That script will get put to good use in future. Alas, it won't fix my current problem. I can already view source for this particular window, but it's showing me source for just one of the frames, and not the one I care about. Even clicking on the frame I want and then looking at view source doesn't change anything. This page was written by extremely sharp individuals who I believe were intentionally trying to obfuscate. The page has an unnamed frame, which I could only get a handle on by doing this: $main_frame = $ie.frame("") Within this frame are other frames. If you can think of other ways to get at the source of specific frames, please let me know. I'll also try AutoIt as a previous poster recommended. Thanks, Mike P.S. Do you have a good reference for that kind of window scripting, especially IE scripting? Is there a way to banish those annoying splash screens that s-l-o-w Java applications keep putting up in front of my work? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have used cvs co, old installer, new installer and the gem. The gem installation was simple. I especially like the fact that it only installs watir. The only issue was having to (manually) remove watir from lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8 before using the gem installation. If you continue with the old installer for people installing from HEAD, I suggest that you make it a simple mkpath/install type script that just installs watir. I would prefer to see dependencies like AutoIt moved out. Like Ruby itself, I can download and install AutoIt before installing Watir. It should just be referenced as a (possible) dependency in the Installation instructions. Thanks to the Watir development team for all the hard work. It's a great tool. -sean -----Original Message----- From: wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org [mailto:wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Bret Pettichord Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 8:38 PM To: wtr-general at rubyforge.org Subject: [Wtr-general] new installers Our new installers have been out for a bit.

AutoIt3 does all that really well, although Bret seems to have demonstrated you can use the Windows COM API quite powerfully, too. You can check the MSDN library for info on Shell and other automation objects, including the IE object which is very handy for Watir stuff. InternetExplorer object (Watier::IE.new.ie or WIN32OLE.new("InternetExplorer.Application") doco is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/webbrowser/reference/objects/internetexplorer.asp Remember, too, all WIN32OLE objects have the ole_methods method which exposes all the properties and methods of the object. The AutoIt docs are here: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/ And in particular its API is here: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions.htm Cheers, Dave From bret at pettichord.com Thu Sep 1 11:39:19 2005 From: bret at pettichord.com (Bret Pettichord) Date: Thu, 01 Sep 2005 10:39:19 -0500 Subject: [Wtr-general] new installers In-Reply-To: Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.2.20050901103725.03220ad0@127.0.0.1> We will definitely be keeping the gem.

It works - but a little too well :-) It turns out that the page I'm checking has tables inside of tables inside of tables ... So this is returning the text in the highest level cell (including those below it) that contains the image I specify although the actual cell with the image is several layers down. This is OK before I was matching ie.text to some expected text. Now I'm curious. Is there a way to keep track of where I am in the hierarchy of tables so I know when I'm at the deepest level? In your example below, I guess I could save the text from each cell that matches instead of returning one the first match - and then pick the shortest string. Is there a watir way?

I just tried my luck to see if I could find a solution to this. I didn't find the solution perse, but I think I have got some useful information which could translate to an answer to this problem. The following are the links that I found: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/176792/EN-US/ Some pointers: http://groups.google.co.in/group/microsoft.public.inetsdk.programming.webbrowser_ctl/browse_thread/thread/765c51d26e0ebd68/11ee990085234fa7?lnk=st&q=Internet+Explorer_Server&rnum=3&hl=en#11ee990085234fa7 VB code: http://groups.google.co.in/group/microsoft.public.vb.winapi/browse_thread/thread/2068b98ce2e25a55/746f8f145018fa2e?lnk=st&q=Internet+Explorer_Server&rnum=2&hl=en#746f8f145018fa2e http://groups.google.co.in/group/microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion/browse_thread/thread/38cd91d3b763fe60/38d293a938482446?lnk=st&q=Internet+Explorer_Server&rnum=6&hl=en#38d293a938482446 Sample code download: http://www.disoriented.com/IESpy/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of these solutions are by getting the MsHtml document object using the 'hwnd' of the window. If you got the Windows handle for your dialog - you got a means of getting the DOM object. Not only will this address the common HTML popup issue but also take care of the situation where users want to test pages hosted in custom web browser controls. I hope that the COM gurus here are able to use this information to get a solution to the HTML popup issues. Btw, to get the windows handle of the Popup itself, you could use the 'Dialog' method provided by Wet: lnk=ie.Frame("...").Link("...").click_without_blocking() popup = ie.Dialog("text:=").hwnd I think that the ability to handle HTML popups will be a very useful addition to Watir. Did I mention that even Quicktest doesn't handle this kind of popups? - It only shows it as a generic Win32 windows with which you can't pretty much do anything.

