RadTree + Quick Test Professional

[Tim]

Is there is any way to make the objects in the RadTree tree structure have unique ID’s to define them? We are Using Quick Test Professional 9.5 and the tool can record the objects however, there is no property to uniquely define the object.

Need to have some way to have -+ objects used to expand and collapse the tree, the Name field (Node), and the Icons  be able to have unique way to identify them.

Property options to make unique that QTP can recognize: Class, ID

Thanks,
Tim

Hello Tim,

IDs of items are used for internal purposes. Also RadTreeView for ASP.NET AJAX does not render IDs for the items in order to reduce the output size.That is the reason why we suggest using of custom attributes instead of ID property.

Besides, we use Selenium for integration testing. It is a free tool which currently fits our needs for the present.

Do you mean something like this?  It adds some attributes to the JS which creates the tree, but my DOM browser doesn't show them attached to the individual html nodes.

private static void QTPDecorate(RadTreeNode node)
{
node.Attributes.Add("SEQUENCE", SEQUENCE.ToString());
SEQUENCE++;
}

Hi Tim,

You should use valid attributes only - like id, otherwise they will not be rendered client-side. Please see for reference the code below:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < RadTreeView1.Nodes.Count; i++)
        {
            RadTreeView1.Nodes[i].Attributes.Add("id", RadTreeView1.Nodes[i].ID);
        }
    }

Hope it will be helpful.

Hi. For a project we are working on, we are using QTP as well. There is no way I know of, short of writing a custom Add In for QTP, for QTP to recognize RadTreeView. I settled on using QTP in Low Level Recording Mode when there is a control that QTP cannot recognize. This simply calls Window("Name Of Browser").WinObject("Name of Widow").Click x, y . Where x and y are the coordinates of the mouse click. That should work. We are still testing this.
