[wtr-general] OLE

2009-03-26 Thread Vikas Tulashyam

Hi Guys,
I want to create a method by which I can perform any operation on a
object by just passing the identifier of that object. In Watir , we
need to call specific methods for calling a particular object as--

ie.text_filed(:id, 'Text1').set('Test')

So, Can I impelment my method using win32OLE . e.g. --

require 'win32ole'
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ie.visible = true
ie.navigate(http://www.google.com;)
ie.document.all[q].value = pickaxe
ie.document.all[btnG].click



Is this a good way to create a function which performs an operation on
all object types by just passing identifier as --

def click(sObjectId)

ie.document.all[sObjectId].click

end


Please reply. I will be thankful for your cooperation.

Thanks
Vikas

Watir uses activesupport and i think this modifies the logger. Or maybe 
its another gem that Watir uses. Not sure really, but i think it's 
something like that.

 I've seen something similar when I moved my test machines from 1.5.3 
 to 1.6.2 gem. My custom logger has stopped generating timestamps and 
 severity and only outputted messages.
 My custom Logger class methods were not executed. Logger class from 
 somewhere else was receiving my calls.
 I've also moved to Logging gem as part of my move to 1.6.2 Watir and I 
 never figured out this problem.

 P.S. Logging gem works great for me with Watir. I like the simple 
 appenders so I can output to different files and to stdout as well.

 Hi,

 I am using a logger to log statements to a file when running watir 
 scripts. The logger has a format specified. However I am experiencing 
 irregular behaviour when I for example call 
 Watir::Simple#new_browser_at() where it loses the format and just 
 outputs the statement. All other statements after this seem to lose 
 the formatting too.

 Example steps are

 log = Logger.new(logfile.log)

 log.debug(Starting my watir test) = [01-01-2009 10:23:23] [INFO] - 
 Starting my watir test # As expected

 b = Watir::Simple.new()

 log.debug(opening browser) = [01-01-2009 10:23:24] [INFO] - 
 opening browser # As expected

 b.new_browser_at(http://google.com;) # browser takes a few seconds to 
 fire up.

 log.debug(browser open at google.com http://google.com) = 
 browser open at google.com http://google.com # Loses formatting 
 from here onwards

 My code wraps these calls up in other methods but not doing anything 
 else. Any ideas why the formatting is lost? It seems it happens when 
 it waits for the browser to fire up.

 Thanks

What happens if you select the item again. Does it get unselected?

I thought clear would clear one option, but looks like it clears them all.

[wtr-general] Re: 'click_no_wait' command in Firewatir

2009-03-26 Thread Angrez Singh
Bret,

Do we need to implement this in FireWatir? I looked through the code in
Watir basically it spawns a new process  click the button in that process?
I think the basic reason to do this is that if javascript pop up comes we
can handle that. Correct?  There is a way to do that in FireWatir. This
will un-neccessarily increase the complexity of handling pop ups (which
already is complex :) )

 Hi,
 
 I have installed the ruby 1.8.6 and WATIR 1.6.2.
 
 Then I have created a simple to start with. Following is the code of
 that script.
 
 require 'test/unit'
 require 'watir'
 
 class GoogleHomePage  Test::Unit::TestCase
   def test_there_should_be_text_About_Google
 browser = Watir::IE.start http://www.google.com;
 assert(browser.pageContainsText(About Google))
   end
 end
 
 The above code opens the site but it stops at that point.
 
 How can I determine whether my test has passed or fail? Where are the
 results normally gets stored?
 
 Thanks  Regards
 Durgesh.

[wtr-general] Re: 'click_no_wait' command in Firewatir

2009-03-26 Thread Bret Pettichord

The purpose of click_no_wait is to support the following logic flow.

1. click button
2. handle popup

This was particularly important with the showModalDialogs, but these, of 
course, only work with IE. Previously you had to do this.

1. start popup handler
2. click button

This inverted logic was confusing to some.

But what we really need is a browser/platform independent way of 
handling popup dialogs.

In my experience, when you do not get a reply, that means you should be more

For example, I just did not understand the problem.