You can define the Autoit class like this: require 'win32ole' class AutoIt < WIN32OLE def initialize super("AutoItX3.Control") end end $autoit = AutoIt.new But I would just do: require 'win32ole' $autoit = WIN32OLE.new("AutoItX3.Control") And with either, you should be able to use the methods and properties as you expect from the doco: $autoit.mouseclick "left" # or MouseClick or mOuSeClIcK... Another way is a little more complicated: require 'win32ole' module AutoIt class << self def instance unless @instance @instance = WIN32OLE.new("AutoItX3.Control") end @instance end def method_missing(*args, &block) instance.send(*args, &block) end end end This will automatically create the AutoIt control when it's needed. You don't need to explicitly create it -- use it like this: AutoIt.mouseclick "left" Cheers, Dave From bret at pettichord.com Thu Sep 1 18:50:29 2005 From: bret at pettichord.com (Bret Pettichord) Date: Thu, 01 Sep 2005 17:50:29 -0500 Subject: [Wtr-general] Frames problem In-Reply-To: <258593F548C79D4AB7CBA2AE72DEBEC892CDD0@HQ-EXVS02.anteon.co m> Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.2.20050901174856.0326f6c8@127.0.0.1> At 03:05 PM 9/1/2005, Boyt, Darrel wrote: >I am having difficulty showing objects in frames.

Message-ID: <OFAFC369A3.34559FF0-ONCA25706F.00826D60-CA257070.000026B5@au.ey.com> This email is to be read subject to the disclaimer below. Hello guys, The response to my last query was just amazing. I got a few responses the same day. Thank you very much. Hopefully someone will be able to help me with this question too. I have to rb files: Watir test driver, which has the Test::Unit::TestCase def and all the tests; and the other file "Utilities" has a number of functions which i am trying to call from the first file. The Utilities file looks sothing like this: class Utilities def initialize(ie) $ie = ie end def logOff $ie.frame(:name, "FrameMain").image(:index, 9).click end def logOn $ie.text_field(:name, "txtUsername").set($user) $ie.text_field(:name, "txtPassword").set($pwd) $ie.button(:name, "btnLogon").click begin assert($ie.frame("FrameMenu")) $log.info("TEST PASSED: Logon successful") rescue => e $log.error("TEST FAILED: Logon Failed " + e.message + "\n" + e.backtrace.join("\n")) end end end And the Watir tes file: # include the watir classes require 'watir' include Watir #test::unit includes require 'test/unit' require 'test/unit/ui/console/testrunner' require 'watir/testUnitAddons' # A test class using Test::Unit::TestCase will run automatically when # included using require. class TC_TaxIntegrator < Test::Unit::TestCase require "utilities/utils.rb" $aUtilities = Utilities.new($ie) def test_logon $aUtilities.logOn end def test_logOff $aUtilities.logOff end end When I run the test, it successfully logs in, but produces the following error on logOff: 1) Error: test_logOff(TC_TaxIntegrator): Watir::Exception::UnknownFrameException: Unable to locate a frame with name FrameMain c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1739:in `initialize' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:222:in `new' c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:222:in `frame' ./utilities/utils.rb:75:in `clickLogOffButton' TestContainer.rb:44:in `test_logOff' Any ideas?

You can't register the AutoIt DLL with the RubyGems, can you? That's another plus for the one-click installer. Do you see AutoIt remaining as part of the Watir distribution, or being replaced by Watir popup-handling methods that just use COM?

No. I basically agree. We just haven't gotten there yet.

Consequently, it would block uninstallation. Instead the Gem doc currently instructs you to do this manually. I've talked to Chad Fowler (ruby-gem author) about this. He suggested the workaround, and i think we agreed that it would be better if the gem system had install and uninstall hooks. >Do you see AutoIt remaining as part of the Watir distribution, or being >replaced by Watir popup-handling methods that just use COM? Raghu and the folks and Qantom are creating a Win32 library in Ruby that we plan to switch over to for our popup handling methods. This is an all-ruby library. I'll make sure it has a gem. We plan to switch over to using this library instead of AutoIt.

