I would like to store the text from an object locator and use it for assertion. For instance, I have a trade number - 1234. This trade number only appears after a transaction, so it is not static on other screens. This number is located on several other screens and I need to validate that it appears. I am able to locate the element through inspect and Playwright accepts it, but having issues:
Grabbing the text (1234)
Then setting up an assertion statement to compare it
Below are my humble and naïve attempts:
async getConfirmNumber() {
//Store the contents in the page locator which has the trade number
const tradeNumber = page.locator('div:nth-of-type(2) > .col-md-9.display-value.ng-binding').textContent;
//Navigate to a different screen which now will display the trade number
await this.page.click('a[caption="History"]')
await this.page.click('a[href="#/trade-summary"]')
//Line of code that I am not sure how to correctly write. ".bidconfirmation" is the locator on the new screen which displays the trade number.
//If the contents or value of ".bidconfirmation" is NOT 1234 then an error needs to display.
await expect(tradeNumber).toHaveCSS('.bidconfirmation', tradeNumber);
}
Just to let you know I would change the tag on this post to playwright-JavaScript to better reach the intended audience.
However, if I understand your question correctly you are trying to get the text content of an element but the textContent() method is not working, I would try to use the innerText() method and see if that works.
Apologies if this is a little off as I work with the java version of Playwright but you could do:
const tradeNumber = page.locator('div:nth-of-type(2) > .col-md-9.display-value.ng-binding').innerText(); //BTW I would change this locator to something unique or a little more stable -- this should give you the tradeNumber
//then I'm not 100% sure what your trying to do here but if I understand correctly this might help
await expect(page.locator('.bidconfirmation').toHaveValue(tradeNumber));
I hope this helped a little, Im sorry I couldn't really get an understanding fully of the question you were asking but feel free to take a look at playwright.dev to find documentation surrounding Playwright.
I am learning HP UFT.
Recently I came across fireevent and I tried to implement it on the website of Flipkart. I was trying to use firevent("onmouseover") for the link Men on the homepage of the website.
I used ChildObjects to find out the Link and WebElement (in two different tests), first Highlighted it and then used object.fireevent("onmouseover") as well as object.fireevent("OnClick"). The OnClick is working and it is showing the link as selected (i.e. the dotted box covering the link when we press tab), but it is not showing the Menu Under Men Section.
I had googled and bingged a lot. But was unable to find the exact working of FireEvent in QTP/UFT.
Please Help me solving the above problem as well as some tutorials on FireEvent.
EDIT: I am using IE 11 for testing.
Motti has already answered the technical definition, but I shall attempt to give you a solution to your functional issue.
In my experience .FireEvent often doesn't work as you would expect. An alternative for something like onmouseover is to simulate user behaviour a bit more closely by actually moving the mouse to the desired location. In our framework we have a little extension function to do just that, a pared-down version of which is shown here:
Sub My_MouseOver(objSender)
Dim absX : absX = objSender.GetROProperty("abs_x")
Dim absY : absY = objSender.GetROProperty("abs_y")
Dim width : width = objSender.GetROProperty("width")
Dim height : height = objSender.GetROProperty("height")
Dim x : x = (absX + (width / 2))
Dim y : y = (absY + (height / 2))
Dim deviceReplay : Set deviceReplay = CreateObject("Mercury.DeviceReplay")
deviceReplay.MouseMove x, y
Reporter.ReportEvent micDone, "A step name", "A useful step description"
End Sub
RegisterUserFunc "Link", "MouseOver", "My_MouseOver"
RegisterUserFunc "WebButton", "MouseOver", "My_MouseOver"
RegisterUserFunc "WebElement", "MouseOver", "My_MouseOver"
As an example you can then do as follows to bring up the "ELECTRONICS" menu overlay on flipkart.com (obviously substitute your own Browser and Page definitions):
Browser("Flipkart").Page("Main Nav").Link("xpath:=//a[#data-tracking-id='electronics']").MouseOver
In the original version there's various extra bits of error handling and custom reporting so it tells you what you clicked on, but the essence is the same. It locates the object on screen, calculates the centre and moves the mouse there. You might want to wait a small amount of time for the menu overlay to appear after doing so before calling .Click on one of the newly-displayed sub-elements.
