Re: [wtr-general] Connection Refused

[Jari Bakken]

The partial stack trace is not helpful, since it only shows stack
frames from Ruby's stdlib. Usually "connection refused" errors means
the browser process has died.

The good news is, the syntax you gave me does work. Thank you!

Then I realized this page I found that looks like such nice doc is for the

Something that shows all the possibilities (eg., can use name, id, value or

Re: [wtr-general] Grab text from one site and find/access it on another site

[Rahul Sharma]

You have partially answered your own question except the fact that the variable 
has nothing to do with the site. Just define it in your code an store the 
order_id in it. Open the second site in a new instance of the browser and 
search for the order using the value from the variable :)

Hi There,

I has a similar problem today and when i dug down deeper it was the
nokogiri gem that was causing the underlying issue...!

I resolved it by installing the correct nokogiri gem for my platform
i.e. nokogiri-1.5.0-x86-mingw32.gem.

its all working fine now.

The combobox has a style=Display:none.  Use firebug to figure out how

assert the table is displayed before accessing the data in it.

[wtr-general] Extend watir

[cody cody]

Please Excuse me since I am a ruby novice, but I wanted to create a
simple ruby class (possibly a gem) which will allow you to run
parallel watir-webdriver tests with the different browsers. So
essentially you could run the same test with firefox and ie at the
same time. But how do you actually extend the watir class to inherit
its methods. For example I tried the following:

module Watir

class test

  end

  end

Even attempting to run this just gives me errors, So how can I extend
it to inherit its methods correctly? Thanks.

[wtr-general] Grab text from one site and find/access it on another site

[Jim Henry]

I have run into a problem that I am unable to resolve on my own.  We
are creating some content on one of your sites (site 1) which persists
to another site (site 2).  We then need to log into site 2, find the
content we created in site 1 and then continue the process on site 2.

Does anyone know how I can accomplish this task.  I would assume we
would save some of the text as a variable on site 1 and then somehow
find it on site 2, but I am not sure.

Here is an example of the flow:

1. An order is created on site 1 (an order id is created)
2. Log into site 2 and find the order id
3. Click the order id on site 2 and continue adding content to the
order

Thanks in advance.

[wtr-general] Cannot click a div

[Mat.SRS]

Hi everyone,

I'm working with watir in Safari -MAC OS- and I'm having some problems
when I try to click a div (Login button) of a web page which has
component one (asp net).
This is the code:







 Log in 



And this is what I'm trying to do with watir:

require "rubygems"
require "safariwatir"
browser = Watir::Safari.new
browser.goto test_site
browser.div(:id,
"ctl00_ContentPlaceholderMiddle_LogOn_LogOnView_CntPnl_LogOnButton").click

When I do that, the button flashes but I'm not led to the related
page.

I have also tried to use firewatir as follows:

require "rubygems"
require "firewatir"
require "safariwatir"
browser = Watir::Safari.new
browser.goto test_site
browser.div(:id,
"ctl00_ContentPlaceholderMiddle_LogOn_LogOnView_CntPnl_LogOnButton").fireEvent("onclick")

but the response was this error message:

/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/safariwatir-0.4.0/lib/safariwatir/
locators.rb:87:in `method_missing': undefined method `fireEvent' for
# (NoMethodError)

I will appreciate any help with this :) regards.

[wtr-general] Differences between watir and watir-webdriver

[Bob Jones]

Hi all,

I am looking into the differences between watir and watir-webdriver.
I see that the are some differences, such as the attach is suppported
in watir and not in watir-webdriver (BTW, this appears to be a deal
breaker issue), but what other differences are there.  For example,
while working with the table object, in watir, I can use .row_value.
Can't in watir-webdriver.  When I search for an API for watir-
webdriver, watir API come up.  Thanks for any help you can
offerBob

BTW, (I read the thread on the tightness of the coupling between watir
and watir-webdriver.  That sort of went in different direction than I
am looking for.

[wtr-general] Unable to access this image to click

[Eva Cote]

Hello,

I'm having issues getting to this edit image that acts like a button.
I would appreciate any help. I'm stuck. Thanks.

here is what is displayed for this image in IE dev tool bar...
 
 

This is what I tried to use to access... It's in the mainFrame.
77 $iee.frame(:name,"mainFrame").span(:class,
"NavBody").fire_event("onmouseout")
  sleep (1)
78 $iee.frame(:name,"mainFrame").image(:alt, "Edit").click
79  $iee.frame(:name,"mainFrame").image(:src,"http://something/
Edit_Home.gif")

It fails on the line 77. Unable to locate element, using :class,
"NavBody"

I've tried to access the image directly...
78 $iee.frame(:name,"mainFrame").image(:alt, "Edit").click
79  $iee.frame(:name,"mainFrame").image(:src,"http://something/
Edit_Home.gif")

Results, nothing is clicked.

[wtr-general] problem with radio button after upgrade

[Lisa Crispin]

I'm trying to get all our zillions of Ruby/Watir/Test::Unit scripts working
in the latest Watir version.

Right away I ran into this problem. We have an old legacy page that has
several radio buttons with the same name. So I can only select them by
value. Here's the html:



Here is the Watir code (do you call this code?) that has worked for 8 years:

ie.radio(:name, 'rst', '65546').set

When I run the script, I get this error:

ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (3 for 2)
(eval):1:in `radio'

I've Googled the documentation and it looks to me like what we have should
still work. However, I cannot find a specific example to use both name and
value. Still, the documentation indicates that the value is supported.

I have two questions:
1. Why am I getting this error?
2. Is there ONE definitive place where Watir commands (or whatever you call
them) are documented?
3. Is there a side-by-side comparison of the old Watir and the new Watir? I
saw some links that were pointing to github, but when I clicked them I got
404.

If it's going to be too hard to upgrade, I can just stay on the old version
forever, but I would really like to use webdriver. We are now using
webdriver with Selenium and Geb, but I'd like to use it with Watir as well.

Thanks,
Lisa

It's just a warning message. It refers to a Config:: something or other,
but I don't have that anywhere in my Ruby scripts. I get this warning any
time I run a script, too.

This instructions?

https://github.com/zeljkofilipin/watirbook/blob/master/installation/windows.md

I have updated the instructions there, but I did not have the time to
publish a new version of the book.

Is this just a warning message? (Looks like it comes from windows-api gem.)
Does the browser open?

> The person who posted the problem says "It all went down to ffi gem".

There was a problem with one version of ffi gem on Windows, but I think
that is solved now. Did you install DevKit?

[wtr-general] Error with brand new install

[Lisa Crispin]

I'm doing a brand new install of Watir on Windoze 7, following the
instructions on the site.

I'm getting this error when I do the test recommended in the instructions:
irb(main):002:0> browser = Watir::Browser.new
C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/windows-api-0.4.0/lib/windows/api.rb:4:
Use
RbConfig instead of obsolete and deprecated Config.

I found someone posted the same problem here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8337338/watir-does-not-work-with-ruby-1-9-3

Zeljko says "It works for me" and shows his versions of everything. I have
the exact same versions.

The person who posted the problem says "It all went down to ffi gem".

I have no idea what that is, but I looked it up and installed it with 'gem
install ffi'. That didn't help my problem.

I've browsed around on the mailing list and google but haven't found the
solution.

Please help.
thanks
Lisa
