Re: [Wtr-general] Passing data between scirpts?
Hi. Thanks for the suggestions. I have only just started with WATiR so still feeling my way into it. OO is a bit of a new thing for me and I need to get some thing up and running quickly to demostrate the benefit of automation. I have started with a driver script to call my test scripts. In the driver script I have set up the environment variables (servers, port number) for all the called scripts to use. Where is the usual place for Watir people to store test and envionrment data? Thank for the help. Ian On 8/26/05, Jeff Wood [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There is usually a clean way to build something into an object instead of simply blasting things to a global variable. If all of your tests are within a single TestCase object, then you can easily use instance variables for that class ( @blah ) and then all of the methods within that instance object will have access. Beyond that, if you have multiple separate TestCase objects then you either need to use something like a global ( even if that global is simply an object to hold your real globals ... still not the recommended solution ... globals are almost always sloppy ) or maybe serialize your values out to environment variables or a properties file and have each class load it... ( Think YAML! ) Those are the options I would use... Hope that helps. ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Key / value pairs.
I think this question answered before. You can search archives. But I added this to wiki FAQ. I also give wiki text here. Q. What I'd like to do, is to have a configuration file (eg. config.txt), which would have a number of key/value pairs, such as UserName=user, which would be read by a test script to, for example, log into a page. A. You can use ruby file for this. i.e $user_name = 'atilla' $last_name = 'ozgur' save this as initialValues.rb then in your script you can require initialValues.rb classes and variables is ready for your use. Do not forget that these are global variables. Maybe a class and class variables would be more suitable for this. They will be more encapsulated in that way. class initialValues @@user_name = 'atilla' @@last_name = 'ozgur' end Note: A variable prefixed with two at signs is a class variable, accessible within both instance and class methods of the class. Then you can use them as. initialValues.user_name initialValues.last_name this way, related values will have their place. ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked. I'm

Re: [Wtr-general] Undefined method getObject when attempting to do a set on a text field.
Hi Stephanie,
Are you using a released version of Watir 1.4 or something off the SCM
repository?
I was trying to locate the source of the problem from your stack trace:
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1766:in `assert_exists'
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3368:in `set'
and in the version(s) of Watir1.4 that I have, I could not find neither
assert_exists method in line number 1766 nor 'set' method at 3368. If you
are using a version from the SCM could you tell me the exact revision number
so that I could check the same version out here and try it.
Thanks

Re: [Wtr-general] Undefined method getObject when attempting to do a set on a text field.
Hi Stephanie,
This is getting intersting. I just did a gem install of watir myself,
but still
couldn't find the method 'locate' as shown by:
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3205:in
`locate': undefined
However I got the latest version HEAD version from cvs
repository and that version _does_ have the locate method
that is giving you the trouble. I took a quick look at that
code and unfortunately wet's current version wont work
with that implementation. For the current version of WET
you need to make sure that you use the version that got
installed off from the gem and not the CVS version.
Your best bet may be to simply copy the Watir.rb from
d:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.4.1.rb to
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb

[Wtr-general] Consolidate scripts into a master test plan
Hi, I've been writing a test script for each individual test case. How do I consolidate all my test scripts into a master test script so all I would need to execute is the master test script? Will I need to make each testcase a function? Thanks, Ben ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Consolidate scripts into a master test plan
There are a number of ways you can do it. You should use the Ruby Test::Unit framework. From there, you can either wrap each of your existing test scripts with a function and have one test case object that contains all of them Or you can build a separate class to wrap each of your scripts and then build a TestSuite object to call all of those ... Either one works, it really depends on the size of your scripts and how much of the functionality of those tests is duplicated, because wrapping multiple of those in the same TestCase object would then allow you to break out that functionality and therefore not repeat yourself. Hope that made sense... Ask if you need more detail. j. On 8/29/05, Torres, Ben (HQP) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I've been writing a test script for each individual test case.

Re: [Wtr-general] Key / value pairs.
That's one way to do it ... Another is to use YAML which has a pretty
heavy following with the Ruby community in general...
So, the following would do the same ...
You can simply use a hash to store things... Here's a quick script to
load up a sample
--SCRIPT--
require 'yaml'
config = Hash.new
config[username] = joe
config[password] = pass
config[foo] = bar
config[baz] = 5
config[zoo] = [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]
File.open( config.yaml, w ) { |file| file config.to_yaml }
--SCRIPT--
Then in your normal script you can get to this as simply as:
--SCRIPT--
require 'yaml'
config = YAML.load( File.new( 'config.yaml' ) )
config.each_pair { |key,value| puts #{ key } -- #{ value } }
--SCRIPT--
It's that easy ... YAML is pretty cool.
Hope that helps.

