AOST - Beginner

[poweroftesting]

Hi,

I am a beginner to Tellurium but am a Selenium user, I am doing
something fundamentally wrong
trying to script Tellurium tests.

Where can I find some complete sample code for creating Tellurium
Test cases?
I am using Eclipse IDE to develop my tests. I am able to develop
Selenium Tests using JUnit.
But when I create GoogleStartPage.java I get syntax errors. My source
is below (taken from the
project home). Some of the errors I have documented in the source
below as comments.
I am using tellurium-core.0.6.0.RC1.jar in my class path. Any help is
greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Manoj

---------------------------------------------
GoogleStartPage.java-------------------------------------------------


import org.tellurium.dsl.DslContext;

class GoogleStartPage extends DslContext
{ // I am groovy-1.6.3.jar in class
path and it
//
wants me to declare this class as abstract
//
or add required setMetaClass abstract
//
methods.
public void defineUi() {
ui.Container(uid: "GooglePage")
{ // Unable to recognize 'ui'
which pkg should I
//
import?
InputBox(uid: "InputBox", locator: "//input
[@name='q']") // uid(String) undefined
Button(uid: "GoogleSearch", locator: "//input
[@name='btnG']") // change to getLocator()
Button(uid: "FeelingLucky", locator: "//input
[@name='btnI']")
}
}

public void doGoogleSearch(String input){
type "GooglePage.InputBox", input
click "GooglePage.GoogleSearch"
waitForPageToLoad 30000
}

public void doFeelingLucky(String input){
type "GooglePage.InputBox", input
click "GooglePage.FeelingLucky"
waitForPageToLoad 30000
}
}

Sounds like a Groovy version problem. Could you try Groovy 1.6.0 first?

The best way to create Tellurium project is to use Tellurium Maven archetypes, please see

http://code.google.com/p/aost/wiki/TelluriumMavenArchetypes

for details. The generated project includes a Tellurium test case for Google start page.

If you are not familiar with Maven, you can download one of our Reference projects.

Or you can download the demo file for the presentation "10 minutes to Tellurium" from

http://tellurium-users.googlegroups.com/web/demo.tar.gz?gda=iDKIRz0AAAD5mhXrH3CK0rVx4StVj0LYX-G77OBBcii9dCDKObpTUBlX3Fx9UEqM2hr2qeRv5GDlNv--OykrTYJH3lVGu2Z5&gsc=gTmdLSEAAAA1VzjU--gqc9_cubhWdIxHTSGPmsFZFSPyaHoWbGfcNUzfKN-m9S9niuHrq-IEXAE

Here is the introduction of the demo project

http://code.google.com/p/aost/wiki/TenMinutesToTellurium

Let us know if you still have problem to compile.

Thanks,

Jian

// Unable to recognize 'ui'

Seems the tellurium core jar is not picked up by Eclipse.

You need to check your class path to make sure Tellurium Core jar is
in the project class path.

Here is the introduction of Groovy Eclipse plugin,

http://groovy.codehaus.org/Eclipse+Plugin

Have you installed that correctly? What is your version of Eclipse?

If you still have problem, I will try to reproduce it using the same
settings as yours.

Thanks,

Jian

Hi John,
Thanks for point this out. The Groovy plugin did not get installed correctly. I am using Eclipse 3.x.
I have re-installed it and will try again. Also, I downloaded the demo zip which has what I need. I
also found out that the *.groovy needs to be compiled using "groovyc" so will do that and see how
far I get. If I need any more help will holler .. thanks a lot.. this is a really cool framework long needed.
I am a advocate of selenium and now once I get to experience Tellurium will follow it religiously.

Keep up the gr8 work.

Manoj

HI,
Ok... I am much further along now... just need to run the tests. When I try to run via Eclipse as JUnit test
I get this msg : no tests found with test runner 'JUnit 4' .. I also tried with 'JUnit 3'. What else am I missing.
Thanks for your patience.

