In-Reply-To: Message-ID: <20051201103406.13576.qmail@web8302.mail.in.yahoo.com> Hi, It was not the problem of 'Watir'. The database had timeinstantid's only from 2002 to 2006. So these dates were getting saved whereas all other dates were not saved. Thanks Chaya Jeff Wood wrote: I'm really at a loss... so, you are pushing data into the field, and it *IS* going in ... then you submit the data ... then it doesn't show up ... It sounds to me like some piece of validation in your save logic is throwing the data away ... which has nothing to do with WATiR ... that's a problem with the app. j.

However if I give input data as ie.text_field(:name , 'date'').value = "12/11/2005" ( i.e. directly giving a string instead of taking it from "random_date" method) and then submit , this date will be saved and can be viewed in the "View" screen. I also tried date = random_date ie.text_field(:name , 'date'').value = date.to_s But still this date was not saved in the "View screen". Is it because I am getting the input dates from a method that it is not being saved? How do I handle this?

Message-ID: <20051205114239.6a9d2d85@localhost.localdomain> Hello, I've taken a few months away from watir to learn and use selenium under linux. I'm ready to start using watir again - had been running watir from an old win2k-pro box. I now have a new dell laptop that will probably dual-boot XP and linux so I can use both selenium and watir. I'd like to use the latest and greatest version of watir. QUESTION: If I use the development version, can I revert to a more stable version if there is a problem? Would it just be a question of replacing some modules? Where would I get the development version? CAUTION: I know ruby, but I'm barely literate when it comes to windows.

FWIW, I always check out from HEAD. One of the (many) nice things about Watir is that the development versions are very rarely broken. And a re-install of any other particular version is easy, too. -Chris From jeff.darklight at gmail.com Mon Dec 5 11:54:30 2005 From: jeff.darklight at gmail.com (Jeff Wood) Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2005 08:54:30 -0800 Subject: [Wtr-general] install on new laptop?

Also, you can validate this behavior with: # just to make sure you are running the right stuff... puts Watir::IE.const_get( "VERSION" ) puts Watir::IE.const_get( "REVISION" ) ... that usually does it for me, you tend to get to know the version information pretty quickly this way.

XP installed in > a VM using VMWare under fedora 3 or 4? No, but I'm replying anyway =) because I have nothing but good things to say about VMWare. Not long ago I had occasion to run FreeBSD under VMWare on Windows XP, doing some pretty sophisticated web stuff (Apache/Twiki) and network hacking (ntop, nessus, ettercap) and VMWare handled everything flawlessly. Very nice job on the part of the VMWare people. -Chris From dave at burt.id.au Mon Dec 5 20:30:47 2005 From: dave at burt.id.au (Dave Burt) Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 12:30:47 +1100 Subject: [Wtr-general] [OT] running watir in a VM References: <20051205114239.6a9d2d85@localhost.localdomain> Message-ID: <000a01c5fa04$af880f70$6602a8c0@telperion> Warren Pollans wrote in "[OT] running watir in a VM": > This about installing & running watir - part 2 :-) > > Instead of dual-booting XP and linux, I now realize that I could run > XP, and therefore watir, out of a virtual machine via VMWare under > linux.

First I create = this method:

 

   = ; def startClicker( button , waitTime =3D 3)

   = ;    w =3D WinClicker.new

   = ;    longName =3D $ie.dir.gsub("/" , "\\" = )

   = ;    w.winsystem(c)

   = ;    w=3Dnil

   = end

 

Then I put this = line right before the button that causes the javascript popup like = this:

I don't believe the possible approaches have been examined sufficiently and enough experience accumulated yet for a definitive statement regarding which is best. That said, I'm working with a couple of people here in my company to get a means of supporting Firefox written (just for context, the XPath extension also came from here) and we looked at an approach using an XPCOM binding (using PyXPCOM as the model) as well as one based on JSSH and one based on Mozembed. We have decided to go with JSSH, the chief reason being that we could get a prototype based on JSSH up and running (albeit in a brittle way) pretty quickly but not with PyXPCOM while the Mozembed based approach looked as if it would require a lot of code (and in C/C++ rather than JavaScript as is the case with JSSH which involved more effort though not necessarily bad on that count alone) I agree that an XPCOM binding based approach would be a lot of work, and in addition at this point I'm not sure whether it will be able to drive all the aspects of browser functionality that is required and which JSSH seems to be able to do (this might just be my ignorance however). The JSSH based approach also has some potentially useful features such as letting a Watir script drive a FireFox instance on a remore computer. The JSSH version available seems kind of brittle and Firefox version specific so one aspect of getting the Watir-JSSH-Firefox path completed is to make that part much more robust than it is currently. We'd be interested in seeing your prototype code if you're okay with making it available. We will be releasing our FireFix driver when it's sufficiently stable for a wider audience. While I can't promise any dates for this, I'd expect this to be not too far into the future. We would also be interested in hearing from people who might have some experience and opinions on XPCOM approaches to FireFox automation (we'd initially felt that that was the way to go till we discovered JSSH) Amit -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I don't believe the indeed, the job is pretty complex... Currently I'm stuck in front of two choices: - revive the rbXPCOM bindings, but my knowledge of both Ruby and XPCOM is not good enough to handle that alone - parse Mozilla's IDL into some C++ code Now, there's definitely one showstopper. If I control the gtk_mozembed browser, I have to be able to wait for it to complete the loading of a page. According to what I know (and don't know :)), this requires me to do an active wait for a "load complete" event. Unfortunately, one can't do such a while(messageNotArrived) do{wait} because one's inside the GTK main loop. That breaks the event model and forces us to be able to have one Ruby running the GTK browser and another one running the test scripts, outside GTK where active loops are OK. (I don't know if I make myself clear here :)). To restate in other words : a test is a sequential set of actions but when one is running GTK, the set of actions is event driven. With JSSH, I guess you're bypassing this issue because you're actually splitting the test and the GUI aspects in two concurrent programs... > ... > I > agree that an XPCOM binding based approach would be a lot of work, > and in addition at this point I'm not sure whether it will be able > to drive all the aspects of browser functionality that is required > and which JSSH seems to be able to do (this might just be my > ignorance however).

As you said that the id's are generated dynamically, but there should be something that binds the checkboxes together (may be the item name etc.) So you can write an XPath query to select the checkboxes on the basis of item name. So selection mechanism will look like: ie.checkbox(:xpath , " //td[contains(., (item name) )]/input/ ") This will first select a td that contains the item name and then select the input tag inside it. XPath doens't restrict you from using those tags that doesn't have a class in watir from using them in xpath expression. In your case if you want to access then your query will look like: ie.checkbox(:xpath, " //tfoot[contains(. , (item name) )]/input/ ") I don't know if I make myself clear here. If you still have doubt post your HTML here and lets see if we could provide any help. PS: This extension will be available in watir 1.5, if you want to have a preview you can download the tar ball from CVS HEAD.

Yes, it doesn't. You can get an addon to add goto capability from http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-goto/ But you don't want to. There's a better way to do what you want to do, but I don't know what it is specifically unless you say a bit more about what you are trying to accomplish.

Who could guess what this click method is actually doing? ie.button(:name, "foo").click(true) A guiding principle of the Watir API is that the code should do pretty much what you'd expect it to do simply from reading it.

If you define a variable as, say, $foo in your "all_tests.rb" you don't need to pass it to scripts called from "all_tests.rb" - making it a global variable takes care of that. Once you have defined it as a global variable, you should be able to use $foo in other scripts without having to do any additional work.

Define/assign all your global variables in setup.rb, like this: $foo = 'bar' At the top of each of your tests, do this: require 'setup' That's how the unittests work. The same should work for you. You might have to fiddle with your load path to make this work, depending on how you run your tests.

