Telerik Test Studio Map Interactions Capabilities

[Mehmet]

Hi,

We have an application based on Telerik components and ESRI map functionalities.

And while we recorded functional test with Telerik Test Studio  if we want to enter coordinate field (latitude and longitude) by selection it from the map , Telerik Test Studio records coordinate. But after if we want to replay this recorded test ,Telerik Test Studio selects the coordinate which is different than recorded one. 

We want to learn that do you support the map interaction activities or not?

Thanks.

Hello Mehmet,
you state:
Telerik Test Studio records coordinate
would you please clarify this.

I checked out some ESRI sample applications like this one:
http://gis.peoriacounty.org/peoriasl/
I assume your application is also Silverlight based.

The actual map object in this application is perceived by Test Studio as a single element. When you record "normal" clicks on this element they will be automatically redirected to the center of the element (the center of the map). This is expected behavior - Test Studio doesn't know you need to click on a specific part of the element and simply records a "generic" click that clicks the center of the control.

You can invoke a coordinate-specific click by using this feature:
http://www.telerik.com/automated-testing-tools/support/documentation/user-guide/troubleshooting_guide/test-execution-problems/invoke-blind-mouse-click.aspx

There depending on your application, there might be differences between the coordinate-specific clicks in different browsers

Hello Stoich,

I'm facing the same problem. We are using ESRI and our application is silverlight based.
In the application, there is a coordinate selection button. When you press that button and after point the location with the mouse,
the point that is clicked is saved as a new coordinate.

In my test, I should pan to the location where I want to select on the map and select a coordinate.
I tried your way, a new step with the prefix "Desktop command" is added but in the step there is no information about the spesific point(coordinate) that I clicked. While executing the test, it pans to different locations and cannot click on this spesific coordinate.

Thanks,

Esra

Hello Esra,
check out this video:

As you can see you can specify the exact point where the click needs to occur. You can also change the coordinates for the click one it has been implemented. Keep in mind that the coordinates are in reference to the highlighted element (which servers as a reference). So "Offset Reference: AbsoluteCenter" mean that the coordinates specify where the click point it in reference to the center of the highlighted element.

Hello Stoich,

Really thanks for the answer, but it still cannot solve my problem. Maybe I am doing something wrong.
Before selecting a spesific coordinate, I should pan to the location first, and then I should select the spesific coordinate. For example,
the map initially shows Washington and around but I want to select a location from London. Therefore, I have to pan to the London first.

But while executing the recorded test, it pans to different locations and clicks different point. (I used your way for clicking spesific point.)
PS: I am only using IE and same resolution.

Thanks,

Esra

Hello Esra,
I believe it might be most time-efficient to look at this issue directly on your machine via screensharing. Please go ahead and suggest a time and I'll send you a meeting request for a GoToMeeting.

All the best,