Firstly, ActiveRecord is quite handy for dealing with databases, as long as they don't have multi-column keys and other interesting non-Railsy things like that. Find out how here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowToUseActiveRecordOutsideRails Active Record is available via rubygems: "gem install activerecord". If you need to use ADO (i.e. for a MS SQL Server database), you will also need ADO.rb. You can get it here: http://www.dave.burt.id.au/ruby/dbd-ado.zip Now, that is a DBD (DataBase Driver) for the DBI library (common DataBase Interface), which you can use directly - drivers exist for most popular databases. This is how I would recommend accessing a database from Ruby for testing purposes. You can read about DBI here: http://www.kitebird.com/articles/ruby-dbi.html Now, Java! You can easily interface with Java using JRuby.

Good points. My understanding is that when we do WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application') for the first time, both a server and a client are created. This is an Explorer COM Server (not a web server). Later invokations from the same process create a new client attached to the same server. (This is why they share the same session and cookies.) The error occurs when we close the last client of the server, causing it to start shutting down, but then create a new client which is attached to the server that is shutting down. The easy way to avoid this problem is to never shut down the last client until we are done testing. This could be implemented by attaching an extra client (invisible) to a class variable of Watir::IE when IE.new was first called. I think this would be a wholey reliable fix. I'm not sure the cost in performance, but it could be measured. Thoughts? Or to followup on your original post... The Instiki Watir test suite includes some Windows process handling code that we might be able to snarf.

When i looked through the Ruby code (win32ole.c) and it seems that string return values are being passed through this function: static LPWSTR ole_mb2wc(pm, len) char *pm; int len; { int size; LPWSTR pw; size = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, pm, len, NULL, 0); pw = SysAllocStringLen(NULL, size - 1); MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, pm, len, pw, size); return pw; } "The MultiByteToWideChar function maps a character string to a wide-character (Unicode) string. The character string mapped by this function is not necessarily from a multibyte character." I don't really understand what is happening here. It seems to me that both the input and output strings have to have their encoding specified here. Here ANSI is hard-coded (CP_ACP) but i don't know if this is for input or output. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/intl/unicode_17si.asp I'd appreciate any insight into this matter that you might have.

Bret, hi Try to add this to your code: # Enable UTF-8 support $KCODE = 'u' require 'jcode' Not sure if it will help for OLE, but it may.

But i can't get the text into Ruby. I'm unsure whether WIN32OLE is limited to ANSI. If i understand correctly (probably not) Shift JIS is just a different code page, rather than a different encoding. So that would explain why it could work. I don't much care about regexp right now.

For example, the document object has an 'outerHTML' COM method. When the text is ANSI, this method call works, but when the text in the web page is UTF8 and includes Japanese, then the non-ANSI text (non ASCII) is not returned. It's not a matter of translation -- the text is exactly "???????" with a question-mark replacing all the non-ansi text. Once it is munged, there is no possibility to fix the text, no matter if i use unconv or iconv or foo-conv. I need a way to get WIN32OLE to give me non-munged text. I fear that the WIN32OLE library needs to be changed to support UTF-8 (or other encodings). Because the same method call works in VBA, i believe that the problem is with the WIN32OLE library rather than the COM method itself.... WIN32OLE author Nobu Nakada tells me that WIN32OLE codepage support will be in Ruby 1.8.3. I'm checking it out right now...

I suggest you use Watir with a more normal page first, to learn the tool, or else get help from someone with Watir experience.

Sure I test & release it if I can but there's no guarantee. - You have to dirty the menu by pressing {DOWN} to get its handle ================================== I've tried to get the popup handle all in one fell swoop by doing the SendKeys() etc in the C code but that wasn't working. Tho it seems like the way to go. Maybe... I'm looking for other events to trap that don't dirty the menu but I haven't found any that would be generally useful. Any suggestions? Maybe I can set up an XS object so that the trap will be set up once during New(). Have all popups post to this object and release the hook during the DESTROY method.

It may work but it's hedious Hi, Some time ago I was trying to find a solution for the same problem. I was thinking on the way to handle IE menu bar and its submenus. This problem is related to what you write about, since IE menu is a toolbar with popup menus. And yes, you are right about the main problem - how to get a menu handle. Win32 API provides many fancy functions for managing menus but most of them expect menu handle as a parameter. I have found one promising function - GetMenuBarInfo. However I could not make the function work. I was getting really strange error messages (including "Function was successful", with an indication that there is an error). I tried to post the question to win32 programming newsgroup, but did not get any help. It would be good to have some real windows guru to have a look at it. -Piotr --- In perlguitest at yahoogroups.com, "rafelafrance" wrote: > *Ugh* The current method (I'll space you the XS code): THERE HAS TO > BE A BETTER WAY! > > 1) Call up the context menu using MouseClick() or SendKeys() > 2) Set up an event trap to look for the WM_MENUSELECT event > 3) SendKeys('{DOWN}'); #Which will post the WM_MENUSELECT > 4) In the callback HookProc() get the popup handle from lParam. > 5) Call another routine to retrive the popup handle GetPopupHandle() > > This should sound like nails on a chalkboard by about now.