I found a solution to my problem and it is working perfectly.
Setting.WebPackage("ReplayType") = 2
object.FireEvent "onmouseover"
Setting.WebPackage("ReplayType") = 1
In this case, the object will be:
Browser("name:=Online Shopping.*").Page("name:=Online Shopping.*").Link("innertext:=Men")
I have tried this and it is working fine. I guess, we do not need any alternatives. But I really don't know is, Ctrl+Space is not working for this in UFT. Don't know the reason.
This actually depends on what browser you're using.
Warning: There are exceptions to the information presented in this answer and it also may change in the future. The answer is meant to give a basic understanding but don't depend on it to be true without checking the behaviour for your specific version/use-case.
Originally QTP's FireEvent was supposed to call IE's non-standard fireEvent method.
On Firefox and Chrome this is implemented using the standard dispatchEvent. You should check which events the web site expects to get.
Things get complicated if you mix the event models (the standard DOM level 2 and Microsofts) as explained in this blog post.
If clarification is needed, please let me know. If it can't be done, please let me know this as well. I am desperately trying to figure this out still
I was following Google's Dev guide to the Share button at the following site:
https://developers.google.com/+/web/share/
and I can not seem to figure out how, if it's even possible, to use a custom icon AND use the current URL instead of having to specify a URL.
I found this section of their site that specifies an anchor tag address:
"https://plus.google.com/share?url={URL}"
This would allow me to use a custom icon (and the only way I can use a custom icon as far as I can tell) and a few other custom parameters as well. But it looks like this method requires a specified URL and, as far as I can tell, provides no method to dynamically create the link depending on the current page.
If I use the code generator at the top, it will use the current page, but it calls on a Google hosted Java Script and in addition, it is a hover link that pops up when I hover over the icon. And of course, I also can't use a custom icon with the generator either.
I've been Googling every search term I could think of and searching this site as well and I haven't been able to find anyone else asking this question as of yet. I figured after about 20-30 minutes of searching that I wasn't going to find my answer via searching, so i apologize if this has been answered.
Just some background on my experience to give an idea of where I sit: I have a decent grasp of the workings of HTML and CSS. Javascript, however, I understand very very basic theory and that's about it. I definitely intend to learn, however, as it will prove a very valuable skill.
Thank you very much!!
I think I know what needs to be done, but...I don't know how to do it (or if it would even work) :|
my share link needs to link to a script that looks at the current page's URL, and then takes that information, and creates a dynamic link from it that will take the user to the following link: https://plus.google.com/share?url={URL from query will be here}.
I think that might work...it sounds like it would. Any thoughts? If so, any simple scripts around that would do just this?
Double thanks!!
--I finally found something that works, but it uses Javascript and I don't fully understand it, just enough to tweak it. It took me forever to find this, but it works with Google Plus, Facebook, or Twitter! (and I'm sure it will work with any other website that supplies a Share Link that requires a specified URL)
Here it is, I'm still looking for a better solution, but this does exactly what I was looking for:
<a href="javascript:(
function(){
var w=480;var h=380;
var x=Number((window.screen.width-w)/2);
var y=Number((window.screen.height-h)/2);
window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'
&title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title),'','width='+w+',height='+h+',left='+x+',top='+y +',
scrollbars=no');
})();" style="background: url(/wp-content/themes/HTML5/images/googleplus.png) no-repeat scroll left center transparent;">
Share to Google+</a>
EDIT! After spending some months learning Javascript, I've built a solution that is much better than that which is provided below. I'll leave my original answer, however, I want to place this better solution at the top.
This solution should work on ANY social media platform that gives you a custom share URL (that is to say, a url that allows you to manually type in an address to share).
Here is how it all works (and if anyone has any suggestions or tweaks that have more experience with JS, please let me know).
I assign variables to the document.URL and document.titleproperties.
I write a named function (I called mine, socialShare) that is set to run via an anonymous function on the window.onloadevent.
