Hi everybody,
I have a huge problem that I would like to share with you, for the case
you'd know how to solve it.
Actually, it's only a "huge" problem because it's the last point of my
first test plan, and it fails on the very last step....
In fact, it is an ASP.NET generated javascript stub that makes me become
mad !!!
Well I think it comes from this point. That is my story :
Once upon a time in the web, there was a web site that proposed a caddie
scenario to his customers. A robot was sent to test it.
This robot did a good job while testing the 9 steps of the scenario. All
was right, when the last "Submit" button came on the scene...
The fight seemed to be easy for the robot, but as the wind strength
became to grow, the webusers began to leave the site. e-Tumbleweeds
were flewing on the forms, and the air became full of fear !!! The
robot have missed his first attacks...
Hum... Well... It was just to make you smile
So I test 9 steps of a scenario without any problem. Then I arrive to
the last submit button. All my fields are well-filled. What happens is
when I do a clickButton() step, this leads me to a page that I don't
expect that tells me the navigation is wrong
In the javascript code there is a __doPostBack() method that submit the
form. This method may be trigger by the click (i don't really see why,
but I'm not a Javascript Guru) and, in my mind, is used to submit the form.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
var theform;
if (window.navigator.appName.toLowerCase().indexOf("microsoft")
> -1) {
theform = document._form;
}
else {
theform = document.forms["_form"];
}
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget.split("$").join(":");
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
theform.submit();
}
// -->
</script>
Is there a way in Webtest to only trigger the Javascript of abutton
without sumitting the form (I think the navigation error come from the
fact the POST method is not Ajax called ) ?
Thanks for reading me
Florent
PS: the __doPostback method is present on the other steps of the
scenario, and submitting the forms on the pages works well
