Build 1607: IE9 download dialogs don't work

[Alexey Ivanov]

Hi,

I cannot submit a bug, because I'm not a license holder, so I report it here.

in IE9, download dialogs were replaced be an orange bar at the bottom of the page.
Neither IEDownloadDialog nor DownloadDialogsHandler work in IE9.

Hi Alexey,

I'm sorry for the problems you encountered after upgrading to IE9.

This is a known issue and we are currently working on it. Will let you know when it is fixed and the build including the fix is available for download.

Kind regards,

Ok, thanks
Will wait for the fixed build.

Hello Alexey,

The latest build I pointed you to in the forums here should also solve this problem.

Thank you, Konstantin.
I'll check it and let you know.

Unfortunately, Build 1615 brought no changes in this area :(

When a file is downloading, the "orange bar" at the bottom appears and nothing happens.
Do I miss any setting? Or should I use another class to handle dialogs in IE9?

Hi Alexey,
    download handlers work. in 1615. However, they are not automatically added during recording. Instead you will have to manually add a Dialog Handler at the point in your test where one is required (screenshot 1) (if you're using Test Studio). Here's the code for a test that successfully handles a Download dialog (IE9, WebAii 1615):

ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.invescopowershares.com/products/holdings.aspx?ticker=PQZ");

ArtOfTest.WebAii.Win32.Dialogs.DownloadDialogsHandler downloadDialog = new DownloadDialogsHandler(ActiveBrowser,
DialogButton.SAVE, "C:\\PQZHoldings.csv", Manager.Desktop);

HtmlAnchor a =    Find.ByExpression<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.HtmlControls.HtmlAnchor>("id=ctl00_MainPageLeft_MainPageContent_ExportHoldings1_LinkButton1", "tagname=a");

a.Click(false);

downloadDialog.WaitUntilHandled(10000);

Try to run it. I believe that you're unable to get this to work because of your IE settings. Try adding the app under testing in "Trusted sites". Make sure the download isn't blocked by IE's security setting.

Of course recording will also work in our next official release (R1) expected by the end of this month.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Best wishes,

Ok, I will double check it...

Hello Alexey,
          how did it go? Are you still having problems getting this to work?

Hello Stoich!

It worked.
My fault was that I first clicked the anchor and then started the dialog monitor (this worked in IE 7 and 8 however).
When I changed the call order, then the file started downloading.

BUT, there is another problem: IE9 saves files to the default Downloads folder. That is, it ignores the saveLocation argument passed to the DownloadDialogsHandler constructor.
So in my test I cannot check if that file was actually saved.

Should I additionally configure IE9?

Hi Alexey,
    I've confirmed this problem and I've logged this as a bug. You can track its progress here:

There's no real workaround for this other than changing IE9's default download folder (screenshot 1 and 2).

Hope to hear from you soon.

All the best,
