    HI,

    Alex

    Thank You For the repley But my method is different

     

    unit1 XPATH

    a="//input[@value='Login']"

     

    Unit2

    p=Sys.Browser("*").Page("*")

    arr = p.EvaluateXpath(......i need to call that unit 1 into this method.....)

    i need that Xpath to Call inside Those Braces...

    Pls Tell Me how To Do That...

    But in the link it clears that how to call methos from one unit to other but not inside a method

      Hi,

       

      > a="//input[@value='Login']"

      I am not an expert with Python, but for me your example looks like that you would like to have public method or variable in Unit1 and use it from Unit2. If the method/variable is public, it does not matter if you use it inside braces or assign to a local variable and use this variable then.

      So my current understanding is that you need to make some methods and/or variables in one unit to be public and then use them from another unit.

      I think that the referenced article describes how this can be done.

      Hi Vimalan ,

       

      in unit1 please specify the xpath as a string as mentioned below.

      Unit1:

      strSubmitButton = '//button[contains(@type, "submit")]'

      in unit2 import the unit1 and use the string mentioned in unit1 as mentioned below.

      import Unit1
  
def testingXpath():
  page = Sys.Browser("chrome").Page("https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_button_type")
  # Call the function 
  arr = page.EvaluateXPath(Unit1.strSubmitButton)
  # Check the Object and highlight the object 
  if GetVarType(arr) != varNull:
    Sys.HighlightObject(arr[0],2)

      please do let me know if this resolved your problem.

       

      Kind Regards,
