Confirmation dialog in code behind method

[Chris Johnson]

I need to write a step with conditional logic. According to the user guide, this requires a code-behind method. I'm having a problem handling a confirmation dialog within the code-behind method: the dialog does not get dismissed, and the test fails with a timeout.

I have a pure WebAii test that handles the same confirmation successfully, so I generated a unit test from that and copied the dialog manager code you see below. Is this the wrong technique for use in a code-behind?

        [CodedStep(@"Delete customer record if it exists")]
        public void DeleteCustomerIfExists()
        {
            string emailAddress = "[e-mail]";

            Pages.CustomerSearch.SearchFor.Text = emailAddress;
            Pages.CustomerSearch.SearchButton.Click(false);

            HtmlAnchor customerLink = Find.ByAttributes<HtmlAnchor>("title=" + emailAddress);
            if (customerLink != null)
            {
                // Handle 'Confirm' dialog.
                ConfirmDialog confirmDialog = new ConfirmDialog(ActiveBrowser, DialogButton.OK);
                Manager.DialogMonitor.AddDialog(confirmDialog);

                // this displays confirmation dialog
                Pages.CustomerSearch.DeleteCustomerButton.Click(false);

                confirmDialog.WaitUntilHandled(5000);
            }
        }

Thanks!

Hello Chris,

Thanks for posting the code. It looks like since you are conditionally adding a dialog handler, presumably no other dialog handler is being explicitly being added to the test.

If this is the case, you would need to start the DialogMonitor manually as in:

Manager.DialogMonitor.Start();

Please reply back if the code above does not resolve the problem

Thank you for posting the answer so quickly. That worked, and now that you point it out, I see it in the sample code at http://www.artoftest.com/support/webaii/topicsindex.aspx. I apologize for not reading the sample more carefully. Thanks again.
