I try to create my first test case in LeanFT for that I downloaded from Microsoft Store - One Note app. First of all I would like to learn how to press a button, for example "Home" button.
I tried to select "Home" menu using Object Identification Center (OIC) but I couldn't create identifications for that menu - it seems that OIC doesn't see "Home" menu and highlight a much larger area -
Are there any features how to work with apps from Microsoft Store?
Are there any features how to work with apps from Microsoft Store?
Yes.
But, that's not really what you're asking.
As you probably saw in LeanFT settings, there are multiple technologies available, most of them disabled.
If I remember correctly, by default the ones enabled are WPF, STD Win, and some other.
What are these technologies?
They are the ones in which the app (the AUT) were written.
You need to know this information if you want to use LeanFT, OIC, etc.
So - the first question you need to ask is: In what technology is my AUT (OneNote in your case) written?
The next question is: Is this technology enabled in settings?
After you enabled it and restarted the engine so that the technology can be taken into account - then you can start using the OIC.
And I suggest only keeping enabled the technologies needed. There's only so much guessing the engine can do. If you have only one tech enabled, the engine knows exactly what you need.

maybe what I'm asking is difficult to do or even ridiculous, but I'll give it a try anyway.
I have a typical PHP website, with a products list. And I have a Java application which manages the products (CRUD). In that application I have a JDialog that pops up when I select to edit a product.
My question is: ¿Is there a way, no matter how difficult to implement, in which I click an "Edit product" button on the webpage and the java application JDialog pops up to edit that product?
Thank you.
I'm no expert on the matter but take a look at custom protocol handlers.
Define a custom protocol myapp:\\ that you can use on your web page in hrefs like:
Open Product 1
Then on OS level you need to specify how this protocol should be handled. (In your case that will be to run your Java program with the correct arguments to open product1). The installation of your Java program should make the necessary changes to the OS in order to correctly handle this custom protocol.
Take a look at this site for more information.
I am developing an e-commerce web application, and in that ads from other giants pop up. I figured out that this is done by PriceFountain, which is actually a spyware. I found the steps to remove that from my laptop. more found here.
but the problem is my clients can also have this adware. I want to programmatically do following or either of them, on the client side:: (and if it is not possible at least inform the user to do so)
If, PriceFountain is present, uninstall it from their system. If it is an add-on, remove that.
Activate the pop-up blocker (deactivation can be achieved through javascript and jquery). But I want to activate. My site does not need pop-ups.
Alter the registry of user for the contents of PriceFountain.
I know this is somewhat an unethical hack, but can this be achieved and if so, how?
More of that, it is just my curiosity can we affect client site settings.?
You used to be able to do that (with jscript/vbscript) in IE if and only if the user added your site to his trusted sites (and allowed pretty much everywhere there), or if it was the intranet-site with relaxed permissions.
Back in the old day's I had such a thing for the intranet-help-site where users could browse through the faq and click on the 'execute solution' button for the common 'problems' (previously solved and added to DB).
For rather obvious security-reasons this is no longer the case (although one can still pull some stuff in legacy IE environments).
The point is: you can't do this on other browsers then IE (unless maybe you'd develop separate plug-ins for them and ask your users to install something that will essentially give you access to their whole machine). Realize that effectively what you are asking for is a way to fully control the user's machine. Would you install such a browser (on your parents pc)?
The best course of action would be to face-up, inform your users on your main-website (enter-page) that something bad spread throughout an ad-network and guide them through the steps (that you already found) necessary to relieve them from their problem.
Even if what you asked was possible, you'd still need the user's cooperation somewhere along the way, even if you'd were to write an application for this that the users could download and run (administrative/elevated)..
Good Luck!
EDIT: for the registry you might try something with the answers in this question: read/write to Windows Registry using Java
Still, you'd still need the user's co-operation.
I've been pondering over this problem most the afternoon and haven't yet found the most ideal solution so thought I would see what others think..
There is a legacy Win16 application that has to be modified (with the least effort) in order to communicate with a web based application.
The idea is such that in the Win16 app, the user will want to look up a specific code, so they'll click a button which will then launch the browser and allow them to navigate a specific set of pages until they find the result they desire, then they have the option of either pressing Select or Cancel.
Pressing Select should pass back a small string back to the app (around 10 characters) and close the browser. Cancel will likewise send a Cancel message back to the app and again close the browser window.
I can't see many choices available in implementation as the Win16 app is not able to call webservices, so I'm looking at using the clipboard, however that is not without problems.
I hope there's some other alternative I haven't thought of,
As always - all advice appreciated.
Thanks,
I've inherited a Java web app that actually uses a Silverlight XAP for one small section of functionality, which allows users to upload large batches (1+) of images to a directory on the server.
