Hi,
I am new to the group, and trying to educate myself on using
IronPython for UI Automation.
I found a code snippet (in C#) to pattern some Python after on the
web: (from
http://refact.blogspot.com/2009/03/ui-automation-library.html), which
is supposed to check to see that a keypress of the "1" button makes a
"1" appear in the calculator display. I am running into a problem
where I can't find the Edit control programmatically.
// .. Launch Calc Process
Process[] processes = Process.GetProcessesByName("calc");
AutomationElement _mainWindow=
AutomationElement.FromHandle(processes[0].MainWindowHandle);
AutomationElement lButton =_mainWindow.FindFirst(
TreeScope.Children,
new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.NameProperty, "1"));
((InvokePattern)(lButton .GetCurrentPattern(InvokePattern.Pattern))).Invoke();
AutomationElement lScreen = _mainWindow.FindFirst(
TreeScope.Children,
new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty,
ControlType.Edit));
string lDisplayText =
(string)lScreen.GetCurrentPropertyValue(ValuePattern.ValueProperty);
Assert.Equals("1",lDisplayText);
processes [0].Close();
My Python code to attempt something similar:
import clr
clr.AddReference('UIAutomationClient')
clr.AddReference('UIAutomationTypes')
from System.Windows.Automation import *
# unlike C# example, make sure Windows Calculator is running before
running this script
tops = AutomationElement.RootElement.FindAll(TreeScope.Children,
Condition.TrueCondition)
for elem in tops:
#print "Window %s is available" %
elem.GetCurrentPropertyValue(AutomationElement.NameProperty)
if elem.GetCurrentPropertyValue(AutomationElement.NameProperty)
== 'Calculator':
print "Calculator found! Total of %d UI elements" %
len(elem.FindAll(TreeScope.Children, Condition.TrueCondition))
NameCondition = PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.NameProperty, "1")
lButton = elem.FindFirst(TreeScope.Children, NameCondition)
print lButton
EditCondition =
PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty,
ControlType.Edit)
lScreen = elem.FindFirst(TreeScope.Children, EditCondition)
print lScreen
The output looks like:
Calculator found! Total of 74 UI elements
<System.Windows.Automation.AutomationElement object at
0x000000000000002B [Syste
m.Windows.Automation.AutomationElement]>
None
which seems to indicate that the Edit control was not found, but I can
find it using a tool like UISpy. Why can't I search for the Edit
control in this window and find it?
Thanks in advance,
Duane
