Hey folks! Got a head-scratcher, here.
My use case: I want to create a smoke-test that verifies particular elements are present on a page. So, I define the page elements I want, using Alister Scott's Code<https://github.com/alisterscott/wmf-custom-page-object/blob/master/lib/pages/generic_base_page.rb> : *def* self.element element_name raise "#{element_name} is being defined twice in #{self}!" if self .instance_methods.include?(element_name.to_sym) *define_method* element_name.to_s *do* yield self # This is the line that throws the error (see below) *end* *end* * * I define elements in my page class... *class Page* element(:important_element1) { |b| b.link(:id=>"x") } element(:important_element2) { |b| b.button(:id=>"y") } *end* * * Then I have an array containing the names (as symbols) of the important elements I want to test... array = [:important_element1, :important_element2] Here's the problem: I thought the following would work to iterate through the list: *def* elements_exist? array.each { |item| self.send(item).exists? } *end* * * I invoke the *elements_exist? *method like this: on Page do |p| p.elements_exist? end * * But the error I'm getting is: <in the line I noted in red above> in `block in element': no block given (yield) (LocalJumpError) What I don't understand is why it would call the *self.element* method again at all. I thought it only does that once at the start, when the class is declared. I don't want to pass it a block here because I already did that when I defined the element in the first place. Is my approach just completely off-base, here? Abe -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