I have ruby 1.8.2-15 and watir 1.4.1 installed on Windows XP SP2. The primary problem is running all_tests.rb. This fails with 163 errors. The only way I can get all_tests.rb to work is to open two command consoles. In the first I run ruby: irb require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.start("http://www.google.ca") Opening a second console allows me to navigate to unittests and run all_tests.rb successfully. Closing the browser window opened in console one will cause the all_tests.rb script to fail again. Am I missing some configuration item?

Firing oncontextmenu simply highlight the link being clicked to bright yellow instead of bring up the expected context menu. Therefore, I was wondering if there are any other ways of firing "right-click" event. Say, can I fire onMouseDown with specifying that the mousekey=2? Thanks a lot! By the way, Watir is truely amazing. With a few hours of trial-and-error (and I do not know much about Ruby yet), I can do really smoothly what QuickTest Professional just can't handle well enough. Thanks for the awesome tool.

AFAIK it doesn't lauch an new process for the COM server like IE does; however, it will need to be hosted in some custom winform. btw, i looked up how i solved this problem before: we just interacted with the mshtml library directly. we were using the mshtml engine to help with unit testing javascript, hence we didn't need to pop up a browser window; so, this approach worked for us, but i don't know if it will work for watir. also, for anyone interested, i've written some C# code around IE to help do test-first UI development of ASP.NET code. it enables you to "reveal" an ASP.NET web control in IE from within your unit test. (i just need a good name for the library before i open source it). email me if you want a look at the code. cheers, owen. -- Owen Rogers | http://dotnetjunkies.com/weblog/exortech | CruiseControl.NET - http://ccnet.thoughtworks.com From Leon.Ouretski at au.ey.com Sun Sep 11 21:55:23 2005 From: Leon.Ouretski at au.ey.com (Leon.Ouretski at au.ey.com) Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2005 11:55:23 +1000 Subject: [Wtr-general] Finding text on page.

The reason I need this, is that I have objects on some pages that are allocated an id during "run-time", which means, that I will know what text I am looking for, but will not have a way of referring to that object.

Below is the list of features. If you see a feature i forget to add or feature I added is wrong please inform me. I would be grateful. watir can handle multiple ie windows with attach methods, It can find new windows with url or title. Regular expression are supported when finding new windows. watir supports javascript events. Normal events are triggered by watir (i.e. when you set a text in input) but you can also have fine grained control (i.e ie.text_field(:name, "my_field").fire_event("onchange")) watir supports frames and also nested frames. watir supports visible and invisible running of test cases. watir supports links,options, radio buttons, tables,forms,button, select list,checkboxes, labels,pre,p,div and a lot more. When it does not support an element you can reach them via getObject method. Also most of these supports iterators. watir supports send_keys method using (autoit com dll) watir automatically waits for page to be loaded. watir have helper methods to find interested object in page. Like show_forms,show_images,show_links watir supports file uploads watir supports saving images in a page. watir supports hidden fields watir supports pop-up dialogs, though this support is limited to very simple cases and does not support modal dialogs. watir supports capturing of screens.

Both of you are getting confused. I suggest that you use IRB to experiment a bit with regular expressions. irb(main):001:0> sentence = "The rain in spain falls mainly on the plain." => "The rain in spain falls mainly on the plain." irb(main):002:0> sentence =~ /rain/ => 4 irb(main):003:0> $& => "rain" irb(main):004:0> $1 => nil irb(main):005:0> sentence =~ /rain in (spain)/ => 4 irb(main):006:0> $& => "rain in spain" irb(main):007:0> $1 => "spain" $ie.contains_text is completely analogous to the =~ operator, except that it works with the text of the document.

No. Using the repository by itself wont solve your problem. You need to specify what you mean by 'dynamically' changing.

You can do this stuff with AutoIt: require 'win32ole' autoit = WIN32OLE.new("AutoItX3.Control") autoit.WinWait("File Download", "Do you want to open or save", 3) autoit.ControlClick("File Download", "Do you want to open or save", "&Save") autoit.WinWait("Save As", "Save &in", 3) autoit.ControlSetText("Save As", "Save &in", "Edit1", "path\\filename.ext") autoit.ControlClick("Save As", "Save &in", "&Save") See AutoIt3 reference here: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions.htm Note to Bret Pettichord: This is something you'd need to take care of before you remove AutoIt from version 1.5.

