I’m getting Getting undefined method `when_visible' for # (NoMethodError) when I used built –in method from PageObject Ruby gem. Here is my code:
class HomePage
include PageObject
links(:search_types, :css => ".search-type")
def select_search_type
search_types_elements.when_visible(timeout=10)
search_types_elements.find { |type| if type.text=='Resort'; type.click; break end }
end
end
Could someone please help? Thanks a lot!
Updated to reflect discussion.
page-object gem handles the plural of its basic accessors. Page-object ultimately generates
search_types_elements = #browser.find_elements(:css, ".search-type")
so you will need to follow it with something like (Updated)
search_types_elements.find { |type|
type.when_visible(timeout=10)
if type.text=='Resort'; type.click; break end
}
You should add something to the page class constructor to wait for the page to completely load. Unfortunately, there isn't a simple way to do this. Much depends on the page specifics. I usually start by waiting for the jquery queue to have zero length. Something like this:
WebDriverWait(self.selenium, 10).until(lambda s: s.execute_script("return jQuery.active == 0"))

I'm currently working on an ERB View class for a gem. With this class I would like to have some helper methods for ERB templates.
It's okay about basic helpers like h(string). I found erbh gem who help me to understand more how context works.
But now I'm trying to create a content_for method like there is in Rails or Sinatra.
On first time I was using simple Proc to capture the view block and then just calling call method to print it. It was working enough at the beginning.
But after having completed views I saw wired thinks, some content are printed multiple times.
So I take a look on the Sinatra ContentFor helper to understand how they did it and I copy some methods of this helper. I have no errors, but the block return are always empty... and I don't really know why.
My knowledge about ERB are not good enough to know how ERB buffering works.

Here a gist who explain the status of my code. I extracted the code from my library and simplified it a bit.

What I would like?
I just would like to have content_for methods works like they do with Rails and Sinatra.
Thanks!
After reading this blog article I finally found why it wasn't working. I don't know if I did it in the best way and cleaner way but it works.
So the bug was mainly from the ERB initilization. By using a property instead a local variable as eoutvar it now works.
erb = ERB.new(str, nil, "<>", "#_erbout")
I also change a bit the capture method who is used by content_for helper.
It looks like this now (gist)
def content_for(key, content = nil, &block)
block ||= proc { |*| content }
content_blocks[key.to_sym] << capture_later(&block)
end
def content_for?(key)
content_blocks[key.to_sym].any?
end
def yield_content(key, default = nil)
return default if content_blocks[key.to_sym].empty?
content_blocks[key.to_sym].map { |b| capture(&b) }.join
end
def capture(&block)
#capture = nil
#_erbout, _buf_was = '', #_erbout
result = yield
#_erbout = _buf_was
result.strip.empty? && #capture ? #capture : result
end
def capture_later(&block)
proc { |*| #capture = capture(&block) }
end
I'm include gem 'remote_table' in my Gemfile (Rails 3.1.12)
In spree admin i'd create new controller:
class Admin::XlsPriceLoadsController < Admin::BaseController
def upload
source_xls = RemoteTable.new(filename)
source_xls.each do |row|
....
end
end
end
but when this action fired, i'm see the next:
TypeError (Zip is not a module):
app/controllers/admin/xls_price_loads_controller.rb:26:in `upload'
...
when i'm explore the source_xls object, a frozen? property of them is true.
So, can any soul write me, why the parsed object is frozed?
And, if i run this code
source_xls = RemoteTable.new(filename)
source_xls.each do |row|
....
end
from lib/tasks as rake task - all work fine!
Thanks for all advice!
Whereabouts does the filename method/attribute come from? Is that something from spree? What value does it have at the point #upload is called?
Regarding
app/controllers/admin/xls_price_loads_controller.rb:26:inupload'`
What's on line 26?
If I run this simple Ruby code regularly, it works fine:
class String
def add_two
self + "2"
end
end
puts "hello".add_two
It prints "hello2" as it should. But this fails:
:ruby
class String
def add_two
self + "2"
end
end
puts "hello".add_two
This code produces an error:
NoMethodError at /
undefined method `add_two' for "hello":String
Any ideas what's wrong?
(Not sure if it matters, but I'm using HAML with Sinatra, which is running on Apache with the Passenger module.)
I would suggest that String is in another namespace and therefor another class.
What happens with that?
class ::String
I put your code as is into one of my Haml views in a Rails app and I got a different error to you:
SyntaxError at /
class definition in method body
So I wondered whether it was Haml's :ruby filter that was complaining, but since it "Parses the filtered text with the normal Ruby interpreter", it seemed unlikely. So, I searched for more info about the error and found references (see below) that led me to this, which works (but, really, should never be used):
:ruby
String.module_eval do
def add_two
self + "2"
end
end
puts "hello".add_two

