Unable to select an option from a drop down in Katalon studio - select

I am new to Katalon Studio and I am facing an issue regarding selection of the drop down.
Please find below the details:
This is the HTML :
I have tried using selectByIndex with the object xpath as:
//div[#class='paCriteriaContainer']//select[#class = 'pa-criteria-select a-select initialized']
It does not select any option and fails with an error stating "Unable to select option by index '2' of object"
Note:
I tried clicking on the input and then selecting the option, but that doesn't seem to work either.
Selecting by label and value don't work either
Please help me here.
Thank you

Try to capture an object and then use following methods :
WebUI.click(findTestObject(Your captured object))
WebUI.selectOptionByValue(findTestObject(Your captured object), 'TEST (2020)', false)
Did you done as I've described and it does not work ?

I tried clicking on the input and then selecting the option, but that doesn't seem to work either.
Are you sure you are clicking the right element in this case?
Try the following instead: create programmatically the element and select by value (note, value isn't the text contained, it is the value html attribute):
TestObject to = new TestObject().addProperty("xpath", ConditionType.EQUALS, "//div[#class='paCriteriaContainer']//select[#class = 'pa-criteria-select a-select initialized']")
WebUI.selectOptionByValue(to, '40696', false)

You have some options to do that, I reggardly suggest you that use always the xpath to reach all the elements that you want to use. The reasson is because the object reports usually fail and, in my opinion, this way is so much more complicated.
But obviously, the xpath will change if the web do, so take care with it.
The imports you need:
import static org.junit.Assert.*
import org.openqa.selenium.By
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys
import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.driver.DriverFactory as DriverFactory
def driver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
//If you want to click your input would be:
WebUI.click(WebUI.convertWebElementToTestObject(driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//input[#id='a-select-paCricteriaId_6908'])"))))
//**you just can click on "TestObject" type, and findElement returns "Element" type**
And if you want to select the option you need to know the whole path (I cannot get it with the given information).
An important tip for testing the xpath is to use this function in console mode (F12):
function getElementByXpath(path) {
return document.evaluate(path, document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue;
}
//And this code in the same console to test your xpath:
getElementByXpath("YOURTESTXPATH")
Furthermore, there are other ways to reach the same objetive with xpath, for example:
import com.kms.katalon.core.testobject.TestObject as TestObject
...
TestObject tobj = new TestObject('myTestObject')
String expr = '/some/valid/xpath/expression'
tobj.addProperty('xpath', ConditionType.EQUALS, expr)
WebUI.click(tobj)
You have a lot of information if you google "how to get elements by xpath katalon".
Here you can get official information about it:
https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/tutorials/detect_elements_xpath.html#what-is-xpath

Test in the browser console
$x('//*[contains(#class, "pa-criteria-select a-select initialized")]')
if more than one result appear then you can access it like this
$x('(//*[contains(#class, "pa-criteria-select a-select initialized")])[1]')
then you can also access their children
$x('(//*[contains(#class, "pa-criteria-select a-select initialized")])[1]/option')

Use WebUI.selectOptionByIndex keyword but the object should point to the select tag instead of the div.
Update the object element and your code should work

OrientDB: How to return plugins results?

I have create a java-function that return the full path between two OElement but I do not found the correct way to return it results.
Actually it collect all the path in ArraList<ArrayList> but it is not shown in the Studio. I suppose that I should use something like OResultSet but I don't found anythig about its.
Example:
I implemented this: fullpath(from, to, maxDepth, conditions)
select fullPath(#58:0, #65:0)
n1,path_1,n2_1,path_1,n3_1,path_1,n4
n1,path_2,n2_3,path_1,n4
n1,path_1,n2_2,path_1,n3_2,path_1,n4
n1,path_1,n2_2,path_2,n3_3,path_1,n4_1,path_2,n3_2,path_1,n4
and I'am working on this:
select fullPath(n1, n4, 100, include(path_1))
n1,path_1,n2_1,path_1,n3_1,path_1,n4
n1,path_1,n2_2,path_1,n3_2,path_1,n4
The code is here: fullPath on github
Thanks.
I think the main problem here is that the result of the function is being returned as a single result, so Studio cannot manage it.
As a first attempt, I'd try to do a
SELECT expand(fullPath(...))
This will definitely work in the tabular view in Studio, but it will still not display in the GRAPH view.
For the GRAPH view, my suggestion is to put all the RIDs in a single ArrayList and then do the expand()
With ArraList<ArrayList> did not work, but an ArrayList<OIdentifiable[ ] > did the job.

Cannot detect test object in Katalon using xpath

I want to find a test object with an xpath starting with id("foo")/. I tried with the following line:
findTestObject("MyPath", [('id'), 'foo'])
but it doesn't work. I've already tried the most obvious solution, that is checking the property xpath and using
findTestObject("MyPath")
but it didn't work because apparently part of the xpath changes at runtime.
Try to find your element via Selenium WebElement.
Example:
def driver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
WebElement elem = driver.findElement(ById.id('elementID'))

Getting properties from AEM multifieldpanel dialog stops working when a second entry is added

