Hi

I need to test a desktop windows based application which is developed using .net 4.0, Telerik RadControls for WinForms 2010 Q3, Infragistics Controls for Winforms. I need to perform regression tests for this application.

Issues:

1. I work on one domain say X but my applications works on another domain say Y so what I do to run my application on X domain I use run as and give the Y domain's credential and open my application test. My problem here, to record actions in TestStudio I need to give the .exe path and perform some actions. Actually to run my application I have to give Y domain's credentials using run as but when run the actions it tries to open the applcaition directly. Here it fails to open the application itself.

2. To avoid above problem, I tried to work from Y domain itself but here one more problem. 

        Here there are sequnce of actions:
                i. Open the application
                ii. Click on tree node to open folder which is much similar to Windows Explorer (I think this is developed using Infragistics Controls)
                iii. Open a Time series chart from that folder (Which is developed using RadControls)

After stoping the recording and run the actions, here I have one real problem. It just opens the application but doen't perform any other actions.

Please give some solutions to resolve these issues,

Thanks,
Sri

Hi,
I can run my test list by command line, set the output directory for the results ("out") but I can't get the "mail" option to work. Do I have to set something up  somewhere?

Here's an example of my command line :

"D:\Program Files\Telerik\Test Studio 2011.2\Bin\ArtOfTest.Runner.exe" list="***:\****\TestsAutomatises_Migration\Verif_Mig_UNIT\TestLists\Unit.aiilist" out="D:\Documents and Settings\st\Desktop\Results" serverPublish="false" notifyOption="1" mails="results@dsf.ca"

Hi,

I submit a test list to scheduling server, and get following exception:

----------------------------------------------------

Indeed mentioned .dll is there in the right path and scheduling was worked before. After getting this exception, whenever I submit a new test list to scheduling server, it gives following error in scheduling logs:
----------------------------------------
Machine is busy executing other tests!
----------------------------------------

Unless I reboot the server, I get the above message and after rebooting the server, I get first exception and then above message again afterwards.

Do you have any idea what could be the reason of not finding .dll in that path although it is there.

Thanks

Hi folks,

How would I create a dialog box in the VB Code Behind window, read what a real user enters into a text field in the box, and use the value in a Test Studio script?

The scenario is that when a user presses a 'Forgot My Password' button they receive a temporary password by email.  I need to generate a dialog box into which the user will be able to type their temporary password, which my script can grab and then act on.  If there is a video that shows this, please point me to it.

Thanks in advance,

Hello,

I am having issues running my test cases using the quick execution against Firefox 10 (had 9 installed but just upgraded to 10) and Safari 5.1; they run just fine against IE7 and Chrome (17.0.963).

In both cases, the browsers display a message “Preparing browser for automation…”  and then it errors out.   Also, I have followed the configurations instructions for both browsers and verified extensions are enabled.

I am using Telerik Test Studio Version 2011.2.14.13.0 on a Windows XP, Professional SP3 system.

Please find screenshots attached.

Hello,
We have been using the test framework in Chrome for a while now but when Chrome upgraded itself we needed the latest version of the extensions in order for our test suite to work.  However, in that we lost something... Hard to say what...

what happens is when we do a find.byhtmlexpression then successive calls are not made and this exception is thrown:
if we switch browser type then the functions work, but we are required to test in chrome.  Seems to be something with refresh dom tree

ExecuteCommand failed!, BrowserCommand (Type:'Information',Info:'DocumentMarkup',Action:'NotSet',Target:'null',Data:'',ClientId:'be91a0a0-4a32-4290-981f-e3f553197f0e',HasFrames:'False',FramesInfo:'',TargetFrameIndex:'-1',InError:'False',Response:''), InnerException: System.TimeoutException: Timed out waiting for command to be handled,  at ArtOfTest.WebAii.Messaging.Process.BrowserHttpRemoted.ProcessBrowserRequest(BrowserCommand command, String requestId, Int32 timeout),  at ArtOfTest.WebAii.Messaging.Process.BrowserHttpRemoted.ProcessBrowserRequest(BrowserCommand command, String requestId),  at ArtOfTest.WebAii.Core.Browser.ExecuteCommandInternal(BrowserCommand request)

Hello,

I used your tool found in this thread to convert my project from VB to C#.  When attempting to execute, I receive the error "The type or namespace name 'Pages' could not be found."  Is this easily solved by including an assembly reference?  I attempted to find the "System.Windows.Forms" assembly but I do not have the Profile/Client subfolders that are indicated further down in the thread.  

Thanks!

We conduct server maintenance on Wednesday nights (applying Windows updates etc.) and I run a series of tests (some as Test Lists and some not) to verify everything is back up. 

For several week now, I have encountered a strange thing happening with my Test Studio.  I try to kick off my test lists and they merely open one blank browser page after another.  When this situation occurs, I cannot run a single test alone (just get a blank page) and I cannot create a new test (click actions won't record).  Closing and reopening Test Studio does nothing to remedy the situation.

I have found that the only way to fix it is completely close everything down and reboot my machine.  Once back up the tests run normally.  Rebooting is very inconvenient especially if I'm remote.

Anyone have an idea of what is causing this and a fix?  I cannot seem to make it do it, it just this on occasion (about 6 or 7 times in as many weeks).

I have installed test studio and recorded opening a browser and navigate dating to google.com.  
It when rnning the test it runs fine when i use Firefox but in IE9 it sets about:blank in the link and of course fails.  The log Contains the error that follows.  

How does one correct this error?

Thanks
