Re: [Wtr-general] How to check if a particular row exists in atable?

Here is an example of my solution. The scenario is there are multiple tables with various buttons (all the button have the same name—‘Deactivate’). The test find table at index 8 and clicks the button in the last row in column 2. At that point the page has to be reloaded in order to account for the change in the page and then check

def test4_DeactivateGEMS

gotoTestPage()

# Find the link and click it

$ie.link(:text, /GEMS/i).click

# Load my target table

table = $ie.table(:index, 8)

# get the number of rows

rowCount = table.row_count

# remove the button in column 2 in the last row

table[rowCount][2].button("Delete").click

# reload the table variable because the page has changed

table = $ie.table(:index, 8)

begin

assert_not_equal(rowCount,table.row_count)

rescue => e

puts "*FAILED*." + e.message + "\n" + e.backtrace.join("\n")

end

$ie.close

end

If there is nothing at index [1] [1] then do the view source, find your table and count the <tr> tags until you get the a row with data and start there. You could iterate over the rows and columns if you need move flexibility.

Also, I would use a regular _expression_ to find the text e.g. /test to search for/i (use the ‘i’ if case doesn’t matter).

Have you checked out the table_test.rb in the untitest folder of your WATIR installation directory?

I checked again. I am accessing the right table.

But as u can see from the HTML below, first two rows of the table are empty.

So when I try to acess the first row,its throwing an exception.The tables are dynamic and based on user input.

I want to test if the input added has been saved. So I want to iterate through the table until I find the text.

HTML of the table:

<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="200%">
                                                                <tr>
                                                                </tr>
                                                                <tr>
                                                                </tr>
                                                                <tr>
                                                                    <td align="left" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" title=""><img alt="normal" border="0" height="9" src="" width="8">  <a href="" height=500, scrollbars=yes')">ITEM 1</a></td>
                                                                </tr>
                                                                <tr>
                                                                </tr>
                                                                <tr>
                                                                </tr>
                                                                <tr>

Hi,
try using the getContents to find the text.
var = table[1][1].getContents
puts var

As far not finding the cell means (normally)that you
are accessing the wrong table with wrong arguments.
A long way to get around is to try each table index
and then locate what you are looking for.
hope this helps.
