[wtr-general] Re: How to locate the element with node(child node, father node) or directory attributes?

[wesley chen]

Thanks Bret, your comment works.
I mistake the parent as parentNode, so I always failed.

Hi, Aidy,
Would you please show your idea more detailed?
I think your idea may be useful sometimes.


Thanks all you guys.

Wesley.

[wtr-general] Re: How to capture data from a web page in Watir?

[wesley chen]

I think the html code you provided is too little and not reasonable.
If you want to capture so little data on this page, you can use regular
expression.

[wtr-general] Re: How to call ruby script from another ruby script

[wesley chen]

1. Create rb file 1: test1.rb
class Test1
def get_s(str)
puts str
end
end
test1=Test1.new
test1.get_s(test1 rb)

2. Create rb file 2: test2.rb
require 'watir'
class Test2
def test2(str)
puts str
end
end
test2=Test2.new
test2.test2(In test2)

3. Create rb file 3: test3.rb
require 'watir'
path1= File.dirname(__FILE__)+'/test1.rb'
path2= File.dirname(__FILE__)+'/test2.rb'
system(ruby #{path1})
system(ruby #{path2})

Attention: test1.rb, test2.rb and test3.rb should be in the same directory.
In test3.rb, you just need to assign the right file directory, you can use
system(ruby #{path}) to run the script you want.

Expect it could help.

[wtr-general] wait_until doesn't work.

[wesley chen]

I have installed watir1.6 few months ago, then I installed watir1.6.1,
recently I installed watir 1.6.2, and I upgraded my rubygem (I have not
uninstall anything), today, I found when I only require 'watir'  and don't
include Watir, i use wait_until, it said, wait_until has not defined. Then,
I require 'watir' and include Watir, use watir_until, it said that, no such
file to load: safariwatir

What's the problem? Do I have to uninstall the watir and rubygem and then
install again?

[wtr-general] Re: About Javascript Popups/Dialogue Box

[wesley chen]

About the dialog-pop up, the code from Watir.com is easy and well enough to
deal with most of the issues.
In our project, if we can avoid the popup by our extra code, we'd better
avoid it, watir code is not steady enough to deal with it.
Watir::Waiter.wait_until is not good enough to deal with the wait pop-up
issue. In our project, for pop-up issue, it is good to use *sleep*, for
other web elements waiting, Watir::Waiter.wait_until is quite useful.

The method below can deal with most of the dialog popup.
#For OK, Cancle button or OK button
def popup_clicker(ie,buttonname)
require 'watir/contrib/enabled_popup'
require 'win32ole'
hwnd = ie.enabled_popup(5)
if(hwnd)  #yeah! a popup
popup = WinClicker.new
popup.makeWindowActive(hwnd) #Activate the window.
popup.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd,buttonname) #Click the button
#popup.clickWindowsButton(/Internet/,buttonname,30)
popup=nil
end
end
# For input box
def prompt_popup(ie,waitTime,user_input,button)
require 'watir/contrib/enabled_popup'
require 'win32ole'
# get a handle if one exists
hwnd = ie.enabled_popup(waitTime)
if(hwnd)  # yes there is a popup
w = WinClicker.new
if(user_input)
w.setTextValueForFileNameField(hwnd,user_input)
end
w.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd, #{button})
w=nil
end
end

Expect the code above can help some of you guys.
Thanks.

You said:
The HTML code for the button does not have any href or any other information
that can be used for the pupose of grabbing the new browser window.

May we have a try? I think anything can be grab.

if(ie2=new_window)
ie2
end

In fact, ie2 is the new window, then you can practice in the ie2

 You don't get back the specific object type from element_by_xpath, so
 some methods don't work. But this works:

 b = Watir::IE.new
 b.goto 'http://www.google.com/'
 txt = b.element_by_xpath(//*...@name='q'])
 txt.value = 'Richard Lawrence'
 btn = b.element_by_xpath(//*...@name='btnG'])
 btn.click

 So you might try the value property instead of the set method.

arity is a computer science term for arguments to a function.
 
FirstTest.new.test (1, 0)  should be resulting in an error that you
 do
not have enough arguments since the definition of test only takes one
argument. After that is fixed, and you get the error you are seeing,
it is because that is a COM error. As Amit mentioned,
getCellByPosition takes two arguments - a row and a column. You only
have something called id. You are instantiating your class with two
arguments. Change that and getCellByPosition and you will be in
business hope that helps

Suppose I have a SQL 2005 DB, db name: active, user id: wesley, password:

How can I get all the data in the tb wesley_tb?

