Hi,

I am trying to install Watir 1.6.5 on Ruby 1.9.1, but this is the
issue. I am encountering:

 Same thing, but good suggestion.

 I am not even sure of the differences between eval and execScript.

[wtr-general] Re: Delete cookies in Firewatir

2009-11-19 Thread aidy lewis

Angrez et al

It is unlikely that we would want to get all cookies, but get cookies
for a particular uri.

browser.get_cookies('www.google.com')

How about
remove_cookies(:domain = 'domain')
remove_cookies(:all)

add_cookie is good.

Aidy

2009/11/19 Angrez Singh ang...@gmail.com:
 Bret proposed the following syntax or method names via Google Wave, so we
 should stick to this:

 Browser#cookies (get cookies as ruby array of hashes)

 Browser#add_cookie(opts) where opts is a hash of :name, :value, :path,
 :secure and :name/:value will raise ArgumentError if not supplied

 Browser#remove_cookie(opts) where opts is a hash of :domain and :name

 Browser#remove_all_cookies or Browser#remove_cookie(:all)?

 Thanks,

 Angrez

Angrez,

Sounds good. Would you like me to write them?

I can either push them to my fork or just email them to you.

I will be just doing the FireWatir ones, as I am unsure on what method
we should use for Watir.

Will start with and include tests.

Aidy

2009/11/18 Angrez Singh ang...@gmail.com:
 How about this:
 browser.set_cookie(:name = name, :value = value)
 browser.delete_cookie(:name = name)
 browser.delete_all_cookies()

 I want these methods to be with Browser as cookies are related to browser.
 Thoughts?

 I've never used it. I would like to hear from some people who have. What
 functionality do you use the cookiemanager for?

[wtr-general] Re: Slightly OT: using two ie objects for execScript

2009-11-04 Thread aidy lewis

I was wondering whether it was a good idea to have an ie attribute in
an IE class?

Aidy

2009/11/3 Ethan notet...@gmail.com:
 you are not using two Watir::IE objects there. I assume you are referring to
 the ie.ie - the first ie is the local variable 'ie' which is an instance
 of Watir::IE. the second is the #ie method of Watir::IE, which returns the
 win32ole object representing the browser.

Hi,

Cucumber or Rspec? I will add to zeljko's link today. The example
doesn't even use matchers.

Richard Downie has a Waitr\Cucumber example here:
http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/watircuke, but I don't
agree with his approach.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a verified Windows Ruby 1.9.1 installer?

Aidy

2009/10/5 Charley Baker charley.ba...@gmail.com:
 Watir in the github master should be working with 1.9.1. Jari made some
 fixes, so for Watir we should be good. The one dependency we do have on
 user-choices isn't working. Talked to Jari on Sat, he pinged Brian Marick to
 update it a while back, said he would, but hasn't yet. I'd suggest we hit
 Brian up again and either have him make the changes or push to github so it
 can be more easily forked. That's a bit simplistic, but without going into
 the details that's more or less what it boils down to.

[wtr-general] Re: example problem

2009-06-03 Thread aidy lewis

Chuck,

Your comments are highly simplistic: We still have differences with
list based indexes; Watir being one based and Firewatir zero based
(as Watir wraps OLE and FireWatir, javascipt), the text representation
of the HTML (browser.text), #click_no_wait, and to my knowledge
parallelism.

Aidy

2009/6/2 Chuck van der Linden sqa...@gmail.com:

 To be more clear, the current version of Watir has integrated in the
 Firewatir driver..  so you get both Watir and Firewatir when you
 install it.

 Most functions are pretty much equally supported on both browsers.
 and the way things work you now institute an instance of 'browser'
 which can be either IE or FF, and call most of your methods against
 that.
  (see http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Browser.new)

 The nice thing is that now I have scripts that do things like:
 browser.link(:text, clickme).click   and they can be developed
 against either IE or FireFox, and then quickly switched (via a few
 different methods depending on what works best for you) to run against
 the other browser.

 not all of the tutorial and sample code has caught up to the new
 paradigm, so you will see a lot of code there, and also posted here,
 where people will write 'ie.method..'  and 'ff.method...'    but now
 adays we'd typically say 'browser.method' (and some will shorten that
 to bro.method, or br, or just b  (although there's a bit of a
 preference style wise among ruby programmers to only use single letter
 variables for iterators) )

 Hopefully that eliminates a bit of the confusion instead of just
 causing more.

