Here is a brief code snippet from one of my scripts. I will explain it in detail. $objWatirBrowser.image(:id, "menu_SearchInventory").fireEvent("onMouseOver") # Mouse over the menu $objWatirBrowser.textField(:id, "nav_new_vsZipCode").set($objProperties.strCurrentZipCode) # Set the zip code $objWatirBrowser.link(:id, "nav_new_vsZipCode_a").click # Click on the Next image $objWatirBrowser is an instance or object of IE. You probably have something similar already. The image I am referencing on the first line is an image that represents my menu, maybe you have a div instead or something else, then change it to what you need. The fireEvent method after that causes the browser to think that there is a mouse cursor over the menu. This results in making the menu appear or drop down. On the second line I fill in a field that is located on my menu. This is pretty atypical (not normal), but you can do that if you need to. On the third line I am clicking on a link that is in my menu again. I hope that this may help you somewhat in answering your question. Basically the steps I've taken here are: 1.

I have a question that concerns dynamically generated html tags and how to reference them. In a specific frame, a certain operation creates a new object. This object was given a name by my automation tool to make it unique and recognizable by my tool.

I can reference the object using ...image( :id,'imgTreeNodePlusMinus_8158' ) which is a product generated identifier which is a value that I cannot predict. What I want to use is the identifier that my tool generates, in this case 'A0MGdyn0.78108587205286'.

The html for the object is:

Active Element: [SPAN], Frame: [fraNavigation], Index: [150] class=DATAZONE-TREE-NODE-TEXT id=spnNodeText_8158 onmouseover=treeItemMouseOver(); style="COLOR: #7d69d6; TEXT-DECORATION: underline" onclick=navToASPPageForNode(); onmouseout=treeItemMouseOut(); udefModuleID="8" udefNodeDesc="A0MGdyn0.78108587205286 for DEV2003DC" udefModuleName="Administration " udefNodeID="158" udefASP="" udefContext="machines" udefNodeTitle="A0MGdyn0.78108587205286" udefHelp="AdminMachMngrMGDynam.htm" udefParentNodeID="7"> A0MGdyn0.78108587205286

The only unchanging identifier for this object is the value 'A0MGdyn0.78108587205286'. Is there a way to reference the object using this value?

I have tried: .image( :id, /A0MGdyn0.78108587205286/ ).click .image( :id, 'A0MGdyn0.78108587205286' ).click .image( :title, 'A0MGdyn0.78108587205286' ).click as well as .span with the above parameters. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=5974&messageID=16727#16727 From forum-watir-users at openqa.org Tue Jan 2 23:43:28 2007 From: forum-watir-users at openqa.org (san) Date: Tue, 02 Jan 2007 22:43:28 CST Subject: [Wtr-general] Image Uploading Problem....

First thing, WATIR uses AutoIt to click on JavaScript or Modal dialogs from IE. Second AutoIt isn't flakey - it's very solid, but you need to know how to use it. I have a solution to clicking on modal dialogs, and I just run it when I think there could be a dialog. Here's my method, and I'll explain it in detail. *********************************************************** def intCloseDialog()   # Create an AutoIt object to use to click on open dialogs   objAutoit = WIN32OLE.new("AutoItX3.Control")   # Look for any open dialogs and close them   ans1 = objAutoit.ControlClick("Microsoft Internet Explorer",'', 'OK')   ans2 = objAutoit.ControlClick("Security Information",'', '&Yes')   ans3 = objAutoit.ControlClick("Security Alert",'', '&Yes')   # Release the clicker object   objAutoit = nil   return (ans1 + ans2 + ans3) end # End: def voidCloseDialog() *********************************************************** First off, you'll need to require "win32ole" for this to work. If you have required watir already then, win32ole should also already be required for you. Now on the first line I create a new WIN32OLE object that is associated with the AutoItX3.Control OLE server. On the second line I tell the objAutoit object to click on a control (dialog in this case) with the title Microsoft Internet Explorer and on the button labeled "OK". I do a similar thing on the next two lines, those are just other possible titles for my dialogs. On the fifth line I set my object to nil so that the memory is cleaned up, then I return the result of having clicked on each on the dialogs. What happens here is AutoIt looks for the dialog first and if it exists then it tries to click on the button you told it to, also if it exists then it returns 1. But if it doesn't exist, then ControlClick returns zero. I just use that number for debugging - it is in no way required for anything. I hope that this actual answer helps you out a little more. AutoIt is a very good tool - I use it in another program I've installed called AutoHotkey. It is a macro program for Windows. AutoIt has a lot of capabilities, so don't not use it! :) Nathan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=5802&messageID=16752#16752 From balakrishna.venkatappa at ionidea.com Wed Jan 3 11:25:45 2007 From: balakrishna.venkatappa at ionidea.com (Balakrishna) Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2007 11:25:45 -0500 Subject: [Wtr-general] javascript Menu In-Reply-To: <55776653.1167779150621.JavaMail.oqa-j2ee@openqa01.managed.contegix.com> References: <592392191723562310@unknownmsgid> <55776653.1167779150621.JavaMail.oqa-j2ee@openqa01.managed.contegix.com> Message-ID: <000b01c72f53$d49ae320$7dd0a960$@venkatappa@ionidea.com> Hi Nathan : Thanks for wonderful explanation.