Yet I'm starting another one. I'm trying to access a modal popup dialog that contains a frame inside it (well, the reality is not that simple: IFRAME inside a FRAME to make things more interesting...) I need to click objects inside this frame (IFRAME). This is what I tried: 1. AutoIt. I can get a handle of the popup window and close/ move it, but AutoIt does not see controls inside this window - the window itself is one big control - at least this is how AU3Info tool sees it. AuotIt does not retrieve handles of any controls inside the window as if the window was empty. 2. WinClicker. Same as AutoIt, it works OK as long as I only need to move/ close the window, but it does not access any controls inside it. 3. capture_events. The script execution hangs after the popup window opens and does not resume until the window is closed (manually, sigh). 4. Clicking objects by coordinates. Well, that works but it is not really way to go as we QA folks know ;-) I am evaluating whether Watir can be used for our product's test automation, and without a stable way to handle this window I'd have to say "no". Any help will be very appreciated. Thanks, Anna. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

A nifty aspect of Ruby's ODBC (true of all of Ruby DBI?) is that the fetch methods consistently return arrays of arrays (AoA). That is SELECT a, b, c FROM table yields [[a1,b1,c1],[a2,b2,c2],etc]. Which I find really easy to use. I suspect that the reason that more Ruby DBI docs don't exist is that DBI is pretty old and extremely well-documented in other languages, particularly Perl. http://search.cpan.org/~timb/DBI-1.48/DBI.pm. There are whole books about Perl's DBI, and a DBI libraries all work in roughly the same way. -Chris From newton at pingsite.com Fri Sep 16 17:46:20 2005 From: newton at pingsite.com (Dave Newton) Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2005 17:46:20 -0400 Subject: [Wtr-general] Exception during IE.attach_browser_window?

When add/removing I had to reload the table object before WATIR could see and respond to the newly added/removed object. My code was something like this: #navigate to the page to test gotoPopUpPage() $ie.link(:text, /Functional Area/i).click #load the table before removing any rows table = $ie.table(:index, 8) #get the number of rows rowCount = table.row_count #remove a row from the table table[rowCount][2].button("Delete").click #reload table to account for removal of row table = $ie.table(:index, 8) begin #compare row count before and after assert_not_equal(rowCount,table.row_count) rescue => e puts "*FAILED*." + e.message + "\n" + e.backtrace.join("\n") end $ie.close You might try reloading your MyTable object before you try clicking the dynamically added objects. Hope this helps. --Mark ________________________________ From: wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org [mailto:wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Anna Tuisheva Sent: Friday, September 16, 2005 6:00 PM To: wtr-general at rubyforge.org Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Clicking a tablecell does fire up an event Thanks for your reply, John. I used AutoIt to click by coordinates - MouseClick("left", x, y). When I fire one of the events (MyTable[1][6].fireEvent("ondblclick")), I get script error that complains about no cells being selected. Is there a way to select table cell? Or may be a way to assign a value to the cell's custom properties? The cells have cellValue attribute, and may be I can assign a value to this attribute directly? Anna.

This works really well, but when tests are running unattended, it would be really nice to get some more feedback from scripts that have errors. Our developers pointed out that providing the HTML source of the page loaded in IE at the time of the error would be great. Does anyone know of an elegant way to trap this sort of information? I have been considering extending Test::Unit::Error to query a global $ie variable and interrogate it for its page source, but this may not be the optimal solution.

You are forced to duplicate the code around every area that's liable to break. I think I figure out a solution that is more convenient in terms of reducing code duplication... here's an example: class PageSourceError < Test::Unit::Error def initialize(test_name, exception) if $ie begin @pagesource = $ie.getHTML rescue @pagesource = nil end end super end def long_display if @pagesource return "#{super}\nPage Source: #{@pagesource}" else return super end end end class PageSourceTestCase < Test::Unit::TestCase # Overrides the default add_error method to trap the page source (if available) def add_error(exception) @test_passed = false @_result.add_error(PageSourceError.new(name, exception)) end private :add_error end You then declare your test cases to inherit from PageSourceTestCase instead of Test::TestCase and you get error trapping for free. Note that I have just been playing with this code... it has a few issues, and isn't ready for prime time yet. -- Alf Whitehead 416-214-4977 x260 Quality Assurance Specialist Klick Communications, http://klick.com/ From kkaminski at kcura.com Mon Sep 19 20:11:41 2005 From: kkaminski at kcura.com (Keith Kaminski) Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2005 19:11:41 -0500 Subject: [Wtr-general] Focus Issue Message-ID: First off, I just wanted to say that I've been pretty impressed with Watir so far.

