New select list code is not working(WATIR 6.8)

[rajagopal...@gmail.com]

I have written the below code

browser.select_list(:id, "ProductGroup").select!("Fire Products")

It's not choosing any option as well as it's not throwing any error. 

I know this has been done through Java script and don't know why it's not working.

To be close it 's choosing but not reflecting in the select list. But selenium select does the Job properly.  I believe after the choose, selenium is triggering something which Javascript fails to trigger that.

Out of curiosity, are you testing it on a site using React?

No I am not. Actually it's choosing but it's not reflecting, clicking the option through selenium refreshes the page and once option is selected field gets disabled but nothing is happening while I choose through JavaScript.

Ah, yes, JavaScript isn't going to fire the same events as when Watir goes through the driver end point. It doesn't sound like `#select!` will work for you.

Yes. But I wanted to tell something about the last release

set!

It's completely useful and it's brilliantly managed now by sending first character and last character through selenium. I have checked with 3 lack character and it drastically produces the result. It quickly enters all the characters meanwhile selenium takes more than 15 seconds(approximately)

select!

Here Java script is setting the value as selected

arguments[0].options[1].selected=true

and this is not equivalent to selenium because when we use selenium corresponding option is receiving the click which absolutely triggers all the actions which usually gets triggered when we choose manually. So this is not making any big difference and it's not giving good result as well. 

click!

Since you call element_call it waits for all four condition, but once after the click it is not waiting for page to load and it's expected when we click through JavaScript but we can include another statement which would help us to bring the result of  selenium click. There is a function in WATIR which will wait for page to load and this function has been written through Javascript, the function name is

 wait()

We need to call after executed the click, 

b.wait(30)

So I can write code like

b.click!
b.wait(30)

So it would be meaningfull If your newly defined function click! would include wait(default_timeout) within itself.

something like

def click!
   document.getElementId('something').click
   b.wait(30)
end

What do you say?
