[Wtr-general] WIN32OLERuntimeError redux - innertext

[Alan Ark]

Hello Listfolk.

 

Searching the archives, I noticed that there were some threads about these WIN32OLERuntimeErrors.

 

Here's another one to add to the pile.

 

I will try rebooting my system to see if that resolves most of the issues, but I wanted to alert folks about this test case as well.

 

Background Info

-----------------------

I'm using the Watir 1.4.1 gem under Ruby 1.8 on a WinXp Pro box.

 

I'm seeing the errors when I try to access a link.  This happens some of the time, but not all of the time.

 

Its typical for me, that when I get one of these errors, the same error will appear in other neighboring test cases as well.  Then for some reason, the tests start to run fine again.

 

I'm running my tests under the unit test framework.  The tests usually run fine, but once in a while I'll get the WIN32OLERuntime error to appear to an unknown reason.  My basic structure is the 1st test case will log the user into the system.  The teardown script places the user at a known place in the system, and all the test cases will start from this known state.

The teardown script

-----------------------------

            def teardown

                        #close windows that might have caused problems.

                        closePrintWindows

 

                        # Make sure that we are at the Inbox

                        $ie=IE.attach(:title,/^Compli:/)

                        $ie.set_fast_speed()

                        navigateToInbox($ie)

            end

 

 

Method declaration for closePrintWindows

-------------------------------------------------------------

            def closePrintWindows

            # close all open ie windows

                all_closed = 'unknown'

                while (all_closed != 'yes')

                                    begin

                                                #use a regexp that will match any title so all ie windows are forced closed

                                                header = Regexp.new(/Compli: Print/)

                                                @ie = IE.attach(:title, header)

                                                @ie.close

                                                

                                                # catch the exception raised when there's now window to attach to.

                                                rescue NoMatchingWindowFoundException

                                                all_closed = 'yes'

                                    end

                        end

            end
