Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box
It seems like I am having troubles with Ruby v1.8.5 and the modal_dialog support. Should I roll back to 1.8.2-14?

Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box
No way!!! It works!!! Uninstalling 1.8.5 and installing 1.8.2-15 worked like a champ!!! This required installing gem watir-1192 as well as installing gem win32-process. But other than that, it works just as advertised... ie = Watir::IE.attach(:url,/ticket.aspx/) ie.button(:name,button).click == opens modal dialog ie.modal_dialog.select_list(:id,comboBox).select(item) ie.modal_dialog.text_field(:id,text).set(Comments) ie.modal_dialog.button(:name,btnContinue).click Thanks again for all the help!!! ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

When I click a button on the web page, it displays a dialog. Title: Web Page Dialog Controls: * one select list * one text field * two buttons (OK, Cancel) How do I access the dialog box?

Re: [Wtr-general] not able to click ok for the pop up , after a selection from select lis
It may be a general winClicker issue. I found that in order to get the winClicker to work, the getWindowHandle() had to perform an exact match. This is because many of the IE windows had the same Microsoft Internet Explorer text in the title. As a result, the incorrect window handle was returned. And no ok button was present. The behavior that resulted was that the javascript popup window would not dismiss. winClicker.rb, line 236 ### MCB 3/7/2007 *exact match* if title == textCaption[1].to_s This worked for me :-) ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] screen_capture filename
Hi Charley, Thanks for that. Regarding the omission of curly braces, I didn't think they were required when referencing a global or instance variable.

You might take a look at Aslak Hellesoy's screenshot library. http://blog.aslakhellesoy.com/2006/12/2/getting-screenshots-from-watir which might make sense to include in Watir vs the screen_capture library since his implementation has unit tests.

[Wtr-general] Pass data to tests
This may be more of a test/unit question than a watir question... I have a test case, based on the Test::Unit::TestCase. How does one pass data to the test in such a way that the test can be run multiple times with different data. For example: class TC_CreateOrder Test::Unit::TestCase def test_NewOrder assert order successful end end Now, I want to be able to generate a new order for various order types, (TYPE1, TYPE2, TYPE3, etc.) class TS_OrderTests def self.suite suite = Test::Unit::TestSuite.new suite TC_CreateOrder.suite # TYPE1 goes here suite TC_CreateOrder.suite # TYPE2 goes here suite TC_CreateOrder.suite # TYPE3 goes here return suite end end Test::Unit::UI::Console::TestRunner.run(TS_OrderTests) How do I pass the order type to the test, such that the test runs multiple times, once for each order type.

Re: [Wtr-general] Watir 1.5..1..1158 installation
You must have the watir gem file for 1158 (watir-1.5.1-1158.gem) in the current working directory. Then you can execute 'gem install watir'. Hope this helps. ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Seemingly bogus error in simple script
I am a new user to ruby/watir as well...maybe we can get through this together :) Basically, I did the same thing...launch irb and type commands to see what happens. It was my experience that if it worked in irb, it worked in the script. However, I am using ie6. I haven't tried ruby/watir with ie7 yet... In irb, try using the ie.show_all_objects. This generates a table of all the objects on the current page. This was helpful for me to build the list of objects for my script. Maybe using a later version of watir is required? I am using 1.5.1.1158. ruby -e 'require watir; puts Watir::IE::VERSION' 1.5.1.1158 ruby --version ruby 1.8.5 (2006-12-25 patchlevel 12) [i386-mswin32] I'm brand new at this. I've created a very simple script to test a login page... require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.start(http://mysite;) ie.text_field(:name, j_username).set(blah) ie.text_field(:name, j_password).set(blah) ie.button(:value, Submit).click If I execute these commands manually in irb, I have no problem. If I execute the script that contains them from the command line, I get this error: c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.4.1/./watir.rb: 1928:in `assert_exists': Unable to locate object, using name and j_username (Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException) from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.4.1/./watir.rb: 3382:in `set' from Z:/Customers/Beneplace/Beneplace Redesign/WATIR tests/admin-login.rb:5 Even though I get the error, the actions occur - the text is entered into the text boxes, the button is clicked, and I see the next page. If I put additional commands AFTER the click, they do not get executed. This is being used with a JSP page, if that makes any difference, and IE7. Thanks for any help.

Re: [Wtr-general] 'ie.close' or 'ie.close if ie'
Hello, I am new to Ruby/watir ... so forgive me plz. After reading through the ie window threads, I am still puzzled how to create a single ie browser for my test. Questions: 1) If there is one browser instance for the test, how is one to close the browser at the end of the test? Should a test_closebrowser() method be created at the end? 2) When using this example, I am finding that the @ie instance variable is nil at the beginning of each test method. Isn't the instance variable supposed to be persistent throughout all of the tests? 3) I looked through the examples, but couldn't find an example of the IE.attach() method. Should I keep track of the window handle when the instance is created and just reference that throughout the test? Thanks in advance Here is a simple example require 'watir' require 'test/unit' class My_TestCase Test::Unit::TestCase # Instance variables @ie = nil def test_01_initialtest # create a new browser for the test (if necessary) @ie = Watir::IE.new if @ie == nil # do some work ... end def test_02_secondtest # create a new browser for the test (if necessary) @ie = Watir::IE.new if @ie == nil # do some work ... end end - Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=6562messageID=19604#19604 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

Once you are logged in use

to go directly to another page.
this will only work if you are authorized to view this page.

The _javascript_ Alert, Confirm, Prompt, Security, File Save, File Download, File Upload, error message, and login (I think this is a complete list but there may be others) are all a special type of modal popup dialog window—there isn't a different one. In order to handle these types of popups you have to start another thread independent of your $ie thread OR you have to not block the process by using click_no_wait.
There are two ways (that actually both use the WInClicker). The first one is listed below that works with the older versions of Watir. The second (I have found after using them both) is more reliable than the first but require you having a Watir version greater than 1079 because of some fixes to click_no_wait (can't remember the exact version). You can get them here:
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Development+Builds
First method (works with Watir 1.4.x):def jsAlert(button, waitTime = 3) w =
WinClicker.new longName = $ie.dir.gsub(/ , \\ ) shortName = w.getShortFileName(longName) c = start ruby #{shortName}\\watir\\clickJSDialog.rb #{button} #{waitTime}
puts Starting #{c} w.winsystem(c) w=nil end
Then, before the button you want to click that generates the popup, add in:
jsAlert(OK, 3)ie.button(:name, woohoo).click
# This is the button you want to click that generates the popup
Second Method (faster and more reliable):
require 'watir\contrib\enabled_popup'
Your code
$ie.button("Button Label Text").click_no_wait
# use click_no_wait to click the button that invokes the JS Alert $ie.button.click_no_wait
hwnd = ie.enabled_popup
(5) # get a handle if one exists
if (hwnd)
# yes there is a popup
w = WinClicker.new
w.makeWindowActive(hwnd)# OK or whatever the name on the button is
w.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd, OK)
end
NOTE: If you are using IE7 then the title on the JS Alert box is different then IE6+ so you will need to alter you
WinClicker.rb file for either method.\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\watir\WinClicker.rb Lines 113 and 144.
IE6 = Microsoft Internet Explorer
IE7 = Windows Internet Explorer
Hope this helps,
