Any suggestions for testing web application which is developed using ExtJS, preferably with TestComplete?

Hi,

It doesn't matter how exactly your web application is developed. TC works with all types of web pages via a web browser in the same way. See the Testing Web Applications help topic.

I'm also automating ExtJS web application with TestComplete.

ExtJS controls can be handled as any other. 

You may use Find or FindAll methods to get them by properties that are not changed dynamically, or create your own functions to search for necessary web elements, or  to wait until they will appear. I most cases I can obtain necessary web element just by its classame (excluding dynamic part) and tag name.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have automated by extracting unique class and object ID

How do I wait for the web page to get load now ? now I am facing problem here …I don’t want to use BuiltIn.Delay Function

Thanks for Reply

I have used the below function to achieve my goal …but WaitProperty function is always returns false

I have used other method to wait for the page – wait child and others

Please let me know how to use WaitProperty method ? need some example

Please find the sample code ----

'parentPageObject - Page Object reference

'PropertyName = Array("className")

'PropertyValue = Array(" x-panel x-panel-noborder x-border-panel")

Call VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject(PageObject,PropertyName,PropertyValue)

'Function

Sub VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject(parent,PropertyName,PropertyValue)

      'For Handing Exceptions

      On Error Resume Next

      VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject = False

      If  parent.Exists = False Then

          Log.Error("Error in VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject: Parent Object does not exists - Parent URL "+parent.url+" and looking for child - "+childStr )

      End If

    

  

            iteration = 1  'Iteration for finding each child

            Set parentObj = parent

            flag = False  ' Set the flag as true before each loop

            Do

                   

                    flag = parentObj.WaitProperty(PropertyName, PropertyValue, W_15SEC)



                    If flag = True Then

                        'Child found - so - Re-set parentObj with the childObject

                         parentObj.wait

                         VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject = True

                    Else

                        iteration = iteration + 1

                        If iteration >= MAX_ITERATION Then

                          Log.Error("Max Iteration hit, while waiting for child:" + PropertyValue +"iteration : "+CStr(iteration) + "MAX_ITERATION : "+CStr(MAX_ITERATION)+" - Parent URL "+parent.url+" and looking for child - "+PropertyValue )

                        End If 

                    End If

                Loop Until flag = True           

                

     

End Sub

Hi,

You should specify the PropertyName and PropertyValue as a strings in waitproperty method.

But you won't be able to access childs in this way. You'll be just waiting untill a specified property of the object will obtain the specified value.

As for waiting for a specific exjs control to appear I am using function like the following (JScript) to get it by its up to 3 properties:

You may convert it to VBS and pass arrays of properties and values to it instead of strings (I guess you won't need any array conversion like it is done in JScript with ConvertJScriptArray function)

function CheckChild_(Obj, TimeOut, Property1, Value1, Property2, Value2, Property3, Value3)

{

var properties, values, child, i=0;



properties = new Array(Property1, Property2, Property3);

values = new Array(Value1, Value2, Value3);

properties = ConvertJScriptArray(properties);

values = ConvertJScriptArray(values);



while(!Obj.FindChild(properties, values).Exists)

{

Delay(1000);

Obj.Refresh();

i++;

if (i>TimeOut) break;

}

Obj.Refresh();

return Obj.FindChild(properties, values);



}

Then you can get the element like this, waiting it for 60 seconds:

var Obj = CheckChild(ParentObj, 60, "className", "x-panel x-panel-noborder x-border-panel");

if (!Obj.Exists) return false;

Obj.Click();

Thanks for the help

In the Waitproperty I have used it as string also no outcome from that

As you suggested I have used the alternative method as below.

But my question is …if test complete is having built in property to wait for page? Why cant we use those methods? Instead of using the find object method?

'parentPageObject - Page Object reference

'PropertyName = Array("className")

'PropertyValue = Array(" x-panel x-panel-noborder x-border-panel")

MAX_ITERATION = 20

Call VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject(PageObject,PropertyName,PropertyValue)

Function VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject(parent,PropertyName,PropertyValue)

      'For Handing Exceptions

      On Error Resume Next

      VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject = False

      If  parent.Exists = False Then

          Log.Error("Error in VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject: Parent Object does not exists - )

      End If

    

  

            iteration = 1  'Iteration for finding each child

            Set parentObj = parent

            flag = False  ' Set the flag as true before each loop

            Do

                   

                    Set ChildObj = parentObj.FindChild(PropertyName, PropertyValue, 500)



                    If ChildObj.Exists = True Then

                        'Child found - so - Re-set parentObj with the childObject

                         parentObj.wait

                         VerifyPageDownloadForClassObject = True

                    Else

                        iteration = iteration + 1

                        If iteration >= MAX_ITERATION Then

                          Log.Error("Max Iteration hit, while waiting for child:")

                        End If 

                    End If

                Loop Until flag = True           

                

     

End Function
