eValid -- Structural Testing With DOM Commands -- Text Entry Into a JavaScript Editor Field
eValid Home
Background
The eValid DOM index/motion algorithmic/structural testing capability makes it possible
to produce robust tests which behave independently of page specifics.
Use of the DOM Manipulation Resources
leads to tests that are able to operate at a level of abstraction above that of the
usual eValid command level.
This example is one of a series that illustrate how this process works.
Please see the Guide To Examples for the complete set.
Description of Tested Feature
This example navigates to a GMAIL account and signs in, then interacts with the "Compose mail" functionalities in a separately spawned child window and signs out.
Index/Motion Command Sequence
Here is the command sequence that achieves the result:
...
IndexSet 0
IndexFindElement 0 DOWN "name" "value" "frame"
IndexMove -4
IndexElementMouseDown 0 "frame"
IndexElementClick 0 "frame"
...
IndexFindElement 0 DOWN "name" "value" "frame"
IndexFindElement 0 UP "name" "value" "frame"
IndexElementClick 0 "frame
...

How It Works
This is a rather complex example.
We are working with different layers and manipulating input fields;
i.e. we locate the "Compose mail" link and click,
then we go down and find the "Send" button and go UP to click on the image to
"Open message in new window" before proceeding to fill-in the input fields.
Please note that in the GWT environment
the values for the "id" attribute changes from session to session,
so you must choose your test pivot points wisely.
To overcome the problems induced by the dynamic behavior of the application,
i.e. instances where the orginal recorded commands
no longer reference the same session,
we use structural command equivalents that are more flexible.
