Unable to find buttons of system popup using rautomation - ruby

I'm writing tests using Selenium WebDriver and rautomation to handle system popup. I tried it on irb like following:
require 'selenium-webdriver'
require 'rautomation'
driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox
driver.get "http://rubygems.org/gems/rautomation-0.9.2.gem"
window = RAutomation::Window.new :title => "Opening rautomation-0.9.2.gem"
ok_button = window.button(:text => "&OK")
ok_button.exists?
cancel_button = window.button(:text => "&Cancel")
cancel_button.exists?
ok_button.exists? and cancel_button.exists? are returning false. Hence I can't click on the buttons.
I also tried:
window.buttons.length
to find number of buttons, but it's returning 0.
Could someone please help me why the buttons aren't detected using rautomation? Please correct me if I'm doing something wrong.
Here is a popup:

For my condition, I have to send two :tab key and then send :enter to save the file. like:
driver.get "http://rubygems.org/gems/rautomation-0.9.2.gem"
window = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Opening/i
if window.exist?
window.activate
window.send_keys :tab;
sleep 2;
window.send_keys :tab;
sleep 2;
window.send_keys :enter
end
I don't know why I can't just save the file with:
window.activate; sleep 1; window.send_keys :enter

The problem with this dialog is that it does not use native Windows controls. When you use Spy++ or AutoIt Window Info Tool then they do not show you any controls in that window either.
When using RAutomation you can check if it has native controls on it or not like this:
win = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Opening rautomation/
p win.present?
p win.controls.length
p win.text
win.close
The output of this script will be:
true
0
""
In other words - window was present, it had zero controls of any kind and text was an empty string. Also, closing the window really closed it which you can verify visually - this means that we were interacting with the correct window and not accidentally with some other empty window (beware: this might sometimes happen too).
This all means that you cannot interact with the controls directly with AutoIt, RAutomation or many other automation tools. There might be some specific automation tools available for handling these kind of dialogs - i'm not sure.
There is however a workaround how to work with these kind of windows - send needed keystrokes to the window. In this case, sending a return/enter key would do the trick since that is the same as clicking on the "OK" button - you can try that manually.
Here is example code, which works the same as clicking on the "OK" button:
win = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Opening rautomation/
win.activate
sleep 1
win.send_keys :enter
I'm not sure why, but for some reason you have to activate the window manually by calling Window#activate and wait a second before sending that enter key.
After doing that a new dialog will pop up, which uses native Windows controls - you can handle that as you would have expected RAutomation to work in the first place.
However, if you would use a :ms_uia adapter instead of the default :win32 then you don't need to activate and sleep.
Here is a fully working example with :ms_uia adapter:
win = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Opening rautomation/, :adapter => :ms_uia
win.send_keys :enter
file_dialog = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Enter name of file/
file_dialog.button(:value => "&Save").click
To click "Cancel" on the first dialog instead of "OK" you can just use Window#close as i was using to test the window above.
I would recommend you to use :ms_uia adapter instead of :win_32 since it is getting more stable every day and will be a new default one in the far future.
To set :ms_uia adapter for default one you can use environment variable RAUTOMATION_ADAPTER before loading RAutomation itself like this:
ENV["RAUTOMATION_ADAPTER"] ||= :ms_uia
require "rautomation"

I do not see any popup when I click that link. Chrome just downloads a file. :) This could help: http://watirwebdriver.com/browser-downloads/

This code worked for me:
window = RAutomation::Window.new(:title => /Opening rautomation-0.9.2.gem/i)
window.activate
p window.exists? # => true
sleep 2
window.send_keys(:down)
window.send_keys(:enter)

Ruby Watir reference Chrome Print Preview

I'm writing a script to cycle through some links and print to PDF.
When you click on one of the links a new window pops up of the document to be printed and on top of that new window Chrome's print preview box pops up.
I'm trying to change the printer and then click the print button.
What's happening with my code however is that watir is only looking at the window html and not the print preview html so the elements are unable to be located.
My code looks like this:
begin
browser.window(title: 'Window Title Name').use do
browser.div(:id => "navbar-scroll-container").button(:class => "destination-settings-change-button").click
sleep(1)
browser.element(:title => "CutePDF Writer").click
browser.button(:visible_text => 'Print').click
end
rescue Watir::Exception::NoMatchingWindowFoundException
retry
end
I have tried using just "browser.windows.last.use do" instead of the title name but that also doesn't work.
I know it can only see the underlying window's html because when I puts browser.html the output is that underlying windows html.
If you want to look at the html situation just Ctrl+P this page (in chrome) to see what I mean.
Of course, after posting a question I soon found a sort of answer; basically chrome opens 2 browser windows and the print preview one couldn't be accessed by title (because it had the same title as the underlying one) but could be accessed by browser.window(:index => 1).use do. not sure why browser.windows.last.use do didn't work. Also following that I would have thought browser.window(:index => 2).use do would have been the correct one as index 0 would be the originally opened one, index 1 the popup and index 2 the print preview.