I have created an AEM Dialog which prompts the user for a set of links and labels.
These links and labels are stored in a jcr node and are used to generate a menu.
To avoid having to create a custom xtype, I am using the acs-commons multifieldpanel solution, which enables me to nest children under the fieldConfig node.
This works great with only 1 Label/Link pair, but when I add a second one - the property cannot be fetched anymore, since instead of a String, it returns the String hashcode.
The property generated by the multifieldpanel in the jcr node is of type String and is filled correctly when inspecting in CRXDE. The problem occurs when I try to fetch the value from within a Sightly HTML file.
Code
Dialog:
Definitions.js:
"use strict";
use(function () {
var CONST = {
PROP_URLS: "definitions",
};
var json = granite.resource.properties[CONST.PROP_URLS];
log.error(json);
return {
urls: json
};
});
Log output
1 element in multifieldpanel
jcr node variable content
definitions: {"listText": "facebook", "listPath": "/content/en"}
log output
{"linkText":"facebook","linkPath":"/content/en"}
Multiple elements in multifieldpanel
jcr node variable content
definitions: {"listText": "facebook", "listPath": "/content/en"},{"listText": "google", "listPath": "/content/en"}
log output
[Ljava.lang.String;#7b086b97
Conclusion
Once the multifieldpanel has multiple components and stores it, when accessing the property the node returns the String hashcode instead of the value of the property.
A colleague has pointed out that I should use the MultiFieldPanelFunctions class to access the properties, but we are using HTML+Sightly+js and are trying to avoid .jsp files at all cost. In JavaScript, this function is not available. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this issue?
That is because, when there is a single item in the multifield, it returns a String, where as it returns a String[] when there is more than a single item configured.
Use the following syntax to read the property as a String array always.
var json = granite.resource.properties[CONST.PROP_URLS] || [];
Additionally, you can also use TypeHints to make sure your dialog saves the value as String[] always, be it single item or multiple items that is configured.
Don't forget that the use() in JS is compiled into Java Byte code and if you are reading Java "primitives", make sure you convert them to JS types. It's part of the Rhino subtleties.
On another note, I tend to not use the granite.* because they are not documented no where, I use the Sightly global objects instead https://docs.adobe.com/content/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/sightly/global-objects.html
To access properties, I use properties.get("key")
Hope this help.

Problem importing ZEXP files programmatically

I'm developing a Plone Product that needs to import objects programmatically previously exported to ZEXP files. It's working perfectly, except the navigation bar. When one object is imported, it does so correctly, but the navication bar is not updated. The object can be accessed through it's URL and it's parent container contents tab.
Bellow is the code I used to import the objects. It's based on zope's ObjectManager._importObjectFromFile implementation.
def importDocument( app, fileName, container ):
app._p_jar.sync()
owner = 1
connection = container._p_jar
ob = connection.importFile( config.REMOTE_DIR + fileName, customImporters={ magic: importXML, } )
id = ob.id
if hasattr(id, 'im_func'): id = id()
try:
container._setObject( id, ob, set_owner = owner, suppress_events=False )
except AttributeError:
print "AttributeError"
# Try to make ownership implicit if possible in the context
# that the object was imported into
ob = container._getOb( id )
ob.manage_changeOwnershipType( explicit = 0 )
transaction.commit()
return True
I've noticed that the _setObject implementation fires an ObjectAddedEvent event in it's code, and it's after that event that the menu gets updated when I use the ZMI interface to import an object, so I figure something is listening to this event and handling the menu, but oddly, it doesn't happen when using my code.
Generally speaking, importing zexp objects is not supported (in part due to cases like this where unexpected or unintended results may occur). If it works, great. If it doesn't, you are "on your own" and probably better off copying the Data.fs file to a new software stack.
That said, I'm not sure I understand why clear and rebuild the catalog (ZMI -> portal_catalog -> tab 'advance' -> 'clear & rebuild') is not the answer here. According to its description its job is to "walk the entire portal looking for content objects which should be indexed in the catalog and index them".
Unless I misunderstand, you've just described a situation where newly imported content "should be indexed" because it hasn't been indexed yet.
If you are worried about the length of time required to clear and rebuild, try running it from the command line with something like this:
http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plone.org/Products.PloneOrg/trunk/scripts/catalog_rebuild.py
If you are worried about crawling the whole site, then call indexObject() on each object (http://dev.plone.org/plone/browser/plone.org/Products.PloneOrg/trunk/scripts/catalog_rebuild.py#L109)
Maybe try manually rebuilding the whole catalog after the import is complete? It might give you more hints to what is wrong ...
ZMI -> portal_catalog -> tab 'advance' -> 'clear & rebuild'.
You may need to "publish" the object after import to make it visible.
Use the manage_importObject method instead.

Eclipse - Export/Save Search Results

Eclipse's Search results view is quite handy with its tree-like structure. Is there any way to export these results to a readable text format or save them to a file for later use?
I've tried using copy & paste but the resulting text format is far from readable.
You can change the mode from tree to list by click 'upper-right corner triangle' ->'show in list', then just copy all the files in the list , it will be a perfect list of search result
I'm using Eclipse Search CSV Export.
No I don't think there is a possibility to export the results yet. (Update: Now there's a suitable plugin available). But you should be able to use the eclipse search framework programmatically an export the entries by yourself.
I did not test the following snipped but implemeted a custom search that way once (using the RetrieverAction class). You should be able to listen to search result changes without the action as well:
TextSearchQueryProvider provider= TextSearchQueryProvider.getPreferred();
// your input (you'll have to implement that one I think...)
TextSearchInput input = new TextSearchQueryProvider.TextSearchInput();
ISearchQuery query= provider.createQuery(input);
ISearchResult result = query.getSearchResult();
result.addListener(new ISearchResultListener() {
public void searchResultChanged(SearchResultEvent e) {
// -> export result
}
});
// run the query
NewSearchUI.runQueryInBackground(query);
Again: I did not test that at all and don't know if there is a better approach as well..
