Did you ever get a handle on your problems? I've got hints for 1 & 2, I
think if you search this forum for logging pass fails you may find some
hints.
Item 1) You need it to navigate back to the source page after the assert.
it may be as simple as $browser.back or $browser.navigate.back
$browser.a(:text, 'Activities').click
assert $browser.title == "Activities Navigation Page"
$browser.back
$browser.a(:text, 'Voter Registration').click
....
Item 2) setup looks like a mess. You are using ARGV which is a command
line argument. At the command prompt is would be something like:
>ruby myScriptName.rb chrome
I run my scripts using textpad for my IDE and not the command line.
It looks like setup has a few other problems as well.
Here's my def for a browser launch
def Method_OpenBrowser(ie,sURL,sBrowserType)
puts ' * Method_OpenBrowser'
puts ' - Browser type: ' + sBrowserType.to_s
puts ' - URL: ' + sURL.to_s
iFail=0
case sBrowserType
when 'firefox'
ie = Watir::Browser.new(:firefox)
ie.window.maximize()
when 'chrome'
ie = Watir::Browser.new(:chrome, :switches => %w[ --test-type ])
#ie = Watir::Browser.new(:chrome)
ie.window.maximize()
sleep 4
when 'ie'
ie = Watir::Browser.new(:internet_explorer)
ie.window.maximize()
else
puts ' - FAIL. Browser type not found [ '+sBrowserType+' ]'
puts ' - Valid browser types: firefox, chrome, ie'
puts ' - ABORT. '
30.times { puts ' ' }
STDOUT.flush()
exit
end
ie.goto(sURL)
# This next command is a verification point. If it fails it goes to the
rescue, modify to what you can consistently verify against when the url
opens.
ie.link(:id,'ctl00_signoutButton_btnSignOutLink').wait_until_present #
Wait for the page to display, else lets just stop
puts ' - PASS: URL Opened'
puts ' - Return hwnd: '+ie.to_s
STDOUT.flush()
return ie
rescue
puts ' - Rescue Login Failure. Abort!'
iFail= -1
puts ' - Return Fail = '+iFail.to_s
STDOUT.flush
return iFail
end
