Hi all, How could we find the multiple items in the select list using watir?? manually i use ctrl and click on the item for selecting multiple items.

Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting multiple terms with watir
Just select multiple items. ie.select_list(:index, 1).select(first) ie.select_list(:index, 1).select(second) After you select the second item, the first item will stay selected, it will not be unselected (in multiple select list). -- Zeljko Filipin zeljkofilipin.com ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting multiple terms with watir
I am sure there is a more elegant way and WATIR can emulate a shift-key, but I do the following: ie2.selectBox( :name Thing).select(My thing) ie2.selectBox( :name , thingAvailable).select(002) ie2.selectBox( :name , thingAvailable).select(002) ie2.selectBox( :name , thingAvailable).select(002) ie2.image(:src , /transferto_button.gif/).click Good luck!

Re: [Wtr-general] VBScript Fails with Watir
Hi Paul, Thank you for your reply. The problem i'm facing are not the expected end of statement errors. These do not appear with Watir and my application. The problem is a VBScript error where the document.all does not support the value property. In my two examples I was able to reproduce this were you not able to reproduce it? I've narrowed down the problem to the document.all call during one of Watir's click function sending an DispHTMLElementCollection with only one HTMLInputElement in it. the DispHTMLElementCollection does not have a value property and thus the error. Were you able to reproduce this problem? Thank you.

Re: [Wtr-general] Watir.. close, but not close enough
Indeed. Watir's strength for us was that we couldn't afford a huge application and all the time and training that entails, and Watir allowed us to put together a pretty comprehensive set of tests for our few websites. Creating a general-purpose framework would probably make it as complex as just using native watir/ruby anyway! It's bad enough with the number of tricks I have to play with my simple Login() function to cater for the places where it uses fields called username, usrname or user for the same thing. In which case it soon becomes easier and clearer to just use ie.text_field(:name, username).set(myuser) ie.text_field(:name, password).set(mypass) ie.button(:name, submit).click - Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=6532messageID=18986#18986 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Is this watir's limitation?
I'm not sure I understand. Watir works on the browser, like and end-user. It doesn't care if it's ASP, flat HTML, PHP or whatever. It just sees the output. Even if you're using ASP, you'll still have a frame src= structure to follow, and at some point some HTML to click on. General rule-of-thumb seems to be that if a user can browse it, Watir can test it. - Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=6623messageID=18987#18987 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

[Wtr-general] Is there an ie.goto equivalent of ie.link.click_no_wait?
I need to test that direct visits to a URL do not allow a download to happen, but because there's no link on a page for me to test, I can't use the click_no_wait method. Is there an equivalent way of visiting a URL directly, and then catch any popups? Alternatively, I notice that after a few seconds I get a wait_until timeout error, is there a way of catching this and handling it?

Re: [Wtr-general] Is this watir's limitation?
Ive worked on some applications where doing a view source from the browser didnt work. I think this was because the server was ziping the html ( I think in apache its mod_deflate) This was in the days before watir and it was a real pain to automate it. If you use irb and the ie.html methods ( or ie.frame(...).html ) you should be able to get the html Paul - Original Message - From: Cylindric [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, February 21, 2007 6:24 am Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Is this watir's limitation?

Re: [Wtr-general] Is this watir's limitation?
You might try looking at the DOM that's output with IE developer toolbar:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e59c3964-672d-4511-bb3e-2d5e1db91038displaylang=en
This is what Watir and the end user are seeing. The asp code is still
sending html output to the browser.
Microsoft uses a lot of asp to create their pages and frame contents:
require 'watir'
include Watir
ie = IE.start('http://support.microsoft.com/kb/196340')
puts ie.frame(:index, 1).html
That'll output the html from the asp page in the first frame.

Re: [Wtr-general] Print statements
Howdy,
I had a little bit of trouble getting breakpoint to work, but was finally
successful. The real interesting part is my print statements are now
working. I think I will really like this troubleshooting approach. Thanks
again!
I am in the process of migrating our testing framework over to Watir 1.5.
My script works flawlessly on Watir 1.4.1, but the script becomes suspended
on Watir 1.5.1.1145 after clicking on an image in a pop-up.
It appears to me that the attached window is not closing properly after the
last line of code is executed for the pop-up.
Any suggestions or opinions would be most welcome.
It is not obvious to me why this script does not work in Watir 1.5.1.
Here is the error I am getting by entering the next line of code in IRB.

Re: [Wtr-general] Is this watir's limitation?
Thank you very much. It works now. I still don't understand why it didn't work before. One mistake I was doing was, using frame index from 0 instead of 1 but frame name didn't work either. Only difference between yesterday and today is new build. Anyway it works now.

[Wtr-general] Nested Frames
Hi Guys, I am currently trying to use Watir (1.5.1.1158) to test Web applications in our organization. The web application i am trying to build test around have a number of Frames and IFrames and in a number of cases heavily nested. I am currently facing problems where the wait command is not able to determine if a sub-frames have loaded consequently causing some of the tests to fail. This problem was raised a while ago in the following post: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wtr-general/2005-May/001724.html But no conclusive answer was agreed upon. I have used the code provided in the post to try and meet my needs. Is there a better or more stable way of handling heavily nested frames.

Re: [Wtr-general] Watir.. close, but not close enough
John Lolis wrote: I don't feel that its a problem Watir needs to solve. If the community really did want some framework I think it would be a project separate from Watir. I'm not even sure a project like that would work. Every application that needs testing is probably going to need a slightly different approach. If someone attempts to write a 'be all end all' framework its probably going to end up very complex and hard to understand (see most commercial testing packages). To some degree I agree. However, our user's guide tells people how to use Watir with Test::Unit and so a lot of people group them together. Indeed, we've had so many complaints about the poor fit of this unit testing framework for system acceptance testing that I've included Watir::TestCase in the recent versions of Watir 1.5. Namely, this TestCase executes its test methods in the order defined and also supplies verify methods that work like assert, but don't abort a test case when they fail. These were the two most common complaints with Test::Unit itself by Watir users. But i do agree that there is a value to keeping Watir small and flexible and it seems to me that it would probably be better to migrate this new TestCase subclass to some other project. It could still be used by Watir users, but they would be free to use whatever test harness they wanted: Test::Unit or Rspec or this new thing or maybe something they built themselves.
