    Hi,

     

    I'm reviewing the Telerik Testing Framework with WPF. I've managed to launch our application, find 'elements' by Automation ID and I'm able to click these. However, we open a text input window when clicking a button. The text input window is a 'child' window for the MainWindow, however, I'm unable to find any of the visible AutomationID's. Do I need to change to the 'child' window? If so how do I do this?

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Shaun,

    Thank you for reaching us out. 

    Once a new wpf window is triggered you will need to first find it and then continue interacting with it. I hope the WPFWindow class and the WpfApplication class will be useful for you. 

    To set the focus on a window you could use the following: 

    Manager.ActiveApplication.GetWindow("yourWindowCaption").SetWindowFocus();

    Please let me know if you would need further assistance on our end! Thanks!
