Re: selenium test for fallback page loaded from app cache when server is unavailable

[Brad Pitcher]

Are you having the selenium test go to online.html first like in your manual test?
Maybe you need to have selenium hit offline.html first and cache that page?

Hi. I haven't been able to figure this one out. Trying to write an automated test that uses selenium.webdriver.firefox.webdriver

The manifest file has
FALLBACK:
/online.html /offline.html

So that at /online.html the browser displays the cached copy of /offline.html when the server is offline

Also, to simulate server unavailable for testing
/online.html returns a 200 response
/online.html?offline=1 returns 503

This all works fine when I browse manually
/online.html displays "I am online"
/online.html?offline=1 displays "I am a cached page"

I want the selenium test to get /online.html?offline=1 and see "I am a cached page" /offline.html
But it's only showing a blank page
I think it's stopping at the 503 and not loading from the app cache

    def test_offline(self):
        """Simulate site being offline"""
        self.selenium.get('%s%s' % (self.live_server_url, '/online.html?offline=1'))
        self.assertIn('cached page', self.selenium.page_source)

How can I make it test this? Thanks.
