Re: Using Webtest to test ext js pages

 Hello Iain_10


I had the identical problem seeing an empty rectangle within the grid
where the content normally appeared. It is possible to test ExtJS
grids with WebTest and I solved that in the following way:

                // example: searching an organization in a separate
search field
                // set the search field, the results are displayed in a
extjs grid
                ant.setInputField description: "set [id=searchFilter] =
Ypsilan",
                xpath:'//input[@id=\'searchFilter\']',
                value: "Ypsilan"

                // exectute the javascript function which loads the
content of the grid
                def page= step.context.currentResponse
                ScriptResult result= page.executeJavaScript("loadGrids();")

                // ... yes, it may take time, adjust the period to your
needs
                ant.sleep description: "sleep 20", seconds: "20"

                // the XPath in the grid is best retrieved with Firefox'
DOM Inspector:
                // 
//div[@id='ext-gen33']/div[@id='ext-gen34']/div[1]/table/tbody/tr/td[3]/div/a
                verifyXPath description: "see Ypsilantis Oliven Import
GmbH",
                xpath:
"//div[@id=\'ext-gen34\']/div[1]/table/tbody/tr/td[3]/div/a",
                text: "Ypsilantis Oliven Import GmbH"

bye, wildi
