Re: [Wtr-general] Menu links have duplicate attributes

2007-01-15 Thread gdx
Hi,

sorry for my english.

Maybe you can use .csv or excel file to read 
the number index who match with the connected profil.

If you use this 'tips', i think you'll win time the next time, index will 
change in your application. You'll have to modify just one file instead of all 
.rb file ...

i hope i help you !

Re: [Wtr-general] Menu links have duplicate attributes

2007-01-08 Thread Paul Carvalho

I also have duplicate menu names in one of our apps.  I just use the link's
index number instead.  It's not as nice or convenient as using the text, but
I don't mind hard-coding a link index every now and then if it means I can
get on with the test and move onto the next thing.

I am now using ie.frame(left).link(:title, Edit News).click
(example).  This has now caused a problem because we have two links, both of
them with the same title, but within different directory folders in the menu
tree.

Does anybody know of a solution to this problem?

Re: [Wtr-general] Menu links have duplicate attributes

2007-01-08 Thread John Lolis
Are either of the Edit News links contained within another element (table?). 
You may be able to do something like

ie.frame('whatever').table(:id,'table1').link(:title,'Edit News')

and

ie.frame('whatever').table(:id,'table2').link(:title,'Edit News')

like the other poster said though, a hard index isn't going to be the end of 
the world if nothing else works. You could also approach the developer and ask 
for a tag that would work better for you, its always an option.

Good luck.

One way is to use some attribute other than [title].

Another is to try asking for testability--that is, getting the developers to
change it.  Sometimes that's easy--and sometimes it's desirable from points
of view other than testability.
