Hi Amit,

Thanks for the question and your trial of WebUI Test Studio. While you can run tests in Internet Explorer 7 or 8, Firefox, and Safari, WebUI currently only supports recording in Internet Explorer 7 or 8.

If you have not seen this already, please check out this link that has links to the quick start guide and tutorial videos.

Please also let us know if you have any further questions.

All the best,

HI Nelson
  So now Firefox issue is resolved. I might be doing some thing wrong. Now next issue is i want to pass value of a particular field from local database.

'Set 'NoteIdText' text to '10'

Pages.WelcomeToIPGearCatalog2.FrameSntQuickViewFrame.NoteIdText.Text =

 

"10"


I want to pass value "10" in above example from a local database which will iterate. Can you let me know right sysntax. My local database field name is Col1.

Hello again Amit,

Here is the code in Visual Basic:

'Set 'NoteIdText' text to '10'

Pages.WelcomeToIPGearCatalog2.FrameSntQuickViewFrame.NoteIdText.Text = CType(System.Convert.ChangeType(Data("Col1"), GetType(String)),String)

However, we strongly recommend that you keep the recorded steps as is and only use customized steps for testing scenarios that do not have built in WebUI features that cover the scenarios.

This is for ease of test step maintenance and changes to the test overall. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

All the best,

Hi again Amit,

You can add a Delay Execution Step from the '+ More...' drop down menu in the Record Tab. Please see this Quick Start Guide for reference.

Hello again Amit,

So for your latest post in this ticket, I already replied to your other ticket on the same subject, please view my response there.And while on this ticket concerning the Delay Execution step, I'm glad you got it working.

But if possible, please try using a 'Wait For Visible' or 'Wait For Exist' test step on some element on the page. That way, the test timing will be more dependent on the page itself versus waiting some arbitrary time.

All the best,
