RE: How to access Java Script associated with a button in a page and capture a new window.

If you want to test your web application, the HttpUnit works fine.  If
you want to test the combination of browser and web application, then
you're probably better off using Watir or Selenium.
 
I've never tried testing the javascript embedded in the page with
HttpUnit.  From the messages I've seen on this list, that's not easy to
do.  That's why I'm suggesting simulating what the javascript does.

	Hi George,
	 
	One thing which prevents up accessing the login page directly by
forming the URL is, the app throws up error when accessed directly.
	 
	Moreover , its a requirement that i have to go through the first
page ,access the button or access the script directly and go to the next
page. In the way i also  test for this page.
	 
	Please do let me know how i can go through this...
	 
	Thanks & Rgds,
	Hari.

	Your test code doesn't need to execute the Javascript.  Just
simulate 
	it
	by opening "/app/login.jsp".

	Hi ,
	  
	  I am starting off workin on with the HTTP Unit. I am trying to

	simulate a flow for login.
	  
	  There is an  Intial page , which contains  a Button  -Launch.
This 
	page doesnt ha ve any Forms.
	  There is a Java Script associated with the 'Launch' Button
,which on 
	click opens up the Login page in a "New Window".
	  
	  I need to get this simulated and get the Login Page ,to do the
Login 
	into the App.
	  I am stuck in accessing the Java Script to simulate this flow.
	  Can someone provide me with ways how to get this done.
	  
	  Refference : Page Details.
	  Button Description on the page:
	          <input id="launchBtn"  type="button" value="Launch Web

	Access" onclick="launch(false);">
	  
	  Java Script:
	   function launch(accessibleMode) {
	        // Provoke the IE popup blocker
	        setTimeout(function(){launchWindow(accessibleMode)},
10);
	      }
	  
	      funct ion launchWindow(accessibleMode) {
	        var loginPage = "/app/login.jsp";
	        if (accessibleMode) {
	          loginPage += "?accessible=true";
	        }
	        // Center the pop-up window on the screen, and default
it to 
	80% of
	        // available screen height and width (but no smaller
than 
	640x480 and
	        // no larger than 1024x768):
	        var scaleFactor = 0.80;
	        var popupWidth = 690; //Math.max(640,  Math.min(1024, 
	Math.floor(screen.availWidth * scaleFactor)));
	        var popupHeight = 500; //Math.max(480,  Math.min(768, 
	Math.floor(screen.avail Height * scaleFactor)));
	        var popupLeft = Math.max(0,
Math.round((screen.availWidth - 
	popupWidth) / 2));
	        var popupTop = Math.max(0,
Math.round((screen.availHeight - 
	popupHeight) / 2));
	        var wName = 'ocsweb_'+hName.replace(/\W/g,"");
	  
	        try {
	          var w =  window.open(loginPage, wName, 'width=' +
popupWidth 
	+ ',height=' +  popupHeight + ',left=' + popupLeft + ',top=' +
popupTop 
	+  ',resizable=yes,status=yes');
	          if (w == null) {
	            popupWarn();
	          }
	          else {
	            w.focus();
	          }
	        }
	        catch(e) {
	          popupWarn();
	        }
	      };
	  
	  Thanks ,
	  Hari.
