Hi,

I recently downloaded and installed the QA edition of WebUI Test studio.

When launching WebUI test studio I get an error: "Error initializing recorder: Could not load type 'System.Security.Authentication.ExtendedProtection.ExtendedProtectionPolicy' from assembly 'System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'. Recording will not fuction.

I click OK in this errordialog.

When I then try to activate my trial I am declined and it says I need to contact sales@...

When logging into my account at telerik.com it clearly states that I have a trial license that expires september 10.

Any ideas?

I have an existing project created using the Q1 version. All project elements were added to a Silverlight instance named "SilverlightApp".
I then updated my version of the tool using the 2010.2.727 Q2 release. After this install, all new project elements were added to a new Silverlight instance named "SilverlightApp_0". I am still testing the same Silverlight application, but then I thought  this change was inevitable because of the new tool version so I Iet it go as it is, it works anyway.
However, after several days of using the new release, something weird happened. The tool switched the SilverlightApp instances: SilverlightApp -> SilverlightApp_0; SilverlightApp_0 -> SilverlightApp. I have a lot of existing coded steps using the original instance, also have created a lot of coded steps using the new instance, resulting to hundreds (or thousand) compile error messages. What I did was edit the "Friendly Name" property of both elements in the Property box, and then saved. This worked. However, whenever I reopen the same project, they switch back again. Is there a way how to make this automatic renaming not happen?

Hi.
I am evaluating WebUI QA for our company.  We intend on using the tool to validate that our websites, and web apps, work with a variety of browsers and versions.  However, I am unsure how to go about testing this.  I see that i can test IE, Firefox and Safari and it launches whatever version is loaded on the PC, but how do I test with multiple browser versions?

I need to test IE6, IE7, IE8, along with various browser versions of Firefox.  Do I have to have seperate PCs setup for each browser version (since I do not believe you can have IE6, IE7 and IE8 on the same pc)?  How will this impact licensing of the webUI tool, since I assume I will need to install it on each of those test pcs.

This is only my 2nd day evaluating this tool, so I am very new to this (but am experienced with other automated tools.  We currently use SILK for our Client Server type apps, but found it does not work well with all our web apps, requires a lot of manual programming.).  Your help will be appreciated.

Hello,

I have noticed during my evaluation of both QA and Developer Editions that I was unable to get the mouse wheel event to be recognized as a step.  This important for us since we use maps and charts.  Is there a work around or a fix on the way?

Thank you

Hello,

I have an error while executing my test in FireFox:

ExecuteCommand failed!
InError set by the client. Client Error:
mozCommandProcessor: FindElement(): Tag collection is either empty or has less elements than the element occurrence requested.TagName: , Occurrence Requested: -1, All Tags Collection length: 0
BrowserCommand (Type:'Information',Info:'FrameRectangle',Action:'NotSet',Target:'null',Data:'3',ClientId:'Client_4a4fdaef-16a2-48c9-bc63-51062886594d',HasFrames:'False',FramesInfo:'',TargetFrameIndex:'-1',InError:'True',Response:'mozCommandProcessor: FindElement(): Tag collection is either empty or has less elements than the element occurrence requested.TagName: , Occurrence Requested: -1, All Tags Collection length: 0')
InnerException: none.

The error occurs on pressing several buttons. E.g.:

<input type="submit" id="btnNext" onclick="javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions(&quot;btnNext&quot;, &quot;&quot;, true, &quot;&quot;, &quot;UnitConfiguration.aspx&quot;, false, false))" value="Next" name="btnNext">

Test step:
Desktop command: Left click on btnNext

I tried to use "Click btnNext" command, but I got the same error

Please, note that in IE7 all works fine.

How can I fix this problem?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have a question about 'Test as Step' function of WebUI Test Studio.
For example, I have a test list which includes 10 different tests. And each test begins from logging into the web-site.
I can record logging actions (navigate to url, entering login/password and pressing a button) and save them as a separate test, for example, 'Login_User', that can be inserted into each test by using 'Test as Step' function.
But what if I need to use different login/password in each test? So is there any possibility to pass arguments (login and password) to the test 'Login_User'?

Why we need to use the browser lauched by WebUI to record and execute test ???

- What is the technical reason for this limitation??
- Why not recording on any opened IE window??
- Is this instance really represents the real IE window of the end user (our client) since a particular setup/config is needed on IE window??
- The recorder seems to be a BHO/Plugin on top of the browser (wich is enabled in any windows).  What the WebAI instance is different from the other IE instances???

My boss and I are really intrigued by the "Browser instance" imposition to automate our silverlight application.

Thanks - Mike

Hi Guys,

I am trying to add today's date into the FilterExpression for the news item control. is there any parameter that does that?
My problem is that I have two news item lists and a news archive control on the same page, I want the newsarchive controls only one of the news lists and need the other one to show the latest news, whilst for now it is effecting both when someone clicks on the newsarchive.

Many Thanks
