Watir Webdriver and JQuery

raveendranLeave a comment

Most of the time in internet explorer, JQuery automation is little bit tricky and we need to use some methods like below only for IE browsers.

Put the below methods in to your library folder

def trigger_jquery_change(element)
$browser.execute_script(“$(‘##{element}’).change()”)
end

def trigger_jquery_onblur(element)
$browser.execute_script(“$(‘##{element}’).blur()”)
end
Script section(Including page object)

@SOME_SELECT_FIELD=$browser.select_list(:id,’ID_OF_THE_TEXT_FIELD’)

@SOME_SELECT_FIELD.when_present.select(@ANY_OPTION)
if @browser_name == “ie”
trigger_jquery_change(@SOME_SELECT_FIELD)
end

if @browser_name == “ie”
trigger_jquery_onblur(@SOME_SELECT_FIELD)
end

 

I hope there is no need to explain this code. if required please feel free to end mail to jazzezravi@gmail.com

Watir / Selenium Web Driver – Browser Downloads — Solution to download pdf files automatically in firefox 20+ version

raveendran11 Comments

 

Solution to download pdf files automatically in firefox 20+ version using Selenium webdriver or Watir webdriver

 

Description:

I have tried to save PDF files automatically using the below link — http://watirwebdriver.com/browser-downloads/  and I have followed the same as per the mentioned page and reference website. But still the firefox browser not downloaded PDF files automatically.

Reason:

In Firefox latest versions, They have added new function called as ‘Portable Document Format’ which causes the issue

Solution:

Please try the below code for latest firefox versions.

download_directory = "#{Dir.pwd}/downloads"

download_directory.gsub!("/", "\\") if Selenium::WebDriver::Platform.windows?
profile = Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.new
profile['browser.download.folderList'] = 2 # custom location
profile['browser.download.dir'] = download_directory
profile['browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk'] = "text/csv,application/pdf"

profile[‘pdfjs.disabled’] = true
profile[‘pdfjs.firstRun’] = false

b = Watir::Browser.new :firefox, :profile => profile
Note:
profile[‘pdfjs.disabled’] = true
profile[‘pdfjs.firstRun’] = false
These 2 lines are added. Thats it 🙂

Convert web page(using Watir-Webdriver) to PDF File (Its my 150th post :) )

raveendran3 Comments

–

Question/Requirement:

1. I just navigated to the webpage “http://humblelittlerubybook.com/book/hlrb.pdf&#8221;

2. I want to Save the web page as a PDF File.

Solution:

1. Install Ruby

2. Install Watir-webdriver (CMD>gem install watir-webdriver)

3. Register Autoitx3.dll (https://raveendran.wordpress.com/2012/06/15/how-to-installregister-autoitx3-dll/)

4. Run the Below Script

Code:

require 'rubygems'
require 'watir-webdriver'
require 'win32ole'

ie=Watir::Browser.new :ie
ie.goto(“http://humblelittlerubybook.com/book/hlrb.pdf&#8221;)

sleep 15
$autoit = WIN32OLE.new(“AutoItX3.Control”)

$autoit.Send(“{ALTDOWN}”)
sleep 3
$autoit.Send(“f”)
sleep 3
$autoit.Send(“{ALTUP}”)
sleep 3

$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 3
$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{DOWN}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{ENTER}”)
sleep 10
$autoit.Send(“D:\\test1.pdf”)
sleep 3
$autoit.Send(“{TAB}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{TAB}”)
sleep 1
$autoit.Send(“{ENTER}”)
sleep 1

Note:

1. Depends upon your browser you may need to add/remove the {TAB} and {DOWN}  lines

2. Change the destination folder.

Output:

PDF file saved in the mentioned location D:\\test1.pdf

Installation:

1. Install Ruby

2. CMD>gem install watir-webdriver

3. CMD>gem install rspec

Code:

google_search.rb

require 'rubygems'
require 'watir-webdriver'

class Google
def search(browser,term,result)

if browser.downcase=="ie"
br= :ie
elsif browser.downcase=="ff"
br= :ff
elsif browser.downcase=="chrome"
br= :chrome
else
br= :ie
end

