38/47 passed. A lot worked first time, and this is against a recent SME9 Beta 3 Looks like I need to have more things installed. "Importing Paramiko library failed. Make sure you have Paramiko installed." However I have them installed according to yum & PIP. Ian From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marco Hess Sent: 26 March 2014 22:20 To: [email protected] Subject: [discussion] SME Test Automation on GitHub I pushed my git repository to GitHub to make it more easy to allow updates from others. It is now located here: https://github.com/MarcoHess/smeserver-test-automation I also updated the http://wiki.contribs.org/Robotframework wiki page to reflect that location change. I would encourage anybody that has been playing with these tests to follow the 'fork' and 'pull request' process (https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo) to submit your updates and I will endeavor to merge these into the master repository. Note that with the latest update I managed to get a test to work that adds and deletes a hostname. This illustrates a couple of techniques to fill in forms, click the right buttons and even use a fancy xpath expression to find a link to click within a table. I am looking forward to plenty of pull requests to make this into a comprehensive SME validation framework.

With regard to the input fields, I found that selenium has some trouble when frames get reloaded (i.e. after clicking a button) and it not immediatly sees the new frame on the page. I found that selecting waiting for the page to load and then selecting away from the frame (like to the navigation frame) and then back to the main frame helps a lot. Other than that at this stage I think it is mostly learning curve with the robot framework. Too early to tell if we need changes in the server manager web pages to accomodate the testing. I replied to Ian that I would move my private git repository to GitHub to make it more easy to provide contributions.

We do need to enhance these so that they can be of proper use, I ran out of time a couple of weeks ago, but might have some more time soon. I had trouble getting the package to recognise the input fields in the Server Manager. Marco indicated he thought that it was to do with the html frames, which is well outside my understanding. If someone could look at this and give me a recipe for plugging data into the input fields in the server manager pages then I'm happy to plug away developing testing scripts for the system.

Marco: As you currently have a GIT repo for the tests would you be willing to maintain that and accept contributions until the foundation sets up an official repository for the tests? I really appreciate the work that has gone on, thank you.

I'll update the Wiki with instructions on how people can load your files and execute them. I'll also start thinking about a schedule of tests we can run (and I'll try and implement some of them!).

I think I have figured out what the problem with the buttons in the web pages is. It has to do with selenium loosing the frame contents when it is reloaded. By unselecting and reselecting the "main" frame, the robot framework gets access to the elements in the frame again. I have done a minor update to the scripts in my repository and am trying more extensive form changes now. Currently able to mostly change the software installer settings (but more frame reloads with yum status messes it up a bit).
