             Summary: T5.4 Detect javascript errors while running selenium tests
                 Key: TAP5-2239
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-2239
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 5.4
            Reporter: Chris Poulsen


I've been wondering why it wasn't possible for selenium-based tests to report 
back javascript errors as test failures, as they usually indicate some kind of 
error.

Taking yet another swing at this a couple of days ago I stumbled upon a firefox 
plugin (https://github.com/mguillem/JSErrorCollector - Apache v2 licensed) for 
collecting javascript console errors.

The plugin is made for webdriver, but it was trivial to get it going with 
selenium1.

The attached patch registers a testng listener that after each successful 
selenium test checks to see if an error was registered in the browser console. 
In case an error happened; the test success is changed to a failure and some 
info from the console is set as the throwable.

To get things going apply the attached patch, and drop the attached xpi into 
the tapestry-core/src/test/conf/ff_profile_template/extensions folder.

Then run the core tests. The plugin can be used the other selenium tests by 
providing the extensions folder in their src/test/conf/ff_profile_template

This test add-on exposes the ajaxformloop failure reported as TAP5-2228 and 
TAP5-2230, a place or two where something fails with requirejs related error 
and one or two other trivialities on my windows machine.
