[wtr-general] Re: Difference b/w Click_no_wait and .Click!

2009-10-14 Thread Shane

The case I have encountered for using click!, is when 'click' doesn't
return for a long time (or sometimes never depending on how buggy a
web page or ad-servers are), and a 'click!' followed by a 'wait_until'
to check the event success/fail is sufficient.

 In this case, i would recommend using plain old click. I have not seen
 a use case for click!

That makes sense to me. Thanks.

[wtr-general] Re: Difference b/w Click_no_wait and .Click!

2009-10-13 Thread Shane

For Watir, the difference is that while click! does it's execution in
the same ruby process, click_no_wait actually creates a new ruby
script to attach to the current IE window and click on the specified
control, and executes that in a completely new process using
rubyw.exe.

The problem this solves (which I've encountered), is that while click!
does not wait for the page to be refreshed, if the button/link pops up
a modal dialog (IE msg window), then that process and contained
threads will still hang while waiting for the modal box to go away.

So if no IE modal dialogs pop up, I would recommend you use click!,
because you don't have the overhead of starting up a new ruby process
each time.
And that has worked for me so far.

I haven't used fireWatir, so can't answer for how that operates.

Thanks,
Shane.

  Can anyone here tell me what are the differences between Click! and

  What could be the reason?

  Can i use safely .click! instead of click_no_wait even for pop ups??
