The question regarding Chrom is still valid. Can anyone drive the chrome

The problem is that I cannot move forward as I get this error

element located, but timed out after 30 seconds, waiting for
#"//*[@id=\"Given_Names\"]",
:tag_name=>"a"}> to be present (Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException)

Because of this I was thinking to try another browser...

[wtr-general] can you run the scripts on Win10\ chrome? Used to be working a while ago

Hi all,

I try to use chrome instead of firefox,
but I am getting

(Selenium::WebDriver::Error::WebDriverError)

I try to use this basic try,rb  test file for fast testing. In firefox
works but is not in Chrome.

ruby try.rb


require 'watir'
require 'webdrivers'

 #@browser = Watir::Browser.new :firefox
  @browser =  Watir::Browser.new :chrome

  @browser.goto "https://www.google.com/;


I am using Win 10
My browser version is :
Version 67.0.3396.99 (
and I use chrome driver 2.40

I have it on class path as well I use the gem webdrivers.

So can you run the scripts on Win 10 on chrome?


Thank you!

2. If I use xpath is working


@browser.link(:xpath, '//*[@id="Employee_ID"]').click!
or
@browser.link(:xpath, '//*[@id="Employee_ID"]').click



So I go with xpath.


Please tell me if there is any difference between click and click!

or it doesn't matter what we use.

Thank you!

Hi all,


I have to automate something like
1. i have to go and login to an admin portal and read is a configurator
lets say
profile page is on
2. after this i have to go and login to the client url and check if the
profile page shows and check other stuff
3. go back to the admin url and id the profile was on i have to uncheck it,
save
4. i have to go back to the client url and check if the profile page is no
longer visible


What would be the correct approach to move back and forth to these 2 url

[wtr-general] text include assertion

Hi all!

This should be so simple but not sure why it fails.

I have this

@browser.text.include? "English"


and it returns fals. This is correct. Can one help me how do I do an
assertion to pass or fail?

I try:


expect(@browser.text.include?("English")).to be false



But at run I get
 Then English French Language Option should not show
  undefined method `expect' for #
  Did you mean?  exec (NoMethodError)
  ./features/support/pages/loginClientPage.rb:13:in

Re: [wtr-general] Help with how to access an element with this xpath

[c w]

I am looking for a shorter xpath
like
@browser.element(:css =>
'.lwc-editIcon.ng-scope.ng-isolate-scope').wait_until_present.flash
@browser.element(:css => 'lwc-editIcon.ng-scope.ng-isolate-scope').click



or

@browser.element(:xpath, '//lwc-editIcon').wait_until_present.flash

but these are not working.

And I am not sure if we can access a custom tag like md-icon'

Can we do this?

Re: [wtr-general] Re: how to resize browser to different sizes or to maximize

[c w]

I believe that the problem comes for what package should I require.

I use only
require "watir"

I get an error where the window is not defined.

Do you know what other packages should I require?


A few years ago we used to use:
require 'watir-webdriver'


I am still confused about changes.

[wtr-general] how to resize browser to different sizes or to maximize

[c w]

Hi ! I need tour help!

I use a code used to be working but with all changes it looks like is no
longer working.

I try to goole but I haven't find the answer.

I use testgen framework and really doesn't mateer. It looks like I cannot
resize the browser window to different sizez or even to maximize.

Please can one tell me what has been changed and what I should update. I
have no idea where the driver resides now.

I use this



require 'watir'
require "rubygems"

Before do
  @browser = Watir::Browser.new :chrome
puts "."
 #have to find out how to maximize the browser - it looks like the old way
no longer working
 #@browser.window.maximize   #this used to be working

@browser.driver.manage().window().maximize   # no longer working
@browser.driver.manage.window.resize_to(900,900)# not working

[wtr-general] angular login

[c w]

Hi all!


Please can one tell me how do i fill in the email and password when te
application is angular based



I try to use this


#this is from cucumber and cheese
require 'rubygems'
require 'watir-ng'


@browser = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome
@browser.navigate.to  "https://apps.vizlly.com/dms-angular/#/login;
sleep 3
@browser.text_field(:id => 'email').flash

@browser.text_field(:id => 'email').set('em...@email.com')



But I can load the page but I can't write into the text fields.
Can we access elements using model or the way protractor does?

This is the application link

https://apps.vizlly.com/dms-angular/#/login


I do appreciate.
I try to see if I can move to watir vs protractor.


Kind regards and I appreciate a lot your time!

[wtr-general] watir example fails

[c w]

Hi,

I am a bit frustrated as this used to be working few years ago. I try again
as I intend to try to use back watir and I have no idea why starting with
the second element scripts are failing on the watir example


Just run this:

require 'rubygems'
require 'watir'


driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome
@browser = Watir::Browser.new driver

@browser.goto 'http://bit.ly/watir-example'
@browser.text_field(:name => "entry.100").set 'Watir'
sleep 3
@browser.text_field(:name => "entry.101").set 'Watir'


I get the following:

Thank you in advance!

I try to click on any header elements[I want to select one for instance]. I

But it looks like it doesn’t work. Can we click spans using the name?

This is a screen snapshot:

Hi Derek!
Thank you so much. This works just run it:

I just thought that maybe a simple way and not to use the entire full path.

 What is the reason you don't want to use xpath?  If it's just because of

Re: [wtr-general] simple way for this xpath?

[c w]

It works great!

@browser.h3(:text = Brook).parent.parent.parent.button(:value = View
Details).click

I didn't know about this. Can you tell me where is the best place to start
reading about .parent
.child


Thank you,
Cristina

 I would recommend something like this actually.  If you have something
 that you know, like the name of the dog, you can work back up and down the
 tree.  Using index can be your only option sometimes, but it can be brittle.

 For example:

 b.h3(:text = Hanna).parent.parent.button(:value = View Details).click

 The question is when we go here http://puppies.herokuapp.com

 how can we click in an easy way on the View Detail button for Hanna? or
 any View Detail button as we do not have an id.
