Hi,

I am evaluating WebUI Test Studio and currently have recorded one scenarion, now I want to do some minor modifications into steps using few more controls and for that I have idea about how to create element for WebUI but I am unable to find the facility to add new element.

I think it is very much required for maintanance and it will be easier to modify some element locators manually instead or re-record etc.

So please guide me that how can I add my own element in elements list and same way my own page is same hierarcy?

Thanks,

I understand the 'Results' folder is created at the project root when I create a new project.  We have business needs to gather the test results from the entire test team, so we can generate the metrix report directly from the results folder on a shared drive.

Question #1: Is there anyway I can configure the settings so that the 'Results' folder is located on a shared drive? If so, then we can ask the entire test team to configure their results folder to the same one on the shared location

Question #2: Is it a good practice to create a project on the shared drive? I am thinking, if the answer to my #1 question is NO, then we can create a dummy project on the shared drive and have everyone copy their own test results to the 'Results' folder for that project. If we need to generate metrix report, just open this dummy project on the shared.

Thanks,

We recently presented Test Studio to the QA team as a solution for automated testing on a Silverlight application.  One of the concerns from the QA team was that the play back was slow. With slow automation their tests would take a long time to complete.  Is there a way to make the automation play back faster?

Hi Telerik Team,

I am running Telerik to test Web application. I recorded scenario which includes sub-menu click by using Telerik Mouse Actions: 'Mouse Hover' and 'Left Click'. But when executed the scenario, it finishes the test without executing this part. Or I could say same functionality not working on Telerik by this way.
So please let me know the steps to record and execute the menu/sub-menu options, as well as the check boxes in application.

Is it possible to force Test Studio to bind to an instance of Internet Explorer?

My problem in a nutshell is:

1. Use Run > To Here
2. A second window opens during this run
3. Test Studio faithfully binds to the first window, but not the second
(Making it impossible to continue where I left off on my recording...)

Thanks for your time!

Hi there,

Some questions:
1. Does your software Test Studio support websites in Hebrew?
2. Can test results be exported to Excel?

Tnx,
Shanit.

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to force thread identity for a test list. I'm currently working on an intranet site and I have to test different user profiles on one of our dev servers. The thing is that we don't do "login"; the site takes the logged in identity. For manual testing and verification, we've developed a script that forces the desired identity (all browser windows must be closed for it to work), THEN opens a browser window and opens the site . But with test studio, the browser opens as soon as you want to record a test.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

I have an automated test that runs against a Silverlight application.  At some points I connect to the database to verify that the data persisted correctly.  In these cases, I write code in a test step to connect to the database.  I use a hard coded connection string in my coded step.  The only problem is that my Silverlight application may be using different databases depending on the environment.  (i.e.  QA, Dev, Production)  I do not want to change my connection string (in every coded step) every time I go against a different database.  Is there a better way to easily change my connection string when I am running my automated test? Maybe there is a global setting or configuration file that I may use to put these values.  What is the best way to handle this situation?  Please let me know.

Test Studio: 2012.1.518.0
Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter Service Pack 1
Internet Explorer: 9.0.8112.16421
Firefox: 12.0
Safari: 5.1.7 (7534.57.2)
Chrome: 19.0.1084.52

I've been debugging a failing test against our internal CMS where a step couldn't connect to a modal pop-up dialog. In the end I stripped the test right down and eventually tested a public facing website.

My test contains 4 steps:
- Navigate to http://www.codestore.net/store.nsf/unid/DOMM-4R5MDQ
- Click 'ThisLinkLink'
- Connect to modal pop-up window : A Modal Pop-Up -- Webpage Dialog
- Close modal pop-up window : A Modal Pop-up -- Webpage Dialog

I'm testing each browser individually using Quick Execution.

Both Firefox and Safari fail on step 3 and the test stops, even if I set the PopupWaitTimeout property to 60 secs.

If possible I'd like a solution which doesn't involve writing code because non-developers will be writing most of our tests.

Cheers,
Steve

I just upgraded to the latest build this morning and I am running into an issue compiling a project on my remote execution box,  I am seeing the following error in the log:

4658

Information

The TestList run prepartion failed and execution cannot continue! Error message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. StackTrace: at ArtOfTest.WebAii.Design.ProjectModel.Test.NeedToCompile() at Telerik.TestStudio.Scheduling.WindowsService.ExecutionEngineRunner.ExecuteList(TestList list, Project project, Settings settings, String binaryFolder, String projectPath, String resultName) at Telerik.TestStudio.Scheduling.WindowsService.ExecutionEngineRunner.StartRun(Object runArg)

I was able to execute projects fine prior to upgrading this morning.  I have not changed any settings or configuration other than what may have been done by the installer.
