I'm using Selenium IDE to create my tests,I am testing a ticketing system ,in one of my case i want the total count of the new listed tickets,i tried commands like "storeAllLinks" ,"storeAllFields" but i didnt get the count i needed .is there any way to get the count,please help me out.
The storeAllLinks and storeAllFields return arrays. You can use storeEval to run a .length with JavaScript on the array to count the number of items. Use the stored value as you wish, in this case I just write it out to the IDE console.
<tr>
<td>storeAllLinks</td>
<td>aLinks</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeEval</td>
<td>storedVars['aLinks'].length</td>
<td>numberOfLinks</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${numberOfLinks}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>

I'm using jQuery Footable V3 and trying to using the class="" attribute to but when the table is initialized the class attr desappear
Here is my example
<table class="table footable " data-page-size="20" data-paging="true" data-filtering="true" data-sorting="true" ">
<thead>
<tr>
<th data-type="number" data-breakpoints="all" >ID</th>
<th data-sortable="false" data-filterable="false" data-formatter="formatter">X</th>
<th data-type="text" data-sortable="true"><?=_("Descripción")?></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr class="danger">
<td>1111111111111</td>
<td>1111111111111</td>
<td>1111111111111</td> </tbody> </table>
Not only class attributes are removed from static tables (where HTML was already created before footable() call) but also HTML inside TD (links, images etc.) with current version 3.0.1.
The current FT 3 documentation is misleading concerning "static" tables, partially wrong.
Have a look at Github issues. You'll find some related to your question.
The best way to avoid this behavior is to load table rows and columns via JSON strings e.g. created with PHP.
Or to use workarounds. Use attributes like data-myclass="danger" and convert it via JQuery to class attribute after FT has been initialized. Sometimes slow!
Or use FT 2 until developers post a statement or maybe new version 3.
I am doing some test with Selenium IDE but I want to enter a value and get it after, is it possible ?
I have already tested the command store but it's not what I want...
Thanks
Get the text and store in a variable:
<tr>
<td>open</td>
<td>http://cnn.com</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeText</td>
<td>//h2[#class="banner-text banner-text--natural"]</td>
<td>buttonText</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${buttonText}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
I am very new to selenium ide,How can we read excelsheet data in selenium IDE. I have searched in google but not found particular links which I wanted .I got one link where they are reading excelsheet using eclipse, junit,testNG etc. Is it possible to read data of excelsheet in selenium ide and use that data in selenium ide test cases and also i want to export my test suit result in excelsheet.
Please reply
Thank you
Though I'm late to the show, I hope the following instructions will at least be of some use to anyone looking to automate part of their workflow. The method detailed below will allow automated web form entry from data in a CSV file using only Selenium IDE.
What you'll need: 1.) Selenium IDE 2.) CSV File Reader plugin // This can be acquired at seleniumhq.org/download then proceed to download at Github 3.) Selblocks // a language extension which permits use of conditonals & looping
Now that you have the necessary tools, fire up Firefox and navigate to your Selenium IDE options. You'll want to copy the path of the File Reader (.js) to Selenium Core Extensions to enable use. With that out of the way, verify that Selblocks installed without issue by typing in "while"; if this command is recognized (i.e. auto-completes/has a reference description) then all went well. Now verify that the File reader plugin commands are accessible by typing in "readCSV"; again if it auto-completes the command that means you're good to go.
Your target for the readCSV command is the path to your file (ex: file:\C:/Test.csv). To read the entire contents of the csv file, you'll need a simple while loop. Here's a sample framework:
...
<tr>
<td>store</td>
<td>4</td>
<td>loop</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>store</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>p</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>while</td>
<td>${p}<${loop}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>open</td>
<td>https://automatestuff.com/go </td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>readCSV</td>
<td>file:\C:/Test.csv</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeCellValue</td>
<td>SomeData</td>
<td>${p},1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeCellValue</td>
<td>MoreData</td>
<td>${p},2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${SomeData}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${MoreData}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeEval</td>
<td>${p}+1</td>
<td>p</td>
</tr>
....
