[Webdriver] take a substring,convert to Int , Then Assert data against DB!!!

[Rashmi]

Hi,

I have this  "Displaying 1- 20 of 50"  on UI.
Now I have to take this "50" and validate against database total count.

I assume we have to locate element (<div id="tbtext-1380" class="x-toolbar-text x-box-item x-toolbar-item x-toolbar-text-default" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px; left: 1313px; top: 13px; " tabindex="-1">Displaying 1 - 20 of 50</div>),
Then find substring of "50" ,convert into int and then Assert.

I tried a lot but couldn't figure out..
Could anybody please help me regarding this,If this is the correct approach,If yes how to go about it.Or is there any other way...

Thanks in advance
Rashmi

Rashmi, 

I am not sure what is the issue, but I am able to get my results with following code

Target Text Line on Result Page    782 items found

               WebElement searchResultCount = driver.findElement(....).gettext();

                int indexOfBlank = WebElement.getText().indexOf(" ");

String totalResultString = WebElement.getText().substring(0, indexOfBlank);

totalResult = Integer.parseInt(totalResultString);

return totalResult;

And then simple assert,

Regards,

Amit

This is basic Java, nothing to do with Selenium, off the top of my head the answer is something like this:

 

//Take the original string

String sentence = "Displaying 1- 20 of 50"

//Split it into an array based upon whitespace

String[] words = sentence.split(" ")

//Get the last element in the array (this should be 50).

String result = words[words.length - 1]

 

The reason for using length -1 is that the first element in an array is 0 not 1.

Hi Rashmi,

Just adding from where Mark left-:

Interget.parseInt(String) // To parse the string to Interger now . You can assert this.

Thanks
