I just spent all day today on webtest trying to fix this issue and decided running this by Marc and other webtest experts might result in a quicker solution.
I just downloaded the latest build of webtest today(Mar 19'09) (Release class = development, build number = R_1762) Our app uses dojo components like buttons,dialogs and some ajax calls. I setup a simple test to click a button on the home page as shown : <button dojoType="dijit.form.Button" id="myButton" onClick="window.location='viewmyPage.do'"><b>View Page</b></button> This runs fine when tested manually on firefox as well as IE. My webtest.xml contains: <webtest name="mytest"> <invoke url="http://localhost:8080/<app>/viewHome.do"/> - <clickButton htmlId="myButton"/> - <verify../> </webtest> When i run webtest the steps before the clickButton get executed. Some of these steps call javascript and they work as well so I know javascript is enabled. However execution fails at the clickButton step with the following error in the report: JavaScript error loading page http://localhost:8080/<app>/viewHome.do: Wrapped com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException: TypeError: Cannot read property "controlButton" from undefined (http://localhost:8080/ <app>/js/dojoroot/dojo/dojo.js#20) The console shows the following errors and warnings: [invoke] WARN (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.html.HtmlPage) - Obsolete content type encountered: 'text/javascript'.

Some of the things i tried with no success after searching through your archives were: 1.) enableJavaScript - enabled and disabled 2.) registerModulePath - <script type="text/javascript"> dojo.registerModulePath("dijit", "http://localhost:8080/ <app>/js/dojoroot/dijit"); dojo.registerModulePath("dojox", "http://localhost:8080/ <app>/js/dojoroot/dojox"); </script> I tried this with different path combinations. Full path, "../dijit", "js/dojoroot/dijit" etc. 3.) <clickButton label="View Page"/> 4.) in config set browser to Firefox3 I have to demo this in a few days at our company as a potential testing tool and really prefer webtest because of the features it offers. Hopefully, iam just missing something basic and someone can point me in the right direction. thanks ashwin.