<tr>
<td>endWhile</td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
...
Your target value (in this example, 4) for the first store command will vary given the size of your dataset. The while expression will run through your data until it evaluates to false. In this example, I have data being read from column 1, row 1 (and so on) and column 2, but it's possible to configure more or less.
Anyway, I hope that's clear and gets you on your way to automating the mundane bits of your workflow.
You can probably hack together something for this that uses javascript to read in files, but I think you should question WHY you want to do it this way instead. Why do you need excel files or why are you limited to IDE testing?
But maybe some help on excel files & javascript: How to read an excel file contents on client side?
---Jump down to my edit with a simplistic example---
I have searched Ad Nauseum, and spent hours getting this close, but still not solving my automation problem.
Here's the thing I convert the local paper from the print edition to the online edition through PDF's, the content gets pushed to the website and is not live, until I go in and edit some settings, a lot of these are redundant. so if I can get past this one point I'm golden and can shave literally hours off of the time it takes to do this work.
The paper has twenty or thirty writers, and the one_off_byline can vary a bit here is some examples.
id=id_one_off_byline value="Michael Reid" however it may also look like the these next two or some variation thereoff even.
id=id_one_off_byline value="By Michael Reid"
id=id_one_off_byline value="By Michael Reid - Your Daily Paper"
I have used storeTextPresent to find Michael on the page. however the problem is there is another select value box on the page that contains every writers name in a selection box, which is what I'm actually trying to populate. So here is what I have
<tr>
<td>storeTextPresent</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
<td>IsTextAppears</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>gotoIf</td>
<td>${isTextAppears}</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeTextPresent</td>
<td>Graham</td>
<td>IsTextAppears</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>gotoIf</td>
<td>${isTextAppears}</td>
<td>Graham</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>label</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>label</td>
<td>Graham</td>
</tr>
Another way to phrase this I hope___
Form Field 1 (ignore syntax, I'm just setting up an example here) the id= is the important part in the two form fields.
<select name="select" id="pick_animal" value="">
< option="the fast cat" id="1">
< option="the fast dog" id="2">
</select>
Form Field 2
<input type="text" id="some_animal" value="the fast cat from dover">
I need to detect that id="some_animal" contains cat
so I can perform an action on the correct option in field 1.
I can do the second part just fine, I just can't detect "cat" in only the input with id "some_animal"
storeTextPresent just looks for cat to exist anywhere on the page. ugh!!
<tr>
<td>storeTextPresent</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
<td>IsTextAppears</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>gotoIf</td>
<td>${isTextAppears}==Jeff</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>goto</td>
<td>END</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>label</td>
<td>Jeff</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>something</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>label</td>
<td>END</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
Try like this.
I am using SIDE 1.3.0 along with FF 6.0.2.
I stored a string using store text command which contains a "URL" by using the following command.
storeText
which results as
MyCode = "<iframe src="http://myportal.com/mysales/Agent/index/4eb29642ce24e8.22143850/embedded" height="650" width="605" frameBorder="0"></iframe>"
I need to have only the URL part in another variable from the string above "http://myportal.com/mysales/Agent/index/4eb29642ce24e8.22334455/embedded"
in order to proceed with the remaining test case. Thanks in advance.
Something like:
<tr>
<td>storeEval</td>
<td>'${MyCode}'.replace(/.*src="(.*?)".*/, $1)</td>
<td>url</td>
</tr>
This will use JavaScript to set a variable called url to the value of the src attribute within your MyCode variable.
The first command below stores the href attribute of any element, you can modify it to your needs.
The third command uses javascript to get the pathname attribute of the DOM object.
Hope this answers your question.
If you open the IDE click on the source tab in the main window and copy and paste the code below between the tags, you'll be able to run the test on this page, or any other stack overflow page.
<tr>
<td>storeAttribute</td>
<td>css=.profile-link#href</td>
<td>href</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${href}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>storeEval</td>
<td>this.browserbot.getUserWindow().document.getElementsByClassName('profile-link')[0].pathname</td>
<td>pathname</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${pathname}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