I'm writing test scripts and executing them from the cmd console by invoking the appropriate .rb file. The problem is that the focus of window doesn't shift from the command prompt to the new IE window. This isn't a problem for most of the tests I've written so far, but it does screw up Javascript dialog boxes. The WindowHelper doesn't seem to know that my javascript dialog boxes exist unless the focus is on the IE window.

The stuff in winclicker that uses 'start' and @path_to_clicker has some problems when the clicker is installed in a dir with spaces. Our bug manifested in setFileRequesterFileName_newProcess, but I'd expect to see it elsewhere too. The current version of the method renders this command line for winsystem to execute: start C:\Program Files\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\watir\setFileDialog.rb c:\myfile.txt We started by quoting the commmand, so the result was: start "C:\Program Files\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\watir\setFileDialog.rb" c:\myfile.txt We discovered that start interprets the "" as a window title (see help for start) , so we needed to prefix a dummy window title to keep moving: start "windowtitle" "C:\Program Files\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\watir\setFileDialog.rb" c:\myfile.txt The resultant method looks like this: def setFileRequesterFileName_newProcess ( textToSet ) myapp = "\#{@path_to_clicker}/setFileDialog.rb\ #{textToSet}" puts "Starting win setFileDialog in new process. Setting text #{textToSet}" puts "Starting app: #{myapp}" winsystem( "start \windowtitle\ #{myapp}" ) end ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=487&aid=2485&group_id=104 From bret at pettichord.com Tue Sep 20 12:16:46 2005 From: bret at pettichord.com (Bret Pettichord) Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 11:16:46 -0500 Subject: [Wtr-general] Focus Issue In-Reply-To: Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.2.20050920111633.034dd2c8@127.0.0.1> At 07:11 PM 9/19/2005, Keith Kaminski wrote: >Anyway, I am having a problem right now with window focus.

My goofy email client--you can probably guess which one I use--automatically formats email as HTML. Well, my email question formatted as HTML exceeds the 40k size limit for the mailing list. When that happens, the list sends me an email informing me, and provides a link to cancel the email, which I did. I figure, ok, I'll just resend the first message as Plain Text. Although I can see the existing text on my screen, the actual email it sends is blank. To my complete mortification, I then did it again. :-( Sorry.

I've heard reports like this and have seen some of this myself. I do see somewhat different behavior if i run a script with an IE window already open, instead of not. I also wonder if some of this variation is based on OS (2000 vs XP, e.g.). I wrote the following code to make sure extra IE windows were closed before running Watir scripts: count = 0 while true begin browser = Watir::IE.attach(:title, //) browser.close count += 1 rescue Watir::Exception::NoMatchingWindowFoundException break end end puts "#{count} windows closed" _____________________ Bret Pettichord www.pettichord.com From Jamuna.Nithyanandam at honeywell.com Wed Sep 21 00:16:32 2005 From: Jamuna.Nithyanandam at honeywell.com (Jamuna, Nithyanandam (IE10)) Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 21:16:32 -0700 Subject: [Wtr-general] Help, how to click the button of the windows th at poped up by javascript?