I have searched some resource, majorly two methods referred.
First require 'win32ole'
Second require 'dbi'

Is anybody familiar with the functions?

Really appreciate to your help.

[wtr-general] Re: How to get the data in a SQL 2005 database table with ruby?

[wesley chen]

Hi, Aidy,
I tried your way, but failed, you have not provide some method for user id,
user password input.
Would you please provide the information more detailed?

I find another solution which can well deal with this problem.
But I still expect your reply.

require 'win32ole'

class SqlServer
# This class manages database connection and queries
attr_accessor :connection, :data, :fields
attr_writer :username, :password

def initialize(host, username = 'sa', password='')
@connection = nil
@data = nil
@host = host
@username = username
@password = password
end

def open(database)
# Open ADO connection to the SQL Server database
connection_string =  Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;
connection_string  Persist Security Info=False;
connection_string  User id...@username};
connection_string  password...@password};
connection_string  Initial Catalog=#{database};
connection_string  Data source...@host};
connection_string  Network Library=dbmssocn
@connection = WIN32OLE.new('ADODB.Connection')
@connection.Open(connection_string)
end

def query(sql)
# Create an instance of an ADO Recordset
recordset = WIN32OLE.new('ADODB.Recordset')
# Open the recordset, using an SQL statement and the
# existing ADO connection
recordset.Open(sql, @connection)
# Create and populate an array of field names
@fields = []
recordset.Fields.each do |field|
@fields  field.Name
end
begin
# Move to the first record/row, if any exist
recordset.MoveFirst
# Grab all records
@data = recordset.GetRows
rescue
@data = []
end
recordset.Close
# An ADO Recordset's GetRows method returns an array
# of columns, so we'll use the transpose method to
# convert it to an array of rows
@data = @data.transpose
end

def close
@connection.Close
end
end
db = SqlServer.new('localhost', 'user_id', 'user_password')
db.open('DB_name')
db.query(SELECT * from table_name;)
p db.data
=begin
puts field_names = db.fields
cust = db.data
puts cust.size
puts cust[0].inspect
=end
db.close
Thanks.

 that the problem occurs at line 35 of windows-pr-1.0.1\lib\windows
 \msvcrt\string.rb...
 In that file at line 35, a call is made to strtok_s and this method is
 not found in my versions of the dlls. If I replace strtok_s with
 strtok everything works perfectly. According to what I've found on
 the net about strtok, it is better to use strtok_s instead of strtok
 since strtok uses a static variable to store the current token
 position and this issue has been fixed in strtok_s. It means that the
 file string.rb of the windows-pr gems is OK and I should not be using
 strtok. I suppose strtok_s is not found on my system because windows
 loads an older version of the dll containing the method. Does someone
 know which dll contains strtok/strtok_s?

 Thanks a lot for the help!

I think you need to do more than that. The problem seems to be that
there bad versions of these gems out there, and that they were

The solution, therefore, would be uninstall these gems and then
reinstall them.

 \msvcrt\string.rb...
 In that file at line 35, a call is made to strtok_s and this method is

 strtok everything works perfectly. According to what I've found on
 the net about strtok, it is better to use strtok_s instead of strtok
 since strtok uses a static variable to store the current token
 position and this issue has been fixed in strtok_s. It means that the

 strtok. I suppose strtok_s is not found on my system because windows
 loads an older version of the dll containing the method. Does someone
 know which dll contains strtok/strtok_s?

 Thanks a lot for the help!

So What a proud thing it is if I create the whole automation test frame for
my project, from the design, to the code, to the test, and even if I leave
the company, the new comers find the code is so easy to read, to maintain!
It will be still a long way for me to complete it, but cheer up!


Thanks.
Wesley Chen.

 Hi All,

 I have been into testing for about 6 years. My testing experience has
 mostly been into testing on unix platforms and C-Api testing.

 My current job is around testing of a website. Hence this is the first time
 I started looking out for automated test tools for website automation.
 This is how I got to learn about Watir and I enjoy working with Watir. So
 far I have used Perl and Ruby is quite similar to Perl.

 Manual testing can become monotonous and hence doing automation using Watir
 makes the job interesting.