Message-ID: <1426.132.229.58.215.1134655815.squirrel@webmail.kern.nl> Hi all, The issue: I need to test an internal website. Regarding this specific task, watir seems to be the perfect tool. It works great, but with this particular website, I'm already stuck at loading its homepage. What happens is that I'm opening the homepage of the website by calling ".goto("")", the homepage seems to be loaded, but the lines after the "goto"-statement aren't processed and the testscript seems to wait forever. Possible cause: It seems that the "goto"-method of the IE-instance is waiting forever. Probably it never gets the signal that the website is completely loaded. Although it looks like the website IS completely loaded - all content is shown and IE doesn't show any "in progress" indicators - I guess IE still waits for something to finish. As this website is entirely bloated with (obfuscated) JavaScript, I don't consider it impossible that there somewhere a bug in those scripts (like endless loops) that make IE think the website is still loading. Or maybe it's just that IE can't handle all the JavaScript mess and fails to report the corrent message. I didn't debug the JavaScript-code because most of it is (hardly) unreadable. Solution? Before I start to develop a very hackerish work-around, I'm wondering if more people encounter problems with hanging "goto"-statements in Ruby/Watir. If so, how do you handle these issues? Thanks in advance!

Right now, I "solved" my problem by inheriting the IE class and overruling the goto method. The new goto method accepts a flag that determines if the "wait()" statement has to be processed. So with this troublesome website I don't let the goto method wait, but in stead handle the waiting myself after the execution of the new goto method.

You can use XPATH extension of WATiR which will be availabe in v1.5or you can always download the tar ball from HEAD. By using XPATH extension you can get any element by using an XPATH expression. For elements having class in WATiR a new attribute (:xpath) for selecting element is added. But for elements not having class, you can use function element_by_xpath of IE class to get the underlying OLE Object. In your case it would be something like this: ie.element_by_xpath("//area[contains(@href , 'PieChart.html')]/").click() For more details refer to the "XPath suppoort in Watir.doc" under the doc section in CVS.

The chart which I am tring to access is in a table(index=8,but the table has no rows and columns.column_count gives error) within a frame(index =3). So when I try ie.element_by_xpath("//area[contains(@href , 'PieChart.html')]/").click() it throws 'Undefined method click for nil class' exception when I try ie.frame(:index,3).element_by_xpath("//area[contains(@href , 'PieChart.html')]/").click() it throws : undefined method `element_by_xpath' for # (NoMethodError) exception I read in the doc 'Support for XPATH in watir' that xpath does not support FRAMES. I have to specify the frame and then the link...How do I do it? Thanks, Amitha Angrez Singh wrote: Hi, Your problem is how to access an element for which there is no class in WATiR. You can use XPATH extension of WATiR which will be availabe in v1.5 or you can always download the tar ball from HEAD. By using XPATH extension you can get any element by using an XPATH expression. For elements having class in WATiR a new attribute (:xpath) for selecting element is added. But for elements not having class, you can use function element_by_xpath of IE class to get the underlying OLE Object. In your case it would be something like this: ie.element_by_xpath("//area[contains(@href , 'PieChart.html')]/").click() For more details refer to the "XPath suppoort in Watir.doc" under the doc section in CVS.

How do I know whether the text displayed of the child node belongs to the corresponding parent node? Is there way by which we can find out the parent nodes and child nodes of a tree structure in watir?

Intuitively, I would have expected to get an element and be able to access the methods directly such as: ie.div(:id, "xxx").style.visibility And not as: ie.div(:id, "xxx").ole_element.style.visibility This would be easier on the user. Can mixins be used to allow for this? Thanks a lot. Pat.

Whenever you see references to the "ole_element" you are basically going beyond what Watir is directly supporting. I've just committed a style method for div (and other elements).

However I understand very little about its internals. All I know is that, watir is glue the automation interface of IE. In order to understand it and explain it to my colleagues, I want to prepare a small write-up about "Watir Internals" or "Technology used in Watir". I was wondering is there such a documentation available already? If not, what will be the better place to start? What are the related resources? Thanks a lot for your time.
