    Hi Jack,

     

    > tabControl.setCurrentIndex(index);

    I think that .setCurrentIndex(index) is a native method provided by the tabControl. If my above guess is correct, then the application/method may behave differently when called externally from the test script.

    I would suggest to try not to use control's internal method but switch to some tab via UI actions, like the human user does (i.e. using .Keys() or .Click() method (called asynchroniously)).

    Does it help?

Hi AlexKaras,

I tried Runner.CallObjectMethodAsync to fix my issue, but it did not work.

fake code as below:

 

//after excute below code, popup a new dialog
tabControl.setCurrentIndex(index);
//this line can not excute unless i close popup
Log.Message('done')

option 1:   endless loop

 

 


CallResultObj = Runner.CallObjectMethodAsync(tabControl, "setCurrentIndex", index);
//cause endless loop, popup dialog never displays 
while(! CallResultObj.Completed) {
    aqUtils.delay(1000);
}
Log.Message('done')

option 2:  same as before

//after excute this line, scipt blocked, can not excute Runner.CallObjectMethodAsync.
tabControl.setCurrentIndex(2);
CallResultObj = Runner.CallObjectMethodAsync(popupControl, "Close");
while(! CallResultObj.Completed) {
     aqUtils.delay(1000);
}
Log.Message('done')

Please fix me,  How to change my script?

 

Regards,
Jack
