[wtr-general] Re: Watir+Webdriver/Cucumber + Appium on Sauce Labs

[Dan]

If you're not testing a native app you don't need appium, so maybe that 
will simplify your search?

[wtr-general] Re: attach files to gmail when compose email, using mac OSC

[Dan]

Not sure if you're just practicing against Gmail, which I think is actually 
against the terms of service, but you're really not going to want to try 
and automate sending email through the GUI.  You'd be much better off using 
a gem such as the one below:

[wtr-general] Clicking OK in a Save As dialog

[Dan Sharp]

Hi!

I'm new to Watir... working on a script to automate some browser screen 
scraping.

One page in particular has this problem that I'm stuck on:  the page has a 
link that is a javascript link, and the result of the javascript is that it 
generates/sends a PDF to be downloaded/saved.  So when I use Watir to click 
the link, I get the Save As dialog, but I have no idea how to make it 
actually click the "OK" button in the Save As dialog. It's not a javascript 
window, so the usual javascript dialog/alert methods don't work.  Also, as 
the link is not a direct link to the PDF, I can't right-click on it to save 
it without the dialog.

I tried looking through the source to see if the URL was just hidden, but 
it's not... it appears to be generated via some convoluted javascript.

So I'm stuck. I can manually click the link and get the Save As dialog and 
manually click the "OK" button (I'm on a mac, using Firefox, if the 
matters).  But I can't automate it.

Any help?

Thanks!

-Dan

Give this a try.  From your description it sounds like you're looking for

Your test continues after you get this error right?  You might need to wrap

what it says below for Safari and dismiss any alerts it sees automatically.

[wtr-general] Re: Firefox for OS X version 28 does not work with Watir-Webdriver

[Dan]

Sounds like you need to update your selenium-webdriver gem.  However, I 
don't see an update being pushed for that yet.  The selenium team is 
usually very quick with these updates, so it'll probably just be a couple 
of days.  You can watch http://docs.seleniumhq.org/download/ for updates.

Re: [wtr-general] simple way for this xpath?

[Dan]

I would recommend something like this actually.  If you have something that 
you know, like the name of the dog, you can work back up and down the tree. 
 Using index can be your only option sometimes, but it can be brittle.

For example:

b.h3(:text => "Hanna").parent.parent.button(:value => "View Details").click

 Hi,

 I am using the following and works. 
 However my question is if there simple way to define these xpaths?


 When /^I click the first View Details button$/ do
@browser.button(:xpath, 
 "/html/body/div[@id='container']/div[@id='wrapper']/div[@id='content']/div[@class='puppy_list'][1]/div[@class='list_line_odd']/div[@class='view']/form[@class='button_to']/div/input[@class='rounded_button']").click()
 end

 When /^I click the second View Details button$/ do
   @browser.button(:xpath, 
 "/html/body/div[@id='container']/div[@id='wrapper']/div[@id='content']/div[@class='puppy_list'][2]/div[@class='list_line_even']/div[@class='view']/form[@class='button_to']/div/input[@class='rounded_button']").click()

 end

I think you need to do something like the below.

# Click tst to make the menu appear
a.span(:text => 'tst').click

# This will intelligently wait for the new menu item to be available and 
then click on it.
a.span(:text => "Activar").when_present.click

[wtr-general] Control selenium logging with webdriver

[Dan]

So, here's the situation.  I'm trying to integrate a cloud grid provider 
into my framework, but I've discovered that the selenium command logs have 
the clear text value for everything.  This includes the password, which 
isn't going to make my security team happy and frankly I'm not comfortable 
with it either.  What I'd like to be able to do is turn off or change the 
logging level when I hit a password element or anything else sensitive.  Is 
this possible and how would I go about this with watir-webdriver?  if not 
this seems like a feature that might be needed.

https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/DesiredCapabilities

What would be incredibly cool is when we set an element that we could tag 
or label it as sensitive so it wasn't logged.

b.text_field(:id => "password",:sensitive).set "test"

and in the logs where ever this field is show we would get something like

value : *

I've used it, but it doesn't seem to be maintained anymore.  IIRC I stopped 
using it because it stop working due to various breaking browser updates, 
but I just tried it now and it seems to be ok with Firefox and Chrome at 
least, so maybe I'm not remembering correctly?  I don't think it works at 
all with IE though?  Definitely a neat gem though.

