[Wtr-general] Error selecting links within nested iFrame?
Hi, I'm running Watir 1.4.1 and Ruby 1.8.4. I'm getting UnknownObjectException when trying to click a link within an iframe within a frame. Commands as follows: This command succeeds: $ie.frame(buttonFrame).frame(linksFrame).contains_text(/CVS Revision/) These commands fail with the UnknownObjectExceptions: $ie.frame(buttonFrame).frame(linksFrame).link(:text, test1).click $ie.frame(buttonFrame).frame(linksFrame).link(:id, link_id).click The iframe with name linksFrame is the delivered links1.html unit testing file from the Watir 1.4.1 gem. Is this a known issue? I don't see it in the OpenQA database as far as I can tell. I'll clean up my tests and send a modified frames unit test and the necessary HTML files if that is desired. Thanks, Ethan ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Error selecting links within nested iFrame?
Bug submitted, but the situation gets curiouser and curiouser. My unit test seem to indicate that I can't .click links in any frame. I can't imagine that no one else has had this problem, so I have to assume that it's relatively unique to my setup. The bug report is bug 113, link: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-113 I've attached a modified frame_test.rb and the necessary .html files, so if someone feels like taking a minute to test, that would be appreciated. I will continue investigate further and attempt to determine whether this shows up in Watir 1.5.

Re: [Wtr-general] Error selecting links within nested iFrame?
Thanks Paul, for confirming that this works. I'll close my bug. The
problem I was seeing originally must be unrelated to the click method
on links in frames.
I'm trying to test pages generated by SAP WebDynPro ABAP components,
which is a real pain, so it's likely that I missed something in
writing my original test and then was led astray by using the wrong
assertion type. I'll inform the list if I figure out what the problem
is. I'm sure you're all on tender-hooks : )
Bret,
I'm joining the wtr-development list, where this discussion probably
belongs. But my preferred behavior of ie.element(*).method (where
method is something like click or flash) would be for it to
return the ie.element(*) object if successful and return an exception
if unsuccessful. That way, if I'm not mistaken, one could do things
like ie.element(*).flash.click.click to click an object twice and then
make it flash.
However, that's a discussion of general behavior that I'm sure will
take a good deal of hashing out, especially if Watir's wait behavior
precludes it. I haven't spent a great deal of time in the Watir code
to determine how this sort of thing would work, but it's on the list
of things to do this weekend.
Thanks for all the help,
Ethan

Paul,
Thanks for looking at this.
Ethan,
What did you want assert ie.thing.click to be checking? That an error
wasn't raised? If so you should be using assert_nothing_raised
{ie.thing.click}.
The return value of click and many other methods has not really been
defined. In Watir 1.5, click happens to return the amount of time that
it took to load the page after the click. It sounds like it simply
return nil in 1.4. If people have opinions regarding what the return
values of such methods should be, i am happy to hear them. We haven't
really given much attention to this in the past, and i'm not sure
whether people really care.

Re: [Wtr-general] Checking whether images inside a table are enabled or disabled
Vijay,
It is hard to tell what, exactly, you are looking for without an
example of what an enabled object looks like *and* what a disabled
object looks like.
However, it looks to me like Watir 1.5.1.1127 supports the following
methods for every object on a web-page:
exists?
enabled?
attribute_value(attribute_name)
I think at least one of these can be used to solve your problem.

Re: [Wtr-general] How does one access a web page element by its css class?
Nathan, I believe that in 1.5.1127, you can also loop through images and check the class attribute. @ie = Watir::IE.new @ie.goto(http://somepage.com) @ie.images.each do |image| if image.attribute_value(class) == btn_viewResults # Image found else # This image isn't the one end end I don't think it does regular expression matches, but maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: [Wtr-general] How does one access a web page element by its css class?
Actually, of course it does regular expression matches, they're just regular Ruby regular expressions because there's no need to do a regular expression match in the .attribute_value method call.

Re: [Wtr-general] How to handle javascript pop ups from drop down lists
Akash, Hopefully someone has a simpler solution, but my solution was to mixin (using a module) a new method to the offending class (in your case SelectList) called select_no_wait(item). The contents of this method would be the same as the select(item) method, but without the @container.wait. My problem was with the IE.goto method, not with list selection, so the execution won't be quite the same, but the idea is there.

