unable to validate a textbox?

[Neeraj]

I am trying to do some validations on a simple asp:textbox. I am unable to even save a 'Build Verification' for exact match on the text box value. Why is it? Is asp:textbox not supported by telerik QA Studio?

Please find the attached gif file with the error message.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Neeraj,

 There is an error with our control descriptor for text box. We will try to fix the problem for the next SP release.
Mean while you can verify against the Value attribute:
1. Click the Attributes button in the "Build Verification" screen
2. Then select the 'Value' attribute

Thank for your time.

Sincerely yours,
Nikolai

OK Thanks - that worked. Now I am having bigger issues.

I am getting the below error most of the times  -  I am unable to run any of the recorded scripts.

I was running some tests on WebUI QA Studio and I was getting the below error (operation timeout). Now I am using Developer edition , in VS 2008, I have recorded three tests (.aii) - two of them I have modularized. Again I get the same error as below , I cannot run this test. How can I correct this problem ? Please help.

regards,

Neeraj

Hi Neeraj,

I have to admit we've seen this error before but were unable to identify what is causing it so far.

First of all, can you please make sure you don't have a runner process pending? Kill any process like that as well as close any open browser (and kill browser process if any pending) and try again. Does that help?

If you still get the error can you please share all the info about your environment so that we can try to reproduce the error? The OS and browser info is important also please share what version of the .Net framework is installed on that machine.

Can you please check if you get the same error on another machine?

I am running these tests on IE 8.0,
.NET 2008 , 3.5 SP1 and Windows XP.

I was not getting this error until I tried
doing a validation on a textbox (the
reason why I opened this ticket). After this
my tests atleast the first time (most of the
times) seem to throw this timeout exception.
If I run them again then they seem to work.

Perhaps you can simulate this scenario in your
environment and then reproduce.

Please let me know if you were able to reproduce
this or need more information on my side.

Hi Neeraj,

I spent some time running the same environment and got no error executing tests -- XP SP3, IE8, VS 2008 SP1.

It could be a shot in the dark but can you please try enabling annotation during execution? It will slow down the execution a bit and could help by connecting to the controller a bit later. You can find the Enable/Disable annotation option in the Steps toolbar right next to the browser drop down. Just check that and try with some execution delay (by default the value is 400 millis).

All the best,