Message-ID: Hi 1st time newbie post. below is part of a script I'd put together based on the user guide examples. begin assert($ie.contains_text(AttendanceHomeProperties::Reports) ) puts("Found test string " + AttendanceHomeProperties::Reports ) assert($ie.contains_text(AttendanceHomeProperties::UnknownPerson) ) puts("Found test string " + AttendanceHomeProperties::UnknownPerson ) result = 'TEST PASSED.' #rescue => e #rescue Test::Unit::Error => e rescue Test::Unit::AssertionFailure=> e $ie.screen_capture(prefix_test_name(@@test_name, 'assertion failure.jpg') , true, false) puts("TEST FAILED." + e.message + "\n" + e.backtrace.join("\n")) ensure puts(result) $ie.close() puts " " puts "## finish test: "+ @@test_name end I have 3 scenarios. 1. if i use rescue => e then when for eg 2nd assertion fails execution steps into the rescue block and the screen capture and TEST FAILED and back trace are output to console. but this results in 1 tests, 2 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors. obviously not what I want 0 failure and 0 error isn't correct. 2. if i use rescue Test::Unit::Error => e then when 2nd assertion fails execution seems to bypass the rescue block ( no screen capture ) but it does report 1 tests, 2 assertions, 0 failures 1 error ( or the other way round 1 failure 0 error can't remember off the top of my head ) 3. if i use rescue Test::Unit::AssertionFailure=> e its the same behaiviour as for 2. but it reports the opposite 1failure, 0 error. which method should I use to capture a failed assertion ( rescue => e captures everything but breaks the test unit count of the failures and errors? ) and still have it execute the code in the rescue block? I'm hoping someone has come up against this before and thought up a better solution as I only started trapping Test::Unit::AssertionFailure based on a comments I'd read in the ruby rdoc re Test::Unit::Assertions. thanks Marco -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Installation of Ruby MySQL Module : ruby extconf.rb % make % make install Installation of Ruby DBI Module ruby setup.rb config % ruby setup.rb setup % ruby setup.rb install As above shows the Installation of Ruby DBI Module can be executed in win32 but the Ruby MySQL Module cann't installed under windows system the system cann't recognize the 'make' command.

It depends on the resources of the machine it is running on. Watir does not have limits, but it drives IE and there are only so many instances of IE that can be run on a machine.

I'm using DB2 on AS/400 (!!!) at the moment. IBM supplies a nice DB2 ODBC interface for Windows through their "iSeries Navigator" suite of tools, and Ruby's ODBC drivers plays very nicely with it.

So, Perl + DBD::DB2. I can't help with your permissions. =) BTW, I guess it's not a big secret, but: I *like* Perl. I'm working in a culture that's excited about Ruby. And right now I have no need for Watir. So I could actually do my current work in either Ruby or Perl, and it's just more funner right now in Ruby. It's also nice to have Plan B: the moment I run into something Ruby can't do, I'll happily switch to Perl. Nice to have alternatives...

So, if the underlying system is changing the content ... it doesn't care.

(try typing that >manually in the browser and you will see what I mean) This works: require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.start("http://instant.search.yahoo.com") ie.text_field(:name, 'p').set('ruby') while ! ie.link(:id, 'yschakis').exists? do sleep 0.1; end puts ie.link(:id, 'yschakis').text Watir assumes that certain commands will trigger a traditional http request/response process and accordingly will automatically wait for the browser to complete loading a new page. These assumptions don't work with Ajax. Thus Ajax scripts must explicitly include code for synchronization. (That's what the 'while' statement does.) Watir could be modified to have calls like ie.link(:id, 'yschakis') automatically include this kind of synchronization (also adding a timeout if the object didn't appear in a certain amount of time). This would make ajax scripting easier. And it's arguably a more reliable model in general that the current heuristics. With JavaScript, any event could end up triggering a page request.

At Lyris Technologies we create server-side spam blocking software and applications to manage and report on legitimate email campaigns. We are a small and very profitable public company, and our customers include major businesses, non-profits, universities and both major political parties. We have a full time contract position available for an experienced Watir/Ruby Automation Engineer. This isn't a test automation position - we use GUI automation in one of our core business applications - but we are looking for someone who understands how to design and build a solid, flexible, reusable test automation framework. Solid experience with Watir is essential, as is experience coding in Ruby (beyond Watir). Having contributed to Watir development is a big plus. Contractors close to the San Francisco Bay area are preferable, but we are open to anyone with the legal right to work in the U.S. We are looking to find someone who can come in to this high-profile contract position and show quick results. If the above sounds interesting to you, please email me at jfry at lyris.com.

You can accomplish the same thing by setting the load path at the command line. ... Unless you are using a gem. I recently started packaging Watir as a gem and i now see that, somehow, the gem mechanism prepends the gem library directories to the very front, so the gem-installed version is tested instead of the one under development. Now i need to make sure that i do a "gem uninstall watir" before running unit tests or else they are going to be testing the wrong version -- the one that has already been tested and released. This is a type II error -- the tests say they've passed but in fact they haven't actually tested what they were supposed to and could easily miss errors. Since i have many contributors to the project, i would like a more reliable mechanism to help ensure that the people running unit tests are actually testing the version under development.

Instead it overrides Kernel#require with something like this: module Kernel alias require__ require def require(path) require__ path rescue LoadError => load_error ... tries to require a gem ... end end So, it will always try to get stuff from LOADPATH first, only then go to RubyGems. Earlier versions used to change LOADPATH, indeed.