[wtr-general] Re: Control system window in Firefox with RAutomation.

Can you show the html with the file upload field?  It'll usually look 
something like this.



You would then upload a file to it like so.

@browser.file_field(:id, "file_upload").set("C:\\test.txt")

When you do this you won't get any system upload windows, which is expected 
and preferable.

There's a much easier way to upload a file.  Find your file_field element

[wtr-general] Re: script in chrome

[Dan]

If you're just getting started I would begin by browsing the info on 
http://watirwebdriver.com/.

For chrome to work you need a binary for which ever platform you're using 
and it needs to be available in your path.
http://watirwebdriver.com/chrome/

Here's a much simpler script to get you started:

require 'watir-webdriver'

# Open the chrome browser
@b = Watir::Browser.start "http://watirwebdriver.com/",:chrome
@b.link(:text => "Browser Elements").when_present.hover
@b.link(:text => "Elements").when_present.click

[wtr-general] Re: Click span doesn't work in Firefox 26.0

[Dan]

What's your selenium-webdriver version?  Also, that's not really the way 
you want to upload files.  What you really want to do is something like:

$driver.file_field(:id => "paymentFileFileUpload").set("myfile.txt")

Using this you won't have to deal with the file upload windows.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: watir-webdriver appium

[Dan]

I'm not 100% clear on what the requirements are in terms of ids and that 
sort of thing is with iOS apps, but I don't see an id attribute in the 
appium inspector.  Even the appium documents don't say anything about using 
ids?

Actually, I've gotten it to work with watir-webdriver.  It seems that in 
the element locator that :name is not a valid finder, but this is used 
pretty heavily in iOS.  I was able to patch and add it back in.  Let's see 
how much farther I can get.

require 'rubygems'

require 'watir-webdriver'

module Watir

  class ElementLocator

include Watir::Exception


WD_FINDERS =  [

  :class,

  :class_name,

  :css,

  :id,

  :link,

  :link_text,

  :name, # deliberately excluded to be watirspec compliant

  :partial_link_text,

  :tag_name,

  :xpath

]

[wtr-general] Re: Logging HTTP traffic via a proxy while running webdriver tests?

[Dan]

Actually, I was confusing some work I've done with wireshark and fiddler. 
 Wireshark has a command line interface that I've used.  This was actually 
done in a powershell script and not ruby, but it's the same idea. 
 Wireshark might be a little too low level though? 

You can pass the interface you want to monitor and filters and such.

c:\Program Files\Wireshark\Wireshark"  -i Wi-Fi -k -w  $($path)

http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChCustCommandLine.html

Looks like in ubuntu you can get it from the software center and probably 
do something very similar via ruby.

I've "cheated" in the sense that I've used Fiddler by programmatically 
starting and stopping it when running tests.  There looks to be a Linux

[wtr-general] Re: Major delay with watir script execution. Possible newbie error.

[Dan]

This doesn't necessarily answer the question, but I imagine you'd be much 
better off using the Facebook api for this sort of thing.  There also seems 
to be a few gems for working with the Graph API.  To answer your question, 
I and others have run into issues with parsing complex tables and there are 
some strategies for dealing with that such as 
here
.

[wtr-general] Rspec - group rspec descriptions

[Dan]

So, this is not a watir-webdriver question per se, but I know many people 
here use rspec.  I'm looking to do exactly what is described as the 
solution in the stack overflow question below, which is to be able to group 
my descriptions in the html report output.  What I'm really looking for is 
how that's actually done in a custom formatter without reinventing the 
wheel.

