Yeah dealing with stuff like this where it's all dynamically driven,
events based, and there are many many nested objects on the screen is
a challenge. Especially since it looks like the events and other
things are defined in entirely different areas of the code..
For example at the URL given above, this is what you have to do, to
get the 'long text' tab to react to mouseover..
browser.li(:id, 'ext-comp-1001__ext-comp-1003').fire_event
('onMouseOver')
And lo, when you do that, a bunch of html instantly changes, the page
is now different slightly, some clases have changed and as a result
styles change, etc.
but here's the rub.. try to figure out where that action is defined
that caused it to respond to that event? (we KNOW it's defined
somewhere, we just saw it work if you tried that code, the color
slightly changed, and if you were watching with ie-dev-toolbar you
could see the class of that thing changed (which changed the color due
to inheriting fromn CSS)
You can brute force this stuff to some degree, but the problem is,
unless you have some clue as to what elements are responding to what
events, you have a ton of stuff to try before you get lucky and find
out what's going on.
If it was me that had to do this, I'd post a message in one of their
forums <http://extjs.com/forum/> and see if anyone as succesfully
automated tests against their tabs, and ask how it was done. Maybe
get some clues as to what needs to happen. since I've tried a LOT of
stuff just now to automate a simple tab selection on their site and
failed utterly. conversely the app I test has (non extjs) tabs in it
like that, and I don't have any problem automating it by simply firing
'click' events on the links in the tabs.
