I am creating automation tests using selenium IDE.
I want to navigate to an url using the open command, And then click on a button on the page , so that I can edit the Record.
After Navigating to the url(hashed url) using the open command.
The Execution stops at this command.
The base url is http://test.com/ and
the url to navigate is http://test.com/#quotes/1
Most probably in the time of the question it touches this problem:
https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=5165
and there is an workaround:
Command = storeEval
Target = window.location.hash='events/5000/participants/7011'
This would be no solution for current problems with timeout, as Selenium-IDE is already in 2.xx version.

So I'm trying to build an auto-updater for my app. I've chosen the "Update downloader with silent version check". It's integrated with my launcher as well, like it can be seen in the first picture. I'd like if possible to remove the screen where the user is asked whether to launch the updater and just always execute it.

Screen to remove
My client would also like to have the auto-update process as unattended as possible. So it would need the following steps:
1) user starts launcher
2) auto-updater checks and finds new version
3) auto-updater downloads new version
4) auto-updater launches downloaded updater
5) auto-updater finishes and relaunches new version of the app
I've managed the first 4 steps but I can't manage to make it relaunch the app, or at least have an informative message saying that the user needs to relaunch it him/herself. I've added the Execute launcher action but it seems to either not launch or launch the previous version. Is there a tutorial or anything for this at it seems like my case is pretty standard? :(
Any help would be appreciated, as I've been struggling with this for a while.
Thanks
The background update functionality in install4j (since 7.0) is more suitable for your use case.
See
https://www.ej-technologies.com/products/install4j/whatsnew7.html
and search for "Background auto-update" to see screen shots.
To get started, add a "Background update downloader" application on the Installer->Screen & Actions step.
In the launcher wizard of a GUI launcher that should process scheduled update installers, go to the new "Auto-update integration" step and select the "Execute downloaded update installers at startup" check box. By default, the execution mode is set to "Unattended mode with progress dialog".
For services and command line launchers, the UpdateChecker API allows you to execute scheduled update installers programatically.
You can also execute the downloaded installer as soon as it's downloaded. The source file
samples/hello/gui/HelloGui.java
shows you how to interact with the background updater by using the API.
I have a little problem with Selenium IDE. When I open an website and it fails because of timeout, Selenium won't run the next tests where I created a while loop so it will always refresh the webpage if it's not loaded.
My question is, how can make Selenium pass on the next command if the "open" command fails for timeout. Or please suggest any other workaround in case the page is loading continuously .
Thanks, Alex
I am trying to create Dynamic Web Application in Eclipse on Google App Engine.
I have followed this tutorial exactly but whenever I Run on Server, I get the following error. I have shown both, error log and the dialog that appears when I run my project. And apparently there is no search result after Googling this error. Any help would be appreciated in this regard. Thanks.
UPDATE:
Point to note here is that if I use the tutorial available here then the project runs fine. The difference is that This way I create new project by clicking the New Web Application Project button in the toolbar:
It is because your launch configuration file is corrupt.
location: WORKSPACE/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches.
All you need to do to solve this problem is to delete the existing launch configuration (in Run > Run configurations)
More precisely: Run > Run configurations > Web Application > right click in your project's name > Delete
Currently I am developing a solution that requires interaction with external software. As a result I can only properly test it after I build the solution as a dll file.
Currently I take these steps
type 'deploytool' (to open the deployment tool)
click the button 'open project'
Find and select the project that I want to open (always in the same location with the same name but apparently matlab does not remember this)
Click the build button
Currently I do this several times per day and it is really simple, but simply annoying.
Therefore I hope that someone can give me a way to automate step 2-4, perhaps using a script?
If this is not possible I would also appreciate a way to change the default opening folder for the deployment tool.
help deploytool says you can specify the projectname and build option as a second argument:
deploytool -build projectname
I am using Eclipse/PyDev to develop a Google App Engine project called GAEServer. One of my common operations is to right click on the project and select Debug As->1 PyDev: Google App Run. Which kicks of a debug session for my application.
I would like to change the command line arguments executed when this command is invoked (to relocate where GAE local server looks for its database). This requires me to add arguments to the executed command.
If I select from the main menu: Run->Debug Configurations... there is an expandable item called PyDev Google App Run which contains a list of items:
PyDev Google App Run
GAEServer GAEServer
GAEServer GAEServer (1)
GAEServer GAEServer (2)
...
At the moment I have 19 of these which is a little surprising. If I select the first one then there is a tab where you appear to be able to add arguments (x)= Arguments but if I edit this and try to debug as again, it does not invoke GAE with the additional options, instead it creates another GAEServer GAEServer (n) with the default settings.
It may be that I have set up my project in some odd way, that I'm not understanding how this is supposed to work or that I have uncovered a bug. Can anyone help me figure out which?
Thanks in advance
Jules
The run as will really create a new run configuration... Just erase the bunch of configurations you have, run it once and edit that one.
Later ( if you followed the suggestion on http://pydev.org/manual_101_run.html ), you should be able to Ctrl+F11 to rerun the last launch done (or choose it from the menu: run > run history > previous launches: can be accessed through Alt+R, T, number of config).
