I have written a couple of simple .JSX scripts that automate some common monkeywork I do in Photoshop.
I wrote the scripts in ExtendScriptToolkit and then execute them with File > Scripts > Browse and select the script I want. This runs the script and does what I want it to but it also launches ExtendScriptToolkit again each time. I have passed the script to a few others at work and they have all asked me to fix this so that the script executes purely within Photoshop but I can't make it work.
Basically, how can I run the script from Photoshop without it launching the script editor as well?
Cheers in advance for your help
Check your script for $.writeln() statements. This could be a problem. You can also suppress debugging by setting the debug level.
Taken from the Object Model Viewer in ESTK
// $.level
// Data Type: number
// Core JavaScript Classes
// The current debugging level, which enables or disables the JavaScript debugger.
// One of 0 (no debugging), 1 (break on runtime errors), or 2 (full debug mode).
$.level = 0;
$.writeln("something");
alert("Hello World");
Edit:
I tried the debug level with the script above. It still opens the ESTK :-(
Looks like it does not work. Can anybody confirm this?
$.level = 0;
"The current debugging level, which enables or disables the JavaScript
debugger. Read only." Page 217
But when script run from ESTK $.level == 1
When from APP $.level == 0
Аnd solution may be if ($.level) $.writeln("JSC");

I'm running a set of automated UI tests using Appium/Winappdriver on Windows 10. The test framework is compiled in Visual Studio 2017 using mstest.
The problem that I am having is with tests that use a right-click to open a context menu, then select an element from the resulting menu. Locally, it works. It also works on our remote CI/CD machine. However, it does not work for the other two developers on the project, and we've spent two business days fruitlessly trying to figure out why.
We have the same Windows version (Windows 10, version 1903), we have the same Visual Studio 2017 (we also tried it with 2019, no luck), we have the same monitor resolution (1920 x 1080), we are targeting the same .NET framework (4.72), we have the same WinAppDriver, etc.
Everything else works just fine. But when the UI Test reaches that context menu, the test fails with the error "An element could not be located on the page using the given search parameters."
I used the WinAppDriver UI Recorder to find the XPath for the element. We also used it on the other user's machine and confirmed that, as far as the UI Recorder is concerned, the path is identical on both machines.
The specific call that fails:
Session.FindElementByXPath("/Pane[#ClassName=\"#32769\"][#Name=\"Desktop 1\"]/Menu[#ClassName=\"#32768\"][#Name=\"Context\"]/MenuItem[#Name=\"" + itemName + "\"]");
The WinAppDriver call on my machine (success):
{"using":"xpath","value":"/Pane[#ClassName=\"#32769\"][#Name=\"Desktop 1\"]/Menu[#ClassName=\"#32768\"][#Name=\"Context\"]/MenuItem[#Name=\"New Location\"]"}
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 125
Content-Type: application/json
{"sessionId":"8970FDC1-E869-4304-A87D-D8F2CB711EA2","status":0,"value":{"ELEMENT":"42.856234.4.-2147483646.8140.18614751.1"}}
and the same call on the other user's machine (fail):
{"using":"xpath","value":"/Pane[#ClassName=\"#32769\"][#Name=\"Desktop 1\"]/Menu[#ClassName=\"#32768\"][#Name=\"Context\"]/MenuItem[#Name=\"New Location\"]"}
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Length: 139
Content-Type: application/json
{"status":7,"value":{"error":"no such element","message":"An element could not be located on the page using the given search parameters."}}
Again, everything else works. Other UI tests that don't use the right-click context menus work just fine. It's only this particular area that fails.
What I've tried so far:
Using Thread.Sleep to force a long wait before making the call
Wrapping the call with a DefaultWait and polling it over a period of several seconds to see if the element becomes available during that time.
When the "An element could not be located" is thrown, retry up to a set number of times to find the element.
Lots and lots of double-checking to make sure we're both on the same version of the code, same libraries, same nuget packages, etc.
Trying a much broader locator ( Session.FindElementByName(itemName); )
The biggest head-scratcher is that when we check with UI Recorder, the element is there. When we check on my machine or the remote build machine, WinAppDriver can find it normally. But for some reason WinAppDriver can't find it on my coworker's machines.
This is a peculiar issue indeed.
I'd like to rule out the XPath selector as a potential problem here. Based on your syntax, it looks like you are using an absolute XPath. These can be extremely brittle depending on the circumstances. Not saying it's the root problem, but I would like to try a different selector to rule this out.
{"using":"xpath","value":"//MenuItem[#Name=\"New Location\"]"}
Using relative // notation tells your path to look anywhere on the page, rather than following a specific path down to the element itself.
Give this a try, and let me know if it helps at all.
