[Wtr-general] keyword framework

[aidy lewis]

Hi,

Has anyone written a simple keyword framework with Watir and would
like to share a sample of it? If I remember Phlip may have done
something like this.

Re: [Wtr-general] watir faqs

[Lillis, Dara]

That's not my understanding. I thought http://www.openqa.org/watir/ was
now the main site for everything Watir-y.

I see two things that have not been migrated from
http://wtr.rubyforge.org/: the tutorial, and the sample test. If those
were moved, it would make sense to me that the old sites be deprecated
and the URL http://wtr.rubyforge.org/ forwarded to
http://www.openqa.org/watir/

Am I wrong?

Hello,

My understanding is that Rubyforge site is not deprecated.  The site
wtr.rubyforge.org is the main release site for WATIR, which is the
current home to WATIR 1.4  When WATIR 1.5 goes "live" the release code
and supporting documentation will be placed here.

The openqa site is intended to be the development site.  This site
allows teams to use the latest WATIR methods, documentation, submit
defects, vote on features etc...; however, I believe at this point this
is not considered a stable release candidate.

I hope this helps.  If I am wrong I am sure Charlie and Bret will
quickly correct these statements.  :0)

Re: [Wtr-general] How to access browser authentication pop-up

[Oscar]

Thanks a lot! that is helpful but I was hoping not to have to do a lot of 
hacking around to get it to work. I'm surprised there isn't a more streamlined 
or integrated solution, given the ubiquity of this type of login. 

For my case I guess I can use the browser's autologin feature but if the test 
I'm working on goes "live" i'll need to find another solution to fix this. 
Something I've used before was "sendkeys" but I'm not sure if I could apply its 
functionality to this problem.

thanks again, I'll post back later with my results.

The openqa site is the main site right now. We're keeping the RubyForge site
up as well since that's often the first site that people hit when searching
for Watir, and connects us to the ruby community to some extent. Otherwise,
as you can see, openqa is more current and where most of the information for
the project is stored.

Re: [Wtr-general] watir faqs

[Lillis, Dara]

if you're going to keep http://wtr.rubyforge.org/ site up, I'd suggest
including a link to the openqa site somewhere prominent.
 
for new users who end up at wtr.rubyforge.org, there is currently no
indication that the openqa site exists, and the faq and wiki links are
dead.
 
my suggestion would be to keep a bare-bones site at
http://wtr.rubyforge.org/   which would
auto-forward to http://www.openqa.org/watir/
 
I'd be happy to help with this if you want to do it.

Re: [Wtr-general] How to access browser authentication pop-up

[Charley Baker]

We use AutoIt to bypass proxy authentication dialogs, very similar to your
Apache basic authentication dialog. Take a look at WindowHelper.rb in the
installed watir files, there's a method called logon which should work for
you, or at least give you a general idea. Additionally, there's
documentation on AutoIt here:
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions.htm

The areas that might help if you need to roll your own are: WinActivate to
make sure your window is active, ControlSetText to populate
username/password and ControlClick to click the OK button.

You can also try WinClicker, but Ethan's right, seems to work better for
some than others.

Re: [Wtr-general] clicking image (button?)

[Charley Baker]

Hi Parv,

 You should be able to click on it with something like this:

$ie.button(:src, /\/images/prep/new/submit.jpg/).click


* $ie.image(:src, 'http://myDomain.com/images


/prep/new/submit.jpg').flash()



This control is a button in Watir not an image, the full url isn't listed in
the src attribute of the image, so it needs to refer to whatever is there in
the html.

* $ie.image(:src, /submit/).flash()


It's a button, this might work depending on what else is in your html if you
use $ie.button()

* $ie.button(:src => /submit./, :index => 2).click()


Aha, you've now caught the fact that input elements in the latest version of
Watir don't support multiple attributes. If you'd like you can vote for this
issue in Jira as there is a ticket: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-74

Hope that helps,

Charley

Re: [Wtr-general] How to access browser authentication pop-up

[Oscar]

Thanks, I'm looking into it now. 

Another thing I thought of with the help of someone at my work was to send the 
http headers along with my request for the url. I fired up Ethereal to capture 
the packets and found out some information about the http get I'm doing when 
the username and password get sent.

So if I can find a way to integrate this request into my initial ie open $url 
then I think I can get past this with minimal hassles. But I haven't found a 
way to send a custom http header with the url request.

[Wtr-general] IE.new_process question

[Bach Le]

I know that IE.new_process uses the CreateProcess method in kernel32.dll to 
create a new IE process. This same method allows the user to change the 
environment variables for this specific instance of IE (by setting parameter 7 
in the call to CreateProcess).


Does anyone know which environment variables are required when IE starts up and 
how I can set up the environment block to pass to CreateProcess? Thanks

Re: [Wtr-general] How to access browser authentication pop-up

[Charley Baker]

Well, if you want to go down that roadyou could investigate using
Navigate2 on the internal ie ole_object.

ie = IE.new
ie.ie.Navigate2('http://www.google.com',0,'','')

Navigate2 takes 4 possible parameters: url, a constant flag for options,
postdata, and headers.

The postdata and headers are just strings of standard http headers and
whatever form data you want to send.

There's information on the Navigate2 command on msdn:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/webbrowser/reference/methods/navigate2.asp

Basic authentication through apache can be sent through the headers if I
remember correctly.

I actually did this, but IE didn't behave properly.  On a normal
connection with Basic Auth, the browser will allow access to every
link and frame accessible once you've logged in one time.  However, if
you pass Basic Auth headers on the Watir goto() method, the browser
only allows you access to a single page, and the links and frames on
the page are still not accessible.

It's probably possible to hack Watir to pass Basic Auth credentials
for access to every element, but it would be a big job.

Aha.  I might get around to trying this today, if I can find a site
that has Basic Authentication.

Nevermind. When creating IE through the CreateProcess method, IE will need to

Re: [Wtr-general] Unable to select the button from button-menu

[Angrez Singh]

Hi Mathew,

Just looked at the Yahoo mail app (not the beta one) and had a look at the
HTML. The options that you are trying to select like "Mark as Read", "Mark
as Unread" are in  tags. So you need to access them using xpath and then
fire click event. Following code works for me for marking first message in
inbox are read.
require 'watir'

include Watir

ie = IE.new
ie.goto("http://mail.yahoo.com";)
ie.maximize()
ie.text_field(:name, "login").set(username)
ie.text_field(:name, "passwd").set(password)
ie.button(:value, "Sign In").click()
ie.button(:id, "checkmailbutton").click()
# select first message.
ie.radio(:id, "folderviewmsg0checkbox").set()
# click on mark button so as options can be displayed
ie.button(:value, "Mark").click()
# select  element that has text "Mark as Read"
element = ie.element_by_xpath("//li[contains(.,'Mark as Read')]")
# Print properties of the element just to make sure you selected correct
element.
puts element.value
puts element.tagName
puts element.innerHTML
# fire click event.
element.click()

Let me know if this works.

Regards,
Angrez
