Admin vs regular user tests...

[sitefinitysteve]

Ok so I have the databound logins working

So now on certain pages Admins can see things other users cant (like a RadButton)

How do I go about writing the test so that the step passes (looking for the button) in both cases?...like admin=visible, regular=invisible

[sitefinitysteve]

I guess what I'd like to do is right-click on the element in the explorer which i found as admin...then create a new validation step off of that to say element is not visible...

If possible I'd like to do it without a coded step, but I guess I could convert it to one...

[sitefinitysteve]

Should I not be able to do this?

Assert.IsTrue(!Pages.CTPortfolio_defaultaspx.CreateNewButton.IsVisible());

The test fails, and I don;t to duplicate the code from the selector for the CreateNewButton if possible

[sitefinitysteve]

So this is what I came up with...grab the current data bound index and validate

var item = ActiveBrowser.Find.ById("~adminAllUsersComboBox");

if (this.Data["Username"].ToString() == "[e-mail]") {
    Assert.IsTrue(item != null);
}
else {
    Assert.IsTrue(item == null);
}

Easier way?...or coded steps are the only way

Hello Steve,

We also provide ability to use logical steps without using code - you can find more about it here:
http://www.telerik.com/automated-testing-tools/support/documentation/user-guide/logical-steps/if-else.aspx

Basically you can do verification if an element, that is specific for admin only and if this is visible to execute some specific steps, if not to execute other steps, specific for the other users.

Hopefully it will be what you are looking for.

All the best,
