Hi
How to handle the Data Picker/Calender Control using WebUI Dev Edition
What should be the Coded Step for accessing the DD/MM/YYYY using Date Picker.

Thanks

Hi Nitin,
    why do you need to automate this Control with code. Test Studio is designed to keep coding to a minimum. I'm curious as to why you need to use code only. Creating a test with Test Studio's recorder (no coding involved) will save you a lot of time and effort.

Kind regards,

Hi
Actually I am creating Testing Framework

I want to do this by Coding only (No Record and PlayBack method).
Like for Caleder Control I want to Do validation for Invalid Date types and only way is to Hanlde through Coded Step

Hello Nitin,
    
Could you elaborate what is the exact scenario you want to test? If you provide a live url with the page you need to automate and more details about what actions you need to execute or what values need to verify, we will be able to give you more specific directions on how to proceed.

Kind regards,

Hello Pavel

I want to Set the Date (Valid from and Valid To) acording to my requirements for Specific User, also I want Validations like "Start date cannot be after end date"
When I Use Recording method, The Calender Control is Recognized as below:-

// Click 'ContentplaceholderPaymentTermValidityValidFromOpenCalendarDialogButton'
        Pages.AUT.FrameApplicationframe.ContentplaceholderPaymentTermValidityValidFromOpenCalendarDialogButton.Click(false);
// Click 'x10Link'
        Pages.AUT.FrameApplicationframe.x10Link.Click(false);
// Click 'ContentplaceholderPaymentTermValidityValidToOpenCalendarDialogButton'
       Pages.AUT.FrameApplicationframe.ContentplaceholderPaymentTermValidityValidToOpenCalendarDialogButton.Click(false);
// Click 'x27Link'
       Pages.AUT.FrameApplicationframe.x27Link.Click(false);

I want to write the Coded Step to Enter Valid from date say ( 10 May 2009) and Valid To date say ( 10 May 2011), These Dates may vary for different User requirements

Also this would help if i want to Modify date only, No need to Record again the Same Case for only Date Changes.

Hi Nitin,

Is the code you provided generated after you have recorded the clicks in test studio? Unfortunately I am still not able to advise you, as I do not have the page you are trying to test and thus I am not aware of the generated html you need to manipulate. Are you testing an instance of RadCalendar/RadDatePicker, or is it some other control?

Yes
This Code appears after Recording in Test Studio

Here is Code appears in Pages.g file when I add Calender Control Elements (Open Calender Control, Select Date, Select Month, Navigations keys for Changing months) one by one.

here is the File as Attachment <<Pages.g.cs>>

These are not a part of RadCalendar/RadDatePicker, these are part of .net calender control.

Also, I am having one more question

if I want to add @Today's date into Valid from field, How do I pick it from Windows Calender control.  

Hi Nitin,

I have prepared a simple test which is running against this page. Let me know if that helps.

Hi
This Solution is for ASP.Net AJAX control, but in my Application Custom Calender Control is Used

If i select the Next Month through Navigation Keys > then it is recognized as:-

public ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.HtmlControls.HtmlImage WebResourceAxdDWy5yaGUgbh8XmnKNqiUU0rZpHde9eBAzi9MFUR1hdlcjmiGXcoxBgPS28b0NbGULXc3Lqx867dg5cPLC03LgDGJfl0XQooS8243FN0DXG3s6beaKyeggJL0xlboYEn6GDcXjGE28GiLszSYlxCvRUczcOm6Glj2dWYeVgRmKmcDf0AmpT634406742840000000Image
                {
                    get
                    {
                        return Get<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.HtmlControls.HtmlImage>("src=http://Machine5072:81/App/WebResource.axd?d=-wy5yaGUgbh8XmnKNqiUU0rZpHde9eB" +
                                "Azi9MFUR1hdlcjmiGXcoxBgPS28b0NbGULXc3Lqx867dg5cPLC03Lg-dGJfl0XQooS8243FN0DXG3s6b" +
                                "eaKyeggJL0xlboYEn6GDc-xjGE28GiLszSYlx-cvRUczcOm6Glj2dWYeVgRmKmcDf0&amp;t=6344067" +
                                "42840000000", "tagname=img");
                    }
                }

When I select the Date, it is recognized as:-

                /// Find logic
                /// (Html): [tagname 'Exact' a] AND [TextContent 'Exact' 12]
                ///
                /// </summary>
                public ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.HtmlControls.HtmlAnchor x12Link
                {
                    get
                    {
                        return Get<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.HtmlControls.HtmlAnchor>("TextContent=12", "tagname=a");
                    }
                }
How to Automate this or should I enter date manually in textboxes:(

Hi, I am attaching Quick Video to show, what exactly is my Requirement.

Hope this Helps.

Hi Nitin,

As explained previously, it is not possible to create a coded test without having the actual html output of the page in question. That is why I sent you a sample against a publicly available page, on which you can comment.

how Can record a date form datevpicker in test studio?

Hello Habiba,

Test Studio allows you to highlight any element on a page and add steps against it while in recording mode. Please try to add the necessary steps with the help of the elements menu - possibly you might need to locate the element in the DOM tree and then manually add the steps from step builder in the recording toolbar. Depending on the exact variation of the datepicker, you should be able to directly enter the desired date in the input filed. 

In case the above information is insufficient and you need further assistance, please prepare a sample for the datepicker you need to automate along with the scenario to cover and what difficulties you are facing. That way I will be able to provide more exact advice based on the particular case. 

Thanks in advance.