I am using the page-object gem. Suppose i have a page-object on features/bussines/pages/booking_page.rb for a page like:
class Booking
include PageObject
span(:txtFirstName, :id => 'details_first_name')
end
...and i use a "tools" class located at features/support/tools.rb with something like:
class MyTools
def call_to_page_object
on Booking do |page|
puts page.txtFirstName
end
end
end
...but this approach fails because calling to the object from the class is not allowed:
undefined method `on' for #<Booking:0x108f5b0c8> (NoMethodError)
Pretty sure i'm missing some concept on the way to use the page-object from a class but don't realize whats the problem. Can you please give me an idea about what could be wrong here, please?
Thank you very much!
============================
Justin found the reason why the call to the class crash. The final class code results:
class MyTools
#Include this module so that the class has the 'on' method
include PageObject::PageFactory
def initialize(browser)
#Assign a browser object to #browser, which the 'on' method assumes to exist
#browser = browser
end
def getCurrentRewards
on Booking do |page|
rewards_text = page.rewards_amount
rewards_amount = rewards_text.match(/(\d+.*\d*)/)[1].to_f
puts "The current rewards amount are: #{rewards_amount}."
return rewards_amount
end
end
end
And the call to the function:
user_rewards = UserData.new(#browser).getCurrentRewards
Why it did not work me? Two main reasons:
I didn't pass the browser object to the class <== REQUIRED
I didn't include the PageObject::PageFactory in the class <== REQUIRED for the "on" method.
Thanks all!
To use the on (or on_page) method requires two things:
The method to be available, which is done by including the PageObject::PageFactory module.
Having a #browser variable (within the scope of the class) that is the browser.
So you could make your MyTools class work by doing:
class MyTools
#Include this module so that the class has the 'on' method
include PageObject::PageFactory
def initialize(browser)
#Assign a browser object to #browser, which the 'on' method assumes to exist
#browser = browser
end
def call_to_page_object
on Booking do |page|
puts page.txtFirstName
end
end
end
You would then be calling your MyTools class like:
#Assuming your Cucumber steps have the the browser stored in #browser:
MyTools.new(#browser).call_to_page_object
What are you trying to do?
Did you read Cucumber & Cheese book?
Pages should be in the features/support/pages folder. You can put other files that pages need there too.
If you want to use on method in a class, you have to add this to the class:
include PageObject
The code from MyTools class looks to me like it should be in Cucumber step file, not in a class.
Your class should use the extend keyword to access special class methods like span:
class Booking
extend PageObject
span(:txtFirstName, :id => 'details_first_name')
end
I hope this works.
describe SomeThing do
before :all do
# ...
FooClass.stub(:fooMethod).with('a').and_return("something")
end
end
Worked cool with rspec 1.
I've updated to rspec 2, and this is what i'm receiving for this line now:
Failure/Error:
FooClass.stub(:fooMethod).with('a').and_return("something")
NoMethodError:
undefined method `stub' for FooClass::Class
The rspec api but says: Person.stub(:find) { person }
What am i missing?
Is this inside an it or before block?
Stubs are not supported in before :all blocks. Stubs and mocks get cleared after each example. You can read more about this here. Change the before :all do to before do and this should work.
