  Hi,

  I am trying to write script to send type command into application under test but cannot seem to work.

  i want to type “Admin” into username field. When I execute script, that step result shows passed in execution result but I don’t see “Admin” typed.

  Please see attached screenshot, thanks.

  Hello gsingh2014,

  In the final test report a passed step result appears when ZAPTEST managed to locate and recognize the object, the actual typing appear only in the AUT (Application Under Test) physically:
  Did the “Admin” was physically typed in the AUT?

  Basically there are 3 ways to check it programmatically:
  1. Using the “GetText” method upon the object after typing the “Admin” string, in order to output the actual printed text (This you can do by using a Message-Box).
  2. Using the “CaptureBitmap” method upon the object or the entire page after typing the “Admin” string, in order to add to the final test report a screenshot of the object’s status.
  3. Verify page’s status after the login UID was processed.

  Hope this helps.

  Thanks,

  “Admin” was not typed in.

  Although I noticed that:

  When script was executed, Cursor moved in username input box but nothing got typed in.

  I will try your steps.

  Thanks

  Hello gsingh2014,

  Can you check please if when the AUT is being executed by ZAPTEST this Username input box is disabled?

  Please advise.

  Hi Sasha,

  I tried step 1 and see empty message box after script is executed:

  1. Using the “GetText” method upon the object after typing the “Admin” string, in order to output the actual printed text (This you can do by using a Message-Box).

  Script:

  Application(“Power ON”).View(“View 4”).Object(“Image Object 5”).Click
  Application(“Power ON”).View(“View 5”).Object(“Image Object”).Click
  Zap.Keyboard.SetTypeDelay 1000
  Application(“Power ON”).View(“View 6”).Object(“Username”).Object(“txtusername”).Type “Admin”
  msgbox Application(“Power ON”).View(“View 6”).Object(“Username”).Object(“txtusername”).GetText

  Can you check please if when the AUT is being executed by ZAPTEST this Username input box is disabled?

  Hello gsingh2014,

  You can check this by placing a breakpoint after the Type method, then go to the executed already AUT and check if you can type something into the Username text-box.
  Basically I can check this for you only if the AUT is public (If yes then I’ll need its URL).

  I placed breakpoint after type line and set it to wait.

  I went to AUT and can type into username text box.

  Thanks gsingh2014.

  Can you please attach your test (attach the *.zap file) and if the AUT (Application Under Test) is public send me its URL and if not please attach also a screenshot of the page with the problematic Username text-box.

  Thanks,

  Hello gsingh2014,

  I’ve ran your test in my end and it appears your Username object cannot be recognized during runtime:
  Can you please rescan this page and try again.

  If the above will not help do the following:
  Remove the “regexpwndclass” Application’s object property value and run the test again.

  Thanks,

  I tried both scenarios:

  1. Re-scanned the object view where Username is displayed.
  2. Removed “regexpwndclass” Application’s object property value

  Still no luck.

  Thanks

  Hello gsingh2014,

  Please try the following:

  1. Add another attribute to the Type method, “True” to the “UsePhysicalKeyboardEvents” attribute, so the full command will be:
  Application(“Power ON”).View(“View 6”).Object(“Username”).Object(“txtusername”).Type “Admin”, 0, False, True

  2. If this will not help please scan again the page but this time save it with a different Application object’s name (Instead of “Power ON” Application object’s name, before saving the new scan, set a different name only for this specific window).