Re: [Wtr-general] How to handle javascript pop ups from drop down lists
This is what I did to the goto method: File Name: watir_mixin.rb * module WatirMixin def goto_no_wait(url) # These are the contents of the Watir::goto method, without the wait call @ie.navigate(url) # I also left of the explicit return value because I don't use it end end * Then, in my test case: * require '../../watir_mixin.rb' require 'watir' include Watir class IE include WatirMixin end class Watir::Frame include WatirMixin end ie = Watir::IE.new ie.goto_no_wait(http://site_with_popup_during_load.com;) I think you can do almost the same thing with a mixin module for the SelectList class: Find the class in the watir.rb file. Find the select(item) method (which calls another method, to complicate things). Copy the contents of the method with the guts of select(item). In your mixin module, define a new method called select_no_wait(item) or something similar. Paste in the contents from the previous paragraph. Delete the @container.wait line. And you should be good to go. Past results are no guarantee of future performance, etc. Also, using mixins like this, I believe you run a risk of getting stepped on by methods added to future releases of Watir that happen to have the same name as methods you have defined in mixins. Questions for the list: 1) Is there an easier way to do this? 2) If not, what with the growing popularity of javascript events triggered by such things as list selection, button clicking, etc, would it be a popular idea to start defining a framework for alternate behaviors like no_wait of action methods like click, goto, select, etc? One suggestion: All action methods take an optional hash as a parameter, allowing for click(:no_wait = true) to have the same behavior as click_no_wait. In Akash's case, he could use select(item, :no_wait = true). I'd be happy to contribute some test cases if this sounds like a decent approach.

Re: [Wtr-general] Installation Problem
It's been a while since I tried an executable installer so I'm not sure about your specific problem. It looks like you've got a space in your path, which can cause problems in some scripts. As with all things Ruby, it tends to be easier to go the Ruby Way and use the gem installer. Figuring out the Ruby Way is the hard part : ) If you open your command prompt and type: gem install watir That should install Watir 1.4.1 as a Ruby gem, which will probably take care of the issue. You'll then be able to find the Watir install and unit tests under ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir . . . where the first ruby is your root ruby install directory. If that command (gem) is not a recognized command, then you do indeed have a path issue, and you might want to try reinstalling ruby under the C:\ directory, or following a howto on adding a directory to your PATH like http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm.

[Wtr-general] Wait issue with file_field.set, solution
I think that the addition of the click to file_field.set in this change (see thread below) is causing one of my tests to hang during the @container.wait in the click method. However, this problem didn't show up until after the changes to the wait functionality in mid-February. Or so my theory goes . . . The fix, in my case, is to change the click to a click! in file_field.set, by-passing the @container.wait in the click method. I suppose I could use a time-out technique instead. I can't provide a test case, unfortunately, because I don't have a handle on all the javascript eventing and fancy ajax-y reload in various frames that's going on in a generated SAP business server pages app. I think this is a relatively well-known issue with ajax-like apps. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Attached is a patch to the 1.5.1163 revision that illustrates the way I've modified watir.rb to allow me to specify wait behavior in the file_field.set method. The watir 1.5.1163 - no_wait option in file_field.set.patch basically throws any extra arguments on file_field.set into an args_hash Hash. The set method then checks for the :no_wait key and either clicks or click!s based on that key. So, file_field.set(path) results in a click file_field.set(path, :no_wait = false) results in a click file_field.set(path, :no_wait = true) results in a click! The upside here is that this doesn't change existing behavior. The downside is that it is kind of a hack as it stands. I think that implementing this sort of functionality in a more general (and perhaps better thought-out) way would give a lot of flexibility to those of us dealing with ajax goodness to manually override wait functionality when necessary. It might also be a reasonably standard way to allow granular control of other functionality on a method-call by method-call basis. Is this reasonable? Has something like this been decided against in the past? Is it too big a change for 1.5? Thoughts on problems? Improvements? Maybe using :wait = false instead of :no_wait = true would be more intuitive? I don't think this patch is ready to go into the code-base as it stands, even if people think it is a reasonable approach, but I'll submit a Jira ticket once I have something that I think will work.

Re: [Wtr-general] Tables nested in a div
John, I believe the .tables method returns an array of all the tables within div, so .tables[0] will return the first table in the div.

