Infralution Support

[gaurav517]

hi,

I am working on automated testing of applications.
The application, for which I am trying to implement the automated testing, contains the infralution tree.
The tool I am using for automated testing is hp quick test professional.
Using this test tool, first we record a test for which visual basic script is generated. After, I put testing condition in this visual basic script.
I recorded the test for one module of the application under test.
The test tool identifies the whole infralution tree as an object. So, for an example, if I click on any row of the tree during recording, it generates the following code.
SwfWindow("EPC ToolSet, Version 2.3.0").SwfObject("tree").Click X,Y
But I need to retreive the text value corresponding to a cell, for which I can use the internal objects,methods and properties of the tree with the code
SwfWindow("EPC ToolSet, Version 2.3.0").SwfObject("tree").Object.<Internal object/method/properties>

For an example, I am attaching the snapshot with this post.

I went through the help section but I am not clear about some things. The most relevant paragraph was:

[
you can locate a row by specifying a "path" to the Row. The FindRow(path) method takes a list of items that define a path from the root item (or DataSource) to the Row to be found. Thus the first item in the "path" list should be a direct child of the DataSource , the second would be a grandchild and so on.
The FindRowByIndex(path) method is an alternative that allows you to define a path using positional indices. The path is an array of integers which represent the zero based index of a row within its parent row, thus the path {1, 4} would specify the fifth child of the second row under the root row.
]

The method FindRowByIndex() seems to be more convenient but the problem is the path. Can you please describe me with an example..what should be the path using positional indices which describe the selected row in snapshot. if we put the proper path, it returns the Row object corresponding to the path given.
or like in one earlier topic in this forum, GetRow,Columns and GetBindingForRow was used to retreive cell value. so, i used following code:
Set x = SwfWindow("EPC ToolSet, Version 2.3.0").SwfObject("tree")
Set row1 = x.Object.GetRow(4)
Set column1 = x.Object.Columns(2)
Set binding = x.Object.GetBindingForRow(row1)
if(binding <> null) Then
binding.GetCellData row1, column1, cellData
Set information = cellData.Value.ToString()
msgbox(information)

else
msgbox("There is no data binding")
end if

But i guess there is some problem with x.Object.Columns(1)
and can you elaborate more on the whether GetRow(4) is correct for the current situation.
Please suggest me, as the whole application is based on infralution tree and I should have clear understanding of this.
Also, I would like write an article regarding the automated testing of application involving infralution trees as I did not find anything related to this on the internet.

Hoping for your quick response,

If you want to find the text associated with a cell at a given point on the screen then the best approach is probably to call GetWidget(x,y) this returns the widget (like a windowless control) at the given window coordinates. Note that if your X/Y are screen coordinates then you need to convert them to window coordinates using PointToClient eg

hey thanks a lot...
it worked..

I used following in my code:


Set internalTree = SwfWindow("EPC ToolSet, Version 2.3.0").SwfObject("tree").Object
Set widget = internalTree.GetWidget(311,57)
Set cellinformation = widget.CellData

msgbox(cellinformation)

and I got the text in the cell corresponding to point(311,57)

Thanking you again for your brilliant idea....