[wtr-general] Re: Check div for null return

2009-06-03 Thread aidy lewis

The predicate '?' in Ruby indicates that the method returns a Boolean.

The wait_for? method will 'yield' if that block is true.

And then we are asserting whether that block is true or false.

 Can I just use a simple if to do that thou? Something simple such as

   if boolean = true
     puts 'Test Passed'
   else
     puts 'Test Failed'

xUnit saves you from writing your own assertions (as above). Although
I believe it to be of the wrong narrative for business facing tests.

[wtr-general] setting browser through rake

2009-04-27 Thread aidy lewis

Hi,

Has anyone managed to set the browser through Rake?


rake
require 'cucumber/rake/task'
require 'watir'


Cucumber::Rake::Task.new(default, features) do |t|
  t.cucumber_opts = -f TeamCityFormatter -f html --out story-results.html
end

task :ff do
  ENV['ENVIRONMENT']='systest'
  Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox'
  Rake.application[default].execute
end

task :ie do
  ENV['ENVIRONMENT']='systest'
  Watir::Browser.default = 'ie'
  Rake.application[default].execute
end
/rake

CI
rake ie
rake ff
/CI

As I get the default browser of Firefox, for both of the above commands.

Thanks

This was a non-standard HTML attribute so I had to use

and then I was able to invoke raw DOM methods upon it.

 what did you try?  that looks like a simple link to me, you should be

 without seeing a larger sample of the html surrounding that item, it's
 difficult to know why you might not have been able to address it, but
 offhand I'd start by asking if perhaps it's inside a frame or
 something?

 did you try using the IE developer toolbar to have a look at that item

[wtr-general] Re: Retaining variables between tests in a thread-safe manner

2009-02-05 Thread aidy lewis

You could use a Singleton or pass your browser object around as a parameter.

Aidy

2009/2/5 Justin Ko justin.t...@gmail.com:

 We are creating a smoke test for our web based application using the
 Test/Unit module in Ruby (v1.8.6) with Watir (v1.6.2).

 The smoke test would consist of a series of tests such as:

 Test 1: Open an IE browser and goto to the application's home page
 Test 2: Sign into the application
 Test 3: Test some feature that is accessible to the signed in user
 Test 4: Test some other feature that is accessible to the signed in
 user

 We would like to:
 1) Use the same browser (Watir::IE object) throughout the entire
 series of tests and
 2) Be able to run the smoke test multiple times concurrently.

 In trying to do this, we are running into problems with variable
 scope.

 When we assigned the Watir::IE object to an instance variable (@), the
 variable appeared to be destroyed during the teardown of each test.
 This prevents us from re-using the same browser across multiple tests.

 When we assigned the Watir::IE object to a class (@@) or global ($)
 variable, we could use the same browser throughout the series of
 tests.  However, when using multiple threads to run the smoke test
 multiple times concurrently, the threads collided due to everyone
 using the same browser.

 The below code illustrates our problem.

 If you run the code as it is, two browsers will be opened and all of
 the .goto() commands end up being performed on the last created
 browser (ie both threads are sharing one browser).  If you change the
 '@@browser' to '@browser', the test_open_browser test completes as
 expected (ie two browsers open and each navigates to a page).
 However, the browser is not retained from test to test, resulting in
 the test_navigate_somewhere_else test giving the following error:

 test_navigate_somewhere_else(TC_MyTest):
 NoMethodError: undefined method `goto' for nil:NilClass
caller.rb:16:in `test_navigate_somewhere_else'


 Question: Are there any ideas on how we can retain a variable (the
 browser) between tests, yet still be thread-safe?

 Thanks,
 Justin Ko


 Code:

 require 'watir'
 require 'watir/ie'
 require 'test/unit'
 require 'test/unit/ui/console/testrunner'

 class TC_MyTest  Test::Unit::TestCase
  def test_open_browser
pages = ['www.google.ca', 'www.bestbuy.ca', 'www.futureshop.ca']
@@browser = Watir::IE.new
sleep(2+rand(10))
@@browser.goto( pages[rand(pages.length)] )
  end

  def test_navigate_somewhere_else
pages = ['www.henrys.com', 'www.gmail.com', 'maps.google.ca']
@@browser.goto( pages[rand(pages.length)] )
  end
 end

Your right Charley

gem install windows-pr

Will do it.

