I am writing some tests for a web application, and my initial code in one of
the tests was something like this:
=begin
setup code and includes/requires
watir
=end
=begin
other tests needed to get to this point
=end
def FileCompanyInfo
if $browser.text_field(:name, 'Name').exists? then
if $broswer.text_field(:name, 'Name').verify_contains("") then
$browser.text_field(:name, 'Name').set(::CLIENTNAME)
$browser.text_field(:name,'Addr1').set(::CLIENTADDR1)
=begin
Code to fill in rest of form
=end
end
end
end
And this works beautifully.
So next step was to add in some assertions and actual make the tests useful.
The code then becomes:
=begin
setup code and includes/requires
watir, test/unit and test/unit/ui/console/testrunner
=end
class TC_myTests < Test::Unit::TestCase
=begin
other tests needed to get to this point
=end
def test_FileCompanyInfo
assert($browser.text_field(:name, 'Name').exists?)
if $broswer.text_field(:name, 'Name').verify_contains("") then
$browser.text_field(:name, 'Name').set(::CLIENTNAME)
$browser.text_field(:name,'Addr1').set(::CLIENTADDR1)
=begin
Code to fill in rest of form
=end
end
end
end
And this doesn't work - the assertion fails. I have a couple of other tests
before this that work just fine, as those are testing the process of navigating
to this page. The assertions in those work are working as expected. I've
tried accessing these text boxes by name, by index and by aftertext, and when I
have the class in place, it's as if the fields do not exist (even though I can
open the source and see that it does indeed exist)
I am new to Ruby and watir, though I am familiar with several other languages.
What would cause these text fields to become invisible when I add this class
definition around the set of methods? I've looked at the documentation and
several examples, and as far as I can tell, it should work still.
If anyone could point out what I am missing or what I have done wrong, I'd
greatly appreciate it as my project and learning have ground to a sudden
standstill.