For my application context menu is listed out of the DOM of actual application in inspect.exe. So switching back to desktop session after selecting the context menu worked fine for me.
var regressionChannelRow = labelProcessorSession.FindElementByName("5000");
Actions action1 = new Actions(labelProcessorSession);
regressionChannelRow.Click();
action1.ContextClick(regressionChannelRow).Perform();
Now creating a desktop session to get the "Stop" option from the context menu
AppiumOptions appCapabilities = new AppiumOptions();
appCapabilities.AddAdditionalCapability("app", "Root");
WindowsDriver<WindowsElement> desktopSession;
desktopSession = new WindowsDriver<WindowsElement>(new Uri("http://127.0.0.1:4723"), appCapabilities);
below is the context menu option which I need to select, remember to use desktop session here
var stopService = desktopSession.FindElementByName("Stop");
stopService.Click();
I've just replicated this issue. I was working on a test that I wrote last week, which was now getting stuck trying to find the context menu from a desktop session. I tried using various XPaths, searching by class name or just name, but it didn't seem to make any difference.
Eventually I tried closing Spotify, and that solved the issue! If you're experiencing this problem then try closing every application window possible.
Guys First of all I am totally new for Selenium.
I am having a automation project. In my project, I am creating a screenshot function to take screenshots of my event which I have created for my testcases. Now if my test cases passes then all screenshot should move to Pass folder, else fail folder.
I would like to know how to detect that my test case pass?
I know Nunit detects but I wanted to program it so that I cam place my screenshot as well as log file to pass or fail folder.
Program in C#
Selenium
Nunit to run my test case.
I think you meant was this. But there is work around for this. You need to add your code accordingly.
if (TestContext.CurrentContext.Result.Outcome.Equals(ResultState.Failure))
{
IntegrationTest.WriteInLog("FAILS");
}
else if (TestContext.CurrentContext.Result.Outcome.Equals(ResultState.Success))
{
IntegrationTest.WriteInLog("SUCESS");
}
Check status property and compare it with TestStatus enum at teardown method.
NUnit2:
TestContext.CurrentContext.Result.Status
NUnit3:
TestContext.CurrentContext.Result.Outcome.Status
I am building a simple Safari extension and sometimes the start script start.js specified is never included ans sometimes it is included many times like so :
Has it ever happened to you ?
This is probably due to iframes. The injected script is loaded in every iframe in the current tab. I don't think you can stop the script itself loading, but you can use if (window == window.top) within the script to ensure that code is only executed in the main page, not the contained iframes.
I've got the following code in a thread in my application:
while (true) {
if (ready) {
progressIndicatorController.value++;
return;
}
}
The ready variable is changed from a delegate method. This code works great when I open the application by clicking the "Run" button in Xcode's toolbar. However, if I open this application's .app (which I create by clicking Product > Archive and then following the steps) this code somehow doesn't work anymore.
progressIndicatorController.value is never incremented and this if-statement never evaluates to true. What could cause this problem?
This is probably caused by optimization from the compiler.
When you build with Archive, XCode enabled optimization in the compiler that could throw this kind of code away. I think setting the ready variable to volatile could fix your problem, altough if I were you I'd just try to rewrite it so it doesn't trigger this problem.
You can test with optimization turned on by choosing Edit Schemes in the scheme dropdown. Then set Build Configuration to Release in the Run MyApp.app. Don't forget to set it back to Debug when you're done though, as the debugger gets somewhat confused when optimization are on (i.e. you can't see the value of most variables, some breakpoints may behave erratically, etc...)
I have a checkbox that I'm trying to click in Selenium IDE - but only if it's not already active.
I'm using Selenium IDE to create my tests, and htmlsuite to run them - anyone know how I can use an "if" in those?
You'll have to download the Flow Control plugin for Selenium IDE from the official page (aaaall the way down).
The most useful link I found is this one, because it has a complete example in it: http://selenium.10932.n7.nabble.com/if-else-statement-td4370.html
Anyway, there's also a documentation and author's blogpost explaining something more.
The only alternative I know about is implementing the whole logic in javascript - including the test steps. It's possible, it's a little bit harder to get right, but if you'll end up stuck with IDE without plugins, it might be your only save:
var value = this.browserbot.findElement("id=someInput").value;
if (value == "Slanec is the best!") {
this.browserbot.findElement("id=someButton").click();
}
Try this:
**storeTextPresent || [some_value] || [variable_name]**
**gotoIf || storedVars['variable_name']** == true || **goto_label_name**
// Command to execute if the condition is not met
**label goto_label_name**
// This is where the script will jump to when
// Command to execute if the condition is met, this part may be off course unrelated to the initial condition
You'll need to have installed the Flow Control plugin for Selenium IDE.