[wtr-general] Re: getting fixnum error for :index in webdriver

You're passing a string instead of a number.  Change

$ie.span(:class => "x-btn-icon refresh", :index => "3").click

to

$ie.span(:class => "x-btn-icon refresh", :index => 3).click

Another way to locate these would be by the aria-labelledby attribute which

b.element(:css,

b.element(:css, 
'input[aria-labelledby=":j6.replaceLabel"]').to_subtype.set("stuff")

[wtr-general] Re: Problem with image html tag

[Dan]

So, after you fire the mouseover what element is displayed?  Usually you 
fire an event and some other element is then displayed and then you click 
on that.  Your code seems to indicate that you're firing a mouseover and 
then clicking on the same element?

Re: [wtr-general] Re: run test scripts on three different browsers one after another?

I'm pretty sure watirgrid is dead.  Your'e going to want to look at Grid2 
from Selenium.  You don't need the grid just to run across different 
browsers though.

[wtr-general] Re: run test scripts on three different browsers one after another?

[Dan]

Not sure what you're considering a failure, but you'll want to use some 
exception handling in that case.  See below for an example.  :none is not a 
valid browser so, it'll fail to initialize it, but keep going with some 
exception handling.

require 'watir-webdriver'
browsers = [:none,:firefox,:chrome,:safari].each do |br|
begin
b = Watir::Browser.new br
b.goto("google.com")
puts b.title
b.close
rescue => e
puts e.message
next
end
end

Re: [wtr-general] Cucumber and Quality Center

[Dan]

Well, it's no so much of a matter that it needs to be run manually if it's 
automated.  It's a matter of sharing the test cases with either our 
customers or for audits and that sort of thing and having one repository. 
 I've sort of caused this issue myself by bringing watir into the equation, 
but I don't think I have to sell the advantages of watir over QTP here.  By 
good description I mean that in the cucumber test reports the gerkin can be 
included which would state more exactly what the test is doing and in plain 
English.  I suppose I could accomplish a similar thing by requiring a 
description in QC for a given test case and then retrieving that via the 
API to include in the report.

Re: [wtr-general] Cucumber and Quality Center

[Dan]

So we're standing up ALM now actually, which has the rest API, but I'm not 
sure I want to go down that road.  One thing that's really drawing me to 
cucumber is that along with reporting the results of the test you get a 
good description of what it's doing.  It is possible to pull the 
information from QC via the api and commit other sorts of information back 
to QC.  If I do that though I lose the coupling between gerkins and 
cucumber and the rest of the framework it seems.

Re: [wtr-general] Cucumber and Quality Center

[Dan]

I should clarify.  QC won't be going away.  It's going to remain the 
repository for manual test cases from which we'll create automation.  We 
use watir-webdriver as opposed to QTP in the cases where our tests are 
browser based.  My concern is that if we have the test cases in QC and then 
we create automated watir test cases using cucumber, that we now 
essentially have two test cases that need to be maintained.  I'm trying to 
think of a more intelligent way for them to work together.

[wtr-general] Cucumber and Quality Center

[Dan]

I'm not sure that this is the correct forum for this, but I'm sure that 
someone here must have run into a similar situation.  We pretty heavily use 
QC/ALM here along with a mixture of QTP and watir-webdriver.  Currently 
we're using a custom framework, but I'd like to start moving to something 
like cucumber, since there's a lot of advantages there.  The problem is 
using cucumber seems like a duplication of what we're doing in Quality 
Center.  Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

[wtr-general] Re: run test scripts on three different browsers one after another?

[Dan]

Not sure what framework you're using or whatever, but you can do this 
pretty easy with a loop.  Below is the basic concept.

require 'watir-webdriver'
browsers = [:firefox,:chrome,:safari].each do |br|
b = Watir::Browser.new br
b.goto("google.com")
puts b.title
b.close
end

I'm 99% sure that this is only possible with IE and using watir and not

[wtr-general] Re: New Chrome 29 driver and ie.link.exists? error

[Dan]

Might want to try updating the selenium-webdriver gem since it's at 2.35. 
 Also did you get Chromedriver2 or chomedriver?  I don't think chromedriver 
will even work at all, so you've probably got the new new.