Angrez, I had difficulty using 'attribute_value'. Here is how I used it along with the html code.

HTML Code:


Ruby/Watir Code:
str_value=$browser.span(:id, "MainLogin_UserNameRequired").attribute_value("style")
puts str_value

Output:
#

I do have two solutions that work (see below) but I'm curious of how this might work. One other thing, for others, is the 'attribute_value' does not work for Watir version 1.4; use 1.5.

Zeljko, thanks this worked.

nchristie, thanks this worked.

I did not try the 'walk DOM tree for checking of disabled or non-visible elements'; this looks 'advanced'. :)

This worked when adding 'watir_ext' as explained and the following:

This behavior is desirable when working with traditional web applications, but gives problems with ajaxy applications like orkut, because they are constantly loading data into the browser. With these apps, you'll have to use click! and then you'll also have to use wait_until to delay your script until the event has been processed sufficiently.

I think as Watir becomes more mature and accepted tools like this will be so very important. Personally I went the roll your own method, though if there was an open source base to build off I would have used that in a second. If i ever get some free time I'm going to attempt to write a custom harness for google.com. I think a working end to end custom harness would be a great way to get discussion going on a number of subjects. now I'm just rambling!

At the upcoming awta conference Im going to demo an app that Ive wriiten for one of my clients that does most of this. Im struggling with the concept of it though - I think I would rather just write ruby code. But I can appreciate why others in the group ( project managers etc ) would want to see results in some simple format. Im thinking of writing something similar as an open source project, but Im very time constrained at the moment. What Im finding is a bigger problem, but may be addressed by something like the tool I mention, is how to deal with the vast quantities of data that we use in our tests, and the relationships between the different data items. If there is enough interest maybe we should start a new rubyforge project to deal with it, rather than use this list.

Basically I'm trying to do a data driven test. I am reading data from access db. The problem I'm having is I'm reading a recordset, then I would like to read each row from the recordset and perform some actions and then read the next row from recordset and perform the actions again. It's like doing the same operation without different data sets. The code I've end up till now is as follows. $dbcounter = 1 $tempcounter = 1 require 'odbc' include ODBC drv = Driver.new drv.name = 'Driver1' drv.attrs['driver'] = 'Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)' drv.attrs['dbq'] = 'C:\dl_alpha.mdb' dbh = Database.new.drvconnect(drv) sth = dbh.run("Select * from tbl_dl") #sth.each do |row| while row = sth.fetch do $var_TNOrder = row[0] $var_LEC = row[1] $var_TN = row[2] $tempcounter = $tempcounter + 1 printf "Entered while loop, TNORder: %s",$var_TNOrder end the problem I'm having here that I'm not able to assign the data value from recordset to my local variables. The while loop executes only after End command. Until end command is reached it does not set any variables. Please can you guide me on this. I am sure there should be a way out.. I am new to ruby.

This menu item has the same attributes as another menu item, but they both do different things. I was using ie.frame("left").link(:id, "21").click (example) however because the link id's change depending on the user access rights I found it time consuming and difficult to manage.

One way is to use some attribute other than [title]. Another is to try asking for testability--that is, getting the developers to change it. Sometimes that's easy--and sometimes it's desirable from points of view other than testability. ---Michael B.

You may be able to do something like ie.frame('whatever').table(:id,'table1').link(:title,'Edit News') and ie.frame('whatever').table(:id,'table2').link(:title,'Edit News') like the other poster said though, a hard index isn't going to be the end of the world if nothing else works. You could also approach the developer and ask for a tag that would work better for you, its always an option.

When I can't quite guess the correct returned data structure, I use IRB at a command prompt. I find IRB to be better at trouble-shooting these kinds of things than working through an IDE. After you get the 'indexes', what do you get if you print the output? i.e. just type 'indexes' at the next line? Do you see a multi-dimensional array? Is it a string? Do you see the data you're looking for? IRB's really good about showing you all the correct brackets and quotation marks. BTW, you don't really mention what you're trying to do or looking for. The loops below seem to work as expected - except for the last one. Is there particular data that you don't see? I usually flatten Arrays Of Arrays when they annoy me. ;) Let us know what you find.

I read in some other posts that firewatir was supposedly slower due to using jssh to send messages to the browser. When I ran the the unit tests for firewatir, the tests completed pretty quickly, however, unit tests for IE Watir was a bit slower in that the browser was less responsive. I was wondering if there have been advancements recently with firewatir because I didn't notice the slowness everyone else was talking about.