Message-ID: <9C0BD1E3DAF1204D842D72E2DCE2A04ED1D3C1@EX5V.rl.gov> I had a similar problem, a set of dropdowns whose values are determined by whatever is previously selected in the preceding dropdown. Mine happened to be in a new window that was popped up but the principle is the same. What I needed to do was look at the 'View Source' for the page and determine what the potential values were for a given selection, and then code my example accordingly. E.g. For dropdown A, if I select A1 then the possible options fro dropdown B are B1, B2, B3, etc. And if B2 is selected from dropdown B then the possible values for dropdown C are C4, C5, C7, etc. and so on. Here is the code I used... cw = IE.attach(:title, /PER Causal Code Management/i) cw.selectBox(:index, 1).select(/A1/) cw.selectBox(:index, 3).select(/B1/) cw.selectBox(:index, 12).select(/C01/) cw.button(:caption,"Add Causal Codes").click cw.button("Close Window").click A matrix for this would be pretty ugly for more than 3 dropdown with many values each, but it might save some time in the long run to do it. It would look something like this: A1 B1 C1 C4 C5 B3 C2 C7 B5 C3 C6 C8 A2 B2 C9 C10 B4 C11 C12 Hope this helps answer your question. --Mark -----Original Message----- From: wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org [mailto:wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Amita Shetty Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 10:37 PM To: wtr-general at rubyforge.org Subject: [Wtr-general] Is there a way to select items in the select listbased on their position?

In-Reply-To: <9C0BD1E3DAF1204D842D72E2DCE2A04ED1D3C1@EX5V.rl.gov> References: <9C0BD1E3DAF1204D842D72E2DCE2A04ED1D3C1@EX5V.rl.gov> Message-ID: There's a command you can use to return the entire contents of a select box as an array. I don't have access to the API right now but I think it's called ie.select_list.selectall or something similar. Once you have the contents of the selectbox as an array, you can get the length of the array and set a loop to iterate the same amount of times. Each time you loop you just get the next value of the array based on it's index and use the value to select an item from the select box. Sorry I can't give you any example code but the approach should work.

AKA the same-origin policy: "a script can read only the properties of windows and documents that have the same origin (i.e., that were loaded from the (1) same host, (2) through the same port, and (3) by the same protocol) as the script itself." In this case, the protocol is different, but i'm pretty sure a workaround that worked for different hosts would also work for different protocols.

I haven't had any trouble telling which messages are watir-specific and which are on related topics, like databases.

I used getAllContents method and array index for iterations.It worked fine. -----Original Message----- From: wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org on behalf of Iain Rose Sent: Wed 9/28/2005 9:08 PM To: wtr-general at rubyforge.org Cc: Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Is there a way to select items in the selectlistbased on their position? There's a command you can use to return the entire contents of a select box as an array. I don't have access to the API right now but I think it's called ie.select_list.selectall or something similar. Once you have the contents of the selectbox as an array, you can get the length of the array and set a loop to iterate the same amount of times. Each time you loop you just get the next value of the array based on it's index and use the value to select an item from the select box. Sorry I can't give you any example code but the approach should work. On 28/09/05, Cain, Mark wrote: I had a similar problem, a set of dropdowns whose values are determined by whatever is previously selected in the preceding dropdown. Mine happened to be in a new window that was popped up but the principle is the same. What I needed to do was look at the 'View Source' for the page and determine what the potential values were for a given selection, and then code my example accordingly. E.g. For dropdown A, if I select A1 then the possible options fro dropdown B are B1, B2, B3, etc. And if B2 is selected from dropdown B then the possible values for dropdown C are C4, C5, C7, etc. and so on. Here is the code I used... cw = IE.attach(:title, /PER Causal Code Management/i) cw.selectBox(:index, 1).select(/A1/) cw.selectBox(:index, 3).select(/B1/) cw.selectBox(:index, 12).select(/C01/) cw.button(:caption,"Add Causal Codes").click cw.button("Close Window").click A matrix for this would be pretty ugly for more than 3 dropdown with many values each, but it might save some time in the long run to do it. It would look something like this: A1 B1 C1 C4 C5 B3 C2 C7 B5 C3 C6 C8 A2 B2 C9 C10 B4 C11 C12 Hope this helps answer your question. --Mark -----Original Message----- From: wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org [mailto:wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Amita Shetty Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 10:37 PM To: wtr-general at rubyforge.org Subject: [Wtr-general] Is there a way to select items in the select listbased on their position?