If it's a javascript popup you don't need rautomation and you shouldn't

[wtr-general] Re: Cannot open excel

[Dan]

This isn't a watir question, but the problem is that you don't want to use 
open, you want to use new.  See the documentation 
here: https://github.com/hmcgowan/roo.  Also, don't try to automate against 
gmail.  If you need to check mail there, use the gmail gem.

See this thread for a discussion on that matter :

Not sure why my original reply to this was deleted, but the problem with 
roo here is that you're using open and not new.  A quick look at the roo 
documentation would clear up your issues.

Re: [wtr-general] Selecting items from JS drop down list

[Dan]

Manually when you use this menu do you click or hover to expand it?  You 
may want to try b.li(:id,"ctl00_ChangeCustodyMenu").hover to expand the 
menu.

I don't know why you're using such an old version of watir.  You should 
upgrade and your life will be much easer.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: Radio buttons with watir-webdriver

If you want to follow the example on the page more closely it would be like 
this for your html:

=> #"radio", 
:value=>"1", :tag_name=>"input"}>
>> radio.set
=> nil

[wtr-general] Re: Radio buttons with watir-webdriver

[Dan]

I think you might be overcomplicating things, but if you want to work back 
up from the label you can do this:

b.label(:text => 'Yes').parent.radio.set

Otherwise you can just do this:
b.radio(:id => "Server_0").set
or
b.radio(:name => "Server").set

I use something like the below.  Find the row you're looking for and then 
click on the column and element within that column.  You might be able to 
get away with less, but this works pretty well.

b.tr(:text => /the row I'm looking for/).td(:index => 5).img.click

[wtr-general] Re: Watir-webdriver : How to select an option from the list

[Dan]

You may need a when_present because if that list is being populated via 
some other selection or ajax it might not be there when you're trying to 
select it.
 
@browser.select_list(:name => "siteName").when_present.select "ccfashion"

[wtr-general] Re: Waitir: Ignoring modal wait dialogs during ajax call

[Dan]

There's a few funny things about your script.  You really only need to 
require watir or watir-webdriver.  If you're using the watir gem it'll 
either load the watir-classic gem, if you ask it for ie, or watir-webdriver 
gem if you ask it for chrome or firefox.

Secondly, your syntax for starting a browser is incorrect.  It should be 
.new not .start.
browser = Watir::Browser.new :chrome

As far as handling the alert, you can do something like this after you 
click on whatever element that causes the spinner to popup.  This below 
will just wait until the dialog goes away.

browser.alert.wait_while_present

It's nice to see that you're using the wait methods.  It seems lots of 
people who are just starting out end up using sleeps which is bad practice. 
 You can actually collapse two lines into one like below as well.


browser.link(:text, "Manage Members").when_present.click

[wtr-general] Re: Tabs, PDFs, focus, and Chrome

[Dan Meltz]

Dan,

Thanks for the help, but I wasn't able to make that work, either. 
I also tried exploring using something like
b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, :switches => ['--disable-plugins']
but I had no luck with that, either.

The point of the test is for a human to look at the PDFs, so I don't really 
care if they are downloaded or left open in the browser, I just need to get 
*one* of those options to work.
I hate to even consider it, but it's starting to look like I'll just have 
to open a new browser for every freakin' test, because there doesn't seem 
to be any way to get chrome to *actually* download PDFs, nor any way to use 
watir to *actually* go back to a previously opened (and still open) tab. 
Yes, I tried browser.window(:title => "tab_name").use do.  No, it doesn't 
work, because there is a modal there, so I need focus to go back there so 
it will see the modal. At least that's what it seems like.

Back to the drawing board.