I am in the process of rewriting my first Ruby/Watir scripts from a year ago - a site-map walkthrough script to collect some simple Performance metrics. When I first wrote the script, I used the Test/Unit (Class/Test) structure because that was the only way I knew how to structure scripts at that time. (i.e. used the Watir examples as a guide.) A year later, I now know how to structure my scripts in a more regular Ruby script fashion so I updated my walkthrough script. I used a neat trick in my old script to recover from a script error (e.g. assertion failure) and continue on but I seem to be having some problems doing the same thing with the Ruby script format. I was wondering if someone can offer any advice to help me figure this out. Here's what I've got so far: ## Main script snippet: ... # open the IE browser $ie = IE.new # A) Walk the Public Pages. => Need to Trap this so the "something_went_wrong" variable works correctly page_set_to_check( walk_Public_Pages ) ---- # Here's the page_set_to_check() method: module site_walkabout_methods def page_set_to_check( page_set ) begin page_set rescue => e $something_went_wrong = 'Yes' end write_status end end ---- So, the "walk_Public_Pages" routine gets called, but if there's an assertion failure in it (e.g. because of an incorrect link name), the "rescue => e" part of page_set_to_check() doesn't run like I would expect it to. In fact, the whole script terminates at this point! Please let me know if you have any helpful suggestions to get the script to auto-recover and continue. Thanks.

My first reaction is to say that somewhere deeper down in your code an exception is begin thrown and is silently beginning handled thus said function returns even though things didn't work.

I'm basically calling a method (e.g. 'walk_Public_Pages') from within a method (page_set_to_check) that is supposed to trap the errors/exceptions. However, if there's an error in the 'walk_Public_Pages' method, it not only escapes out of the page_set_to_check() method, but also out of the whole script! I'm wondering if changing the main "module" to a "class" will have a different effect? Just a shot in the dark. I'm chasing another goose at the moment, so I'll try that shortly. P.C.

Basically I was using the rescue block in a way that Ruby didn't pay attention to. So I made the following changes to my script: (1) delete the page_set_to_check() method (2) added the following rescue block to the end of each page set (site-walking) method: ---- module site_walkabout_methods ... def walk_Public_Pages # launch ie # goto some page # get page size and download time # click to another page. yadda, yadda. # ... rescue => e $something_went_wrong = 'Yes' puts e ensure write_status end end ---- So the methods themselves are self-correcting and I don't need to try and capture exceptions with some umbrella method. Cool. I'm happy. Moving on.. Cheers. Paul C. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

How much faith should we put in the IE.down_load_time attribute if it doesn't include the render time? I mean, I *watched* the Home page take ~ 1 second to load in the IE browser, so I really don't believe that it took 0.015 seconds to download to the user. I think I'm going to keep the extra column in my output file for now and plot both lines on the charts for comparison. Thanks for checking this, Chris.

These are NOT in today's dev gem, but will be in the next one. You can pull them from trunk if you like. A workaround for this problem for earlier versions of 1.5 is this: 1. Manually register autoit: >regsvr32 AutoItX3.dll 2.

The Watir API Reference doesn't give any > insights into how the "down_load_time" attribute works. The "down_load_time" is the amount of time that watir waits in the wait method that is automatically called after the click. It should be roughly the same as the "wait_time" defined below: ie. button(:name, /UpdateSettingsButton/).click! then = Time.now ie.wait wait_time = Time.now - then I'm confused by your example because your output does not match your code. I've updated the rdoc for down_load_time to read: # The time, in seconds, it took for the new page to load after executing the # the last command Is this clearer?

In the file 'winClicker.rb' and method 'clickJSDialog_NewProcess()' myapp = "#{@path_to_clicker}/clickJSDialog.rb #{button}" winsystem(" start #{myapp}") Now this thing will not work if user has configured to open the files with '.rb' extension with some editor like Notepad, wordpad, gvim etc. So what I suggest is to change the myapp variable to include ruby interpreter also like this: myapp = "ruby #{@path_to_clicker}/clickJSDialog.rb #{button}" This will use ruby interpreter to open the file no matter what user has configured on his/her machine. I faced this problem during testing on my machine. Similarly, we need to append ruby interpreter in the function 'setFileRequesterFileName_newProcess' which is used to set FileName in the file_field control. Correct me if I am wrong here.

This sounds rights to me. Better would be to use "rubyw" which does the same thing as "ruby" but without a console window. Would you like to make this change yourself or submit a patch?

Am I correct in assuming that the `$something_went_wrong` variable is used inside of the `write_status` method? If so, is the incorrect behavior coming from what the `write_status` method produces? To validate that your exception is correctly behing handled, put some simple action that will indicate the rescue operation is happening, like: begin page_set rescue => e puts 'inside the rescue now' $something_went_wrong = 'Yes' end write_status end Now if you see `inside the rescue` outputted with an incorrect URL, you'll know you are getting inside the rescue block, and the assignment of `$something_went_wrong` is a syntantically correct statement, so that's not the problem and it should equal `Yes`. The only thing left to check is what's inside the `write_status` function. It could be the case that this function is not behaving correctly in both states, 1) an exception was not thrown, 2) an exception was thrown. If this function relies on `$something_went_wrong` and it is not present, a(n) [silent] error may be occuring. Check out this function or post it's guts to the forums, along with your console output on execution for further assistance if this is not enough to debug your problem.

