Click _select dont want to open my list

Fabrice B

Hi all,

I ve a site with _select elements. i can find options, i can select with _setSelected, but i just want to see on my browse the list which normally appears when i click on this element.

I tried

_click(_select(4));
_mouseDown(_select(4), true);

but nothing happens when i do that

Any idea ?

Thank you

Fabrice

Hi Fabrice,

For normal dropdown _click(_select(4)) will not work, it will work only with _setSelected() API because it is a browser action API.

The Actions which need to be performed on the browser are dispatched to the browser by the proxy.
The remarkable thing about these Browser Action APIs, is that the parameter expressions
passed to these APIs execute on the browser and not on the proxy.

Hi Sumitra,

Thank you for this link it is interresting but a little too complex.

Just what i want to do if it is possible is : with sahi example page http://sahi.co.in/demo/selectTest.htm

On the browser page, When a click on _select("s1Id"), a list is open : i see this list. I just want to see the same thing when my playback script is launched.
To be able to do that i must to found a way to click on this "select" in my script... simply

Thank you so

Hi Fabrice,

If you are running a distributed script or a suite file then you wont be able to view the results on the controller. You can instead get the list of items from the dropdown list and perform assertion to check if the expected lists and the actual lists in the dropdown are the same.

This is the way you can do it:

_navigateTo("http://sahi.co.in/demo/selectTest.htm");
<browser>
function listElements() {
   var $items= new Array();
   $items = _select("s1Id").options;
   var $textElements = new Array();
   for(var $i=0; $i<$items.length; $i++){
       $textElements[$i] = _getText($items[$i]);
   }
return $textElements;
}
</browser>
var $expected = new Array("", "o1", "o2", "o3");
_set($elements, listElements());
_assertEqual($expected, $elements);
