How to turn on the 'Prompt for element name before adding’

Hi,

I'm trying to turn on the 'Prompt for element name before adding’ option "in the General tab of Project Settings".
But I'm not able to find where it is.
Nor can I find it in the online help.

Please help.
Thanks

Hello,

I'm trying to get info when test list fails on some test.
Email is send to configured account but email is not readable. It look like it's formated badly and email client can't handle this.
Below example what kind of message I get (using :Telerik Test Studio version 2011.2.928.0 with licence)

Any idea why ??
----------------------------------------------
<SOLVED>

I found a workaround solution for this, another email accounts (send and recive account) on the other host seem to have no problem with sending and reciving messages. Everything is visible fine.
Strange.. but I can use it too so no problem anymore.

To Wait

Hi,

I'm trying telerik for the first time, and need to know the trick to wait.

I was trying to wait for an element to exist but it failed on me, because the WaitOnElementsTimeout somehow is fixed to 10000, is it 10 seconds or 10000
seconds? I need to wait for at least 5 of 8 minutes. This is too short and I can't even change it myself.

Please help.

Thanks

XLSM files

Hi folks,

Is there a restriction on the use of Excel .xlsm files as data sources? Test Studio reports that my BaseData.xlsm, created with Office 2010, file is "...not a valid 'Excel' source file".

Thanks,

Build Verification Error?

Hi all,

I think I have found a logic issue with content validation, but it maybe that I'm just not understanding something, or not applying the test correctly. Would somebody clarify this for me, please?
I have a field called 'roleCreatedOn' that contains a plain text date-time. The HTML is:

19/03/2012 11:29:54

</td>

I want a test that checks that the field is not empty, so I set the Build Verification as:
Content Verify TextContent NotContain (empty)
But when I then check that the validation is correct, Test Studio displays this:

Content.TextContent of elementdoes not match!

   Match Type: 'NotContain'
   Expected Result: ''
   Value at time of failure: '19/03/2012 11:29:54'

Parameters:
-----------
TagSegmentType = 'TextContent'
CompareType = 'NotContain'
ExpectedString = Expected:[] , Actual:[19/03/2012 11:29:54]

Since the field is not empty, surely the test value returned should be true? Why does Test Studio think the Expected Result should be ''?
Am I testing for an empty or null field correctly?

Thanks,
Nigel Edwards, Transition Computing.

Test Failure System.ArgumentException

Ran into this message on an automated test I ran today using FireFox. Looks like it failed at the start of execution. Any insights as to the cause? The other odd thing is that while I was watching the screen during execution, opening and closing browser windows during navigation test steps, one of the FireFox windows appeared completely blank/white with the text "Preparing the browser for automation". From this point on, each subsequent browser window opened in FireFox looked the same and none of them closed -- they simply stacked up one after another. ???

Continue on failure setting

In my test run today, when my test step failed, I found this in the test log entry.

'3/15/2012 4:21:27 PM' - Detected a failure. Step is marked 'ContinueOnFailure=False' aborting test execution.

I looked in the settings at the Test Step, Test, Project, and Test List levels but I don't know where this setting is configured. I simply want my test list to continue running through the remaining steps if this one (or similar) fails. At this point in the test, I'm simply validating URL links to external websites and then navigating back to our page. It appears that the external page simply didn't finish loading within the specified time.

Thanks,

Richard