The business requirements are provided in more detail below, but can be summarized as follows:
Users must be able to upload multiple images at the same time - if the user has 500 images to upload they shouldn't have to click a button, select the next file, and click "upload" 500 times; they should be able to select all 500 files from the local file system and upload them as a single "batch"
The file upload component must be AJAX or AJAX-like (does not require a page redirect/refresh)
The developer who chose Silverlight did so because:
He knew C# and used to be a Silverlight developer ;-)
Silverlight does meet those requirements
Silverlight has (according to him) better browser coverage than our JS technology (jQuery)
When management found out that Silverlight was chosen (which they only did during this hand-off!), they flipped out because Microsoft/Silverlight is not a part of our standards/platform.
I've been asked to research what it would take to re-write this in something that isn't Silverlight and is standards-compliant. We're a Java camp, and have been given the following acceptable candidates for technology selection:
Any Java view technology that could satisfy these requirements (GWT, maybe even JSF?!?) - this would be my preference
JavaScript/jQuery/QooxDoo/etc.
Applets (ehhh...)
Flash (I have no experience developing Flash/Flex and prefer this the least but will entertain the idea for the company's sake)
Of course, developer skill sets weigh-in heavily. The project has been handed to me and one other developer. Both of us have decent JS experience, strong Java and JSP background, but zero Flash.
The most important thing here is that a user can have the following experience:
They click a button (which would be a part of this component) that reads "Select Images"
A modal dialog pops up (modality is my personal "requirement", but not mandatory though)
Dialog allows them to pick a folder on their local file system, and select 1+ image files from inside that folder
Dialog has an "Upload Now" button, once user clicks it the dialog disappears and the component shows a progress bar of each photo being uploaded, sequentially
I've spent all afternoon researching GWT, JSF, ICEFaces and jQuery, and they all seem like they could handle these requirements, but I have not seen anything that assures me.
My question is: is there a Java solution that can accomplish this, and if so, what (GWT, JSF, RichFaces, etc.)?
If not, then can jQuery or any other JS lib do this?
If not, do I have any other options besides applets or Flash (and, of course, Silverlight)?
I would honestly rather consider pitching a new technology to our Enterprise Architecture committee than to do an applet (which is the anethma of Java development) or Flash (which I would have to learn from scratch).
Thanks in advance for any nudges in the right direction!
Edit
I know many of you may be tempted to answer by suggesting completely different alternative solutions. Please see my comment to #GolezTol's answer, but basically these constraints are hard-bounded and beyond my control.
Java must be installed and available too. But if a use should be able to upload 500 files, I would choose to give them an FTP account, or upload the files in a compressed format like a zip file, which I think any OS can create natively. Java, Flash, Silverlight.. All of those are components that are not always available. And I don't think a web interface is the most suitable for uploading so many images.
We need a tool to test a set of fairly complex Java applications. The applications are mostly independent client programs or applets communicating with a servlet or apache server at a remote site. Specs:
Runnable on Windows XP, Vista and 7
Parameterizable (Can specify in a script the sequence of buttons to click, text to type in JTextFields and browser address bar etc.)
Can quit or bail out or display a nasty message if the expected window or dialog box doesn't appear
Record the output on the Java Console of browser in a .txt file (IE is sufficient for now) when the application opens a browser window.
While running, I should be able to see it running with folded hands while it would run
for a few minutes
We were thinking of writing an AWTRobot based tool that reads a command file and does this - (don't know how to do #3 or #4 yet - will ask you folks some day how to detect a window on the desktop). Would you suggest an open source tool available to do this? We don't need anything fancy to capture video or screenshots. Thank you, - M.S.
For browser based automated testing you can use Selenuim or you can use WebDriver.
The selenium project is hosted here
If you don't need to test the way the pages are actually rendered by the browser, but instead need to work at the HTTP/HTTPS/etc request level then have a look at JMeter. It has parametrization, dataproviders, graphs, and a proxy component for recording http user sessions.
If you do need browser testing, then, as has already been mentioned, Selenium is probably the best freely available tool. For production I would recommend using Selenium Remote Control server which can be driven by scripts written in Java/Python/C#/Perl/PHP.
To see what tools people use in real production environments, and to do your own research on what is available I recommend www.sqaforums.com.
Have a look at Sikuli
The reason I suggest this is it sounds like you need to test both a Java applet and the content of a native browser (launched from Java, but not itself Java) -- so it's not "Java all the way".
I'm not sure what you mean by criteria 4, though. It is worth noting that as Sukuli works by image analysis, it won't be able to copy text to a text file.
This question is an invitation for sales pitch, don't you think. How about Mercury Quicktest professional ( I believe its HP Quick test now). I do not believe this will be cheap either ( and well its HP, it will probably only work in IE ;)).
Since you want an open source solution, I believe, the most popular option is selenium and yes its a pain to configure sometimes ( like for Flex for example). So you should try Watir.
There is a lot of good buzz around it and when I evaluated it, I loved what I see.Also it does not work for desktop applications, I suggest you try some other solution for that.
(The problem is open source GUI testing tools are not usually all inclusive. If you need one solution to handle all your gui testing needs, then you should check out the more commercial ones like QTP.
I have used IBM Rational Functional Tester. It has everything you need and it's quite easy to learn. The scripting language is either Java or VB.Net so you won't have to worry about learning a language for your tests.