The socialShare function assigns variables to the location of my social button's within the HTML. In my case, I used IDs to locate the elements. The purpose of these variables is purely for aesthetics (I use these variables to re-write the the HTML code dynamically, so that when you hover over the share button, it displays the correct URL for sharing the current page you are on)
var fbShare = document.getElementById("fbShare");
var gplusShare = document.getElementById("gplusShare");
twitterShare = document.getElementById("twitterShare");
I then write three separate anonymous functions, one for each social media platform. Each function has two statements. The functions work as follows: the first part is the variable assigned to the location of the HTML element with the ID fbShare. The second part tells it to run the function when that element is clicked; .onclick. The third part is the anonymous function that will run when that element is clicked. The first statement of this function will open a new window; window.open; and in that new window, it will open the URL that is specified by feeding the window.open method parameters. The parameters are as follows (URL,name,specs) where URL is the URL you want to share, name is optional and left blank as seen by the empty set of quotes, and finally specs is where you specify attributes of the window (IE: width and height). The first parameter, the URL: ("https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL, currentURL is the global variable that was assigned earlier and will place whatever the current documents URL is, in place of currentURL. The second parameter, the name: "", This is left blank, as it is optional. The third parameter, the specs: "height=368,width=600,left=100,top=100,menubar=0"); These are a comma-seperated list of items. In my case, I've specified a height, width, and the location of the window, as well as disabled the menubar. Finally, the second statement, return false; tells the browser NOT to follow the link inside the HTML code. If this was not specified, then the browswer would follow the URL in the HTML, AND open a new window. For more information on the window.open method, please see the link at the bottom of this new answer.
fbShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL,"","height=368,width=600,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
gplusShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://plus.google.com/share?url="+currentURL,"","height=550,width=525,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
twitterShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://twitter.com/share?url="+currentURL+"&text="+currentTitle,"","height=260,width=500,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
And finally, I modify the HTML href elements of each social media button so that when the user hovers over the share buttons, they see the correct Share URL displayed in their browsers status bar. The first part of this statement grabs the element id, fbShare and the second part tells it to set an attribute, .setAttribute. Then we pass in the attribute name that we want to change, ("href", in this case, and then we pass in what we would like the new attribute value to be, "http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL); currentURL is the same here, as earlier. It is the variable that holds the value for whatever the current page's URL is.
fbShare.setAttribute("href","http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL);
gplusShare.setAttribute("href","https://plus.google.com/share?url="+currentURL);
twitterShare.setAttribute("href","https://twitter.com/share?url="+currentURL+"&text="+currentTitle);
That's about all there is to it! I hope I wrote this well and I hope it is relatively easy to follow. If any pros out there have any suggestions, please feel free to toss in and give your advice! :)

OLD ANSWER: I figured I'd add this as an answer. It does the trick and solves the exact problem that I had. The URL after 'window.open' would be the social media's Share Link (in the case of the example, it's google plus' Share Link. There are a few variables that can be either modified or removed. Anyone that's good with scripting could probably create a PHP version (which I would LOVE) or modify it to better suite their needs. At any rate, I hope this will help someone out!

Native Window Open function its not a good idea, browsers like Mozilla and Chrome block pop up. I think its better use a plugin to open a new windows with the share url, like jquery popup plugin. Work very fine for me and browser cant block it.
Copy an paste into a new js file like original name: 'jquery.popup.js'
jQuery.fn.popup = function(options) {
var defaults = {
width: screen.width/2,
height: screen.height/2,
titlebar: false,
status: false,
resizable: true,
toolbar: false,
scrollbars: true,
menubar: false
};
var options = jQuery.extend(defaults, options);
Boolean.prototype.setProperty = function() {
if (this == true) { return "yes"; } else { return "no"; }
};
jQuery(this).click( function() {
var target = this.target;
var href = this.href;
var posY = (parseInt(screen.height/2)) - (parseInt(options.height/2));
var posX = (parseInt(screen.width/2)) - (parseInt(options.width/2));
var win = window.open(href, target, 'titlebar=' + options.titlebar.setProperty() + ', screenX='+ posX +', screenY='+ posY +', left='+ posX +', top='+ posY +', status=' + options.status.setProperty() + ', resizable=' + options.resizable.setProperty() + ', toolbar=' + options.toolbar.setProperty() + ', scrollbars=' + options.scrollbars.setProperty() + ', menubar=' + options.menubar.setProperty() + ', width='+ options.width +', height='+ options.height);
win.focus();
return false;
});
return this;
};
USAGE:
<script src="jquery.last.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.popup.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(function(){
//simple load
jQuery(".popupLink").popup({ width: 640, height: 480 });
});
</script>
<a class='popupLink' href="https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<?php echo URL;?>">Share Facebook</a>
ALSO YOU CAN PASS OPTIONS LIKE THE PLUGIN EXAMPLE OPTIONS
<script>
jQuery(".popupLink").popup({ width: 640, height: 480, resizable: false, menubar: true });
</script>
The author website dont exist any more. This are the information that comes with the plugin comments

You can also use PHP to resize the window but here is the PHP version... Have fun :)

Update #1: after the fix I commented about, now my app starts but the grid is not rendered except for its bounding box and filter button and popup. Yet, I get no error from the console, and as far as I can arrive with the debugger, I can see that data got from the server are OK. If I use Batarang, I can see the scope corresponding to my model, correctly filled with items. I updated the downloadable repro solution accordingly. Could anyone explain why ng-grid is not updating here?
