Winrunner Question 81: Which TSL functions you will
use for Searching text on the window?
Which TSL
functions you will use for Searching text on the window?
find_text (
string, out_coord_array, search_area [, string_def ] );
string
The string that is
searched for.The string must be complete, contain no spaces, and it must
be preceded and followed by a space outside the quotation marks. To
specify a literal, case-sensitive string, enclose the string in
quotation marks. Alternatively, you can specify the name of a string
variable. In this case, the string variable can include a regular
expression.
out_coord_array
The name of the array
that stores the screen coordinates of the text (see explanation below).
search_area
The area to search,
specified as coordinates x1,y1,x2,y2. These define any two diagonal
corners of a rectangle. The interpreter searches for the text in the
area defined by the rectangle.
string_def
Defines the type of
search to perform. If no value is specified, (0 or FALSE, the default),
the search is for a single complete word only. When 1, or TRUE, is
specified, the search is not restricted to a single, complete word.
Winrunner Question 82: Which TSL functions you will
use for getting the location of the text string?
Which TSL
functions you will use for getting the location of the text string?
win_find_text (
window, string, result_array [, search_area [, string_def ] ] );
window
The logical name of
the window to search.
string
The text to locate. To
specify a literal, case sensitive string, enclose the string in
quotation marks. Alternatively, you can specify the name of a string
variable. The value of the string variable can include a regular
expression. The regular expression should not include an exclamation
mark (!), however, which is treated as a literal character. For more
information regarding Regular Expressions, refer to the "Using Regular
Expressions" chapter in your User's Guide.
result_array
The name of the output
variable that stores the location of the string as a four-element array.
search_area
The region of the
object to search, relative to the window. This area is defined as a pair
of coordinates, with x1,y1,x2,y2 specifying any two diagonally opposite
corners of the rectangular search region. If this parameter is not
defined, then the entire window is considered the search area.
string_def
Defines how the text
search is performed. If no string_def is specified, (0 or FALSE, the
default parameter), the interpreter searches for a complete word only.
If 1, or TRUE, is specified, the search is not restricted to a single,
complete word.
Winrunner Question 83: Which TSL functions you will
use for moving the pointer to that text string?
< ="text/">
< ="text/" ="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad);
Which TSL functions you will use
for moving the pointer to that text string?
win_move_locator_text (window,
string [ ,search_area [ ,string_def ] ] );
window
The logical name of the window.
String
The text to locate. To specify a literal,
case sensitive string, enclose the string in quotation marks.
Alternatively, you can specify the name of a string variable. The value
of the string variable can include a regular expression (the regular
expression need not begin with an exclamation mark).
search_area
The region of the object to search,
relative to the window. This area is defined as a pair of coordinates,
with x1, y1, x2, y2 specifying any two diagonally opposite corners of
the rectangular search region. If this parameter is not defined, then
the entire window specified is considered the search area.
string_def
Defines how the text search is performed.
If no string_def is specified, (0 or FALSE, the default parameter), the
interpreter searches for a complete word only. If 1, or TRUE, is
specified, the search is not restricted to a single, complete word.
Winrunner Question 84: Which TSL functions you will
use for Comparing the text?
< ="text/">
< ="text/" ="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad);
Which TSL functions you will
use for Comparing the text?
compare_text (str1, str2 [,
chars1, chars2]);
str1, str2
The two strings to be compared.
chars1
One or more characters in the first
string.

string. These characters are substituted for those in chars1.
Winrunner Question 85: How to record a data
driven test script using data driver wizard?
< ="text/">
< ="text/" ="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
google_protectAndRun("ads_core.google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad);
How to
record a data driven test script using data driver wizard?
You can use the
DataDriver Wizard to convert your entire script or a part of your
script into a data-driven test. For example, your test script may
include recorded operations, checkpoints, and other statements that
do not need to be repeated for multiple sets of data. You need to
parameterize only the portion of your test script that you want to
run in a loop with multiple sets of data.
To create
a data-driven test:
- If you
want to turn only part of your test script into a data-driven
test, first select those lines in the test script.
- Choose
Tools > DataDriver Wizard.
- If you
want to turn only part of the test into a data-driven test,
click Cancel. Select those lines in the test script and reopen
the DataDriver Wizard. If you want to turn the entire test into
a data-driven test, click Next.
- The Use a
new or existing Excel table box displays
the name of the Excel file that WinRunner creates, which stores
the data for the data-driven test. Accept the default data table
for this test, enter a different name for the data table, or use
- The browse
button to locate the path of an existing data table. By default,
the data table is stored in the test folder.
- In the
Assign a name to the variable box, enter a variable name with
which to refer to the data table, or accept the default name,
“table.”
- At the
beginning of a data-driven test, the Excel data table you
selected is assigned as the value of the table variable.
Throughout the script, only the table variable name is used.
This makes it easy for you to assign a different data table
- To the
script at a later time without making changes throughout the
script.
- Choose
from among the following options:
-> Add statements
to create a data-driven test: Automatically adds statements to run
your test in a loop: sets a variable name by which to refer to the
data table; adds braces ({and}), a for statement, and a
ddt_get_row_count statement to your
test script selection to run it in a loop while it reads from the
data table; adds
ddt_open
and
ddt_close statements
-> To your test
script to open and close the data table, which are necessary in
order to iterate rows in the table. Note that you can also add these
statements to your test script manually.
-> If you do not
choose this option, you will receive a warning that your data-driven
test must contain a loop and statements to open and close your
datatable.
-> Import data
from a database: Imports data from a database. This option adds
ddt_update_from_db,
and
ddt_save
statements to your test script after the ddt_open statement.
-> Note that in
order to import data from a database, either Microsoft Query or Data
Junction must be installed on your machine. You can install
Microsoft Query from the custom installation of Microsoft Office.
Note that Data Junction is not automatically included in your
WinRunner package. To purchase Data Junction, contact your Mercury
Interactive representative. For detailed information on working with
Data Junction, refer to the documentation in the Data Junction
package.
->
Parameterize the
test:
Replaces fixed values in selected checkpoints and in recorded
statements with parameters, using the
ddt_val
function,
and in the data table, adds columns with variable values for the
parameters. Line by line: Opens a wizard screen for each line of the
selected test script, which enables you to decide whether to
parameterize a particular line, and if so, whether to add a new
column to the data table or use an existing column when parameterize
data.
->
Automatically:
Replaces all data with ddt_val statements and adds new columns to
the data table. The first argument of the function is the name of
the column in the data table. The replaced data is inserted into the
table.
- The Test
script line to parameterize box displays the line of the test
script to parameterize. The highlighted value can be replaced by
a parameter. The Argument to be replaced box displays the
argument (value) that you can replace with a parameter. You can
use the arrows to select a different argument to replace.
Choose whether and
how to replace the selected data:
- Do not
replace this data: Does not parameterize this data.
- An
existing column: If parameters already exist in the data table
for this test, select an existing parameter from the list.
- A new
column: Creates a new column for this parameter in the data
table for this test. Adds the selected data to this column of
the data table. The default name for the new parameter is the
logical name of the object in the selected. TSL statement above.
Accept this name or assign a new name.
- The final
screen of the wizard opens.
- If you
want the data table, to open after you close the wizard, select
Show data table now.
- To perform
the tasks specified in previous screens and close the wizard,
click Finish.
- To close
the wizard without making any changes to the test script, click
Cancel.
Winrunner Question 86: What are the three modes of
running the scripts?