[wtr-general] Re: Tabs, PDFs, focus, and Chrome

[Dan]

Seems like the best thing to do would be to disable the chrome pfd viewer 
so it downloads it instead of trying to open it.  I think technically you 
should be able to pass a switch to chrome to disable the 
viewer programmatically, but I tried and it didn't work for me, but maybe 
this will lead you in the right direction.

http://watirwebdriver.com/chrome/

profile = Selenium::WebDriver::Chrome::Profile.new
b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, :profile => profile
b.goto("http://www.aisb.org.uk/convention/aisb08/AISB08.pdf";)

Although, if you're not validating anything in the file, it might not even 
be worth the trouble to download it.  See below for some thoughts on that. 
 The examples there are in java, but the concept is much the same in ruby.

[wtr-general] Tabs, PDFs, focus, and Chrome

[Dan Meltz]

Short version: new tabs in Chromeprevent old tabs from being used, fixing 
that means that opened tabs with PDFs in them get reused before a human can 
examine the PDFs.

Originally it worked like this:
1. open new Chrome window to main page of the app (tab #1)
2. [do process A and then] click the button and a new tab (tab #2) opens 
with PDF A in it.
3. Go back to tab #1 [do process B and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #3) opens with PDF B in it.
4. Go back to tab #1 [do process C and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #4) opens and Word document C document gets downloaded.
6. Go back to tab #1 [do process D and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #5) opens and Word document D document gets downloaded.

All tabs stay open and PDFs can be viewed.  Not perfect, but workable.

But then things changed. I pulled frequently used stuff out, put them in 
methods in another file so all of the various tests could use them, which 
seemed like a good idea. But that seems to have caused problems with losing 
focus on the original window. (I may be wrong) now I'm stuck with: 
1. open new Chrome window to main page of the app (tab #1)
2. [do process A and then] click the button and a new tab (tab #2) opens 
with PDF A in it.
3. Stay in tab #2 [do process B and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #3) opens with PDF B in it. PDF A is now lost
4. Stay in tab #3 [do process C and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #4) opens and Word document C document gets downloaded. PDF B is now 
lost
6. Stay in tab #4 [do process D and then] click the button and a new tab 
(tab #5) opens and Word document D document gets downloaded.

This was caused by using "b.windows.last.use"
So I tried using "b.windows.first.use"
But that fails, because focus isn't going back to tab #1, and watir can't 
find the object in the modal that it needs to click. 
(in `assert_ok': Element is not clickable at point (737.5, -373) 
(Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError))

So far as I can tell, I would be fine if I could do any one of the following
1) get PDFs to download. I cannot. This 
pageseemed
 promising, but the code didn't work and I couldn't fix it. 
2) get watir to go back to the first page, "for realsies", and find the 
buttons it needs 
3) perhaps open a new tab for every section of the test (I'm going to look 
into this one, but I'm not overly hopeful)

Any ideas?
I updated Watir and Ruby both within the last two months. I'm using Chrome 
on OSX. Moving to Windows or IE are not viable options.

Here is a section of the code. No, I'm not a programmer first and foremost.

# print Inventory Report .PDF
b.goto currenturl
b.div(:id, 'page').a(:text, 'Inventory Report').click 
sleep 1
b.div(:id, 'printInventoryReportModal').a(:text, 'A4').click
b.link(:id => "submitBTNprint-inventory-report").fire_event "onclick"
status = page_status(currenturl)  # these are the methods that I pulled out 
passtest = section_results(currenturl,b) # and put in a shared file

# print General List .PDF
b.goto [main page URL]
b.div(:id, 'page').a(:text, 'General List').click 
sleep 1
b.div(:id, 'printGeneralInventoryListModal').a(:text, 'A4').click
b.link(:id => "submitBTNprint-general-list").fire_event "onclick"
status = page_status(currenturl) 
passtest = section_results(currenturl,b)

