Checking radio buttons with the same name.

[SD]

Hi Guys,

I've got a situation in which I have 6 radio buttons arranged in pairs and each pair has an identical name.
In each pair, one radio button is a 'No' and the other 'Yes'. Only 'Yes' or 'No' can be checked in any give time. 

Running the following didn't help as I'm missing something to help distinguishing between the Yes and No radios in each pair...

    var radios = Find.AllControls<HtmlInputRadioButton>();

                foreach (HtmlInputRadioButton rb in radios)

                {

                    rb.Check(true, true);

                }

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<label>
<input type="radio" value="true" name="assessmentForm:generalVerified"/>
Yes
</label>
</td>
<td>
<label>
<input type="radio" value="false" name="assessmentForm:generalVerified"/>
No
</label>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>

Ta,

SD.

Ok, problem solved....

IList<HtmlInputRadioButton> rd = (from b in Find.AllControls<HtmlInputRadioButton>()
where b.Value.Contains("true") select b).ToArray();

rd.ElementAt(1).Check(true, true);

So if you want to mark the 'No' radio control on the 2nd pair from the top, all you do is changing 'true' to 'false' in the LINQ query and

address the 2nd element in the array as I'm doing (ElementAt(1)).

Hello SD,

I'm glad you got this scenario working. You can also try the following:

HtmlInputRadioButton yes = ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputRadioButton>("TextContent=yes","|","name=assessmentForm:generalVerified");
HtmlInputRadioButton no = ActiveBrowser.Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputRadioButton>("TextContent=no", "|", "name=assessmentForm:generalVerified");

It's using a Find Expression to first find the label by content, then ("|") find the radio button child. Please see this documentation on find expressions for reference.

All the best,
