eValid™ -- Automated Web Quality Solution Browser-Based, Client-Side, Functional Testing & Validation, Load & Performance Tuning, Page Timing, Website Analysis, and Rich Internet Application Monitoring.

Summary
This page presents eValid's initial demonstration of functional/regression testing for the SkyDrive PowerPoint application. The scripting was done by recording "from life" followed by manual script adjustment by use of eValid structural (index/motion) commands.

The scripts below are organized as follows:

• goALL.evs: This script is the "top level" script that invokes the next three in order. You could run the newppt.evs script several times, each run creating a new presentation.
• login.evs: This script accomplishes the login process.
• newppt.evs: This script creates a new PowerPoint presentation, into which it. enters "HELLO WORLD!" and "eValid Testing" followed by a notes entry "Testing Test - Hello ....".
• signout.evs: This script accomplishes the signout process.
• delete.evs: After several repetitions of goALL.evs (which means several repetitions of newppt.evs) you can optionally use this script to delete a presentation or whatever happens to be the third item in the Public folder.

Scripts
Here is the complete set of scripts used in this example.

Additional Notes

1. The above scripts were recorded from life and then augmented to handle the PowerPoint text entry area. From life commands are left in the script as comments so you can see where they were replaced/augmented.

2. Playback is slightly depending on allowing the Waits to run as recorded. An improved version of the scripts that does not depend on Waits at all is technically possible but requires finding each de-synchronization point and replacing it with the appropriate DOM processing command.

3. There is one instance of a SyncOnText for "Loading" that is followed by a SyncNotOnElementProperty for "Loading", and we have seen that if the server is very quick this sequence may not work. As written, the idea is that you DO see "Loading" and then, after a time, that phrase disappears -- a fact confirmed by the second DOM-based statement. You may be able to elide the first sync step without loss of generality.