I'm starting to play with ng-grid and TypeScript and I'm finding issues as soon as my test app starts up. See the bottom of this post for a link to a full test solution. Surely I have made tons of errors even in these few files, but I'd like to have something to start with and learn more step by step.
The MVC app has two client-side applications:
app.js for the default view (Home/Index). No typescript here, and the whole code is self-contained in this single file. The code is derived from the paging example in the ng-grid documentation and tries to stay as simplest as possible.
MyApp.js for the more realistic sample in another view (Home/Model). This sample uses services, models and controllers and its JS code is compiled from TypeScript. To keep things simple, I'm just storing these components under Scripts/App, in folders for Controllers, Models and Services, and each file contains just a single class or interface. The generated JS files are manually included in the view.
app.js works, except that it has issues with filtering. I posted about these here:
Server-side filtering with ng-grid: binding issue?
MyApp.js has startup issues with ng-grid. As soon as the app starts, a TypeError is thrown in the grid binding:
TypeError: Cannot set property 'gridDim' of undefined

The only similar issue I found by googling is https://github.com/angular-ui/ng-grid/issues/60, but it does not seem to be related to my case as there the grid options were setup too late.
The server side just has an API RESTful controller returning server-paged, sorted and filtered items.
You can find the full repro solution here (just save, unzip and open; all the dependencies come from NuGet); see the readme.txt file for more information:

Just start the app and click MODEL in the upper right corner to run the TypeScript app throwing the error. The whole app is composed of 1 controller, 1 service and 1 model.
For starters like me, it would be nice to have a simple working example like this one. Could anyone help?
This error means gridOptions has not yet been defined by the time that Angular attempts to parse ng-grid="yourArray", where yourArray is the same array supplied to gridOptions. I had the same problem after refactoring a previously working ng-grid.
So gridOptions must be defined before the element which has ng-grid="yourArray" attribute applied to it (rather than within that element's own controller).
I resolved this by defining gridOptions in an outer element somewhere (on global/app scope, for instance).
P.S. Maybe there is a better way, but this has worked for me.
Where you are adding data to your grid?
If you are writing $scope.myGrid={data:"someObj"}; in a success call then it won't work.
See the below reason:(which is listed in https://github.com/angular-ui/ng-grid/issues/60)
You can't define the grid options in the success call. You need to define
them on the scope in your controller and then set the data or column
definitions, etc... from the success call.
What you have to do?, First is to see how this made your project and revizar if your queries or data access, the beams through a service, if so this I must add the file that manages routes app, the client side.
remain so.
'use strict';
angular.module('iseApp', [
'ngCookies',
'ngResource',
'ngSanitize',
'ngRoute',
**'ngGrid',**
'campaignServices',
'dialinglistServices',
'itemServices'
])
.config(function ($routeProvider, $locationProvider, $httpProvider) {
$routeProvider
As you are adding your ng-grid in a directive, you have to make sure the grid options are loaded before it tries to parse your html.
You could set a boolean in your link function :
scope.isDirectiveLoaded=true;
And then, in your template, use a ng-if :
<div ng-if="isDirectiveLoaded">
<div ng-grid="myGrid"/>
</div>
I got to the same issue, empty grid was rendered.