I do have it working, as per my last message in this thread, but I'll offer some additional info here since you asked. The $something_went_wrong variable is a legacy variable from when I first wrote these scripts using Watir and I was trying to tell the script that a particular 'test' method did not successfully complete. It isn't really used in the write_status() method. That variable is used by a "complete_walkabout()" method that runs at the end of the script -- which cleans up the environment (e.g. closes files) and makes a decision based on the successful completion of the test (i.e. whether or not "something went wrong"). I'm in the process of refactoring the logic and how the code works, and am taking it one step at a time. (I may even end up getting rid of that variable.) Basically what the script does is this: Open IE, walk the web app's site map, capture some performance metrics and close the browser. What I *want* the script to do is recover from any page or link that it fails to connect to. The script *used* to do this in a very neat way, but that way wasn't transferable to the new Ruby script structure that I'm using. So how do you get the script to recover from an error and make it through right to the very end? (I asked myself) I put all the "walk the site map pages and capture metrics" code into individual methods and I needed to find a way to capture any exceptions raised. I'm not doing any explicit [test] assertions in these scripts, but the effect is the same. i.e. if it fails to connect to a page, the script fails on the next line and it stops cold. So I tried to wrap it in a rescue block like this: ---- begin call_page_walking_method() rescue => e #do something end #keep going ---- However, as soon as I realised that I needed to do this for *every* page set I was going to call, I put that (above) code into a method on its own. The problem is that the above rescue block *doesn't* work. Ruby didn't get what I was trying to do. If the called method failed then the script just stopped, it didn't return and get rescued like I thought it would. That's when I discovered that you can put the rescue block *within* the body of a method. So I moved it to the method that does the actual walking, and now it recovers nicely. Voila! So I learned one way how a regular Ruby method is different from the Test::Unit::TestCase class' 'test' method. The TestCase class will still proceed to a 'teardown' method if any individual test method terminates unexpectedly, but a regular Ruby method just stops where it failed. Now I know how to get my non-TestCase (Ruby/Watir) scripts to recover gracefully from exceptions. Cool. Does that help clarify things? If not, mail me off-list and we'll chat. Cheers.

I'm confused by your example because your output does not match your code. Which part is confusing? The script actually outputs in columns of data to a CSV file. I just picked a row and listed the results here in a more email friendly fashion. If you're wondering why the results don't match, then I'm confused too! The second RT value is always larger than the IE.down_load_time value by a difference of 0.12 to 1.5 seconds. The average seems to be a difference of ~ 350 ms, which is noticeable. I've updated the rdoc for down_load_time to read: > > # The time, in seconds, it took for the new page to load after > executing the > # the last command > > Is this clearer? > I'm not sure. It sounds a bit better than the current description of: "use this to get the time for the last page download." I like the definition and code example that you gave at the top of your reply. That's the clearest I think. All the other Public methods in the Watir API reference have nice popup windows with code in it, so your description and code example above follows the pattern nicely. ...There's just the matter of trying to figure out why there's a difference in my Response Time values. I'll keep collecting both for now so that I can continue developing my scripts. Maybe inspiration will come to me as I collect more data and update the scripts further. Currently, it looks to me like RT = (ie.down_load_time) + (additional IE render time or other unspecified delay) Cheers.

Some of the time page can't get downloaded fully, due to slow speed, then my code breaks, by giving message object not found - something like this. I tried ie.wait, but it is also not working for me as there are lots of frames in the page, page can get download but the elements inside the frame used to take time for downloading. If I use sleep 5, or sleep 10 then it works for me, but I want to avoid using sleep in my code, what should be the better approach of doing this. Please help me out.

The script may not be the prettiest from a programming perspective, but it's a small site and the script works, so it's good enough for me for now.) I think the Home page might be cached in the browser and so the "download" time is negligible. The server response time navigating between the pages still takes about a second though. So I'm wondering if IE is making a distinction between how long it takes to get the page versus how long it takes to finish what it was doing with the last page visited. Dunno. I'll try changing up the order in which the pages are loaded and clearing the browser cache to see if it makes a difference, but the ~300 ms difference between the timers seems to be consistent. (There are other pages with a bigger time difference than that observed with the Home page!) Paul C. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I could have put a space " " inside the parentheses for split, but I couldn't see whether you had more than one space in that list of values. So I used a regular expression /\w+/ instead, which means "any whitespace at all, including tabs and newlines and such". Then we just count. We need to know the number of elements in the array, so we use "length". You wanted your text to start counting at one, but arrays are indexed by zero, so I have to slice the array with "number-1" for each time through the loop. BTW, this is a classic associative array, also known as a hash. A hash might be a better way to arrange this information. You could search google for "ruby array" and "ruby hash" for more information.

I'm almost finished updating another script that walks through the pages of another web app and I'm noticing that the average difference between the timers is ~ 2.0 seconds! This second app is mostly frames though. So when I issue the following command: ie.down_load_time Does it report the download time for the whole page, i.e. including all of the sub-frames, or does it only return the download wait time for the outer IE frame? Since I've written a separate method ('wait_for_frames') that waits for all of the frames to finish loading before proceeding to the next LOC, it got me wondering that perhaps your code example below doesn't include the wait time (and therefore download time) for all of the sub-frames. Do you know if this would be fixed in 1.5.x? Please let me know. Thanks.

