Hello all, I just startet to use Canoo WebTest to functionally test some web applications. I did use the auto generated tests in a grails project beforehand.
I understand, that I can use groovy scripts in groovy steps from an xml test definition like explained here: http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/manual/groovy.html However I find the approach, grails generated, i.e. test classes extending grails.util.WebTest very elegant. Is there a chance to use grails.util.WebTest outside of a grails project? How would I do that? Here is the minimal example I use for now, wich runs but feels "clumsy" in comparison: build.xml: /-- <project name="BI IDEA Use Case Tests"> <property name="webtest.resultpath" value="webtest-results" /> <property name="webtest.resultfile" value="results.xml"/> <property name="webtest.resultfile.html" value="results.html"/> <property environment="env"/> <property name="env.WEBTEST_HOME" location="/opt/webtest"/> <property name="webtest.home" location="${env.WEBTEST_HOME}"/> <property name="testInWork" value="main"/> <description> <![CDATA[ Invoke the webtest scripts to invoke functional webtests on the Interface ]]> </description> <import file="${webtest.home}/lib/useWebTest.xml" /> </project> \-- main.xml: /-- ... <project name="testMe" basedir="." default="main"> <property environment="env" /> <import file="${env.WEBTEST_HOME}/lib/taskdef.xml" /> <target name="main"> <webtest name="googletest"> &config; <steps> <groovy replaceProperties="false" file="GoogleStep.groovy" /> </steps> </webtest> </target> </project> GoogleStep.groovy: /-- def ant = new AntBuilder() def webtest_home = "/opt/webtest" ant.taskdef(resource:'webtest.taskdef'){ classpath(){ pathelement(location:"$webtest_home/lib") fileset(dir:"$webtest_home/lib", includes:"**/*.jar") } } ant.webtest(name:'Test Google with Groovy, AntBuilder and WebTest'){ steps(){ invoke(url:'http://www.google.com') verifyTitle(text:'Google') setInputField(name:'q', value:'Groovy') clickButton(name:'btnG') verifyXPath(xpath:"//[EMAIL PROTECTED]'http://groovy.codehaus.org/']") } } \-- Any thoughts? -- André Schaefer Raytion GmbH Kaiser-Friedrich-Ring 74 40547 Duesseldorf Germany www.raytion.com Fon +49. 211. 55 02 66. 0 Fax +49. 211. 55 02 66. 19 _______________________________________________ WebTest mailing list [email protected] http://lists.canoo.com/mailman/listinfo/webtest
