Finding object by using dynamic xpath, using Partial Content text

[muhammadA]

Hi all,

I have following dynamic xpath's

.//*[@id='1509527131388-grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='1509528020936-grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='1509528970483-grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='1509528970483-grid-container']/div[2]/div

I am trying to find the object by

var obj = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").FindChildByXPath(".//*[@id=150952'" + * + "'-grid-container']/div[2]/div]");

showing as syntax error. Can you please help me to find the error

this is website I am trying to get the grid values from

[Marsha_R]

FindChildByXPath(".//*[@id=150952'" + * + "'-grid-container']/div[2]/div]")

You have three single quotes in there, one on each side of  + * + and one after -grid-container.  Do you need to match the one after -grid-container or take it out?

Hi Marsha,

.//*[@id='15095 "27131388" -grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='15095 "28020936" -grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='15095 "28970483" -grid-container']/div[2]/div
.//*[@id='15095 "28970483"-grid-container']/div[2]/div

The one in quatations is keeping changing , I want everything else into I want find the object containing

.//*[@id='15095 "*******"-grid-container']/div[2]/div.

Please verify http://ui-grid.info/

I am trying to get the Values from the upper grid present in the page.

See attached.  I have marked the matching pairs of quotes in blue and the mismatched one in red.   

You need another single quote to match the one marked in red.  I believe it needs to go here

id='150952

Thanks Marsha. Still have the same issue 

  var obj = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").FindChildByXPath(".//*[@id='150952'" + * + "'-grid-container']/div[2]/div]");

Hi,

XPath won't recognize "*" as a wildcard.

You should use another approach. E.g. using the contains() function:

.//div[contains(@id, "150952") and contains(@id, "grid-container")]

I am trying to

Angualr UI grid

I am trying to get the values of the upper grid. I need to capture those values from the table and verify them with the values in Excel sheet in Test complete.

I used all the three types of finding the object,none of them worked.  Please verify following script and let me know where I am going wrong.

Thank you for co operation in advance

function VerifyGridValue(textValue)

{

  Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").Wait("10000");

var obj = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").FindChildByXPath(".//*[@id='150952'" + * + "'-grid-container']/div[2]/div]");

//Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").FindChildByXPath("//*[@class='" + ui-grid-canvas + "']")

//var obj = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*").FindChildByXPath(".//*div[contains(@id, "150952") and contains(@id, "grid-container")]/div[2]/div]");

 var val=obj.wValue(0,1);

switch (true)

{

    case IsSupported(obj, val) == true && textValue :

          Log.Checkpoint("Value match as expected");

          break;

       default:

          Log.Error("Text values do not match!");

}

        Log.CallStackSettings;

}