Selenium can't find anything after clicking link and updating frame

I am trying to make a script that will mass-apply to jobs on LinkedIn. It is able successfully log in and search for jobs, collect elements that contain the special 'linkedIn-apply' icon, and this is where the problems begin. Once it clicks on one of those, it successfully loads the job posting's page, but after that it CANNOT seem to locate anything.
To add more information, when a job posting is clicked, LinkedIn automatically opens up the posting in a new tab. Is it possible that the driver is still on the main page and doesn't see what is on the other tab?
Entire file:
require 'selenium-webdriver'
require 'byebug'
caps = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.chrome("chromeOptions" => {"excludeSwitches" => [ "--ignore-certificate-errors" ]})
driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome, :switches => %w[--test-type]
driver.navigate.to("https://www.linkedin.com/uas/login?goback=&trk=hb_signin")
# driver.switch_to.frame(0)
driver.find_element(:name, "session_key").send_keys("someuser")
driver.find_element(:name, "session_password").send_keys("somepassword")
driver.find_element(:name, "signin").click()
driver.switch_to.frame(0)
sleep 2
driver.find_element(:link_text, "Jobs").click()
sleep 2
e = driver.find_elements(:class, "in-apply-icon")
if e.empty?
driver.find_element(:class, "expand-button").click
else
e.each do |posting|
posting.click
sleep 10
driver.switch_to.frame(0)
sleep 10
# THIS is where it gets stuck. It cannot find the 'apply button'. I have tried
using :id and alas, no luck. I have tried finding other things and no luck.
driver.find_element(:class, "apply-button").click
sleep 5
driver.find_element(:id, "file-browse-input").send_keys(somepath)
sleep 5
driver.find_element(:id, "send-application-button").click
#find and click on apply
#upload resume
#submit
#hit x button/leave
#hit back button
end
end
The code towards the bottom is not complete, I am aware of that. I can't even get past clicking the apply button, so it is not important at this time.
Make sure if there is a frame , you are switching to the correct frame and then find the element. Switching to frame indexed to Zero takes you to the default frame.

Watir webdriver: new window hiding behind main window

I've been doing some dabbling with test automation using Ruby and Watir webdriver...I am running into an oddity where I open a new window, but when I act upon it, it performs all my actions behind the parent windowHere's how I set it up (using Firefox if that makes a difference):
# opens new window
b.button(:text => 'Upload').click
b.window(:url => 'urlname'). use do
# action performed on the new window
b.select_list(:id => 'selector').select 'Foo'
end
Note: it correctly performs actions on the select list present, but it does this behind the main browser.Is there something specific I need to write in order for it to remain in front of the main window?
This should work:
b.window(:url => 'urlname').focus
Put that line just after your .use line, and you should see the new window called to the foreground. You may actually find that you don't end up needing the .use line (or the do/end) at all.

Watir - drag and drop not working

I need to test some functionality where I need to drag and drop some UI elements.
I tried to do this on this page http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/dnd/basics/ :
browser.divs(:class => "column")[-2].drag_and_drop_on browser.divs(:class => "column")[-3]
In chrome, I don’t see anything happening.
In firefox, I see the that the mouse button is down, but nothing else happens – the element didn't move.
I tried in other pages as well and this never seemed to work.
I also tried this workaround (which is recommended in multiple threads) and it doesn’t work either:
my_element = browser.divs(:class => "column")[-4]
target = browser.divs(:class => "column")[-3]
my_element.fire_event("onmousedown")
driver = browser.driver
driver.action.click_and_hold(my_element.wd).perform
driver.action.move_to(target.wd).perform
target.fire_event("onmouseup”)
I'm using ruby 1.9.3 on mac. I also tried ruby 2.1.5 on windows and the result was the same.
Is there a way to drag and drop with watir?
This is what eventually got it to work (not fancy at all, but it did it for me):
# monkey patch for webdriver: copy and paste in IRB
module Selenium
module WebDriver
class ActionBuilder
def drag_and_drop(source, target)
click_and_hold source
move_to target, 0, 0
release target
self
end
end # ActionBuilder
end # WebDriver
end # Selenium

How to set WATIR focus on new window

I'm new to WATIR testing (and do I love it!) and have run into a wall on how to refocus my WATIR script to a newly opened window.. Here's my (simplified) script....
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'watir-webdriver'
browser=Watir::Browser.new
browser.goto("http://0:3050")
browser.text_field(:name,"userkey300203830").set("OKJHNB")
browser.button(:id, "interview48").click
puts "Expected Result:"
puts "A successful display of cars"
if browser.window(:title=>"300203830").exists?
puts " Test passed. New window opened!"
else
puts " Test Failed! No window found"
end
It all works right up to the end. After the key "interview48" is clicked, a new window is opened with the title "300203830". Looks like I find it but I just don't know how to now focus on that window.
browser.window(:title => "300203830").use do
# do something
end
More information: http://watir.github.io/docs/browser-popups/
Additionally for more than 2 windows you can use the following:
browser.windows[n].use
#n is variable for which window. n will access them in order of opened or tabs from left to right
browser.windows.last.use
browser.windows.first.use
You can use the above commands if you open a new window from first browser instance and would like to toggle between the two.
There are 3 primary selectors for windows:
:title - typically the easiest
:url - often used with a Regexp value
:element - a unique element might be the least brittle (new as of Watir 6.18!)
browser.window(title: 'new window')
browser.window(url: /my_page.html/)
browser.window(element: browser.div(id: 'my-element'))
Locating by index is no longer supported
More information: Watir Browser Windows
If there is only one other window you want to use, so as of Watir 6.18, the easiest way to work with that window is with Browser#switch_window. It can only be used if there are only 2 windows, and all it does is switch to the other one, no additional locating required.
browser.switch_window
