[wtr-general] Re: Automating a File uploader popup
Hey orde, You are right. There is an object tag associated with it and that button is a Flash implementation. I have come across that we have flash supported extension for watir flashwatir. Just was wondering if its useable. Or is there an alternative solution like using some windowsole api to handle this. Thanks, Natasha From: orde To: Watir General Sent: Thursday, 18 June, 2009 1:33:32 Subject: [wtr-general] Re: Automating a File uploader popup Hi Natasha (and all)-- This might be OT, but I'll throw it out there because you mentioned flash a couple of times in this thread. Is there an tag associated with the page element that you're trying to access? If you right-click on the page element using Firefox, do you see an overlay about "About Adobe Flash Player"? If so, my understanding is that out-of-the-box watir doesn't support flash, so the above solutions won't necessarily work. Hope that helps... orde --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Watir General" group.

[wtr-general] Re: Automating a File uploader popup
Thanks for the pointer. Unfortunately I tried to automate the click event for the span and it didn't popup the upload file window. I saw that watir identified the button and even clicked it, but nothing happened. But when I try to do the same manually it works fine. Source code for the page under test: Upload your images to MOO Watir command executed: #$ie.span(:id,"spnUploadButton").fire_event("OnMouseDown") #$ie.span(:id,"spnUploadButton").fire_event("OnMouseUp") $ie.span(:id,"spnUploadButton").click NOTE: I tried both click method as well as fire_events. None worked.

Hi Thanks for the pointer.

[wtr-general] Re: Saving xml contents of a page shown on screen
Hey Alex, Thanks for the inputs. Unfortunately that didn't help me :(. Basically, when I view the page it simply has an xml file opened and its contents look something like this: - 23233 ksjdksjdk I tried using text property of browser to save the text shown on page as xml file. It did save it. But it saved the '-' as well. That became a bit clumpsy. The xml file is huge and hence its good to save the page as an xml file. Thats what I do manually. Also is there a way in which I can grab the URL of a link on a page. I tried the following: xmlurl = $ie.link(:text,"test").url But it failed, saying that url is not valid method. Thanks, Natasha From: Alex Collins To: watir-general@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, 18 May, 2009 20:05:24 Subject: [wtr-general] Re: Saving xml contents of a page shown on screen Natasha, This is where you need to use a little natural Ruby. For example: filename = 'output.xml' File.open(filename, 'w').write browser.html Another useful style is: File.open(filename, 'w') do |output| output.puts "Whatever I want to put in the file." end Hope this helps.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir users: What is your role at work?
Hi All, I have been into testing for about 6 years. My testing experience has mostly been into testing on unix platforms and C-Api testing. My current job is around testing of a website. Hence this is the first time I started looking out for automated test tools for website automation. This is how I got to learn about Watir and I enjoy working with Watir. So far I have used Perl and Ruby is quite similar to Perl. Manual testing can become monotonous and hence doing automation using Watir makes the job interesting.

Thats Great :) I am aware of LRUG. Just have attended one of its session. But have found that they have ruby-related discussions more, as compared to Watir and testing.

A Note to my last mail: The program which invokes the module's method has a statement (which calls assert method). That gets executed if its part of the test program, but not when its part of the Login module. Not sure why. How is it different to work successfully, when invoked through the caller program.

[wtr-general] Re: Efficient code writing
Hi Aidy, Thanks for your inputs. I am not very clear what can we use Rspec for? How is it better that Test::Unit? I am thinking of trying to integrate watir with TestLink, as it has dual advantage. It allows me to maintain test cases and gives me an interface to execute my tests. Besides that It has reporting mechanism, which will help me to generate execution reports. Regards, Natasha aidy lewis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Natasha, I would try to stay away from using globals and use an instance variable instead or pass your browser object across classes. You could use traditional Rspec instead of Test::Unit - this will also give you a HTML report. There are examples on the Watir framework's page and on rsepc.info.

Thus the neglect. :) Also, since then I've become a fan of running all test scripts against a new build, without picking and choosing individual suites in a GUI the way the rails app was designed to do.

