Property Checkpoints

 

 

 Hi

 

I am completely new to this so please excuse me.

I have to validate a duplicate error message that displays when there are duplicate field entries on a webpage.

I have used a property checkpoint to do this.

 Property Checkpoint  Sys.Process("iexplore", 3).Page("http://devtest/SetFieldValues.aspx?TemplID=110&FieldID=1"), "URL", cmpEqual, "http://devtest/SetFieldValues.aspx?TemplID=110&FieldID=1", ... 

 

So my predicament is that the templID does not remain constant. The first test I run passes as the template ID is 110 but the next test I run the checkpoint fails as the Template ID is now 111. Have I used the correct checkpoint? How can I change it so that no

matter what the template ID is it will validate the duplicate error message?

 

Thank you

    I would suggest searching for the field first, maybe with a Find, and assigning the value you're looking at to a variable.  Then you can do the comparison to the variable instead of with the field directly and the template id is no longer an issue.

      Thank you, what I ended up doing was this:

       

      Changing the TemplID=110&FieldID=1") into a wildcard. 

       Property Checkpoint  Sys.Process("iexplore", 3).Page("http://devtest/SetFieldValues.aspx?*")

       

      And that works for me.

       

      Thank you
