Need some help

[gaurabhi1986]

I have used your project to create sample test framework but getting some issues

Sample Page Object code :

var artCommands = { validateArts: function() { this.api.elements('css selector','@arts', function(list){ })
}) };

module.exports = { commands: [artCommands], elements: { arts: { selector: 'div.index.section ul.index li' } } };

In the above code when I used validateArts command in my test script its not able to get arts element using @arts in this.api.elements() method but if i pass css path it will works fine.

can you please help to resolve this issue why artCommands unable to retrieve elements using @arts.

And also I need help to retrieve all the child element of li element. can you please let me know how can I iterate list to get all the child elements of li tags and their value.

Hi, elements() function is part of the webdriver protocol. If remember correctly, the part of nightwatch's api that uses the webdriver protocol directly, doesn't work with the @ locators. To overcome this, we did smth like this in our tests

    const instancesPage = client.page.instancesPage();
    const instanceName = instancesPage.elements.instancesTableName;

    const instanceNames = [];

    client.elements(instanceName.locateStrategy, instanceName.selector, (result) => {
      result.value.forEach((value) => {
        client.elementIdText(value.ELEMENT, (el) => {
          instanceNames.push(el.value);
        });
      });
    });

Hi,

Thanks for quick response.

I am getting error : "Cannot read property 'elementIdText' of undefined"

Thanks,

And what do you get when you replace the forEach with a console log:

    client.elements(instanceName.locateStrategy, instanceName.selector, (result) => {
        console.log(result);
    });