[wtr-general] Re: Very slow typing speed for firefox 2 : watir 1.6.2
Hi Charley, I found the same behavior. It was typing at 1 character per second. Firefox version: 2.0.0.17 OS: Windows XP JSSH: 0.9 It would be great if you can sort this out. Thanks, Natasha Charley Baker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I'm seeing this happen with one of the people I'm working with, slow meaning almost 1sec/character in this case. He's running firefox on linux. My guess is that it's due to jssh, but it's hard to tell, I'll poke around and see if I can find out more. What OS/FireFox version and jssh addon are you using?

Hi Alister, Thanks for sharing the script :). But this script seems to check only the main URL. I was looking for some script, which will scan through all the links for a particular website and list all those links that result in 404 errors. So basically it will scan through each page and its corresponding links. I do plan to write one, will share it on the wiki, once its ready.

Thanks Tiffany. I will try that out. Just that this is not our code. This belongs to Fotolog. But anyways, will surely try out the options suggested and revert with my observations. Regards, Natasha Tiffany Fodor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Sorry, I should have included this in my original response I don't think your problem is related to your object being embedded in a table, I think there's a protection on it that doesn't allow automated tools to access it. You can verify this by just performing a .exists? on your object to make sure that Watir can see that it's there. Also, if you're not using it already, command-line IRB is a great way to troubleshoot working with objects. -Tiffany On Oct 7, 11:02 am, Tiffany Fodor wrote: > Hi Natasha! > > I've run into the same problem with password confirmation fields when > adding a user in an application.

[wtr-general] Re: Ruby integration with TestLink
Thanks a bunch for sharing details. Actually I haven't yet thought about the exact implementation. I have recently started using Watir and am maintaining my tests in XLS. But I wanted to use any open source test case management tool which helps me organize my tests, allows me to execute tests selectively and then generates some reports like number of tests cases and test execution results. I am aware of TestLink, but have never used it exhaustively. Also I knew it can be customized as its open source. Hence have been thinking that it may be a good option to try out. Now that Manish has given me some pointers, I will check it out and get back with some more queries. Thanks and regards, Natasha Tim Koopmans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Natasha, there's an API already available which you could use as a client. As Manish has mentioned, it would be relatively simple to execute test cases. To update, you could just use the sample ruby client implementation ... Do you have specific functionality in mind that you're looking to implement? If so, it might be worth mentioning so some of us can have a hack at it =) Regards, Tim Koopmans #!/usr/bin/env ruby # Testlink API Sample Ruby Client implementation require 'xmlrpc/client' class TestlinkAPIClient # substitute your server URL Here SERVER_URL = "http://qa/testlink_sandbox/api/xmlrpc.php"; def initialize(dev_key) @server = XMLRPC::Client.new2(SERVER_URL) @devKey = dev_key end def reportTCResult(tcid, tpid, status) args = {"devKey"=>@devKey, "tcid"=>tcid, "tpid"=>tpid, "status"=>status} @server.call("tl.reportTCResult", args) end end # substitute your Dev Key Here client = TestlinkAPIClient.new("f2a979d533cdd9761434bba60a88e4d8") # Substitute for tcid and tpid that apply to your project result = client.reportTCResult(1132, 56646, "f") # Typically you'd want to validate the result here and probably do something more useful with it puts "result was: %s" %(result) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Watir General" group.

[wtr-general] Re: Need help with input type : p (paragraph)
Hey Paul, It worked :) I just tried simulating it in a way things happen manually. I had actually tried the same thing yesterday, but was accessing the element by wrong method. So, following is what worked for me: $ie.p(:id,"pTypeHint").span(:index,"1").click $ie.text_field(:id,"txtLine1").set("Testing template postcardFooter\n Using blue color\n using center align \n Using New baby icon") $ie.p(:id,"pFooterHint").span(:index,"1").click $ie.text_field(:id,"txtLine2").set("Testing footer") Thanks, Natasha Paul Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: this type of thing is quite common. What I think is happening is that the textfield is not displayed, and the p is displayed so the text can be styled better. Ive never worked on ine of these before, so can only speculate on whats happening. If you can, Id work with one of your developers to see what they are doing. When you say it doesnt work - can you elaborate on what happens - is there an exception etc?