The only thing that I can think of is to ask your developer to add verification code as custom property to image. Or add custom tag somewhere at page. Just do not forget to remove that code once it is moved to production, because you will leave open door for machines pretending to be humans. -- Zeljko Filipin zeljkofilipin.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I recommend using 1.8.2. However, any version of Ruby (1.8.2 or greater) should work fine as long as you are not using our modal dialog (showModalDialog, aka modal web dialog) support.

I'm not quite sure what you asking. 1. Is it possible to for Watir to check your ruby version and autoit and other stuff and spit out a warning? A. Yes it is technically possible. 2. Is it a good idea? A. I don't know. Different features of watir have different requirements. My view has been that each feature should spit out a warning if its requirements aren't met. We've just updated the modal_dialog and FileField#set code to do this. My view at the moment is that is a better approach, but i am certainly open to ideas on this. 3. Would you accept a change to Watir for a new method such as "Watir.validate_dependencies" that would automatically verify all of these dependencies. A. I don't see why not. Then the only question would be whether this method should be run automatically on load. If we had the method first, it would help the community decide whether it should be automatically invoked. 4. Will you write this method for us? A. Maybe some day. I would need to hear more. My concern is that it would lead people to think that Watir only worked with 1.8.2 (say) which is not true and for some might turn them away.

I know this is an old thread, and you got some answers. I also know that this was broken in1.5 until recently, so you must have been referring to 1.4.1. Correct? I am curious whether the new implementation in 1.5 HEAD is ok. If it has performance problems, i would like to see reports/jira tickets.

The method was completely rewritten shortly after 1081, which broke it, but when i recently repaired it (with a one-word fix), it seems that the new code is in fact significantly better. Good to hear. Thanks to Charley for the new method.

OK. How do those other tools do encryption and decription? I've never used them. Sorry, I'm not trying to be difficult, but in my experience, it's rare that data theft is an issue in a test environment. You could take Mr. Kruse's suggestion and rot13 it, which can be decoded easily, or you could use a Basic Authentication scheme which is "user:password" encoded in base64, and a little bit harder to decode (although wireshark/ethereal decrypts it for you on the fly), or you can use any other encryption scheme you'd like. I'll suggest that it is unlikely that any kind of password encryption will ever be built into Watir directly, but there are any number of encryption schemes available in Ruby. Google for "ruby encryption" to get an idea of what's available. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It happens to me every time I install watir. Open a command line, go to folder where AutoItX3.dll is located. If you installed Ruby to C:\ruby\ and your gem name is watir-1.5.1.1141 it should be C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.5.1.1141\watir\. Type this. regsvr32 AutoItX3.dll Pop up will appear with message that registration was successful. If message says that registration was not successful, you are not logged in as administrator.

Test-unit does not execute test cases when they are loaded (e.g. with require). Rather, after all the test cases are loaded, test-unit will automatically build (and then run) a suite that consists of all subclasses of Test::Unit::Testcase. It doesn't matter what order they were loaded! That's how it works. If you don't like that behaviour, you will need to look at the rdoc for test-unit and build your own test-suite instead. I know, an example would be handy, but ... maybe some one else can help.

Message-ID: <37c405480701191326t6c67686bqf3666eaf19075cdb@mail.gmail.com> I just found what looks like a bug in Ruby. Here's a simple script that will expose this bug: ---- irb(main):001:0> x = 1 => 1 irb(main):002:0> puts 'foo' + x.to_s +'bar' SyntaxError: compile error (irb):2: syntax error puts 'foo' + x.to_s +'bar' ^ from (irb):2 ---- I finally figured out that it was the Plus sign *right next* to the "bar", *after* the "to_s" method that Ruby dislikes. If I insert a space, I get the correct output. If I take out both spaces, I get the correct output. It's only if there's a space after the "to_s" and none between the Plus sign and string-in-quotes that it blows up. That is: > puts 'foo' + x.to_s + 'bar' # this works > puts 'foo' + x.to_s +'bar' # doesn't work > puts 'foo' + x.to_s+ 'bar' # this works > puts 'foo' + x.to_s+'bar' # this works Anyone know why this might be? Is there a proper place where I might pass this information on? (I'm not on any other Ruby groups right now.) I haven't played with it anymore, so I wonder if this bug exists with other methods. I'll try to remember to be consistent with my spaces moving forward. Thought some of you might be interested. Cheers.

I use it quite a bit, but then again I'm one of the developers :) Of course, it's unfortunately not going to fit the bill yet for WATiR since it relies on Win32::OLE which is implemented in C on matzruby, and we don't have a replacement for JRuby yet.

That said, I'll caveat by saying that we have another limitation of not having a full-fledged implementation of the Ruby Marshal module. This is a high priority for us to fix though, because Rails session persistence depends on it.

