Executing JavaScript in the browser #616

Closed Keonik1 closed 1 year ago

Keonik1 commented 1 year ago

I don't understand how to call the code that I checked in the browser console. Example: I want to output the name of the current frame. In the temple, I open f12 -> console and enter: window.frames.name and in response I get my_name.

How to achieve the same effect in opentest?

I tried:

- script: var name = window.frames.name;
- script: $log(name);

and script: $log(window.frames.name); but it doesn't work, I get an error:

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to evaluate JavaScript code at line number ?. The script content was: 
var name = window.frames.name
    at org.getopentest.base.TestActor.evalScript(TestActor.java:1490)
    at org.getopentest.base.ScriptAction.run(ScriptAction.java:32)
    at org.getopentest.base.TestActor.executeAction(TestActor.java:1571)
    at org.getopentest.base.TestActor.executeActionByDef(TestActor.java:1739)
    ... 4 more
Caused by: javax.script.ScriptException: ReferenceError: "window" is not defined in <eval> at line number 1

Could you write an example for this use?

Script actions run in the context of the test actor process, not the browser, that's why the error says "window" is not defined. To run a script in the browser, you must use the ExecuteScript keyword, something like this:

- action: org.getopentest.selenium.ExecuteScript
  args:
    script: |
      return window.frames[0].name;

- script: $log("The frame name is " + $output.result)

Thanks, I'll try it in a couple of days, if everything goes well, I'll close the issue

Thanks, it worked!

If someone tries to copy, you may not be able to work, since the correct command for taking the name in my case is: return window.frames.name; Maybe you will also have
