RE: [Webtest] javascript popups

[Aarathi Niranjan]

Try this ... I am not sure if it would work definitively ... or if you are interested in changing your script at all. But here is my suggestion:   Your JSP will be something like this:       ... Function clickOK()       {             if (confirm('Are you sure you want to delete \'Monthly Employees\'?'))             {                   ...                   location=”/plan/manageEmployeeGroups.vm?mode=delete&groupId=16606”;                   ...             }       }       Function clickCancel()       {             ...       }       ...       <TD>             <INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="OK" >       </TD>               <TD>       <INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Cancel" >       </TD>       ...   And your webtest steps will be:         <expectDialog description="expect a popup window"             dialogType="confirm" response="OK" />                    <clickbutton              description=" click the ok button "              label="OK"/>   I am not sure how webtest would identify your OK button from your source code. Maybe some one does.   Hope it helps,   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lisa Crispin Sent: Friday, September 15, 2006 12:36 PM To: webtest@lists.canoo.com Subject: RE: [Webtest] _javascript_ popups   I did try this, but I got an error: com.canoo.webtest.engine.StepFailedException: No button found, Step: ClickButton at C:\java\eplan70\src\web_test\SmokeTest\TestContributionGroups.xml:100: with (description=" click the ok button ", label="OK", taskName="clickbutton") Location:   My script has:         <expectDialog description="expect a popup window"             dialogType="confirm" response="OK" />                    <clickbutton              description=" click the ok button "              label="OK"/>   Is it possible the _javascript_ popup is defective in some way?  The source code for it is in my original email.