There are many such menus and I can find the surrounding div (by id), but there is no other way to find the table (it doesn't have a predictable index, for example). So what I want is to ask the Div for the table -- where it is in fact, the only nested table). E.g. menu = mainFrame.div(:id, menuId) menuTable = menu.table(:index, 1) menuTable[ 4 ][ 1 ].click Alas, this doesn't work out of the box -- Watir assumes that you always want to find tables nested in the document, so it errors out on menu.table() saying that there is no document. As tables are commonly nested in divs, and as far as I can see, adding a table method to the Div class wouldn't break any current code, is there any reason why Div couldn't do something like this? class Watir::Div def table( how, what ) if how == :index @o.getElementsByTagName( 'table' )[what.to_s] Table.new(@ieController, :from_object, table) else super.table( how, what ) end end end The table method overrides the super class for :index, but not for :id (which should be unique, so it doesn't need special handling). It certainly does make the code snipped abpve work. I haven't done any exhaustive tests to see if it breaks anything, but I can't think of any scenario where it could.

Re: [Wtr-general] How to access browser authentication pop-up
Oscar,
In my experience, the easiest thing to do is to hack up your goto
method to allow for an option that doesn't wait for the page to load
before passing back control to your script. Then, assuming you can
get your username and password saved in your browser, you can just use
AutoIT to send an Enter keystroke to clear the dialog with a
successful login.
There's a patch (the larger) attached to this issue that contains such
a code change and allows you to use the syntax below for the goto
method: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-146
NOTE: This will not work without aforementioned patch!
@application_base = http://yoursite.com;
$ie.goto(@application_base, :wait = false)
sleep 7
@autoit = WIN32OLE.new('AutoItX3.Control')
@autoit.Send {ENTER}
@autoit = nil
sleep 5
Once you get that working, you could experiment with using AutoIT or
the WinClicker that comes with Watir (I've never really been able to
get this to work, but YMMV) to populate usernames and passwords in the
dialog. Maybe someone else can give an example . . .

Hello, thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
I'm trying to begin writing a test for an internal app. The website uses
simple Apache Browser authentication so it pops up with a Windows-looking
authentication window.
I've searched high and low for help on this but I can't find how to interact
with this so I thought I'd ask here.
I've searched for: windows security browser authentication login
logon login pop up default browser pop up and a bunch of other terms. I
can't find anything related... google, or here.
How do I go about entering a username and password on this? I tried using irb
to and all_objects to see if i could find anything but the moment I go to the
site, irb will be just waiting for the page to finish loading so I can't even
query it to see what is available to me.
Any ideas? Here's a screenshot of the window I get just so you see exactly
what I'm talking about.

Re: [Wtr-general] JS Alert from a checkbox
This (http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-146) ticket and patch outlines a possible framework for dealing with this throughout watir. Might be a decent reason to vote for the feature on Jira. In the meantime, the method of modifying the methods in watir.rb in the patch should work for your problem as well, but you'll be stuck patching watir.rb every time you install.

Re: [Wtr-general] Using an ie.table.each do |row| loop when the page in the ie window refreshes itself
Ian,
Reloading probably invalidates the table object, resulting in your
Access denied error when ruby goes back for the next row in the
table.
Suggestion: Assuming that submitting and reloading doesn't affect the
table layout, use rows.each_with_index to build an array of indices of
relevant rows. Then cycle through the array clicking and submitting.
For instance (untested, unfortunately):
rows_to_click = Array.new
ie.table(:index, 29).rows.each_with_index do |row, i|
rows_to_click i if (row[1].text =~ /#{journals}/) != nil
end
rows_to_click.each do |i|
[Do the clicking and such for row i here.]
end
This could be made substantially prettier, but hopefully it gets the job done.

doRolesPopup fills out a form in the cw page, then clicks submit. The
submit button submits the form, then closes the cw window and reloads
the ie window. This reload of the page referenced by the ie object
appears to break the row object, since I get the following error:

Is there any way to keep this simple .each loop, or do I need to work

Re: [Wtr-general] click link in iframe?
Mihai, What is the code you are trying to use to click this menu link? It will need to be something like ie.frame(:index, 1).link(:text, Link text here).click You might want to consider using something like the IE Developer Toolbar or Firebug to see what is inside the iframe.