It's my fault. Really. Last weekend, I had some folks in from out of town (http://awta.wikispaces.com/) and I had to apologize about six times before they actually accepted that it really was my fault. I'm sorry. We recently released a new version that fixes this problem. *Everybody using Watir 1.5 should upgrade to this latest version (1.5.1.1145). * http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Development+Builds of Watir If you have been using Ruby 1.8.4 or 1.8.5 with Watir 1.5, you probably have seen intermittent errors and crashes. That is because of something I did with Watir. Specifically, I packaged Watir with a modified version of Ruby's win32ole library--C code. And I modified the version from 1.8.2, which doesn't work with later versions of Ruby. It causes them to crash. The latest version of Watir fixes this problem by only loading the modified win32ole library if you are using Ruby 1.8.2. If you've been thinking "Jeez how can everyone be so excited about Ruby when it is crashing all the time," it is because they haven't been using the code that I horked. Please update your version of Watir 1.5 right away. Sorry. Those of you still using Watir 1.4 don't need to worry. You should be fine no matter what version of Ruby you are using.

Thanks. > My advice is that you continue to use Test::Unit. By default, Test::Unit will create a Test::Suite made up of all your tests, but in a somewhat random order. If you create the Suite yourself instead, you can control the order. I suggest you look at the Rdoc for Test::Unit and create the suite yourself.

You need to download two separate packages in case you want your test cases to run both on IE and Firefox. As FireWatir is written using Watir code base 1.4.1, so there would be very few changes that are required to your test cases. Otherwise you just have to instantiate a new instance of Firefox and you are done. Let me know in case you face any problems while using FireWatir. Regards.

This is largely because Watir is stupid in this area. We made a bad design choice with Watir 1.0. We'd now like to make Watir consistent and start with 0 everywhere (like everything else in Ruby) but this would raise compatibility issues.

This came about because of discussions at Bret's AWTA conference not long ago. Let me quote my weblog: If you're interested, send me an email or an IM or smoke signals or something. Here is the flyer Elisabeth Hendrickson and I have been sending: What: A peer-driven gathering of developer-testers and tester-developers to share knowledge and code. When: Saturday, February 24, 8:30AM ? 5:00PM This is a small, peer-driven, non-commercial, invitation-only conference in the tradition of LAWST, AWTA, and the like. The content comes from the participants, and we expect all participants to take an active role. There is no cost to participate. We're seeking participants who are testers who code, or developers who test. Our emphasis will be on good coding practices for testing, and good testing practices for automation. That might include topics like: test code and patterns; refactoring test code; creating abstract layers; programmatically analyzing/verifying large amounts of data; achieving repeatability with random tests; OO model-based tests; creating domain specific languages; writing test fixtures or harnesses; and/or automatically generating large amounts of test data. These are just possible topics we might explore. The actual topics will depend on who comes and what experience reports/code they're willing to share. For more information on the inspiration behind this meeting, see two of my recent blog entries: http://www.testobsessed.com/2007/01/17/tester-developers-developer-testers/ http://www.testobsessed.com/2007/01/19/where-are-the-developer-testerstester-developers/ This is an open call for participation. Please feel free to forward it to other Developer-Testers and Tester-Developers who you think are interested enough to want to spend a whole Saturday discussing the topic and sharing code. Proposed Agenda: * Timeboxed group discussions: "Essential attributes of a tester-developer and developer-tester (differences and similarities)" and "What tester-developers want to learn from developers; what developer-testers want to learn from testers." * Code Examples/Experience Reports (we figure we have time for 3 of these) * End of day discussion: Raising visibility for the role of a DT/TD, building community among practitioner If you're interested in participating, please send me an email answering these questions: * Which are you: a tester who codes or a developer who tests? * How did you come to have that role? * What languages do you usually program tests in? * What do you hope to contribute to the Bay Area DT/TD summit? Do you have any code or examples that you'd like to share? (Please note that you should not share anything covered by a non-disclosure agreement.) * What do you hope to get out of the Bay Area DT/TD summit? Thanks!

