Hello,

In several instances, I have needed to enter DateTime.Now.ToString() into a textbox, so I would initially record step to "enter text 'alan' into txtComment" and then customize that step in code.  I use to have success in this, but within the past few months, I have not.  I have even tried converting the step without modifying anything and I receive the same error.  Below is what I have tried so far.  We are using version 2012.2.1420.


As stated above, when simply converting the step to code, the test fails:


I know this is very simple to do, so I must be overlooking something.

Thanks,
Alan

I had an older version when i started encountering this error. I then upgraded to the latest version of Test Studio and tried executing it. It  ran fine the first time and then started to throw the same error. I am not sure why i am getting this error. Can you please help me out here?

Below is the error details.

Thank you,
Nithin

...90% of the time my tests are just superficial "does a page work", or "this url should not work"

Browse to page, make sure there's no YSOD, done.  However the actual test has to be some "hacky" thing like looking for an element which wouldnt exist on a YSOD page.

Could we add a new test step that just "automatically" looks for a crash page...So like in my test project I could give TS my error page Urls, and then I would add this new step in to say

- Browse to Page
- Check for 500
or
- Check for 404
or
- Check for Error

Then internally that magic test step would determine if the resulting url is one of my error pages and\or a YSOD.  This would also let me fire up a series of PURPOSELY bad urls to throw at it to hope they 404 or 500.

Hi,

I have following scenario to test:
1. Register as user to website.
2. Verification mail is sent to user's mail id, having a link to confirm user account.
3. Login to admin portal and open item created by action#1.
4. Mail which was sent in step#2 is attached.
5. Open attachment and copy link given in mail and paste it in new browser.

Is it possible? I was able to proceed till step 4 but copy link didn't worked.

Thanks,
Amit

Hi,

I am trying to connect to Oracle database using Test studio to verify values are being persisted properly. I tried writing code using Oracle client but I am getting following error:

'System.Data.OracleClient.OracleConnection' is obsolete: 'OracleConnection has been deprecated. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=144260'

Also, tried with OleDB connection, but getting OleDB.Oracle not registered on local machine error. Please let me know if any solution is available for the same.

Thanks,

I have read other postings that Flash is not really supported in Test Studio... at least a couple of years ago. Others have proposed ideas on how to do blink clicks, etc.I know I can't use image verification,

However, as a performance monitoring tool, we want to time the loading of pages. The page has a Flash header on it and the time that it takes to load and starts to play is to be considered part of the loading time.

Any ideas?

Hi team,
when i use ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo(url) method to open a page, it seems that the browser will wait until the page is totally loaded, that means if there is an image or an icon is not completely loaded, the browser will wait. so my question is how can we let it go to next step without keeping waiting once the link that i need is loaded?

This may be a "stupid question", but after viewing and/or dismissing the Step Failure Details log after a Quick Execution run, where can I go to re-open it so I can double-check something?

Apparently, only Test List results are listed on the Results tab, and I can't seem to find where Quick Execution test results are stored, if they are at all.

Are Quick Execution test results transient and not kept anywhere...even if another quick execution has not yet been run?
Is the only way to be able to go back to a test result is to run the script in a list and not use Quick Execution?

Thank you for your time.

Hi All,

I have been using telerik WebAii framework with great success in the past few years when running UI automation. I am using the SDK directly (writing code) and I am not using the Test Studio UI to run my test.
Test execution is happing via Visual Studio MSTest tool.

I recently change my entire code to use .Net 4.5 instead of 3.5. Everything was working smoothly until I tried to run my UI automation. Most of the UI cases run with no issue until I hit a set of case that utilize 4.5 code. The test case outcome will succeed but it will put WebAii (or the machine) in some kind of odd state. All subsequent cases, regardless of their complexity will fail run trying to launch the browser
    this.Manager.LaunchNewBrowser()
The API will timeout with little indication on the failure.

I am not able to repro the issue on my local machine but this repro 100% in a lab environment. My local machine has IIS, SQL, Azure SDK, .Net 3.0, .Net 4.5, and many other component/software install while the lab machine has very little.
I am running Windows 8 locally and the lab is running Windows Server 2012.

Not using .Net 4.5 feature in the scenario I am trying to test is not an option so I need to find out what is causing the error.

Has anyone experienced similar issues with WebAii and .Net 4.5? If so, is there any work around?
Will a 4.5 version of WebAii be available anytime soon?

Thanks.

David.