You could bundle what every you like with your framework. In my example, I
have a custom framework, I bundle snapit.exe that takes screens shots and I
have no problems with that.

What Java tool did you have in mind, and why do you think there will be a

[wtr-general] FireWatir sometimes fails when Firefox takes time to load

2009-03-26 Thread Kevin White

I've noticed that my tests will fail sometimes because Firefox takes
too long to load. For example, I just went to launch a test for the
first time this day, and I received this error:

  1) Error:
test_08_visiting_direct_links_goes_to_login
(TC_EWWC_StandardBasics_Login_FireFox):
Watir::Exception::UnableToStartJSShException: Unable to connect to

Other times, I get that nil:NilClass error if the browser somehow
doesn't respond.

This is especially a problem if Firefox has to run an update check,
although I can just turn that off in the Firefox options. Has anyone
else seen this?

[wtr-general] Browser.url does not return proper URL immediately after a browser.goto statement

2009-03-26 Thread Kevin White

I'm trying to test that a web application always redirects back to a
login page if you try to go to one of the application's pages when
you're not logged in.

First, I do:

browser.goto(http://www.pagethatredirects.com;)

Then, I look at the contents of @browser.url and I get about: blank,
which is what my firefox install opens up to.

From what I've read, Watir/firewatir should be waiting until the page
is loaded before executing the browser.url statement. I'm basing that
on: http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/How+to+wait+with+Watir

However, that isn't really working the way I expect. Should I be using
wait_until?

I'm trying to test that a web application always redirects back to a
login page if you try to go to one of the application's pages when
you're not logged in.

First, I do:

browser.goto(http://www.pagethatredirects.com;)

Then, I look at the contents of @browser.url and I get about: blank,
which is what my firefox install opens up to.

From what I've read, Watir/firewatir should be waiting until the page
is loaded before executing the browser.url statement. I'm basing that
on:http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/How+to+wait+with+Watir

However, that isn't really working the way I expect. Should I be using
wait_until?

[wtr-general] Re: Need to find text of an element using watir

2009-03-26 Thread Mark Anderson

Something like browser.text ?

Can you give us an understanding of the larger problem you are trying to
solve?  

Can you show us the code that you've tried, the results they have given, and
the reason why the results are not what you are looking for?

 Hi Thanks for the reply but we want to get the text of all the element
 by using a single method and not the object itself.
 So is it possible in Watir? Do we have any method like getText() which
 returns the text for all the elements.
 
 Thanks

2009-03-26 Thread Bret Pettichord

So to answer your original question. Opening and closing the browser all 
the time is what you are doing wrong.

If you must do this, you should use the Watir::IE.new_process to open 
the new browsers. This will avoid the error you are seeing.

[wtr-general] Classes and Modules and Defs and understanding and referencing correctly

2009-03-26 Thread Jason

I've got a bunch of scripts that I load and include.  Seems like
the sensible thing to do:

load 'global.rb'
include Global
load 'login.rb'
include Login
etc, etc.

In the above login.rb, there's the following:

def login(username, password)
yada yada 
end

However I'm also loading a *whole* lot of other scripts from a
completely different watir library (for another application works
alongside this application under test).

Within this is another piece of code with another def with the same
name as above:

def login(username, password)
yada yada different stuff 
end


* Firstly, is there something completely wrong with doing this?  Both
Apps have their own Login screen which differ slightly, I think I'd
like to keep the login script for each different.

* When I run login({username}, {password}) it tends to pickup the
incorrect Module and try to execute the *other* version of login().
Any way I can force which one it should use?

* Anyone got any good links for understanding Classes / Modules / Def
a little better.  I think I'm failing to understand this completely.

2009-03-26 Thread orde

Regarding bulletpoints 2 and 3:

If you reference the module name before the method, you'll run the
appropriate method (e.g Module.method vs. method)

Take a look at http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/.
Specifically: Classes, Objects and Variables; and Modules (both links
listed in the left hand nav).

Thanks Bret.
I guess the alternative is to use the same browser but I would need to
use Watir::IE.find which might be as troublesome.
