How to fetch dynamic data during runtime ?

[Abdul Khader]

Hello All,

 

I have an application on which a random text will be generated dynamically during run time.

Note : This text changes every time I navigate to this page. Even on refreshing page, I get new new text.

 

My concern is :

(1) How do I extract this dynamic text from application ?

(2) After extracting it, how can I split this text based on delimiter ? (There is a delimiter " : " which separates the text into two halves).

(3) How can I get these two halves and save it an excel file ?

 

Thanks

Abdul

Hello Abdul,

To extract the random text from your application first you need to be sure that Test Studio finds the element containing that text by "id" or other non randomly changed element's attribute.

Next step is to create an extraction step in your test to get the randomly generated text.

After that - add a coded step, where you can place C# code that process the sting you have. For example if you want to split strings in C# you may refer to this article. For saving data in Excel format you may search in google for how to and use it also in a coded step.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks for the quick update Nikolay.

I have one more question for you. In same application, we generate PDF reports.

So using Telerik, Is it possible to read/edit PDFs ?

If yes in any case, can you guide me how to approach for automating PDFs using Telerik

 

Thanks

Hi Abdul,

Test Studio does not have the functionality to read or interact with PDF file's content. 

If you need further assistance please let us know.
