Retrieves the message of a JavaScript alert generated during the previous action, or fail if there were no alerts.
Getting an alert has the same effect as manually clicking OK. If an alert is generated but you do not consume it with getAlert, the next Selenium action will fail.
Under Selenium, JavaScript alerts will NOT pop up a visible alert dialog.
Selenium does NOT support JavaScript alerts that are generated in a page‘s onload() event handler. In this case a visible dialog WILL be generated and Selenium will hang until someone manually clicks OK.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 212
212: def alert
213: string_command "getAlert"
214: end
Returns the IDs of all windows that the browser knows about.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 397
397: def all_window_ids
398: string_array_command "getAllWindowIds"
399: end
Returns the names of all windows that the browser knows about.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 403
403: def all_window_names
404: string_array_command "getAllWindowNames"
405: end
Returns the titles of all windows that the browser knows about.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 409
409: def all_window_titles
410: string_array_command "getAllWindowTitles"
411: end
Returns a string representation of the network traffic seen by the browser, including headers, AJAX requests, status codes, and timings. When this function is called, the traffic log is cleared, so the returned content is only the traffic seen since the last call.
The network traffic is returned in the format it was requested. Valid values are: :json, :xml, or :plain.
Warning: For browser_network_traffic to work you need to start your browser session with the option "captureNetworkTraffic=true", which will force ALL traffic to go to the Remote Control proxy even for more efficient browser modes like `*firefox` and `*safari`.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 425
425: def browser_network_traffic(format = :plain)
426: raise "format must be :plain, :json, or :xml" \
427: unless [:plain, :json, :xml].include?(format)
428:
429: remote_control_command "captureNetworkTraffic", [format.to_s]
430: end
Allows choice of a specific XPath libraries for Xpath evualuation in the browser (e.g. to resolve XPath locators).
`library_name’ can be:
* :ajaxslt : Google's library
* :javascript-xpath : Cybozu Labs' faster library
* :default : Selenium default library.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 439
439: def browser_xpath_library=(library_name)
440: raise "library name must be :ajaxslt, :javascript-xpath, or :default" \
441: unless [:ajaxslt, 'javascript-xpath''javascript-xpath', :default].include?(library_name)
442: remote_control_command "useXpathLibrary", [library_name.to_s]
443: end
Returns whether a toggle-button (checkbox/radio) is checked. Fails if the specified element doesn‘t exist or isn‘t a toggle-button.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 189
189: def checked?(locator)
190: boolean_command "isChecked", [locator,]
191: end
Clicks on a link, button, checkbox or radio button.
‘locator’ is an element locator
Using ‘options’ you can automatically wait for an event to happen after the click. e.g.
Using options you can also define an explicit timeout (:timeout_in_seconds key). Otherwise the default driver timeout is used.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 140
140: def click(locator, options={})
141: remote_control_command "click", [locator,]
142: wait_for options
143: end
Retrieves the message of a JavaScript confirmation dialog generated during the previous action.
By default, the confirm function will return true, having the same effect as manually clicking OK. This can be changed by prior execution of the chooseCancelOnNextConfirmation command.
If an confirmation is generated but you do not consume it with getConfirmation, the next Selenium action will fail.
NOTE: under Selenium, JavaScript confirmations will NOT pop up a visible dialog.
NOTE: Selenium does NOT support JavaScript confirmations that are generated in a page‘s onload() event handler. In this case a visible dialog WILL be generated and Selenium will hang until you manually click OK.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 238
238: def confirmation
239: string_command "getConfirmation"
240: end
Whether a confirmation has been auto-acknoledged (i.e. confirm() been called)
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 217
217: def confirmation?
218: boolean_command "isConfirmationPresent"
219: end
Create a new cookie whose path and domain are same with those of current page under test, unless you specified a path for this cookie explicitly.
‘nameValuePair’ is name and value of the cookie in a format "name=value" ‘optionsString’ is options for the cookie. Currently supported options include ‘path’, ‘max_age’ and ‘domain’. the optionsString‘s format is "path=/path/, max_age=60, domain=.foo.com". The order of options are irrelevant, the unit of the value of ‘max_age’ is second. Note that specifying a domain that isn‘t a subset of the current domain will usually fail.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 368
368: def create_cookie(name_value_pair, options="")
369: if options.kind_of? Hash
370: options = options.keys.collect {|key| "#{key}=#{options[key]}" }.sort.join(", ")
371: end
372: remote_control_command "createCookie", [name_value_pair,options,]
373: end
Delete a named cookie with specified path and domain. Be careful; to delete a cookie, you need to delete it using the exact same path and domain that were used to create the cookie. If the path is wrong, or the domain is wrong, the cookie simply won‘t be deleted. Also note that specifying a domain that isn‘t a subset of the current domain will usually fail.
Since there‘s no way to discover at runtime the original path and domain of a given cookie, we‘ve added an option called ‘recurse’ to try all sub-domains of the current domain with all paths that are a subset of the current path. Beware; this option can be slow. In big-O notation, it operates in O(n*m) time, where n is the number of dots in the domain name and m is the number of slashes in the path.
‘name’ is the name of the cookie to be deleted ‘optionsString’ is options for the cookie. Currently supported options include ‘path’, ‘domain’ and ‘recurse.’ The optionsString‘s format is "path=/path/, domain=.foo.com, recurse=true". The order of options are irrelevant. Note that specifying a domain that isn‘t a subset of the current domain will usually fail.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 388
388: def delete_cookie(name, options="")
389: if options.kind_of? Hash
390: ordered_keys = options.keys.sort {|a,b| a.to_s <=> b.to_s }
391: options = ordered_keys.collect {|key| "#{key}=#{options[key]}" }.join(", ")
392: end
393: remote_control_command "deleteCookie", [name,options,]
394: end
Verifies that the specified element is somewhere on the page.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 155
155: def element?(locator)
156: boolean_command "isElementPresent", [locator,]
157: end
Gets the (whitespace-trimmed) value of an input field (or anything else with a value parameter). For checkbox/radio elements, the value will be "on" or "off" depending on whether the element is checked or not.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 176
176: def field(locator)
177: string_command "getValue", [locator,]
178: end
Simulates the user clicking the "back" button on their browser. Using ‘options’ you can automatically wait for an event to happen after the click. e.g.
