Handling a Windows messagebox [message #732079] Mon, 03 October 2011 21:17 Go to next message

I'm am testing a RCP app. When you do a search in the app and no records are returned, a Windows style message box appears with the Window title "No Matches Found", and an OK button. I need to be able to determine if/when that box appears and then press the OK button. So far, I haven't been able to successfully check for the window existence, nor press the OK button.

Ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

Have a look at the documentation for "External Key Combination" and "External Input Text" here:
http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/topic/org.eclipse.jubula.client.ua.help/html/reference/node13.html

Basically, as such dialogs are not Java, the normal actions won't work. The two actions above will let you deal with the dialog in the test.

HTH,
Alex

The two actions will let me handle the text box, but how do I know when it's there? If I have a test which has valid names to search as well as invalid names, I need to be able to identify when the message box appears.

Thanks

There are ways of checking that *something* is blocking the application - trying to open a menu, or clicking in the active window for example will throw an error if a dialog is in front of the AUT, and you can react to that kind of an error in a retry event handler to deal with the window. What exactly is in front can't be determined using our current actions, but that something is there can be.

HTH,
Alex
