js.executeScript("document.querySelector('input[name='password']');");
This line is throwing the following Exception in thread:
"main" org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: missing ) after argument list
Try the following code.
js.executeScript("document.querySelector('input[name=\'password\']')");
Try
js.executeScript("document.querySelector('input[name='password']')");
Let me know if this Answers your Question.
You can try one of the following
js.executeScript("document.querySelector(\'input[name=\'password\']\');");
js.executeScript("document.querySelector(\"input[name='password']\");");
Although in your comments you added this line
js.executeScript("document.querySelector('input[name=\'password\']').value='gamb'");
Which wouldn't work because if you look at .value you'll need to escape your .value setting as well more than likely.
Given that I don't have access to your site or your code, I would suggest that you test to make sure your javascript is valid for your page. One way to do so would be to take the javascript itself (everything insdie the .executeScript) and run it through your browsers dev tools console or script execution window.
If the value sets using the browsers dev tools, great...issue is with selenium. If the value does not set using browser dev tools...you'll need to refactor your javascript as the problem is likely not with selenium, rather your JS selector more than likely.
Although, the following, from your comment, works...you may not need to execute it via javascript.
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input[name='password']")).sendKeys("gamb");

I have many locators and if any one among them fails the program fails, We can not get a list of locators failed.
is there some way/method to get all the invalid locators in selenium automation???
The easy way (in case of you're using a framework and the code is well structured) :
Add the action performed on any locator into a try-catch block and store locator's name into a file, log it into console etc (it's up to you). In this way, you can follow up and update them after.
The manual way:
Go manually trough all your locators and look after them in HTML code in browser's console
The less painful manual way:
Execute all tests, and from your report (if you're using any reporting tool) or from console, collect and check each locator .
Now, if you're just doing a clean-up, I recommend the first approach. If you're facing issues with the locators, flaky situations, I recommend creating dynamic locators (xpath or css).
I'm using Zombie.js for testing with Cucumber-js, and I can't seem to get my client side scripts to run.
Visiting the page:
this.browser.visit("http://localhost/boic",function(e, browser,status,errors){
console.log('status',status);
console.log('error',errors);
console.log('console',browser.text("H1"));
});
Returns a status of 200, no errors, and displays the H1 text correctly. However, if I include a script to change the H1 code in the page:
<script>
$('H1').html('hello world');
</script>
The H1 text remains unchanged, and no global variables are accessible via browser.window...
thanks!
Did you load jQuery in your page before the script is called?
there is also the runScripts browser option but that defaults to true.
But I'm gonna recommend running an external phantom.js process and going through the webdriver interface. Just because I spent 6 months trying to get zombie to do what I wanted and phantomjs made it all easy. http://phantomjs.org/release-1.8.html https://github.com/LearnBoost/soda
I agree w/ Jon Biz. Zombie is difficult to work with. Many sites that use JS libraries that might contain minor errors cause it to crash (I think node fails) when the zombie browser encounters them - if you have the runScripts option set. This makes it very hard to use for any application/site that requires external JS - ie most of them.
I also recommend switching to Phantomjs.
[edit for godman] I am working on a web based application, written in PHP. I am using Selenium RC to run tests on the webpages produced by this application, through a browser.
I just upgraded to Firefox 14, so I had to upgrade to Selenium RC 2.25.0.
Now I'm seeing this error when running a test with htmlSuite:
Command execution failure. Please search the user group at
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/selenium-users for error
details from the log window. The error message is: t.replace is not a
function
The command executed is:
clickAndWait //a[text()='! selenium test customer']
As you can see, it's not doing anything too tricky - just clicking a link. The test runs fine in the IDE, it's just when run via RC that it's a problem.
Searching in the groups revealed only really old threads dating back to version 1 of selenium.
Any ideas anyone?
[edit] I've been running the test that has these problems several times a day for the last week - and it doesn't seem to fail like this every time. This looks like it's a random problem. Has anyone seen this happen before?
[edit after the bounty got me no answers] Another example of it failing is with:
clickAndWait css=a.edit_company
This same call works fine earlier in the same test, on the same page.
[edit] Now I'm seeing the same error with a completely separate command:
type id=Address1 Address1
Does anyone have any suggestions about this? Any way I can even debug what's going on (I don't see this in the IDE at all)
I am not terribly familiar with clickAndWait. I personally prefer clicking and then doing my own custom waiting.
Try just clicking and add a Thread.Sleep(5000), or something similar, and see if the error is a result of the click or the wait part.
If it is the wait part, then I have a different suggestion than if it is the click part.
I've seen similar issues across various platforms. It has always been somewhat random for me, so I don't use clickandWait. Generally is is much more reliable to do a plain click, and then wait for specific condition. You could do a waitforpageload, but that has also been unreliable for me so I prefer things like waitfortextpresent and waitforelementpresent.
Usually, this kind of error would occur if you are dealing with something that is not a string. Could you just make sure that you are dealing with strings only?
2 possibilities where it is arising from:-
When text() is executed -> it might be dealing with a non-string
a[expression] -> the expression(text() = '! selenium test customer') when evaluated to False/True might be the problem because if a is a Map/array, the corresponding key should be a string and not a bool, probably.
text()='! selenium test customer' -->> is it an assignment operation? if yes, make sure that text() returns a lvalue or a mutable object (based on the language you are using selenium rc with)
We're using WatiN to test our web portals. During the course of an E2E test, we'll occasionally see client-side script errors on the IE status bar. I'd like to chain a handler onto the script error event and record the error for later analysis and bug filing.
Problem is, I don't know that there's a global script error event or how to chain into it. And if there's not a browser-agnostic way to accomplish this, I can create MyIE and MyFF subclasses but then this becomes two browser-specific questions.
In essence, I'm thinking of something like this entirely made-up call:
browser.ScriptEngine.SetCustomErrorHandler(LogScriptingError);
... where LogScriptErrors is my code that does the obvious.
Many of our client-side scripting errors don't necessarily prevent the test from continuing (a pretty UI element didn't animate, for example, but the underlying form is still submittable), so I'd like to log the error and forge ahead in most cases.
You probably looking for this:
window.onerror=function(message, url, line){logError();};
You can add this code to your pages to handle errors in logError(). but this may not work in all browser(works in IE), check this for browser compatibility:
http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/events/error.html
Or you may try this commercial product:
exceptionhub.com/
You could maybe co-opt the ability to inject eval code (described under "Added Eval functionality") to add a script that caught all errors, not just errors from the eval'ed script. I'm not sure if this would work, but it's an area to explore. Another resource might be this blog post, which discusses how to evaluate Javascript in WatiN.
I'm using Selenium IDE in Firefox and submiting a form. The problem is that the form can be sucesfull or unsuccesfull (random). When it's unsuccesfull it will show and error message (AJAX) and I need to try to submit the form again.
I would like to write a test which will be submiting the form until it will redirect me to success page (text present).
Can someone helps me with this? I didn't play with Selenium this way yet.
Here is an extension that adds full-fledged looping, conditional execution, and callable functions to Selenium IDE: SelBlocks.
Dave Hunt mentioned flowControl, which is a possibility. But besides higher-level functionality, a significant difference is that SelBlocks takes eval expressions (regular javascript), which might make checking AJAX status a bit easier.
You can use selenium extension goto_sel_ide. This will enable flow control commands.
Then you can use while command, and with help of this you can run script till you get success message.
Let me know whether it is working for you or not