Using options you can also define an explicit timeout (:timeout_in_seconds key). Otherwise the default driver timeout is used.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 338
338: def go_back(options={})
339: remote_control_command "goBack"
340: wait_for options
341: end
Returns the result of evaluating the specified JavaScript snippet whithin the browser.
The snippet may have multiple lines, but only the result of the last line will be returned.
Note that, by default, the snippet will run in the context of the "selenium" object itself, so this will refer to the Selenium object. Use window to refer to the window of your application, e.g. window.document.getElementById(‘foo’) If you need to use a locator to refer to a single element in your application page, you can use this.browserbot.findElement("id=foo") where "id=foo" is your locator.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 275
275: def js_eval(script)
276: string_command "getEval", [script,]
277: end
Returns the absolute URL of the current page.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 30
30: def location
31: string_command "getLocation"
32: end
Retrieves the message of a JavaScript question prompt dialog generated during the previous action.
Successful handling of the prompt requires prior execution of the answerOnNextPrompt command. If a prompt is generated but you do not get/verify it, the next Selenium action will fail.
NOTE: under Selenium, JavaScript prompts will NOT pop up a visible dialog.
NOTE: Selenium does NOT support JavaScript prompts that are generated in a page‘s onload() event handler. In this case a visible dialog WILL be generated and Selenium will hang until someone manually clicks OK.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 260
260: def prompt
261: string_command "getPrompt"
262: end
Set the Remote Control timeout (as opposed to the client side driver timeout). This timout specifies the amount of time that Selenium Core will wait for actions to complete.
The default timeout is 30 seconds. ‘timeout’ is a timeout in seconds, after which the action will return with an error
Actions that require waiting include "open" and the "waitFor*" actions.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 286
286: def remote_control_timeout_in_seconds=(timeout_in_seconds)
287: remote_control_command "setTimeout", [timeout_in_seconds * 1000,]
288: end
Returns the text from a cell of a table. The cellAddress syntax tableLocator.row.column, where row and column start at 0.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 294
294: def table_cell_text(tableCellAddress)
295: string_command "getTable", [tableCellAddress,]
296: end
Return the text content of an HTML element (rendered text shown to the user). Works for any HTML element that contains text.
This command uses either the textContent (Mozilla-like browsers) or the innerText (IE-like browsers) of the element, which is the rendered text shown to the user.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 19
19: def text(locator)
20: string_command "getText", [locator,]
21: end
Determines if the specified element is visible. An element can be rendered invisible by setting the CSS "visibility" property to "hidden", or the "display" property to "none", either for the element itself or one if its ancestors. This method will fail if the element is not present.
‘locator’ is an element locator
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 166
166: def visible?(locator)
167: boolean_command "isVisible", [locator,]
168: end
Flexible wait semantics. ait is happening browser side. Useful for testing AJAX application.
Using options you can also define an explicit timeout (:timeout_in_seconds key). Otherwise the default driver timeout is used.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 81
81: def wait_for(options)
82: if options[:wait_for] == :page
83: wait_for_page options[:timeout_in_seconds]
84: elsif options[:wait_for] == :ajax
85: wait_for_ajax options
86: elsif options[:wait_for] == :element
87: wait_for_element options[:element], options
88: elsif options[:wait_for] == :no_element
89: wait_for_no_element options[:element], options
90: elsif options[:wait_for] == :text
91: wait_for_text options[:text], options

98: select_window options[:window] if options[:select]
99: elsif options[:wait_for] == :value
100: wait_for_field_value options[:element], options[:value], options
101: elsif options[:wait_for] == :no_value

103: elsif options[:wait_for] == :condition
104: wait_for_condition options[:javascript], options[:timeout_in_seconds]
105: end
106: end
Runs the specified JavaScript snippet repeatedly until it evaluates to "true". The snippet may have multiple lines, but only the result of the last line will be considered.
Note that, by default, the snippet will be run in the runner‘s test window, not in the window of your application. To get the window of your application, you can use the JavaScript snippet selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow(), and then run your JavaScript in there
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 310
310: def wait_for_condition(script, timeout_in_seconds = nil)
311: remote_control_command "waitForCondition", [script, (timeout_in_seconds || default_timeout_in_seconds) * 1000,]
312: end
Waits for a new page to load.
Selenium constantly keeps track of new pages loading, and sets a "newPageLoaded" flag when it first notices a page load. Running any other Selenium command after turns the flag to false. Hence, if you want to wait for a page to load, you must wait immediately after a Selenium command that caused a page-load.
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 44
44: def wait_for_page(timeout_in_seconds=nil)
45: actual_timeout = timeout_in_seconds || default_timeout_in_seconds
46: remote_control_command "waitForPageToLoad", [actual_timeout * 1000,]
47: end
Waits for a popup window to appear and load up.
window_id is the JavaScript window "name" of the window that will appear (not the text of the title bar) timeout_in_seconds is a timeout in seconds, after which the action will return with an error
# File lib/selenium/client/idiomatic.rb, line 54
54: def wait_for_popup(window_id, timeout_in_seconds=nil)
55: actual_timeout = timeout_in_seconds || default_timeout_in_seconds
56: remote_control_command "waitForPopUp", [window_id, actual_timeout * 1000 ,]
57: end
