I notice that after clicking the Bold button: 1. The "Bold" button is now highlighted/active (showing a blue background) 2. The selected text "sample text" is still highlighted However, I need to check if the text actually became bold. Let me click somewhere else in the editor to deselect the text so I can see if the formatting was applied.

I can see that the text "sample text" now appears in italic format, not bold! This is unexpected behavior. The text should have become bold when I clicked the Bold button, but instead it became italic. This is a clear bug. Let me verify this issue by selecting the text again and trying to click the Bold button once more to see if it removes the italic formatting or applies bold formatting.

Good, I've selected the text again. Now I'll click the Bold button again to see if it removes the italic formatting or applies the correct formatting.

The Bold button is still highlighted. Let me click elsewhere to see the final formatting of the text.

After the second click of the Bold button, the text has returned to normal (not italic) formatting. This confirms the following issues: 1. **First Bold button click**: Instead of making the text bold, it made the text italic. This is incorrect behavior. 2. **Second Bold button click**: Instead of toggling bold off (which would have been expected if the text was actually bold), it removed the italic formatting and returned the text to normal. The Bold button is not functioning correctly - it's applying italic formatting instead of bold formatting. This is a clear failure of the expected functionality. <answer>FAIL</answer> The test fails because: 1. When clicking the "Bold" button with selected text, the text becomes italic instead of bold. This is incorrect behavior. 2. The Bold button appears to be applying italic formatting instead of bold formatting. 3. The button does not properly toggle bold formatting on and off as expected.