 Cheers,
 Natasha

[wtr-general] Re: Watir problem with IE

[wesley chen]

You may know all the ie windows attributes by:
Watir::IE.each { |ie|
 puts ie.title
puts ie.url
}

You can locate the special ie window by:
ie=Watir::IE.find(:title,/ie_title_name/)  # ie=Watir::IE.find(:url,
/ie_url/)
ie.goto(...)


Thanks.

  Hi,
 
  When i execute the following code
 
  ie = Watir::IE.new()
  ie.goto(http://www.yahoo.com;)
 
  it opens a new IE window first and then goes to a second window, where
  yahoo.com is opened. When i give a command like ie.refresh() or access
  ie.html it is the first window ( which is blank ) that is being
  refreshed. Can you please suggest how to avoid multiple windows being
  opened and also how to save a webpage opened like this?
 
  Thanks,

[wtr-general] Re: How to change a ruby file into an .exe file

Two steps to make the .rb file to .exe file.

1. go to your command line, run
gem install rubyscript2exe
2. Go to your main.rb file directory, run
rubyscript2exe main.rb

It will make the main.rb into main.exe

Thanks.

[wtr-general] Re: How to change a ruby file into an .exe file

[wesley chen]

A problem exists:
I create two .rb file in the same directory
first is test1.rb, with code:
require 'watir'
$ie=Watir::IE.new

second is test2.rb, with code:
*require  File.join(Dir.pwd, 'test1.rb')*
$ie.goto(www.baidu.com)
puts OK
$ie.text_field(:id,'kw').set(www.baidu.com)
$ie.button(:id,'sb').click
puts OK
$ie.close

When I go to the right file directory, run
rubyscript2exe test2.rb

I get test2.exe, it can be executed as expected.

Problem is: When I change the
*require File.join(Dir.pwd, 'test1.rb')*
to
*require File.dirname(__FILE__) +'/test1.rb'* # *require
File.dirname(__FILE__) +'\\test1.rb'*
I can
*rubyscript2exe test2.rb*
into
*test2.exe*
 as expected.
But when I execute test2.exe, I get error message:
*No such file to load --***\app\test1.rb(LoadError)
*
In my project, I use require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../..' anywhere, so
how can make it so that, the exe file can be executed?


Any suggestion would be quite appreciated.

Thanks.
Wesley Chen.

[wtr-general] Re: Synchronization Points

[Wesley Chen]

Suppose there are two browsers, one is ie1, another is ie2, the separate
browser.
You may achieve it by:
ie2.do_something
ie2.close
ie1.refresh
ie1.wait
ie1.do_something.


Thanks.

2009/3/24 Darin Duphorn dduph...@redbrickhealth.com


 Brett,

 Within this synchronization, is there a way to handle issues where the
 page doesn't fully load?  (insert a page refresh after a certain time?)

 We have a situation where if a separate browser maybe opened in IE 7.0
 and the automation is running on the an active browser the page doesn't
 fully load and the automation hangs.  We have to click refresh the page
 and then the automation continues.

 When I run a full regression, I do close all browsers before starting,
 and I don't run it the issue, but when we build the test it can be a
 pain.


 Thanks,

 Darin

 Watir has built in synchronization. Most Watir methods will not return
 until the page has finished loading. This is invisible and automatic and

 handles 95% of the synchronization needs of Web Apps.

 When Watir was first released, there were browser drivers in several
 different languages. The most popular was Samie, in Perl. But Watir was
 the first to include this automatic synchronization mechanism. I suspect

 that this was key to its success. Because it is invisible and automatic,

 most people don't give it much thought.

 A little history lesson for you.

  The API ranges from simple wait() to more sophisticated functions
  waiting for specific object properties.
 
  Do we have analogs for synchronization points in Watir?
  Do we need to create a loop checking if the web page contains some
  text to guarantee it downloaded?
 
  So far I did not insert any synchronization points in the scripts and
  everything worked fine.

 3 tests, 5 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors

[wtr-general] How to connect SQL server 2005 in Ruby when the DB name is as 172.11.22.5\thesql?

[Wesley Chen]

Hi, guys,
I meet a problem to connect to the SQL 2005 in ruby.

