DatePicker

[Jakub Wilk]

Hi,
I have on page RadDatePicker

<tel:RadDatePicker ID="dpStartDate" runat="server" DateInput-ID="diStartDate">

<Calendar ID="c1" runat="server" FocusedDate="2006-10-30" />
<DateInput CatalogIconImageUrl="" Description="" DisplayPromptChar="_" PromptChar=" "
Title="" TitleIconImageUrl="" TitleUrl=""  />
</tel:RadDatePicker>

I'm trying to set a date in this RadDatePickter using WebAii Free testing framework.
When I get an instance of this picker there is no method or property to set a date. All of the are only "get" properties.
How I can achieve this functionality?
Seba

Hello Seba,

You can access the DateInput part of the picker and type the value in it or simply set the date via the InputValue property. Here is a code snippet for illustration:

RadDateInput input = Find.ById<RadDateInput>("dpStartDate_dateInput_wrapper");
//input.InputValue = DateTime.Today.AddDays(3).ToShortDateString();

input.TypeText(DateTime.Today.AddDays(3).ToShortDateString());

Kind regards,

Hello Seba,

Just a quick note on an improvement we've made and which will be available in the 2.0 version of the Testing Framework. We have added a property which exposes the DateInput part of the Picker's wrapper. Here is a sample test:

[TestMethod]
public void SetDate()
{
    Manager.LaunchNewBrowser();
    ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/calendar/examples/datepicker/custompopup/defaultcs.aspx");

    RadDatePicker picker = Find.ById<RadDatePicker>("RadDatePicker1_wrapper");
    ((RadDateInput)picker.DateInput).InputValue = DateTime.Today.AddDays(3).ToShortDateString();
    Assert.AreEqual(DateTime.Today.AddDays(3), picker.SelectedDate);
}