We welcome your thoughts in this area. I think being consistent everywhere would be a good thing. If that means being consistent with Ruby and starting at 0, then so be it. Personally, I think the person who first coded programming/scripting languages to start counting at 0 should have had his/her head examined and then been committed to an insane asylum. I've learnt many programming languages over the years and even once sat and painfully read through a series of programming language manuals as long as a desk shelf back almost 20 years ago. I still recall how that language was hailed as a Fourth-Generation Language that was supposed to make programming easier because the syntax and vocabulary (commands, methods, etc) were closer to more natural language. It seemed ironic that the "easier" the language was supposed to be, the more manuals were required to teach you how to program in it. The point here is that it is "natural" for human beings to start counting at 1. I have never in my entire life ever heard anyone start counting at 0. *That* is stupid. "So, Paul, how many children do you have?" "Well, my first boy would be 0, and my second son would be 1, so I guess I have 1 child." Even the Cat in the Hat's best friends are "Thing 1" and "Thing 2". I would have like to have heard Dr. Seuss' thoughts on the topic of counting. If machines can't be made to speak *our* language, then they're not very useful. Forcing people to think and code in that way is an impediment to clear, human thought IMHO. In the absence of something good, I'll take something consistent. The "enemy you know" and all that, right? If you want to attract non-programmers to the use of the tool, then you will have to appeal to them in a friendly, non-programming way. (That would include not forcing them to rethink how to count because that's not a friendly thing to do.) I recall Gracie Hopper once saying that if you hear the phrase "that's the way it's always been done" then you know it's time to change it. Well, you asked for my thoughts. ;-) Thanks for asking. Let me just put this soapbox away for now.. ;-) Cheers. Paul C. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This is the source of the "to_a()" method (`Watir.rb` : Line 2432, v1.4.1 ): def to_a raise UnknownTableException , "Unable to locate a table using #{@how} and #{@what} " if @o == nil y = [] table_rows = @o.getElementsByTagName("TR") for row in table_rows x = [] for td in row.getElementsbyTagName("TD") x << td.innerText.strip end y << x end return y end I'm sure this message board won't format this aesthetically, but take a look at the statement, " table_rows = @o.getElementsByTagName("TR")". It appears that this particular method only starts grabbing cells from rows [i]only[/i], hence the "TR". I believe this could be fixed by starting this logic with a check for a "TH" row. Then the subsequent "x << td.innerText.strip" only retrieves cell text values starting from the first row. Hope this helps :) Nathan Christie --------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=6193&messageID=17709#17709 From forum-watir-users at openqa.org Fri Jan 26 13:52:28 2007 From: forum-watir-users at openqa.org (Nathan Christie) Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2007 12:52:28 CST Subject: [Wtr-general] same text fordifferent urls..

This occurs sometimes with both IE6 and IE7. It seems to be unclear what causes this mysterious behavior. For example I set up a windows scheduled task to run a batch file that runs one of my watir scripts, and when that task begins an IE OLE server connection is obviously made, but the IE window never appears for the duration of the test. But when I double click on the batch file without the task, the IE window usually appears. Nothing has changed execpet that instead of the Windows task scheduler running the batch file, I myself am double clicking on it to run it. Also I only have one screen, and nothing special really going on. Any other ideas?

Your link should actually point to a real URL that works in case someone has JS turned off. This way you can select the link with ie.link(:url, 'linkurl'). If you give the url a unique id or even a class that all ajax urls will use, you can use JS (most likely a JS library) to select the links and add event handlers to them (and possibly parse the url to understand what the request params are), making the AJAX call and killing the event so the browser doesn't actually request the page. That's how I would do it. -Ryan Naga Harish Kanegolla wrote: > Hi all, > Till now I am using ie.link(:url,"http"//www.xyz/abc.html") for a link in watir.Now I have a problem for the ajax link. i.e., the url obtained in the html source is > add a term > > So how could i use this url for the link in watir??

You probably should start by googling for "ruby test/unit". The best recommendation I have is to get a good book on the subject: "Programming Ruby 2nd Edition" has an excellent section on testing (and is worth having on general principles), and Brian Marick's new book "Everyday Scripting with Ruby" is also really good. Watir itself doesn't have it's own assertion rules, most people either rely on Ruby's 'test/unit' or roll their own. If you don't want to use 'test/unit', your basic building block is a conditional statement: if puts "Test passed!" else puts "Test failed!" end On 1/30/07, Nathan wrote: > He he, so I've written several libraries, spiders, and bots using Watir as my interface to the web through Internet Explorer now, and I never took the time to really get down and dirty with the basic testing stuff for which Watir was intended.

Should we? Are there other features that were added to FireWatir that aren't in Watir::IE? As we think about recombining all the different versions of Watir, we will have to support a common API across the versions, so we will need to have a way of reaching agreement on these kinds of issues.

If you can see that little dot, and notice the output, there is only one test. Seriously, get a book pretty soon. The dot means that the test passed. An "F" means failure, and an "E" means error. Within your Test::Unit::TestCase, every method that starts with the characters "test_" will be considered one pass or one fail, regardless of how many assertions that method contains. You are free to have one assertion per "test_" method, or as many as you like. Now I want to break up my test into specific components, but I don't see that browsing to the page every time is very efficient, nor is it anything like the way that our commercial competitor (Watir's) QTP does things. This is generally considered a feature. :) So I'm thinking I'm going ot need to write my own framework ultimately, but anyway. So far I have two assertions in here, but they don't count as tests!? If you want them to be two different tests, put them into two different "test_" methods. Just BTW, the behavior upon failure *is* probably what you want. You should try it out. Also, my personal advice is to relax for awhile about the framework, and get a good solid understanding of the 19 (!) different assert() methods that Ruby provides; then look into what the Rails people have done with custom assert() methods, and investigate Rspec, before you get all framework-wacky. I don't mind answering these questions, you're definitely on the right track, but you're moving fast enough now to need to read up. -Chris From bret at pettichord.com Tue Jan 30 18:16:24 2007 From: bret at pettichord.com (Bret Pettichord) Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 17:16:24 -0600 Subject: [Wtr-general] Watir 1.4.1 and 1.5 gems can be installed In-Reply-To: <45902822.1170189003784.JavaMail.oqa-j2ee@openqa01.managed.contegix.com> References: <45902822.1170189003784.JavaMail.oqa-j2ee@openqa01.managed.contegix.com> Message-ID: <45BFD1C8.6040100@pettichord.com> Nathan wrote: > When I use for example footerDiv = ie.div(:id, "FooterContainer") on our website, all of which is valid, then do oleObj = footerDiv.ole_object, I also get nil.

