Tree node checking inconsistent [message #1001179]

I am trying to use the check the existence of a node in a Tree component using the 'check existence of node by Textpath' action.

Here is a screenshot of the component.

http://s8.postimage.org/socjvbkb9/problem_marker_1.png

I'm using a regular expression (Errors.*/Chronological.*) for the textpath with a 'matches' operator

On running the test, it fails with a 'Node not found' error.

The weird thing here is, if I try the 'Select Node by Texpath' action using the same regular expression, it works perfectly.

what could I be doing wrong here ?

Hi,

Two things that occur to me as possible causes are:

1. You are using different component names for the different actions, and the check is taking place in another tab
2. Other parameters are different (e.g. you are using "relative" as the path type instead of "absolute")

It might be worth posting the relevant part of the test result report - once for the select, and once for the check.

HTH,
Alex

Well, the things you mentioned would be at the top of my checklist.. Here's a screenshot of the two executed cases :

1. Select Node By TextPath

http://s7.postimage.org/800r50c17/node_select.png

2. Check Node By Textpath

http://s8.postimage.org/8n73liuk5/node_check.png

The funny thing for this test case is - In the AUT, it expands the parent 'Errors' Node, so you would expect it to be going in the right direction

Hm, that is indeed rather strange. One other possible avenue to try is whether it has to do with synchronization in any way. You could try, e.g.
- Selecting Errors/Chronological and then checking the existence (thus assuring that the tree is open - if it is dynamically created, then there could be some timing problems happening here)
- What happens if you just try check existence of the Errors entry?

Best regards,
Alex

Tried what you suggested. Here are the results :

Something fishy going on here? I tried executing it with the 'simple match' operator too, but to no avail.

Hi,

Thanks for the update. Fishy indeed. Can you let me know what version of Eclipse you're using? I'll give it a spin here.

Best regards,
Alex

Hi Yashveer, thanks for your help in identifying this. I've tested it and also reproduced the problem. I've put a bug in here:

Alright, so is there any workaround to checking the existence of a node at this point which i can employ in my test cases?

I am also facing the same problem. I use the simple match only.
I was trying to match 'Navigation/Executions' in a tree (TEXTPATH in ub_tre_selectNode_byTextpath Test Case)
Worked with: N*/Executions but not with */Executions or N*/Execution*
I am using Jubula 1.3.0.201210161256 on Windows7 with Eclipse RCP 3.7.2 for the AUT.
Pretty ennoying because unreliable.

Hi Andre,

Your problem sounds like it is a different one - the problem that Yashveer found is specifically in trees with columns, and only for checking. If you put more details in about your problem, then someone might be able to help.

For Yashveer -

I'm afraid the only workaround I can think of would be to try to select the node - you could build a module that:

- Selects the node (if it is there, the test will be successful)
--- The module should contain an empty Test Case as an Event Handler set to action error that continues if an action error occurs.

That would mean that if the node is not there (usually a check failed), then you would get an action error, but the test would continue (i.e. as if a check failed had occurred).

Another more complex route would be to build a module that:
- Selects via textpath the parent of the node you want to check
- Then selects via indexpath (with SEARCH_TYPE relative) the node whose existence you want to check (this presupposes that at least one node is a child of the previously selected node)
- Then performs check text of selected node

Hope that helps,
Alex

Hi Alex,

I am not sure my problem is so different.

I was trying to (simple) match the node path 'Navigation/Executions' in a tree as you can see in

index.php/fa/13307/0/

If I use */Executions* as in

index.php/fa/13308/0/

it does not work

index.php/fa/13309/0/

But with N*/Executions it does

index.php/fa/13311/0/

What's wrong with my test case?
Andre

Also I don't understand what I am doing wrong here. Error message says that the variable should be saved. How do I do that? Do I forget something?

= is for parameters, ${} for variables so =node should work here

Indeed it does. Thanks.

I got the same results using matches.
N.*/Executions* works but not .*/Executions

Andre,

Ah, now I understand. Paths are analysed stepwise - that means that if you enter * for the first level, then the first item that matches this will be taken (in this case, General). Executions is then not found, and you get the error. N* works because the first thing that matches this path part is the "Navigation" item.

Best regards,
Alex

This is really misleading..

Hi Sylvain,

It can certainly be discussed whether it is the best way of doing things, but at least at the moment it works as designed. You can open an enhancement to discuss the behaviour if you'd like.

Best regards,
Alex
