[wtr-general] watir suite hanging issue
Hi All, This is Mahesh. Am new to this community and this is my first post. please share if you have any idea for the below problem I'm working with a web applicatio that sometimes hangs in the middle of a test. Is there a way to automate this with Watir? (way to proceed by refreshing the browser) I do something like this: * Start the test suite * Monitor browser activity. If there is no response/activity for a certain amount of time, refresh the browser and try to continue. * Finish the test.

Plesae keep them coming. I tend to load up a bunch of pages in my browser and then refresh at a regular interval. Every day for example when I come home from the office. I only tend to keep very active things on RSS feeds, like usenet lists etc. Great Blog, please keep at it. I've learnt quite a bit already.

[wtr-general] String to watir object
Hi, I have a string value of :href and want to use it in ie.link(:href, 'bla').click. So the value of :href in the link function must be replaced by the string value. Therefore I need to do some conversion I think, but I don't know how. Any suggestion? Cheers, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Watir General group.

Does this help clarify this issue?

[wtr-general] Re: watir suite hanging issue
I had a problem like this before and the workaround I used was to kick off a thread that checked something in the browser every so often to make sure that it wan't stuck. In my script I did something like this: def check_for_freeze(browser) # Kick off a new thread and keep checking the url Thread.new do while sleep(30) first_url = browser.url sleep(300) second_url = browser.url if (first_url == second_url) puts The browser got stuck and had to be refreshed. # you can put this in your test log instead if you want. browser.refresh end end Of course this is a workaround so you have to be careful if you do something like this. For instance in this example if the URLs match by coincidence it will refresh the browser even though nothing is wrong. You could work around this by adding more checks and only refreshing if it's the same five times in a row or something like that.

[wtr-general] Issue with the wrapper built around the .text method in Firewatir
Hi all,
We had tried to build a wrapper around the .text method in FireWatir
as below:-
#obj is the object we want to fetch the text of
htmlIp= obj.html
htmlbrs=htmlIp.split(br)
textIp= obj.text
finalstr=
for i in 0..htmlbrs.length-1
#cleaning of tags
tagCounter=0
htmlPart=(htmlbrs[i]).split('')
htmlPart2=''
for j in 0..htmlPart.length-1
if htmlPart[j] ==
tagCounter=tagCounter+1
elsif htmlPart[j] ==
tagCounter=tagCounter-1
elsif tagCounter == 0
htmlPart2=htmlPart2+htmlPart[j]
end
end
#checking for the text
if textIp.include? htmlPart2 then
if i==0 then
finalstr=htmlPart2
else
finalstr=finalstr+\n+ htmlPart2
end
end
end
The final text is returned in the variable - finalstr.
This successfully cleans up any extra tags that are returned in the
text. This fails when the extra characters in the returned text are
not tags rather they are characters like amp, nbsp etc. Kindly
advise as to how to incorporate the cleaning of the text with respect
to the same.
