[Wtr-general] Watir on Rails
I have just released a Ruby on Rails Plugin that allows for easy Watir testing in Rails. To install the plugin in your Rails project, execute ./script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/watir-on-rails You can then use the generator to get you started on writing your first Watir on Rails test... ./script/generate watir SuccessfulLogin Your Watir tests will live in test/watir and can be executed from Rake like this... rake test:watir In your Watir tests you will have access to all the standard Rails testing conveniences, such as fixtures and ActiveRecord APIs.

Re: [Wtr-general] Watir on Rails
Dave, Very nice! I notice that your example at http://watir-on-rails.rubyforge.org/ tests the URL for the local development Rails app on the default port (http://localhost:3000/). Does your plugin start the web server when you do the rake test:watir or do you have to ensure that the web server is already running?

I have done an svn check out of the latest watir files through https://svn.openqa.org/svn/watir/trunk into a file watir i uninstalled the previous version of watir.

[Wtr-general] Div Access
Hi my name is Michael, i have a problem with div access. i got a sample page with an external js file. the js file creates a dynamtic popup menu with several subfolders. all data is located in an array. at the end of the js it is written on the file by document.writeln so when i try ie.div(:id,'menuItem0').click it seems to work i can see the yellow clicking mark. but the problem is the div has several onlick onmouseover events which are used to open the subfolders. and when i try ie.div(:id,'menuItem0').fireEvent(onMouseOver) i get the same result as .click but it ignores the js command in the onmouseover or onclick parts. i thought it might be a general problem so that watir is not able to access divs in that way so i built a simple version of the script. div id=test1 href="" target="_new">http://www.yahoo.de','','');; href="" target="_new">http://www.google.com','','');; TEST/div i tried to access and it worked.. so im confused. the only difference to the js is that the js is a bit more complicated and that there are more elements but its based on the same structure. i thought it might be cuz it is written by js but why do the first elements of the menu blink when i access them with ruby. i get all the divs with show_divs() too so watir has no identifing problems. i have no solution maybe if someone has any idea whats wrong plz tell me thx so far Greetings Michael ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

One of our developers was playing with the google ajax tree, I could find the objects in the tree (they were table elements inside a div) that I wanted to click, but there was no onClick event and clicking them through watir didn't work -- I had to use the execScript method of the window object. Seems that this was somehow building the event handler on the fly and clicking through watir API wasn't the same as actually clicking the tree entry manually -- a bit over my head how/why but just fyi. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Schmidt Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2006 12:13 AM To: wtr-general@rubyforge.org Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Cannot access input element The lack of any input tags in a view source is easy to explain. I've found that a view source will only show the *initial* HTML that was sent to the browser. Any changes due to AJAX or Dynamic HTML will not show up in a view source, but will show up using development tools which show you the active DOM. As to why the button isn't being clicked, it isn't clear from the HTML below, but perhaps there is something in the onClick() handler that aborts the effects of the click. One thing I've done in our web scraping applications is to re-write the HTML before clicking to prevent some un-necessary events from firing.

Re: [Wtr-general] Hi watir problem
It looks like you're still running some files from the 1.4.1 version from site_ruby directory if you look at the path you have below for iedialog.dll. If you've already uninstalled 1.4.1 then make sure to reme the watir.rb and watir directory from site_ruby and try it again.-CharleyOn 9/7/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I am a newbie to watir and really love working with watir now. i had installed the waitr 1.4 which was running really well. now as i wanted to check out 'firewatir' which does not run on 1.4 i had to download the version 1.5 so here are the steps that i have followed.

[Wtr-general] Handling (Browser Security Driven?) Modal Dialog
I have a popup titled simply Internet Explorer containing the text: When you send information to the Internet, it might be possible for others to see that information. Do you want to continue? There are two buttons, labeled Yes and No. I am unable to attach to this like so: ie2 = Watir::IE.attach(:title, Internet Explorer), or by doing: ie2 = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /Internet/). This made me suspect this was a modal dialog (besides the fact that it acts like one functionally.) This pops up, by the way, when I execute the script googleSearch.rb (you know, the pickaxe script referenced in the Watir user guide.) It happens after the script sends the click to the Google Search button. So...I uninstalled Watir 1.4.1, downloaded the current 1.5 gem (currently watir-1.5.1.1065.gem) and installed the gem. So far so good. This was to gain modal dialog processing functionality. I then inserted this statement: ie.modal_dialog.button(:text, Yes).click immediately after these 3 lines in the script: =puts Step 3: click the 'Google Search' button =ie.button(:name, btnG).click # btnG is the name of the Search button =puts Action: clicked the Google Search button. No good. After step 2 completes (pickaxe loaded into google search field) I see: Step 3: click the 'Google Search' button Action: clicked the Google Search button. Modal Dialog not found. Timeout = 2.0 c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir.rb:2606:in `locate' Press ENTER to close the window... Now, my BELIEF is that the reason this occurs is that this dialog popup is not launched by Javascript from the current IE session -- but rather is triggered by IE security. Which since I am testing a corporate browser I cannot alter. So -- has anyone dealt with this before? I haven't seen any postings in this forum or elsewhere on the web about dealing with Browser security generated dialogs Has anyone dealt with this standard security modal dialog before? If so, what should I add to that simple googleSearch.rb to get past it automatically? - Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=4012messageID=11008#11008 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
[Wtr-general] Inputing text into a textarea that is contained within a div
Hi,
Im
having a lot of trouble trying to get Watir to input text into a textarea
that is within a div, I have tried a lot of things, such as
ie.divs(:class,
CommonFormField ).set('watir')
and a ton of variations to
that. I am totally out of ideas.
From what I know, the box
is know as a WYSIWYG editor, and the box has buttons on top that look like
these.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Wtr-general] Inputing text into a textarea that is containedwithin a div
Hey there.
Your editor looks similar to FreeTextBox
which I was looking to test against.
I had no luck in my investigations, but I
have also been pretty busy with other things lately.
One thing that I was going to try is ask
around to see if one of the developers could interact with the editor using
_vbscript_. Usually, if it can be modified successfully in _vbscript_, finding the
Ruby way isnt that far of a reach.
Just a though.

[Wtr-general] Calling JavaScript code in the browser
Thanks to Bill Attebery for pointing to a blog with a good solution to this problem. I have experimented with making it easier to get any return value back to Watir. This is what I came up with: === require 'watir' module Watir class IE def execute_script(scriptCode) ie.Document.parentWindow.execScript(window.WatirJSResult = +scriptCode) return ie.Document.parentWindow.WatirJSResult end end end === This allows for dropping an extra step in the test from the blog to relay the result. The test now simply becomes: === def test_selection @ie.execute_script(RadComboBox1.FindItemByText(\Golf\).Select()) assert_equal(Golf, @ie.execute_script(RadComboBox1.GetText())) end === I am no JavaScript expert, and I have only used this in a few small tests, so I don't know if this will get me in trouble anywhere, though. ~~ Egil -Original Message- From: Attebery, Bill [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Cannot access input element I thought I posted this a month or so back but I can't find it.
