[wtr-general] wait for new click event..
I wish to record URL of each page I visit using Watir.
I have come up with the below coding.
require 'watir'
ie = Watir::IE.start(http://www.testsite.com;)
file = File.open(c:/test_URL.txt, a)
0.upto(1000) { |f|
file.puts ie.url()
sleep 5
}
file.close
with code above, I need to click new web link every 5 seconds
exactly. I REALLY CANNOT MAKE SURE I VISIT / CLICK TO PAGE EVERY 5
SECONDS.
Would it be possible to ignite
file.puts ie.url()
when I just click a link on the current page while above watir code
is on the page??
I look through google search, but i couldn't find anything that could
help me.
I WISH WATIR CODE THAT WILL NOTICE NEW CLICK BY THE USER.. and then
ignite file.puts ie.url() when click event occurs.
thanks.

The web site I start with WATIR has special security measure, and link URL does not show in html. all I can do to visit the link is to click the text on the page manually. now I would like to visit each link manually, and record its URL using file.puts ie.url() so I wish watir code to recognize that I have clicked a new link, and whenever I click new link, record its URL in the text file. thanks.

[wtr-general] Re : Re: Re : Re: Re : Re: Re : Re: Re : Watir is slow with nested frames
Le samedi 27 août 2011 14:55:20 UTC+2, Jarmo Pertman a écrit :
Okay, i have looked into this issue now. I've set a breakpoint just
before the #text_field invocation and didn't see as many invocations
as you did (didn't count them, but it was something in the lines of ~5
times). I don't understand where did you get that number 1536.
I got this number from the ruby profiler by adding requre 'profile' at the
beginning of test_frame.rb.
When I count the calls of assert_exists programmatically, by adding $x+=1 in
the body of assert_exists and puts $x at the end of the program, I get 512
(obviously the profiler counts three times too many).
But still this is much too many! You can also add puts #{@what} to the body
of assert_exists to see exactly for which elements this method is called and
recalled before the actual set is done.
Anyway, i looked at the code and saw that everything that can be done
is already done.
I am not so pessimistic.
All caches are dangerous if not implemented properly
I agree
and your patch breaks the point of assert_exists:
1) the element is located at the first place
2) the element is removed from the DOM, e.g. assert_exists should fail
3) your patch returns the previously located element, e.g. the
assert_exists doesn't fail
Also, this makes #exists? also return true although it should return
false.
Two responses:
1) For cases with no frames: Each time assert_exists is called for a
given element by the method set (or any other method that interacts with
this element), it is first called for each frame containig this element, so
surely the cache will change and the element will be relocated.
2) For cases with no frames: Each time when you interact with a different
element (ie., with different locators), the cache changes. So to reproduce
your scenario I should do something like that:
- set my_text_field to a value
- wait till my_text_field is removed from the DOM (without Watir interacting
with any other element, as interacting would change the cache)
- set again my_text_field to a value (or do something else to my_text_field)
I can hardly imagine a need for such a test scenario in real life.
In conclusion, i'd still say that the application which uses 7 nested
() frames is really badly made and should be rewritten anyway. No
offence.
No offence! I have already said it is not me who created the application!
So, it is just one really bad corner-case where it's slower
than usual, but unfortunately i don't see any good solution at this
moment how to solve it for everyone.
Just one really bad corner-case, and I am just in it!
I guess you can use #value for
that specific case, but i'm pretty sure you will also have slower
invocations with other methods.
Yes, the problem concerns every interaction with elements placed within
nested frames.
Also, one solution would be to open that frame directly in your
browser instead of accessing it through all the other 6 frames.
Something like this with this concrete example or just create some
helper module, which could generate the correct url:
my_frame=ie.frame(:name, '7.6').frame(:name, '6.5').frame(:name,
'5.4').frame(:name, '4.3').frame(:name, '3.2').frame(:name,
'2.1').frame(:name, '1.0')
ie.goto ie.url.gsub(/\d+\.html$/, my_frame.src)
ie.text_field(:name, 'edit_box').set('123456789')
This would mean cutting the application into pieces (a piece per frame). And
these pieces will most probably not behave as the whole application...

[wtr-general] Re: how do I select li link with id from a jquery dynamic list
The registration process was too tedious :(
By looking at you html then indeed, the ul is empty. As long as it's empty
then you can't find the li :) Are you sure that the li should be there?
Maybe it's a timing issue. Try something like this:
# do something to trigger the popup
wait_until {div(:id = industry).ul.lis.size 0}
What happens? Can you see that the list is filled and does it still timeout?
Anyway, i suspect it is a timing issue - just find out some nice way to say
to Watir that wait as long as this condition is met meaning that the list
is loaded properly. As long as the ul is empty and there should be li-s in
there, Watir can't find the li's. Also, remember that Watir does most of the
things a lot faster than you can do manually and having JavaScript in the
game means that there could be some race conditions.
Good luck!

[wtr-general] Re: how do I select li link with id from a jquery dynamic list
I used jQuery to fill these radios at one point:
$(input[type=radio]).attr(checked, checked) :)
But the problem was in the end that you clicked on the li, but you had to
click on the link inside of the li. This code works for me:
require watir
b = Watir::Browser.attach :url, //
b.link(:id = launchIndustry).click
b.li(:id = industry_Basic_Materials).when_present.a.click