The way I got to it in the end was to setup my this.gridOptions in the constructor of the controller, within the component. In the options everything is referenced with $ctrl like this. So the data references $ctrl.gridData. gridData is specified as a property in my component controller. $ctrl is not defined as a property.
This was done in the constructor before the data was loaded. this.gridData was defined after in the constructor and then populated later in another function. The options were defined first, I think this is important from some things I read.
For the event hooks pass null instead of $scope.
this.gridOptions = {
enableGridMenu: true,
minRowsToShow: 25,
rowHeight: 36,
enableRowHashing: true,
data: '$ctrl.gridData',
rowTemplate: this.$rootScope.blockedRowTemplate,
onRegisterApi: ($ctrl) => {
this.gridApi = $ctrl;
this.gridApi.colMovable.on.columnPositionChanged(null, (colDef, originalPosition, newPosition) => {
this.saveState();
});
this.gridApi.colResizable.on.columnSizeChanged(null, (colDef, deltaChange) => {
this.saveState();
});
this.gridApi.core.on.columnVisibilityChanged(null, (column) => {
this.saveState();
});
this.gridApi.core.on.sortChanged(null, (grid, sortColumns) => {
this.saveState();
});
this.gridApi.core.on.filterChanged(null, (grid, sortColumns) => {
this.saveState();
});
}
};
In the row template I was referencing functions defined in my component. Before conversion to a component I referenced functions like this:
ng-click="grid.appScope.jumpToExport(row.entity);"
After conversion to the component I needed to add the $ctrl before the function name like this
ng-click="grid.appScope.$ctrl.jumpToExport(row.entity);"
And this is how the component is referenced in the html
<div ui-grid="$ctrl.gridOptions" ng-if="$ctrl.gridData.length != undefined && $ctrl.gridData.length > 0" class="data-grid" ui-grid-save-state ui-grid-resize-columns ui-grid-move-columns></div>
I am working in Ektron 8.6.
I have a FormBlock Server Control in my Template Page,It is having a DefualutFormID of a valid HTML form from workarea.The form in the workarea have got few form fields and their corresponding values.
While the template page is rendering I need to GET those form field values and re-set them with some other values.
In which Page –Cycle event I should do this coding?
I tried this code in Pre-Render Event,but I am unable to GET the value there,but I am able to set a value.
I tried SaveStateComplete event as well,no luck.
String s=FormBlock1.Fields["FirstName"].Value;
If(s=”some text”)
{
// Re-set as some other vale.
FormBlock1.Fields["FirstName"].Value=”Some other value”;
}
In which event I can write this piece of code?
Page_Load works fine for changing the value of a form field. The default behavior is for the Ektron server controls to load their data during Page_Init.
The real problem is how to get the default value. I tried every possible way I could find to get at the data defining an Ektron form (more specifically, a field's default value), and here's what I came up with. I'll admit, this is a bit of a hack, but it works.
var xml = XElement.Parse("<ekForm>" + cmsFormBlock.EkItem.Html + "</ekForm>");
var inputField = xml.Descendants("input").FirstOrDefault(i => i.Attribute("id").Value == "SampleTextField");
string defaultValue = inputField.Attribute("value").Value;
if (defaultValue == "The default value for this field is 42")
{
// do stuff here...
}
My FormBlock server control is defined on the ASPX side, nothing fancy:
<CMS:FormBlock runat="server" ID="cmsFormBlock" DynamicParameter="ekfrm"/>
And, of course, XElement requires the following using statement:
using System.Xml.Linq;
So basically, I wrap the HTML with a single root element so that it becomes valid XML. Ektron is pretty good about requiring content to be XHTML, so this should work. Naturally, this should be tested on a more complicated form before using this in production. I'd also recommend a healthy dose of defensive programming -- null checks, try/catch, etc.
Once it is parsed as XML, you can get the value property of the form field by getting the value attribute. For my sample form that I set up, the following was part of the form's HTML (EkItem.Html):
<input type="text" value="The default value for this field is 42" class="design_textfield" size="24" title="Sample Text Field" ektdesignns_name="SampleTextField" ektdesignns_caption="Sample Text Field" id="SampleTextField" ektdesignns_nodetype="element" name="SampleTextField" />