 It seems there are some compatibility issues here with some of the
 win32utils. Try updating your win32-api gem, win32-process and the

[wtr-general] Re: browser seems to hang sporadically

2009-02-04 Thread aidy lewis

Hi Lisa,

2009/2/3 Lisa Crispin lisa.cris...@gmail.com:
 Has anyone seen this problem running Watir suites in Vista (64-bit) / IE7?

 We have a number of Watir suites, plus one big giant suite that includes all
 the others, the giant one takes maybe 3 hours to run.

 I ran this giant suite for 3+ years unattended on XP / IE6 without too much
 trouble - I'd kick it off when I left for the day. Occasionally a script
 would get an error I couldn't figure out - it would run fine when I ran it
 individually. But probably 4 out of 5 times, it ran fine with no errors at
 all.

We have just written some .Net screenshot code that will activate upon
an exception. I will ask if we can open-source it.

 It took me quite awhile to get everything working on Vista with the latest
 Ruby and Watir (1.6.2). If I run the big giant suite, at some point, the
 browser window just seems to hang - as if it is waiting for it to render. As
 far as I can tell, this doesn't consistently happen in the same place, it
 seems pretty random. Usually if I refresh the browser window manually, the
 suite can continue.


Re-open the 'Element' class maybe?

and then

ie.refresh if @browser.text.empty?


 If I run a large suite unattended, it always does that at some point, and of
 course I'm not here to 'wake it up' again. I thought it was because my Vista
 and hard drive were sleeping, so I set the sleep setting to 4 hours, but
 that didn't help much (definitely if the hard drive sleeps while the suites
 are running they will stop, but they get hung up even if the hard drive
 doesn't sleep).

 My temporary solution is run two suites separately rather than one big one
 while I am at work, and keep an eye on it so I can tickle it into going
 again if it hangs. But this is kind of a drag, I can't use the PC really
 while the scripts are running (I have a Mac and a Linux box to use so that
 isn't a giant problem but an annoyance). I've spent so much time on this
 that I have to move on, at least I can run the tests. I'm just wondering if
 anyone else has experienced the same problem? Is there some better way to
 run Watir scripts as a regression suite?

 thanks,
 Lisa

 as long as you set the env variables to point to the ruby executable,
 gems etc it should be fine. I guy I used to work with wanted to check
 the whole ruby tree in to svn along with a batch file to set the env

Unit tests should be independent. I don't think we can make the same

believe xUnit to be an inadequate narrative for Story Testing.
However, if I remember correctly Bret wrote
something to re-order Test::Unit methods.

  class name.  Is there any was to conrtol the order that the test are

  require test1.rb # class testset_1

  require test10.rb # class testset_10
  require test11.rb # class testset_11
  require test12.rb # class testset_12
 
  The order I require the files in is the order that I would like the
  test to run in.  However,  the order seems dependant on class names
  here is the order that my test run.
 
  require test1.rb # class testset_1
  require test10.rb # class testset_10
  require test11.rb # class testset_11
  require test12.rb # class testset_12

  require test6.rb # class testset_6
  require test7.rb # class testset_7
  require test8.rb # class testset_8
  require test9.rb # class testset_9
 
  Without changing the names of the classes or files is there a way to
  control the test start order

[wtr-general] Re: ie.text.include?

if you use Rspec, your verification could be a little more readable:

require 'rspec'

ie.text.should include(whatever)

   Oh, yes, I'm aware of irb.  I use it in combination with SciTE.  In

 ie.frame(:name,ctl140_ctl00_ctl03_ctl01).text.include? 'FIND THIS
   TEXT'
  
   and 5 other searches by frame returned 'false'.

  I think I'm missing something.  Is there public access to the site that you
  are testing so that I could look at the page that you are testing?

  When I am testing an application in my browser, I can generally figure out
  where the frame borders are and which frame is which.

  When you are looking at the page in question in your browser, I assume that
  you can see 'FIND THIS TEXT' on the screen.  Is there any way to ask your
  developers which frame that text is in?

  When writing a test, I generally want to make sure that the text I am
  searching for is in a more specific place than a frame if possible.  Is your
  text within some element on the frame (table, text field, select list,
  button, etc.)?

  It may not use Watir. Not sure if Ruby by itself can be sufficient.

Hi Tony,

Certainly works, even though I have changed #click_no_wait to #click.

