I'm trying to make so that tests were run at startup AzureVM.
But the tests are not always pass. What could be the reason? May need to specify the size of the screen?

Coded UI - No Search Properties for Telerik Controls

Hi,

I am new to Coded UI and Telerik controls and having some issues with building coded UI tests on a Telerik based application. The AUT is developed using Telerik WPF (or Winforms not actually sure) and when I record the actions, each edit control is recorded under a separate window. Also, for each of the windows and edit boxes there are no search properties recorded. Though the test seems to work when I run it, it would be a maintenance issue if UIMAP does not have controls with unique properties.I have followed instructions provided in "http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/coded-ui-support.html".

Do I go back to the developers and ask them to define the control names or am I missing something ?

Intermittent failure when FindStrategy.WhenNotVisibleReturnNull is used

Hi,

I am using Find Strategy in the manner described in http://www.telerik.com/forums/how-to-judge-whether-the-element-exists

However, in a repeated set of runs, sometimes line 175 below fails with the traceback below. Sometimes this exception occurs
in run 10, sometimes in run 6 etc.

         The traceback :

The traceback seems to say that FindByAutomationId fails because dvGrid is not visible, right in the Find itself, so the check
for dvGrid==null is too late, ocassionally.

Any ideas why this is so?

Clicking an element inside of an iFrame

Hello!

Trying to click on a list object inside of an iFrame. No errors are thrown but the click action never seems to occur!

ArtOfTest.WebAii.Core.Browser iFrame = man.ActiveBrowser.Frames[0];

Element listBox = iFrame.Find.ById("ListBox1");
Element bradtest = TelerikHelper.FindNestedElementByLoc(listBox, ("1"));

iFrame.Actions.Click(bradtest);

Does this look correct? TelerikHelper.findNestedElement is a helper function I wrote. It simply finds children elements and is proven to work. I checked to make sure "bradtest" is the correct element I'm attempting to click and it is.

Desktop and WPF app problem

I started to use Testing Framework, and my console application runs just fine, but any other desktop or WPF have similar results:
Chrome and Firefoks stucks at "Preparing browser for automation..." message, InternetExplorer throws window saying something similar to
"Cant find module ArtOfTest.Connector.dll" and timeout later.
I am using Visual Studio 2013 run as administrator, Windows Server 2012 and reinstalled fresh version of Test Framework.

WindowClosed event handler not firing

Hi,

Environment
- TTF: 2014.3
- Visual Studio 2012

I am finding that I am not seeing the WindowClosed event handler getting called.
I even set things up so that I manually open and close the window; the event handler
does not seem to be fired.

I'm assuming that TTF does not require any special work to be done by the Wpf client
in order to see the event, right?

Hopefully, someone has some ideas and suggestions.

Thanks in advance,

Below is a sample code :

public class TestClass {

private bool _winClosed;

private void WindowClosedEventHandler(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

_winClosed = true;

}

public void CloseWindow()

{

var win = wpfClient.WaitForWindow("Header of Window", _settings.ExecuteCommandTimeout);

win.WindowClosed += WindowClosedEventHandler; // subscribe to event

_winClosed = false;

win.Window.SetFocus();

while(!_winClosed) // wait for event handler to set _winClosed to true

{

Logger.Debug("Waiting for win to close");

Pause(500);

}

win.WindowClosed -= WindowClosedEventHandler; // unsubscribe to event

}

...

}

In-memory browser?

It appears that the testing framework is automating a browser that is installed on the system. For example, if I try to launch a Chrome browser, but Chrome is not installed, I get an error.

Is there an in-memory browser of any kind? I don't care if it's IE, Chrome, FireFox, or something else. I don't want to rely on a "properly" configured browser installed on the machine in order for things to work. I am also concerned about cookie sharing among concurrent browser windows (the default for IE 8 & 9).

I am aware that these issues can be addressed using specific browser configurations and registry hacks, but again, I don't really want to have to rely on browser configuration settings for things to work properly.

I'm looking for something akin to what HtmlUnit provides for the Java community, but I absolutely love the Test Studio interface for creating tests.

Thanks!
Scott

Clearing Cache

HI,

I am currently writing a test case to open the browser and select a database in the application. When I run the test first time it put the vale in the textboxes and then select the database.

But runnig the test second time the value selected in previous run is there and my test fails. Is there a way where the test is run every time from the start irrespective what has been run previously. I guess there should be some way to cleanup the test which is ran previosly.

Thanks
Amar

HtmlControls - HtmlInput <input type=tel>

Is there any current support for Html Input Type "tel"? In terms of accessing and invoking javascript on an element of type HtmlInputTel which Control should I attempt to use, or will 'InputTel's be not accessible?   Example of Html Code below:

<div id="rowPhone" class="formRow" style="">
    <label class="inlineBlock inputLabel" for="myAccount_phone">Primary Phone:(/label>
    <input id="myAccount_phone" class="inlineBlock error" type="tel" aria-describedby="errorContainer_phone" data-bind="value: Phone" name="phone" aria-invalid="true">
    <div id="ui-id-24" class="error fieldErrorContainer" aria-atomic="true" role="alert" style="width: 140px; text-align: left; position: relative; top: 0px; left: 103.85px; height: auto;"></div>

Is this something that is in the works for future Telerik development? Thanks
