Hi,
I am a newbie to Test Studio. I am hitting a button on Window1 that opens up a new Window2. The URL for window2 is different everytime so the test case fails as it is trying to navigate to the already recorded URL. 
I am using record and play. Kindly help.

P.S:
The initial part of the URL always remains the same except the last 4 alphanumeric digits. Appologez if I am giving less info.

I have many tests in which I have to login to our platform.  Due to passwords changing I created a Test as a Step for the username and password steps which I reuse in all tests when I need to login.  The theory was I could then just update the password in the test as a step and it would matriculate to all other tests.  Individually it did so but our Scheduled Test Lists did not pick up the change and thus failed.  

This seems similar to the earlier issue of test list not getting update with just modifying a test case it just a variation of the same.  I am already running the 2013.2.1524 internal build to get around other issues.  Do I need to just redo my test list to get the changes to take hold?  

Hi There,

For image comparison, I saw a piece of code here:

System.Drawing.Bitmap expectedbmp = new System.Drawing.Bitmap("myExpected.png");
 
HtmlImage img = Find.ById<HtmlImage>("myImageId");
System.Drawing.Bitmap actualbmp = img.Capture();
 
ArtOfTest.Common.PixelMap expected = ArtOfTest.Common.PixelMap.FromBitmap(expectedbmp);
ArtOfTest.Common.PixelMap actual = ArtOfTest.Common.PixelMap.FromBitmap(actualbmp);

Assert.IsTrue(expected.Compare(actual, 5.0));

My questions are :
1. How to import the System.Drawing.Bitmap to Telerik? (Also other files)
2. Where is the path for "myExpected.png", should I use "C:\myExpected.png" or just put under the project folder using "myExpected.png"

Thanks
Waylon

I am evaluating the trial version, and I am unable to run a capture from my current version of firefox.  I have all the Telerik add-ons enabled and all other add-ons disabled.  Each time I run a capture, it comes back with 0 results.

Ideas?

Thanks
Steve

Hi,

I have upgraded from 2012.2.1420 to 2014.1.410 and encountered the following error message:

Once I started looking at all of the tests that failed during the upgrade I found the common recorded step that was causing the issue:
radtreelistview(EncNavigationTreeRadtreelistview): root item count 'Equal' '0'.

***I am wondering if this is a bug or if this item is no longer valid and the upgrade is supposed to fail with the above message.

Hi,
we have some test lists which have been scheduled to run on a remote execution server. I would like to remove these from the scheduler however the project that originally created the test lists has since been deleted. Is there a way to remove these 'phantom' scheduled tests ?

Thanks Tom.

Assume I have 5 licences for Test Studio (100 users for each). I need execute tests for 500 users. Assumption is that I use the 5 machines (100 users on each). It can be done manually by execute test for 100 users on the each computer. But if I want manage test from one station, can I use the users from other licences, or I have to by additional VU for specific license? Additional I have to buy four Runtime licences if I want to execute test from one machine (on the other four machines, test will be called)?

I have add CSV Data source and Bound it to the Test. But when I edit the user profile and select the HTTP Get request I don't see anything would allow me to change  the URL http://services2.somedomain.dev/crmwebservice/cities/1 to something like http://services2.somedomain.dev/crmwebservice/cities/$Data. The documentation covers 2012 versions. Also note I have the trial version and I hope you haven't crippled it.
 

Hi
   I generated some script for our application where i selected some sub menus.but once playing it shows the following error that the item is hidden.


Failure Information:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is there any other  way we can record such  hidden item with  telerik

Thanks

Hi,

We're trying to share tests across a team and are finding that image verification is failing on some steps.

In some cases, we have to use image verification as we're testing a silverlight charting application with custom controls and cannot verify the data any other way. Any changes to the resolution of the browser window directly affects the display of these controls.

Thus, we need a way to set the browser window size/resolution consistently across our tests.

We could use ActiveBrowser.Window.Maximize();however, our screen sizes differ (laptops, 2nd monitors etc.).

What we need is something like ActiveBrowser.Window.SetResolution(1024,768), does something like that exist?

Thanks,
Paul.