I think we need to put this example in the js pop-up wiki and we need

For Firewatir you could re-open the FireWatir class and use  #$jssh_socket.send

  def close_js_confirm
$jssh_socket.send([js]\n, 0)
self.read_socket()

 Hi Aidy,

 Got the error -
 The problem is the script disp_confirm is being called from a frame,
 and its this frames disp_confirm and window_confirm, that should be
 overridden.
 So this should be done on the page and also for all frames. (which is
 going to call your overridden function)

 require 'watir'
 ie = Watir::IE.new
 ie.goto(http://www.w3schools.com/JS/tryit.asp?
 filename=tryjs_confirm)
 ie.maximize
 # override the frames window.confirm
 ie.frame(:name, view).document.parentWindow.execScript
 (window.confirm=function(){return true;})
 ie.frame(:name, view).button(:value, Display a confirm
 box).click_no_wait

 Wow .. great way to get rid of these confirm boxes.. only have to get
 this to work on firewatir tooo...
 Anyways I have tried this on IE8 RC1 - 8.0.6001.18344

 Hi Aidy,

 I have changed disp_confirm with the earlier one you have supplied
 window.confirm and removed JavaScript from the end and it works
 fine for me.

 require 'watir'

 ie = Watir::IE.new
 ie.goto(http://www.w3schools.com/JS/tryit.asp?
 filename=tryjs_confirm)
 ie.maximize
 ie.document.parentWindow.execScript(window.confirm=function(){return
 true;})
 ie.frame(:name, view).button(:value, Display a confirm
 box).click_no_wait

 Thanks,
 Jagdeep

  Execscript exists on the window object, drop the body call from your code
  and it should work:

  Hi,

  I am trying to override js to bypass a js dialog:

  This is what I have got:

  require 'watir'

  ie = Watir::IE.new
  ie.goto(http://www.w3schools.com/JS/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_confirm;)
  #ie.frame(:name, view).button(:value, Display a confirm box).click

  ie.document.body.parentElement.execScript(window.confirm=function(){return
  true;})

  I am getting unknown property or method `execScript'

  Could anyone please direct me?

[wtr-general] Re: Selenium 2.0 plans to drive native browsers

2009-01-04 Thread aidy lewis

Hi Chris,

2009/1/4 Chris christopher.mcma...@gmail.com:

 Yes, but last I heard the implementations of Ruby in the JVM (JRuby,
 etc) are getting pretty robust.

My argument would be do we really need a JVM? Do we need Java
libraries? Are JVM's optimised for dynamic languages? Does it matter?

As an Acceptance Tester an interpreter and Ruby gems seem adequate for my needs.

 but I would not be surprised in the coming years to see Selenium and Watir 
 growing closer together.

I am not so sure these worlds will collide, however we can learn and
borrow off each other.
Selenium and WebDriver are primarily Java apps, the family of Watir
tools are explicitly Ruby.

Webdriver follows the Watir method by using IE com to drive the actual
browser, but WebDriver goes through the JNI.

Charley wrote

 I've recently taken a brief look at WebDriver - specifically the Firefox 
 extension and feel like it'd be a good idea
 to ditch JSSH with all of it's complications and compilations :) in favor of 
 their extension.


The WebDriver extension telnets into Firefox like the JSSH.xpi and all
of Charley's comments regarding the xpi are valid.
However additionally, I and others have noticed the xpi to 'fall-out',
which makes CI (if we can include Acceptance Tests as CI)
very frustrating

[wtr-general] Re: FireWatir Installation

2008-12-29 Thread aidy lewis

Hi Bret,

2008/12/29 Bret Pettichord b...@pettichord.com:

 It is good that you are doing this.

 Suggestions.

 If target is Windows + Mac + Linux

 1. gem install firewatir

I was thinking about this: can we still gem install watir on a Mac and
GNU\Linux even though classic Watir may not run?

[wtr-general] FireWatir Installation

2008-12-28 Thread aidy lewis

Hi,

Can anyone please have a quick look at this to see if it is accurate?

http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/wikis/setting-up-firewatir

I am explicitly using the word FireWatir because:

1. Many people still think Watir is just Windows and IE
2. Many of the Rspec guys use Macs and\or GNU\Linux.

Thanks

Aidy

[wtr-general] persistant 'about:blank' window on Vista.

2008-12-27 Thread aidy lewis

Hi,

I am not currently at home, so I am on a Vista machine.

Has anyone seen a persistant 'about:blank' ie window on Vista?

require 'watir'
Watir::Browser.default = ie
browser = Watir::Browser.new
browser.goto(www.gmail.com)

(left with two ie windows: about:blank and gmail)