Hi Manoj,

Tellurium is still built on top of Selenium at the current stage and you should be able to get familiar with Tellurium pretty soon since you are good at Selenium.

Yes, you need to use groovyc to compile groovy files. If you look at our core build.xml and you should know how to do that using Ant. For Maven, it is handled by GMaven, but GMaven still has some problem and that is why I added the maven-ant-run plugin to customize it a bit using Ant.

Seems the reference project is a good starting point for you because it includes Intellij, Netbeans, and Eclipse project files as well as Ant and Maven build scripts. You can load it up using Eclipse directly once you have Groovy plugin installed.

Thanks,

Jian

Hi,

Below is the dump from the session.. I tried version 0.6.0 and 0.7.0-SNAPSHOT i keep getting the NotFoundException.

Since Tellurium artifacts are hosted on Kungfuters.org, not repo1.maven.org, You need to add the Kungfuters.org repositories 

to your HOME/.m2/settings.xml or you project super POM file, i.e.,

                 <repository>  
                    <id>kungfuters-public-snapshots-repo</id>

                    <name>Kungfuters.org Public Snapshot Repository</name>
                    <releases>          

                        <enabled>false</enabled>
                    </releases>         

                    <snapshots>         
                        <enabled>true</enabled> 

                    </snapshots>        
                    <url>http://kungfuters.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots</url>

                </repository>   
                <repository>    
                    <id>kungfuters-public-releases-repo</id>

                    <name>Kungfuters.org Public Releases Repository</name>
                    <releases>          

                        <enabled>true</enabled> 
                    </releases>         

                    <snapshots>         
                        <enabled>false</enabled>

                    </snapshots>        
                    <url>http://kungfuters.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases</url>

                </repository>   

Alternatively, you can specify the Maven repository directly in Maven command without the above step.

For example, to use 0.6.0 release, use the following command,

mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=your_group_id -DartifactId=your_artifact_id -DarchetypeArtifactId=tellurium-junit-archetype -DarchetypeGroupId=tellurium -DarchetypeVersion=0.6.0 -DarchetypeRepository=http://kungfuters.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases

Do the same for the 0.7.0 snapshot repo.

Thanks,

Jian

[Jian Fang]

BTW, 0.7.0 snapshot may have not been uploaded. You better use the 0.6.0 release.

Thank you.. my settings.xml was name incorrectly...hence going to default repo1.

Welcome. We will upload the 0.7.0 snapshot soon because the 0.7.0 core
snapshot includes a fix for
the hasCssClass method.

0.7.0-SNAPSHOT Maven archetypes have been uploaded.

For example, to create a TestNG project, use the following Maven command:

 mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=test -DartifactId=testngexample -DarchetypeArtifactId=tellurium-testng-archetype -DarchetypeGroupId=tellurium -DarchetypeVersion=0.7.0-SNAPSHOT -DarchetypeRepository=http://kungfuters.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots

Simliarly, use the following command for a new JUnit 4 project,

mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=test -DartifactId=junitexample -DarchetypeArtifactId=tellurium-junit-archetype -DarchetypeGroupId=tellurium -DarchetypeVersion=0.7.0-SNAPSHOT -DarchetypeRepository=http://kungfuters.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots

Please let us know if you run into any problems.

Tellurium.

We also noticed the same problem before. Seems Maven 2.0.10 is not fully compatible with Maven 2.0.9 and Tellurium is based on Maven 2.0.9. Please use Maven 2.0.9 for the time being. We will try to upgrade to Maven 2.0.10 later. I will create an issue for that.

It turned out that we forgot to add the getValue() method to the checkbox object. I just fixed it and published the jar to our Maven repo.
Please update your Tellurium core jar Maven repo. Be aware that you should use 0.7.0-SNAPSHOT.

Let us know if you have any further problems.