If you're only using Watir, such as I am currently, I found that it usually is best to build your own [test] framework / API for your particular application. It's actually sort of fun to build an API using Watir; there's nothing better than three or four layers of abstraction to simplify things :) The goal of your API should be to mimic business and user functions so that you'll build the tools (methods) you need to create a comprehensive automated test suite using Ruby/Watir. I would create a class that represents the object your are testing, then build methods that control it. So for example, write Watir methods for this classs that allow a user to login, process a claim, make a payment, then logout. Once you have these simple functions in place, stick your custom class as a [ require 'MyApp' ] inside of your test suite / case. Now you can use these methods in your test cases. require 'test/unit' require 'IS' # <<< my custom class representing class TC_LoginScreen < Test::Unit::TestCase def setup() $is = IS.new( "http://serverName/login.aspx" ) end def test_login_incorrect_password() $is.login( "username", "badPassword" ) assert_equal( $is.get_errors(), "Invalid Password", "Password error should have been displayed." ) end def test_login_correct_password() $is.login( "username, "goodPassword" ) assert_nil( $is.get_errors(), "No errors should have been thrown." ) end You get the picture, also, it's usually best practice to limit your assertions to one per test case.

There is the Watir method in the IE object `attach( :how, what )` that is very helpful for this. Depending on the innerworkings of your application as they pertain to cookies, session ids, etc., it may be best to "log out" of your application if this is applicable, or you may want to close the browser at the end of each test. Ideally your tests should be very granular and map as closely to the business process the user would have to work through. If you create a custom class for your app, just make the method that initializes the object in your Unit Test's "setup()" method conditional. Setups a begin / catch / ensure exception handling block that first attempts to attach (Watir::IE::attach()) to your IE windows, if the exception is throw, just handle it by instantiating a new window using (Watir::IE::start()). I'm not sure of your particular application's behavior, and you may need to close the browser window after each test and create a new one at the beginning of each test. This would probably be rare though. Although it does increase overall test [suite] execution time, it's probably a good practice to do so. Let me know if you need any more explanation on this, as I felt I was kinda rambling. Thanks!

In general, I agree, but I also find it's often useful to have multiple assertions in one test case, where the test case maps to a business function, and you need information about the whole business function. My example is for SOAP API functions. I have one test method for each API function available. Each test method contains a number of assertions about that function. That buys me two things: first, a failure tells me that the entire API function is suspicious and needs investigation. Second, a failure for one API function does not stop the tests for the other functions from running, and I don't have to build try/catch logic into individual assertions.

As for the framework writing thing - I've already written and rewritten three frameworks using Watir as a helper. One for a script launching agent, one for a bot, and one for a spider ( at one instance the bot and spider used the same framework, but not anymore). Now I'm working to simplify all of that and make it more robust. I'm still using Watir 1.4.1 because 1.5 hasn't been "released" (I think). And so writing a framework would be much less than a big deal to me. I can pretty well fork out a framework in less than a week, maybe a couple of days at best.

Watir actually gets its version number from the revision of the watir.rb file. In your case it was last changed in 1141 and 1142 only affected other files.

I have done some complicated testing with WATIR and was impressed, but i felt that Iwas on my own when it came to assembling WATIR tests into a framework, that could discover and execute tests and produce a test report. In both cases I had to write my own Ruby code for this. I felt this was an unnecessary burden, and not something that would be achievable by our testers. I suppose I wanted a test/unit style execution & report harness around my WATIR tests. In my inexperience I never considered that I could just *wrap* the WATIR tests in test/unit.

Once you get the focus you can access text area using normal watir statements like $ie.text_field(:id, 'some_id').value = 'some value' Let me know if this works. - Angrez On 1/30/07, Suman Goel wrote: > > Also, firefox, web developer tool's display form details feature shows me > the following for the required fields: > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------ > > *From:* wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org [mailto: > wtr-general-bounces at rubyforge.org] *On Behalf Of *Suman Goel > *Sent:* Monday, January 29, 2007 10:27 PM > *To:* wtr-general at rubyforge.org > *Subject:* Re: [Wtr-general] how to populate hidden text area? > > > > I forgot to mention in my previous email that on irb, this solution is > working as displayed below.

Download a product called spysmith (its linked in the wiki, but i'm sure google can find it). After you install this spysmith allows you to see HTML values of any web page (including modal). The real trick though is that it allows you to see ALL the HTML. So what I do is get all the HTML, save it to a file on my desktop and open it. I'm then able to use the IE dev bar (or connect using the IRB show_all_objects etc) because its now just a normal web page.
