Hi David,
1. about JavaScript - yes it is always a pain ...
But htmlunit is extending and supporting more and more JavaScript - all the
more we support the developer with bug-messages
2. Groovy: you can write Webtests in Goovy - many people do so. Or you
can use Groovy Scriptlets insite your XML-Webtest like:
<groovy description="execute on blur on comment-element with first.line.id:
#{first.line.id}" replaceProperties="true">
step.context.currentResponse.getHtmlElementById('#{first.line.id}').fireEvent("blur")
</groovy>
Or
<groovy description="select the first element of the new created select-box!"
replaceProperties="true" >
step.context.currentResponse.getHtmlElementsByName('target_#{wm_id_1}')[0].options[1].selected=true
</groovy>
We do this at the edge of Ant and Webtest. ;-)
Yours,
Michael

Betreff: [Webtest] Looking for help running Groovy in Canoo Webtest
Hi, my name is David
I work for John Deere Agri Services and I am a member of development team that
is building business solutions for the agricultural industry.
I am , more specifically, a part of the QA group. Not a lot of programming
experience myself but have programmers available to me although their time is
limitted.
This year our development group decided to give Canoo Webtest a try.
I have become familiar with Canoo Webtest and have been able to write automated
test scripts.
We as a team have had some success but have run into a few problems that have
limitted what we can do with Canoo Webtest.
I am hoping to get a little direction from someone that has experience with
Canoo Webtest.
Problem #1
Javascript errors - Controls that are incorporated to some of our webpages
that are written in javascript cause errors when running the scripts and
prevent us from saving pages.
The error messages look like this:
JavaScript error loading page
https://eaqa.jdas.deere.com/Base/Home.aspx?tabcode=HOME&bppik=1
: TypeError: Cannot find function extend in object function Object()
{ [native code for Object.Object, arity=1] } .
(https://eaqa.jdas.deere.com/ajaxpro/Jdas.Applications.ExtendAg.Base.UI.Pages
.Home,Jdas.Applications.ExtendAg.Base.UI.ashx#8)
Problem #2
In attempting to incorporate groovy script into our scripts. Groovy code
doesn't seem to work.
Eclipse is our IDE , btw .
Is there a simple example of a Canoo webtest script that incorporates the
<groovy> tags with simple groovy code that will produce some results that I can
use to verify that I have everything working properly (somewhere out on the
internet)? The example on the canoo site didn't work as is.
Im not sure my configuration is correct in Eclipse.I had to manually add the
plugin using a zip file because the software update feature didn't work.
Can you refer me to any documentation that might get me started
Im not even sure this is the right approach. Is Canoo Webtest commonly used
this way or is it better to right groovy scripts that refer to Canoo webtest
commands?
Any help would be appreciated.