                Span(uid: "mlove", clocator: [tag: "span", text: "Recommendations"])
            }               
 }

When I try to isElementPresent on 'mbrhome.navbar.queue' I get a failure... I tried the Span() definition also and it did not work. Any help greatly appreciated. I Know I could do a List array and click on navbar[i].
But if the order changes of the tab then that will not work.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Manoj

Sorry, there was an extra "," for the Container "browser" in the last post, please remove it. Then, you can try

click "mbrhome.navbar.browse".

ui.Container(uid: "mbrhome", clocator: [tag: "body",  id: "page-MemberHome"]){
            Container(uid: "navbar", clocator: [tag: "ul", id: "primaryNav"]){

                Container(uid: "browse", clocator: [tag: "a", title: "Browse"], group: "true", respond: ["click"]){

                     Span(uid: "browseDVDs", clocator: [tag: "span", text: "Browse DVDs"])
                }

                ......

            }               
 }

Let me know if this works for you.

Hi John,

[Jian Fang]

Actually, since your URL links come with the title attribute, you do not really need to use their child attribute for locating.

For example, you can try the UI module

ui.Container(uid: "mainnav", clocator:[ tag: "div",id:"mainNavigation"]){
   Container(uid:"navtabs",clocator:[tag:"ul",id:"primaryNav"]){

       UrlLink(uid: "browse", clocator: [title: "Browse DVDs")
       UrlLink(uid: "watch", clocator: [title: "^Watch movies"]
       UrlLink(uid: "queue", clocator: [title: "Your Queue"]
   }
}

Be aware, if the title in the html may include extra character, then you should use partial matching.

Thanks,

Jian

Hi John,
   Thank u for the help... It still says element not found.

Here is the HTML again

<div id="mainNavigation">

<ul id="primaryNav" class="navigation primaryNav clearfix">

    <li id="bTab" class="navItem navItem-current">

        <a href="http://www.mysite.com/MemberHome?lnkce=sntDd&lnkctr=mhbwse" title="Browse DVDs">

            <span class="w1">

                <span class="w2">Browse DVDs</span>

            </span>

        </a>

    </li>

    <li id="wnTab" class="navItem">

        <a href="http://www.mysite.com/WiHome?lnkctr=mhWN&lnkce=sntWi" title="Watch movies instantly on your PC">
            <span class="w1">

                <span class="w2">Watch Instantly</span>

            </span>

        </a>

    </li>

    <li id="qTab" class="navItem">

        <a href="http://www.mysite.com/Queue?lnkce=sntQu&lnkctr=mhbque" title="Your Queue">

            <span class="w1">

                <span class="w2">Your Queue</span>

            </span>

        </a>

    </li>

</ul>

</div>

I modified ur module def to this

ui.Container(uid: "mainnav", clocator: [tag: "div",  id: "mainNavigation"]){

            Container(uid: "navbar", clocator: [tag: "ul", id: "primaryNav"]){

                Container(uid: "browse", clocator: [tag: "a", title: "Browse DVDs"], group: "true", respond: ["click"]){

                     Span(uid: "browseDVDs", clocator: [tag: "span", text: "Browse DVDs"])
                }

                ......

            }               
 }

click "mainnav.navbar.browse"    did not work....

I  tried this method and it seems to be working, only thing is if the order of the tabs changes then I have
re-write the instruction in the test case clicking on the tested tab...

ui.Container(uid: "mainnav", clocator:[ tag: "div",id:"mainNavigation"]){
   List(uid:"navtabs",clocator:[tag:"ul",id:"primaryNav"],separator:"li"){
       urlLink(uid:"all",clocator:[:]
   }
}

        click "mainnav.navtabs[3]"

did the trick. Now my only concern is if the order changes then what?

Regards,

Manoj

In 0.7.0, we will use attribute/alias besides the index to refer a
List element.
The same should apply to other UIs that use UI templates such as
table.
In this way, the position changes should not affect your test code any
more.
