I want to click the button which is in table,And table is coming from jquery ajax.
I have tried
$vic->click("Approved",Locator::href("//*[#id='users']/tbody/tr[1]/td[5]/a='Approved'"));
Link or Button by name or CSS or XPath element with 'Approved' was not found.
It looks like you are using module which does not execute client side Javascript code.
If you want to test that code, you must use WebDriver module which tests websites using real browser.
Like #Naktibalda said, you should look at the WebDriver docs. You can do something like this:
$I->waitForElement(['id' => 'myButtonFromTheAjaxCall']);
$I->click(['id' => 'myButtonFromTheAjaxCall']);
Also, I would use a unique ID on that button coming over from your AJAX call if you can rather than using XPath, it's quicker I think.

I am having handling a drop down button in EXTJS application which i am trying to automation with selenium web driver.
clicking on the image i will get a list of elements in the form of 's
to click select from
Please help me how i can device a xpath to click this image, which i should not use "id" (as its extjs it might vary every now and then).
if there are any selector i can use for extjs please suggest. Thanks for your help.
<DIV id=ext-gen2337 class=x-form-field-wrap style="WIDTH: 0px"><INPUT id=ext-gen2023 class=" x-form-text x-form-field" style="WIDTH: 297px" readOnly size=24 value="Clients with pending exceptions" name=ext-gen2023 autocomplete="off"><IMG id=ext-gen2338 class="x-form-trigger x-form-arrow-trigger" src="https:REDACTED/com.ssc.epw.gui.EPWHome/clear.cache.gif">
Try below XPath to match required img element:
//input[#value="Clients with pending exceptions"]/following-sibling::img
So if you want to start testing ExtJS app and you don't want to use the best solution for this such as Sencha Test or Bryntum Siesta.
The best way to approach this is to write you own layer between the ExtJS components and the html dom of the site.
You can see more info in my answer here https://stackoverflow.com/a/41718879/1768843
But what you need to do is to use the Ext.Component.Query, with Selenium you can execute the javascript code on the site. So you execute the ext query and you pass there the Ext selector - for example button[text=something] or panel[name=mainPanel] simply any ExtJS component selector. This will return you the ExtJS object and with it you can simply call .getDom() or .getId() which will return you the actual dom or id used in the HTML. Next you can simply use the webdriver functions for clicking (or something) on the HTML elements in the site.
^^ You need to do this because the ExtJS framework can generate the HTML every-time little bit differently. For example you add new container or you upgrade your ExtJS version and the HTML is changed and your test can stop working. But if you call the Ext components as log as the Ext source code is still the same your tests will be always working.
But doing this is quite a hassle and lot of work. It's much better to use prepared solutions such as Sencha Test where everything is already prepare for testing ExtJS apps.
I would do something like this:
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(#class, 'x-form-field-wrap')]//img"));
or
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//img[contains(#src, 'https://REDACTED/com.ssc.epw.gui.EPWHome/clear.cache.gif')]"));
I am trying to explore log In button xpath with this site https://www.componence.com/login, by just recording and play back.Then I tried to get it through firepath and chrome browser default xpath copier.
But it looks like every time submit button xpath get changed with page load. I got following xpath for "Sign IN" button.
.//*[#id='yui_patched_v3_11_0_1_1487250469606_202']
.//*[#id='yui_patched_v3_11_0_1_1487251369606_202']
.//*[#id='yui_patched_v3_11_0_1_1487250229606_202']
.//*[#id='yui_patched_v3_11_0_1_1487254369606_202']
Can you please help me to retrieve correct xpath of Sign IN button which I can use with selenium IDE?
You can use below XPath to handle dynamic id:
//button[starts-with(#id, "yui_patched_v3_11_0_1_")]
But better solution is to use text content of element:
//button[normalize-space(text())="Sign In"]
I will have to disagree with the second statement of #Andersson, since it will work for .com but not for .nl.
As I see the site has a second language and my opinion is to avoid using selectors based on text on a multi-language environment.
Also as I see the id seems does not have a meaningful value, in this case try to identify a unique parent section and go from there.
One option for css/xpath would be:
css: form.sign-in-form button
xpath: //form[contains(#class, 'sign-in-form')]//button
Apologies for this;
Event Triggers
Photos
Push Notifications
How can I Click on Event triggers for example using Selenium Java?
I've tried this code:
By.xpath("//button[contains(text(),'Event triggers')]");
By.xpath("//button[contains(text(),'Submit')]");
I tried this as well:
WebElement Box= driver.findElement(By.tagName("Event triggers"));
Box.submit();
Neither of these worked...
Thank you
Try to using this:
By.xpath("//a[contains(text(),'Event triggers')]");
instead of
By.xpath("//button[contains(text(),'Event triggers')]");
Based on the page source mentioned in the comment I think Event Triggers is not a button but an tag which essentially makes it a link.
As you know the text of the link you are trying to click you can always use:
driver.findElement(By.linkText("Event Triggers"));
to get Event Triggers web element.
Using xpath should be avoided due to slow performance.
Well, if button doesnt have any id , you can try to write dynamic xpath by using "class name" and "type" (there are plenty of examples , you can learn easily how to create your xpath) , or easiest way, use firebug to locate element that you want to click and copy exact Xpath via firebug. And then click.
The correct answer is:
By.xpath("//button[contains(text(),'Event triggers')]").click();
You were missing that click action.
I'm writing automation code in Capybara with Selenium.
I have the following element in my HTML, and I wanna click this element in Capybara.
click me
At the moment, the way worked is something like following.
find('.classA', :text=>"click me").click
But I wanna select the element from the names of the two classes like this
find('a.classA.classB').click
click_on('a.classA.classB')
I know we can get javascript code fired, but this is not smart.
page.execute_script('$("a.classA.classB").click()')
You can search an element by xpath
based on your example, seems like the following should work
//div[contains(#class, 'classA') and contains(#class, 'classB')]
You could also use css
(:css, ".classA.classB")
I'd like to be able to test the content in CKeditor using webdriver.
However there are some hurdles; firstly CKeditor uses Iframes, and there are several Iframes on the page, so not sure how to switch reliably to it using WebDriver as they don't have specific names.
In addition, the content inside the editor is within a <body></body> tag inside the iframe. I'm not sure how to get WebDriver to return the content reliably.
Has anyone actually tried to do this in their tests? If so, how did you achieve it?
Thanks.
You can use the CKEditor api and execute javascript. Not sure which selenium driver you are using but here is the java script you can use to get the HTML for:
"return CKEDITOR.instances['youreditoridhere'].getData();"