would be read by a test script to, for example, log into a page. Hence, what
I need, is a method to read each line in a given file; strip off the
comments (if exist; denoted by #); find the pair based on the key (ie.
UserName) and get the value (ie. user) and store it in a variable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Wtr-general] Undefined method getObject when attempting to do a set on a text field.
I'm pretty sure than none of the Watir releases included the 'locate'
method -- that is only in head.
When we created the 1.4.1 release, we were careful to only include minor
fixes and updates that we were pretty sure would not break WET (for 1.4).
It may be worth noting that the regular installers (either the old 1.4 and
earlier or the new 1.4.1 one-click installer) install watir into a
different location than the gem. I do not know what happens if watir is
installed both ways. I suspect that one would overrule the other, but i
don't know which.
The best bet is to uninstall one version of Watir before installing a new
version. Both of the installers for 1.4.1 have uninstall options. (Prior to
that we didn't.)

Hi Stephanie,
This is getting intersting. I just did a gem install of watir myself, but
still
couldn't find the method 'locate' as shown by:
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3205:in `locate': undefined
However I got the latest version HEAD version from cvs
repository and that version _does_ have the locate method
that is giving you the trouble. I took a quick look at that code and
unfortunately wet's current version wont work with that implementation.
For the current version of WET you need to make sure that you use the
version that got installed off from the gem and not the CVS version.
Your best bet may be to simply copy the Watir.rb from
d:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.4.1.rb to
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb
Thanks

Raghu,
I installed 1.4 originally then I overwrote that installation via the
gem. The gem is listed as 1.4.1.
Thanks for looking into this!

Hi Stephanie,
Are you using a released version of Watir 1.4 or something off the SCM
repository?
I was trying to locate the source of the problem from your stack trace:
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1766:in `assert_exists'
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3368:in `set'
and in the version(s) of Watir1.4 that I have, I could not find neither
assert_exists method in line number 1766 nor 'set' method at 3368. If you
are using a version from the SCM could you tell me the exact revision number
so that I could check the same version out here and try it.
Thanks

I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked. I'm
new to the list and the hunting and pecking in the archives didn't
turn up an answer. (Aside: is there a search engine on the archives?)
My problem is I'm getting an error when attempting to do a very simple
assignment to a text field.
require 'WET'
include WET
ie=Browser.new()
ie.goto http://URL here
ie.show_all_objects
puts username object exists: + ie.TextField(name:=username).to_s
ie.TextField(name:=username).set('first.last')
My output confirms that the username field does in fact exist on the page:
username object exists: WebEdit(name:=username)
But then I get this exception:
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3205:in `locate': undefined
method `getObject' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1766:in `assert_exists'
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3368:in `set'
from
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/qantom/webobjects/WebEdit.rb:59:in `set'
from D:/ruby/myRuby/AdminTest/simple.rb:9
I'm not sure if this is a WET issue or a Watir issue. What I'm running
on is:
- Win XP
- Watir v1.4
- WET v0.5.1 (for water v1.4, doesn't include the optional component)
Watir by itself access the website just fine, however I have
JavaScript pop-ups so I'm attempting to use WET to access those.
The URL and username do not contain any extended characters.
Assistance is greatly appreciated!

[Wtr-general] Re: [ wtr-Feature Requests-1371 ] methods for visible/hidden
Ron made this helpful comment to a recent feature request: Comment By: Ron Evans (greatbignoise) Date: 2005-08-26 19:19 Message: Try adding this code to the ObjectActions class: # This method checks to see if a control is visible or not # raises: UnknownObjectException if the object is not found def visible? object_exist_check return false if @o.style.visibility == hidden return true end You can then use an assert like the following: assert(@ie.text_field(:id, Text2).visible?) I just wanted to point out that one of the great things about Ruby is that you can implement suggestions like this without actually changing watir.rb. Thus: class ObjectActions def visible? object_exist_check return false if @o.style.visibility == hidden return true end end You can load this code and add the feature right away. You don't have to patch watir.rb or wait for us to include it in a release. (If you look in watir.rb, you'll see that we actually add methods to the String and Regexp classes ourselves.) This is one of the few features of Ruby that put it way ahead of what you can do in Python. The technical description of this feature is 'classes are always open.' (Actually you *can* freeze classes in Ruby, but i've never seen it done.) (Also note that the ObjectActions class was renamed as Elements in 1.4) Bret _ Bret Pettichord www.pettichord.com ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

Re: [Wtr-general] Help : new to Watir
You can run watir with the -b switch to make it faster. We are also working on other methods to improve performance. But 200 sessions is a lot for watir. Most boxes cannot support that many instances of IE, whether you are using watir or just creating IE sessions manually. So i agree with Jeff.

If you are simply wanting to load/perf-test large quantities of simultaneous sessions on the system ... That would possibly be better suited for simple HTTP calls directly... ( like using uri-open or wget and/or curl ) That's my $0.02 ... YMMV j.