# print General List .DOC
b.goto [main page URL]
b.div(:id, 'page').a(:text, 'General List').click 
sleep 1
b.div(:id, 'printGeneralInventoryListModal').a(:text, '.DOC').click
b.div(:id, 'printGeneralInventoryListModal').a(:text, 'A4').click
b.link(:id => "submitBTNprint-general-list").fire_event "onclick"
status = page_status(currenturl) 
passtest = section_results(currenturl,b)

# print Inventory Report .XLS
b.goto [main page URL]
b.div(:id, 'page').a(:text, 'Inventory Report').click 
sleep 1
b.div(:id, 'printInventoryReportModal').a(:text, 'A4').click
b.div(:id, 'printInventoryReportModal').a(:text, '.XLS').click
b.link(:id => "submitBTNprint-inventory-report").fire_event "onclick"
status = page_status(currenturl) 
passtest = section_results(currenturl,b)

Re: [wtr-general] watir installation issues

[Dan]

I think the easiest thing to do is drop the IE and/or chromedriver into 
the C:\Ruby\Ruby200\bin directory and then try again.

[wtr-general] Re: CHROME DRIVER FOR WIN64 is needed on wiki page

[Dan]

I see what the problem is.  This actually happened to a couple of guy here 
as well.  You downloaded chromedriver2 which doesn't appear to be ready for 
prime time.  I can tell because I see chromedriver=0.8.  Download one of 
the servers that doesn't have 2 at the end of the name such as this one:

https://chromedriver.googlecode.com/files/chromedriver_win_26.0.1383.0.zip

There's not 64 bit Chrome on Windows so, the 32 bit chrome driver should be 
fine.

Those messages below are informational, are you having some problem with

Re: [wtr-general] Using chrome-driver with watir (and not watir-webdriver?)

[Dan]

One thing to note is that once you initialize one of the browsers you're 
stuck with that driver that's chosen within the ruby "session."  Like if 
you do something like this:

require 'watir'
# Starts with the watir-classic gem/driver
b = Watir::Browser.new :ie
b.goto("google.com")

# This will start ie with watir-classic even though you specified chrome.
c = Watir::Browser.new :chrome
b.goto("cnn.com")

[wtr-general] Re: Getting "rescue in rbuf_fill': Timeout::Error" with watir-webdriver

[Dan]

I think you're approaching this the wrong way.  If you're navigating to a 
new page after the click, then there's not really anything you have to do 
to force it to wait, unless you're dealing with some javascript after the 
page has loaded.  What it looks like you're running into is a really long 
page load, and that the selenium client is timing out.  Interestingly 
enough Chuck posted this question and the solution is on stackoverflow :). 
 You're probably going to want to get to the bottom of why it's taking a 
web page more than 5 minutes to load however.

Hi Fabian, 

It's a little unclear what the expectation/flow is after you click the 
'Load Form' button.  That button is hidden or removed by some javascript? 
 It's possible that you're running into the http timeout as opposed to a 
timeout for one of the wait methods.  I think what would help is to see the 
stacktrace that you get when you hit the timeout.

 Hi Folks,

 The title pretty much says it all. After I click a button to load a 
 form I get the above error. My code:

 browser = Watir::Browser.new :ie
 browser.driver.manage.timeouts.implicit_wait = 360
 browser.goto 'http://myform.html'
 browser.text_field(:name => 'EmpNumber').set empnum
 browser.text_field(:name => 'LastName').set lastName
 browser.button(:value => 'Load Form').click
 browser.button(:value => 'Load Form').wait_while_present

 This still timesout before 6 minutes ... So I don;t know what I'm doing 
 wrong.

 Before you ask, yes, I've googled and searched this list and stack 
 overflow was well :)

 Thanks,
 Fabian

[wtr-general] Re: Drag and drop is not working after updating firefox to 20.0 -- Could not load native events component.

[Dan]

I don't see anything on the issue tracker that indicates a release date, 
but they are usually within a week or so as far as I remember.  Best thing 
to do for now is to downgrade to 19.

You can watch this page for updates as well.
