I have multiple tests that all pass successfully when run on Tests and Test Lists tabs within the test studio application, but when set to run at a specific time on the scheduler, they fail at some point in the middle of the test.

Conditions are otherwise the same (I have a windows process set up to make sure that they're even connected to the same router). 

 

Here's an example log from one of the failed tests. These same failed steps pass when I run the test myself without the scheduler. I'm stumped. Anyone run into this or have suggestions on fixing it?

Hi,

 

The issue I currently have is a little tricky to explain, so feel free to ask for clarification :)

I’m running wpf. tests on an in-house application. Our application uses integrated logins, so usually when I do standard workflows, I let the app login automatically with my personal credentials. However, at times I need to log in as a different user. In daily use we do this by holding down F2 to break the integration and allow manual login.

Previously I could accomplish this during testing by a small coded step with a keyboard.keyUp/Down event. However, this only worked because of an old inherent error in the test application that would cause the initialisation of the application to be halted until a dialogue was accepted, allowing us to insert the keyboard event before full app boot up.

And now we get to the issue at hand: Since I updated to current version of Test Studio and Runtime, that particular error message caused TS to lose focus on start-up and the tests failed because of this. The developers then fixed the error, so the message would not appear and the tests would run alright. BUT, without the error message dialogue, the initialisation of the application is not paused by anything, and the keypress event doesn’t happen at the critical point. Thus, I never get the login box and am not able to proceed with these particular tests.

So, based on this, can you think of a way to introduce the F2 key event at the moment of initialisation? Or alternatively, is there a way to pass arguments to execute the application so we can program a different start-up behaviour depending on the test?

 

Thank you,

Jakob

When using the quick steps menu, the only option for verifying the RadGridView row count is choosing Equal to the current row count. When creating this step in the previous version, I was able to modify the step to 'GreaterThan' after adding it. Since upgrading to 2016.2 the Comparison type input is grayed out. I also tried changing the RunsAgainstVersionCompare dropdown but it doesn't seem to do anything.

The situation seems to occur a few minutes after I open a test from Test Studio. 

When a page has a fixed header, the click element step does not work. The browser scrolls the element to the top of the viewport, behind the fixed header, and the mouse click occurs on an element in the fixed header. I have attached a sample test for a public site with a fixed header.

Hi,

Since starting to work with the Runtime licence, I've had a bit of strange issue. The first test list to run, whether it's a single test or a long list always fails. 0 steps will be run.

The second time I run (same test or any other), the remote test will initialise. This is a bit of an annoyance, to always have to run dummy test to 'wake up' the system.

Running from a desktop to a virtual machine with the runtime installed.

 

Any idea what might be causing it?

Hello, 

I have one simple question: will be there support for Windows Store apps in the near future for automated UI testing?

András

Greetings,

I need to test a page for a free sample. However, each email address can only be used once.

How can I generate random email addresses to run this test?  I saw another article related to this, but the links in the article were broken.

Thanks

Wade

Hi There,

IE 11 on windows 10 non-responsive when recording nor when testing. I arrive at the point after I select IE to create the test on, at which point the browser pops up but is blank, as illustrated in the attached image. 

I've also tried recording in a browser that was already open without success. It doesn't get past the connected phase. Capture 2 illustrates the problem. 

I've followed the troubleshooting documentation (link below)without success.

http://docs.telerik.com/teststudio/getting-started/configure-your-browser/internet-explorer#disable-trusted-sites-message

Any ideas on how I might get around this one? I thought perhaps reinstalling the add-on might help as this has been a sucessful solution to Firefox troubleshooting. Only, I'm not sure where the add-on of IE is located or where I can download it. 

Thanks,

Leila

Hi,

How can I use the Dialog Handling of the Test Studio to automatically execute itself when it detects an confirmation pop-up dialog? We don't know if the dialog box will show or not.

Thanks
