Hi,

 I was trying to run automated tests on Windows 8 but it doesn't look to be able to run on IE or Forefox, IE opens but freezes there I can't do any action on it, FF doesn't even open, Chrome looks to work perfectly.

I'm writing a decorator (to implement a Retry attributes for NUnit tests). Everything runs fine when executing with Telerik JustTest -- except:

* "Not Executed" is reported

* Stepping thru in debug, "Run" is never called

Using NUnit 2.6. I have read that Resharper has issues in this same area and there are workarounds. We run Nunit for deployment builds, and I would like to be able to run the tests in VS.

    public class RetriedTestMethod : NUnit.Core.Test
    {
        private readonly int requiredPassCount;
        private readonly int tryCount;
        private readonly NUnit.Core.Test backingTest;

        public RetriedTestMethod(NUnitTestMethod test, int tryCount, int requiredPassCount)
            : base((TestName)test.TestName.Clone())
        { //executes in debug
            backingTest = test;
            this.tryCount = tryCount;
            this.requiredPassCount = requiredPassCount;
        }
          private static bool TestFailed(TestResult result)
        {
            return result.ResultState == ResultState.Error || result.ResultState == ResultState.Failure;
        }
        public override TestResult Run(EventListener listener, ITestFilter filter)
        { //Never called
            var successCount = 0;
            TestResult failureResult = null;
            for (var i = 0; i < this.tryCount; i++)
            {
                var result = backingTest.Run(listener, filter);
                if (!TestFailed(result))
                {
                    if (i == 0)
                    {
                        return result;
                    }
                    if (++successCount >= this.requiredPassCount)
                    {
                        return result;
                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    failureResult = result;
                }
            }
            return failureResult;
        }

I attached the set of files with unit tests.

this code throws an serialization error only in FF, this works just fine in chrome/IE
                    result = Actions.InvokeScript<string>("document.activeElement.id");

error:

Recently, I was assigned to fix a test suite which would consistently fail to run all 600 tests after consecutive 5 time-out ones. Now I am quite sure the AutoRefreshDomTree and AutoWaitUntilReady could result in some dead loops by chance.

An article was published on http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/895632/Tips-with-Telerik-Trouble-shooting and I hope that could be helpful for Telerik to improve their powerful testing framework.

Hello experts,

I'm trying my first sample test for google.com. I was able to record and playback tests from Test Sturio. However, we wanted to build our own framework. So started looking at the telrik API. I was completely struck with the below issue and was not able to proceed further

{           
            Manager.LaunchNewBrowser(BrowserType.InternetExplorer);
            ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.google.com"); //Was able to open the browser
            Console.WriteLine("Title of the page :" + ActiveBrowser.PageTitle); // Able to get the title of the browser
             
            // HtmlInputText textBox = ActiveBrowser.Find.ById<HtmlInputText>("gbqfq");
            Find.ByExpression<HtmlInputText>("id=?_gbqfq"); //This is where I'm getting the System.NullReferenceException  : Object reference not set to an instance of object

}

I'm struck at this point. Need your urgent help as I need to give a POC demo.

Regards,
Kiran

Hello.

I'm trying to automate one WPF application, and I need to check if my wpf window has the correct class name. How can I do that?

 Here is the part of XAML page code (I need to get class name "Namespace.View".):

 

<WindowViewBase
    x:Class="Namespace.View"

    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">

    <!-- some controls here -->

</WindowViewBase>

I am evaluating Telerik Test Studio (http://www.telerik.com/automated-testing-tools) as a web regression tool and looking for a how-to on setting up and using of a Page Object Model environment like is possible in Selenium.

http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/PageObjects

The Telerik documentation is focused on record/playback which is very brittle, and my google searches haven't turned up relevant links.

btw, I've cross posted this on stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15034206/how-to-on-implementing-page-object-model-with-telerik-test-studio

Hello, I'm wondering what is the difference between those two methods mentioned above?  Is the .Click() method executed via Javascript?  What about the .MouseClick() method..does it not use javascript.

If I use the .MouseClick() event, does that mean that the browser has to to have top most focus on it while executing the tests?  Does that also mean that a user has to be logged in and the browser can't be minimized while the tests are running.

Please help me understand the difference at the low technical level...why would I prefer one over the other?  If I use the .MouseClick() method will I see the mouse cursor actually moving over to the UI element that it's about to interact with?

Regards,

Humberto

Hi,

I've come across this issue when running tests on our build server :

ArtOfTest.WebAii.Exceptions.UnsupportedNonInteractiveOperationException : Using the Desktop object is prohibited when running in non-interactive mode. Follow the link for more information: http://docs.telerik.com/teststudio/user-guide/knowledge-base/test-execution/no-tests-execute-on-locked-machine.aspx

I didn't tried all the solutions using Remote Desktop sessions and VNC yet.  

In the documentation page above, it is mentioned : "Any test that requires moving the mouse or sending key strokes requires an unlocked desktop."  So, what I'd like to know is what are the methods and objects I should avoid when not running on interactive mode.  

Regards,
Martin

Hello,

This is in regards to support ticket 910420.