1. On local, there is a SQL 2005 server, it is:
*Server name:* 192.168.132.157
*User:* Wesley
*Password:* 11
I can connect it successfully by:
*db=SqlServer.new('192.168.132.157', 'Wesley', '11')*

But on INT server, it is SQL 2005 with:
*Server name:* 172.11.22.5\thesql
*User:* Wesley
*Password:* abc?de
I can't connect it successfully by:
*db=SqlServer.new('172.11.22.5\thesql', 'Wesley', 'abc?de')*
or
*db=SqlServer.new('172.11.22.5\\thesql', 'Wesley', 'abc?de')*


Really appreciated to any help and suggestion.

Thanks.
Wesley Chen.

[wtr-general] Can I get the content in the boolean left and right value??

[Wesley Chen]

Hi, All,
Suppose I would like to write a method like.

def test(boolean, message)
   if boolean
   puts message
   else
   puts boolean.left_value
   puts boolean.right_value
   end
end

Sometimes, I have to invoke the methods like:
test(arra.include?(arrb), arra includes arrb)

test(arra.eql?(arrb), arra equals to arrb)

When the boolean is not true, I would like to get the info why they don't
match/equal/include.


Any suggestion would be quite appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi, Chuck,

In the approach, I can abandon the verify or assert completely. I think it

Hi, All,
I have heard that, we can go on performance test, such as load/stress test
by script.
So I would like to study one script language for it.

I think in this great Watir general group, there are many testers going on
performance testing.
Any of you do the performance testing by manual script?

It is said that, python, jython by frame Grinder may be good.

Which script would be perfect to choose for the performance test?
Can you guys show your opinion and some documents/articles links?

 Exactly. Which is why threading alone isn't helpful when working with
 IE. If you are blocked, you need to spawn a process.

Now, we can use click_no_wait, select_no_wait, set_no_wait.

module Watir
class Element

#select_no_wait - selects a drop-down element spawning a new
process.
#this is needed to close potential pop-ups that select drop-down can
trigger.
def set_no_wait
assert_enabled
highlight(:set)
object = #{self.class}.new(self, :unique_number,
#{self.unique_number})
@page_container.eval_in_spawned_process(object + .set)
highlight(:clear)

[wtr-general] Unexpected error when Run the code in Netbeans.

[Wesley Chen]

I don't know whether you guys have ever met this kind of problem in
Netbeans.

1. Create a *new project* in Netbeans;
2. Create a .rb file, named *thread.rb,* in the file, only two words:
require 'watir'
puts OK
3. Run it, you will get error message:
F:\Watir project\My Test\lib/thread.rb:1:in `require': no such file to load
-- watir (LoadError)

from F:\Watir project\My Test\lib/thread.rb:1

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:10:in `require'

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:10

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb:10:in `require'

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb:10
4. in the thread.rb file, add another comment:
puts OK
5. Run it, you will get error message:
e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:176: uninitialized constant
Gem::Mutex (NameError)

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb:10:in `require'

from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ubygems.rb:10

6. Then, all the ruby code in the *netbeans project* you have created will
crash when you run it.

I met this kind of problem and search for a long time, I can't get why I get
this kind of error.
When I change the file name of thread.rb to other.rb, anything comes back.
Really weird.

Expect some experts can give me a hand, why it turns up.


Thanks.
Wesley Chen.

 Wesley,

 Have you set the run environment to use your externally installed
 Ruby instead of JRuby?

 Watir will not run under JRuby.

 Go to Tools - Ruby Platforms - and add your externally installed
 Ruby platform.  Then on each of your projects, you have to make sure
 that your project references this run environment.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir Vision

[Wesley Chen]

Hi, Bret,
I would like to ask you a question.
Watir has been a popular web automation testing tool now, so many companies
and testers have benefited from it, in fact, they benefited from your share
and creativity.
What's your next step for it? Improve the stable, recommend it more?
Some people said that, Watir maybe a potential tool for performance testing,
would you work on it, make Watir fit for performance testing or create
another Frame in Ruby for performance testing?

Thanks.
Wesley Chen.

 I'm thinking of writing more about this. If you would like to read more,
 please send questions. You can post them on the blog, or here, or send
 me private emails or twitter replies. Whatever works for you.

That maybe a frame, but I think it is not housed well enough.

Thanks.

[wtr-general] How to merge self.method into another module?

[Wesley Chen]

Hi, guys,
If I have two modules, there is one method in each of it:
module Test1
def self.hello1
end
end
module Test2
def self.hello2
end
end

Can I make the method *hello1 *as a method of module Test2?
So that, I can use *Test2.hello1* ?

Any suggestion would be quite appreciated.

Thanks.
Wesley Chen.
