I'm a new user to Test Studio and looking to see of there is sample code, video or documentation on how to handle get and post requests to the server. I recorded a script where you fill in text into fields then the users clicks submit. The next page is a verification page to verify the information before submitting to the website. After hitting submit on that screen, the server doesn't get the information and the script fails.

Losing later versions of test script

This has happened three times now so I don't think it is just me :) ... WIthin the same project, I will copy and paste a test script and then rename the new version. I open the new version, delete a majority of the test steps and save (call this my "initial version" of the new test script). I then edit the new version extensively, saving several times intermittently, and run a number of times in a test list, both locally and remotely. All good so far. I close TestStudio, do a reboot of my machine and then re-open TestStudio. The test script now matches the "initial version" with all subsequent changes missing. Any idea what is going on?

Your help will be most appreciated! Thanks.

XPath and HTMLPath properties of an element

I am trying to define xpath as one of the find settings for an element in the element repository. I am replacing the automatically generated xpath with an xpath that works in the coded step using Find.ByXPath, but the identification fails after the auto generated xpath is replaced.

I would also like to know the difference between xpath and html path.

Default xpath generated: /article[1]/fieldset[1]/ol[1]/li[11]/span[2]/input[2]

Changed xpath: /ol/li[contains(span,'Speech conditions')]/span/input[@value='No'] (I have also tried adding the '@' escape character for the "," and "@" symbols in the xpath)

The following is the html of the page

Cannot select item in combox by its text value

Hi,

I have a combobox where I am trying to select an item by text, but it seems that I am not able to do so.

I have tried to use the following method

Find the combobox by automationId (which works): combo = app.MainWindow.Find.
ByAutomationId<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.Wpf.ComboBox>(comboBoxAutoId);

Use itemByText to select the item (which doesn´t work): combo.SelectItemByText(true, itemToSelect);

When I use combobox.selectItemByText("Text") I get a null reference exception.

The whole method:

public void selectItemFromComboBox(WpfApplication app, string comboBoxAutoId, string itemToSelect)

{

ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.Wpf.ComboBox combo;

Thread.Sleep(350);

app.MainWindow.RefreshVisualTrees();

combo = app.MainWindow.Find.

ByAutomationId<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.Wpf.ComboBox>(comboBoxAutoId);

combo.OpenDropDown(true);

FrameworkElement indicator;

for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++)

{

app.MainWindow.RefreshVisualTrees();

Thread.Sleep(350);

indicator = app.MainWindow.Find.ByTextContent(itemToSelect);

if (indicator != null)

{

for (int j = 0; j < 50; j++)

{

Thread.Sleep(1000);

app.MainWindow.RefreshVisualTrees();

combo.Refresh();

combo.SelectItemByText(true, itemToSelect);

Debug.WriteLine("AAAAAA");

Thread.Sleep(500);

if (combo.Text.Equals(itemToSelect))

{

Thread.Sleep(350);

break;

}

Please note that I am using a framework element to ensure that the item is visible/not null.

The xaml of the combobox:

<ComboBox x:Name="cmbAttributeType"

Grid.Row="0"

Grid.Column="1"

materialDesign:HintAssist.Hint="Select Type"

Style="{StaticResource MaterialDesignFloatingHintComboBox}"

ItemsSource="{Binding Path=AttributeTypesAvailable, ElementName=LevelAttributes}"

SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SelectedAttributeType, ElementName=LevelAttributes}"

IsEditable="True"

IsReadOnly="True"

Margin="3,0,0,0"

AutomationProperties.AutomationId="Level_Att_Type_ComboBox"/>

I tried doing this with a Framework element (opening the combobox and then clicking on the FWE), but every time I click on the FWE the comboboxlist closes and the comboboxitem is not selected. This is the same for clicking on a combobox item from an Ilist of the combobox.

Any help on this would be great.

Many thanks in advance,

David

Internet Explorer Closing Problem

Hello

Our application raises two pop ups upon close action

First is a save changes confirmation which test studio can handle but after that an internet explorer dialog raises and asks are you sure you want to leave this page in a windows dialog.

I cant manage to handle this problem and it makes internet explorers stack and blocks our test list executions

I am open to every work around if you guys have an idea :)

Thanks in Advance

Get Project Path in static class/function

Hi,

I need the Project Path to create log files in respective folder. I am able to get the Project Path in non-static class/functions using "this.ExecutionContext.DeploymentDirectory;". However; when I try same in static classes/functions it gives error like "Keyword 'this' is not valid in a static property, static method, or static field initializer" which is valid as we cannot do that.

Is there any other way I can use get DeploymentDirectory in static class/function?

Thanks,

Window resizes when dragging item

Hi,

We have an issue where when you drag an item in internet explore to another area in the same window the window is automatically resizing to a smaller size.

We have set the window to open at 1280x1024 when the test runs and would like it to remain this size for the duration of the test.

Is there a way we could prevent the window from resizing automatically as this is causing our tests to fail as the target area is no longer on screen when the window resizes.

This is using Silverlight.

Thanks in advance for your help