$ie=Watir::Browser.new br
$ie.goto("http://google.com")
$ie.text_field(:name,'q').set(term)
sleep 3
$ie.button(:name,'btnG').click
sleep 3
$result=$ie.text.downcase.include?(result)

$ie.close
end

end

googleSearch_spec.rb

require 'rubygems'
require 'rspec'
require 'google_search'

describe Google, "#Searchresult" do
it "returns the expected result in search result page" do

describe Google, "#Searchresult" do
it "returns the expected result in search result page" do
bowling = Google.new
bowling.search("chrome","Ruby highline","raveendran")
$result.should eq(true)
end
end

RUN THE RSPEC code:

1. Navigate to the folder where files available

>rspec googleSearch_spec.rb

 

OUTPUT:

It will launch Chrome browser and will execute the test cases. Finally You will get the output like,

@ie=Watir::IE.new
@ie.goto(“google.com”)
puts “Entering Term”
@ie.text_field(:name,’q’).set(@term)
@ie.button(:name,’btnG’).click
@output = @ie.text.include?(@result_term)
@ie.close

Watir — Priority for using attributes

raveendranLeave a comment

Source:

<input id=”query1″ type=”text” autocomplete=”off” value=”” name=”query”/>

Code:

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘watir’
$ie=Watir::IE.new
$ie.maximize
$ie.goto(“http://search.aol.in/aol/webhome&#8221;)
$ie.text_field(:id,’query1′).value=”Raveendran”

Issue:

Change the last line of the code like this

$ie.text_field(:name,’query’).value=”Raveendran”

It is not working :). Rit ?

Solution:

So the first priority goes to the “ID” attirbute  to access the input fields.

Watir vs Selenium

raveendran10 Comments

 

NOTE:   Its not comparison of Watir-webdriver and Selenium-webdriver

We had a 2 different mechanism before webdriver(2009) and this comparison is not useful if you are looking with Webdriver Option 🙂

 

 

Watir — Opens browser as a normal way how the user opens it. Selenium — Create object for browser and works with that object in mentioned/particular port.

Watir — Changing registry details(Proxy-http,socks) is very easy. Selenium — Changing registry details(Proxy-http,socks) is not easy work.

Selenium — If your net connection is very slow then Selenium MAY returns error because of waitForPageToLoad exceeds(We can handle it by its not easy for beginneers) and  also sleep commads most of the times fails.  Watir — Watir waits until the page was fully loaded. We can use sleep commands

Watir is a Ruby library that wraps the COM interface to Internet Explorer. COM is a long-standing Windows-based technology for making libraries accessible to various languages. This allows access to the Document Object Model (DOM) so it doesn’t matter where on the page an object exists, what matters is how you identify it (id, name, title, etc).

Selenium uses a unique mechanism for driving browsers. Selenium’s automation engine is written in JavaScript and runs inside a browser. The engine, called a browser bot, is embedded in a page that accesses the application under test in a separate frame. Because of cross-site scripting, Selenium’s browser bot has to be served from the same site as the application under test – requiring installation on the server.

Selenium supports a command language, called Selenese. Tests can be embedded in an HTML table, which will be read in by the browser bot and then executed.

Both tools run tests directly in a browser, and both do it in a way that allows the browser to be minimized while the tests are running, which means you don’t have to dedicate a machine to running tests.(if you open more tahn 10 browsers tehn may be your machine hangs depends upon hardware)

Watir was designed to be easy to learn, it allows page elements to be identified by index, name, ID, value or adjacent text.  Now Watir supports IE, Firefox,chrome,Safari with the help of  Firewatir, SafariWatir,chrome Watir. Complaint: Watir is currently limited to IE browsers on Windows, Firewatir supports  firefox browsers. So we need to write separate code(or object) for each and every browsers. But Selenium does in Single attempt.

Selenium was designed for breadth of coverage- multiple browsers and platforms. It was expected to be used by the same developers who built the application. Drawback: Selenium requires a server-side installation.

You can also express Selenium tests in a programming language, taking advantage of language-specific drivers that communicate in Selenese to the browser bot.

Learning Watir –> Without Ruby knowledge its not possible to write the watir script for one web application.

Learning Selenium –> Programming skill is not Major. But the QA should familiar with anyone of the language from Ruby/Java/perl/Puthon/c#/Groovy/PHP to implement the code for any web application.
