Searching for text

kinsleyd · ‎02-02-2010

I'm searching for an effecient way to look at the loaded page and search for some text, specifically the text one can expect if the page returns a javascript error or finds no matching documents, which the developers have made global. The trouble is I can not predict exactly where it'll be on the page. I've tried using an if .... exists statement, but then I get a bunch of errors as its trying to find the frame I typically see the text appearing in which isn't there if the page does load/present documents properly, if that makes sense. My next thought was FindAllChildren, but then I'd find myself looking at an array, which I guess is possible, but seems cludgey somehow. Any thoughts?

TIA - Dave

Got the findallchildren logic working, but still seems cludgey

Hi,

I have three TABS but these three tabs are in one Cell, now i want to click on different tabs ar per need basis, one way is to hard code the position of each tab which i dont want to do, other way is to search the Text and click it, but as i mentioned these tabs are in one Cell i am unable to write down a routine which can search the text inside the cell and click on it. I have tried page.FindChild("innerText","Text",100), page.FindChild("NativeWebObject.innerText","text",100) but nothing worked.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Muhammad,

Please post here the HTML code of this cell. You can get it via its 'outerHTML' parameter.

BTW, please note that you can call the 'FindChild' method of the cell object. This will work faster and more reliable.

Hi Muhammad,

Thanks for sending the code. If you look at the code of the objects you need to work with, you will see that there are extra spaces that must be taken into account when searching for an object:

 <TSNS:Tab>PL      </TSNS:Tab>

 <TSNS:Tab>EN      </TSNS:Tab>

 <TSNS:Tab>CON     </TSNS:Tab>

You can do this by replacing the extra spaces with the wildcard character:

  var obj = page.FindChild("innerText","EN*",100);

  obj.Click();

Thanks David, but it does'nt work, reason: InnerText contains text of that tab which is currently active, means in my case by default PL tab is active so innerText contains PL, if you want to clikc on CON or any other Tab it displays error message "unable to find object" because innerText does not contain that Text. I have tried to use innerHTM but no improvement.

Hi Muhammad,

I am guessing that you sent the server-side code of the page. TestComplete works with the client-side version of the application, so could you please send me the client-side HTML code? You can get it by executing this code in TestComplete:

var obj = page.FindChild("NativeWebObject.id", "tbsBudget", 100);

Log.Message("See HTML in Remarks", obj.outerHTML);

Please send me the HTML code posted to the Remarks pane.

Hi Muhammad,

Did you open the tested page in Internet Explorer and assign the Page object to the 'page' variable before executing the code? If you did, save the HTML code of the entire page and send it as a separate file. You can use the following code:

;

  Log.Message("See HTML in Remarks", htmlObj.outerHTML);

Hi David,

I am attaching two OuterHTML codes, one of the Cell Object and One of the Panel/Page object.

Actually that Cell don't have any ID so when getting OuterHTML by specifying any condition it gives Object Not Found Error, however i have recorded the steps and then call your suggested routine to get the OuterHTML for that cell/object.

Secondly Page does not have the OuterHTML property, all the objects are under a Panel so i have posted Panel OuterHTML.

Regards!
