Apple needs an automated testing bed...

I think it would be wise of Apple to design and implement some sort of testing bed for iChat, so that users can test their screen sharing and video chat capabilities.
Some sort of automated system where a person could try to connect to Apple, see a video chat, as well as test the screen sharing function. This would help eliminate a bunch of problems for many users.

Ummm,
I am sure the rest of the OS and folders could be protected during a Screen Share.
It would be useful.
Maybe it would just tie up the Test account too much as they can be busy with just Audio and Video tests.
If you do not have the test accoiunt names for Video testing see TABLE 1

Automated Test in C# Need to get at JQuery Data on Page Test

Hello I am visiting an URL using Selenium/C#/IEDriver and clicking around the page just fine (automated test).
Now I have a drop down that is a Kendo (shown)
I have been able to PRINT to output those values shown using:
IWebElement rpt_Listbox = myWebDriver.FindElement(By.Id("fvw-reportTypeList_listbox"));myWebDriver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("span.k-icon.k-i-arrow-s")).Click();
Console.WriteLine("Listbox after Css click has: " + rpt_Listbox.Text); // Prints << Select >>, etc.
It Prints what I have shown here. Also If you "View Source on the web page it looks like what I have shown and I have included what the "Inspector" looks like on the Web Page for that control:
SO HERE IS THE BIG QUESTION:
How do I select one of those options in my C# Code? Can someone just please, please put the actual code here? You can see my variables. You can see that I can print the text of this "listbox". For once in my life I would
really appreciate a straightforward answer where someone just plopped the 4 lines of code I need here - I would be so grateful, as I have helped many with headless automated testing and I just gave them the answers.
Thanks, Chris [email protected]

Hi Alistair,
there is no name for this process since it is not an APEX process. The mod_plsql or
PL/SQL embedded Gateway code is responsible for this. That's also the reason why
this must be configured in the modplsql's dads.conf file.
The insertion of files into WWV_FLOW_FILES is a process which you cannot
influence in an APEX environment. What you can do is coding an onSubmit process
which SELECTs the file from WWV_FLOW_FILES and inserts it into your own
table ... but the file will always take the path via WWV_FLOW_FILES
Does this help ...?

You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Troubleshooting

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Need an automated means of testing EUL setup

Hello,
We are creating an application that utilizes Discoverer Plus to filter and create a data set. We have created a EUL to provide the users their field and filter options.
Now we want to create an automated test that will test various field and filter combinations. The test will be based on the requirements of the system and will ensure that all field and filters are set up properly. Is there any way to do this? With command line option?? With scheduled reports?
We have to test this for two development environments and a production environment and we would like regression tests that could retest after modifications.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dianna

Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding.

Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding. However when I close Nunit, the page is back to be normal. The title is returned to the name of website without "not responding". I sure this problem did not happen on Firefox version 26. I just got this problem when firefox upgrading automatically to version 27. Please help me fix this problem because it is very important for my work. If you need more information pls send your concerns via my email address.
Thanks so much

Hi, the work around suggested above should put you in working mode in the meantime. However to help investigate the issue it is possible to analyze what is not loading or taking a long time by analyzing the network traffic or http headers of the Nunit web page.

Forms and Reports: Automated Test tools - functionality AND performance

All,
I'm looking to get a few leads on an automated test tools that may be used to validate Oracle forms and reports (see my software configuration below). I'm looking for tools that can automate both functional tests and performance. By this I mean;
Functional Testing:
* Use of shortcut keys
* Navigation between fields
* Screen organisation (filed locations)
* Exercise forms validation (bad input values)
* Provide values to forms and simulate user commit, and go and verify database state is as expected
Performance Testing:
* carry out tests for fixed user load
* carry out tests for scaled step increase in user load
* automated collection of log files and metrics during test
So far I have:
http://www.neotys.com/
Thanks in advance for your response.
Mathew Butler
Configuration:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux x86-64 architecture v4.5 64 bit
Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 ( with patch 10.1.2.3 )
Oracle Developer Suite (Oracle Forms and Reports) V10.1.2.0.2 ( with patch 10.1.2.3 )
Oracle JInitiator 1.3.1.17 or later
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6

are there any tools for doing this activity like oracle recommended tools?
Your question is unclear. As IK mentioned, the only tool you need is a new version of Oracle Forms/Reports. Open your v10 modules in a v11 Builder and select Save. You now have a v11 module. Doing a "Compile All PL/SQL" before saving is a good idea, but not required. The Builders and utilites provided with the version 11 installation are the only supported tools for upgrading your application. If you are trying to do the conversion of many Forms files in a scripted manner, you can use the Forms compiler in a script. Generating new "X" files will also update the source modules (fmb, mmb, pll). See MyOracleSupport Note 955143.1
Also included in the installation in the Forms Migration Assistant. Although it is more useful to people coming from older versions, it can also be used to move from v10 to 11. It allows you to select more than one file at a time. Documentation for this utility can be found in the Forms Upgrade Guide.

Firefox 17 crashes when automation testing is run. But works properly in Firefox 10. It opens many tabs while running and it crosses 50.

Hi,
When we run automation testing of our product, it works well in firefox old versions and IE. But when we run it in firefox 17 it crashes. We noticed that in firefox 10, each task in automation was opened in new windows and ran smoothly. But in firefox 17, each task opens in new tab and the number of tabs opened crosses 50 and finally crashes. We tried with various troubleshooting methods discussed in your blog. But no help.
What is the change in firefox 17 that it makes each task opened in new tabs?
Or what is the setting we need to set so that each task opens in new window?
We have hundreds of test cases.
This bug is a blocker for certification of firefox 17 for our product.
Thanks

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Automation testing with Mosaic

I have been trying to get automation testing to work with Mosaic. Is it possible to Composite Application Framework applications to work with automation?
I have compiled the automation libraries into my tiles. But I can't tell how to switch automation on within my application.

Hi Xavier,
You've already taken the first step by compiling the automation libraries into your tiles. The next step to automate a complete mosaic application is to install and use the mosaic-debug-auto-pkg.zip which has the automation also compiled into the mosaic runtime. This package is not currently available publicly on packageshare for a couple of reasons: a) a bug in gravity (CCF) and b) a limitation in the flex sdk. The bug in gravity has been fixed and will be released shortly in an upcoming service pack. The flex sdk limitation is here: https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXENT-1496 I believe the mosaic automation package will remain a special-request package even after the release of the service pack due to the complexity of automating a modular composite application.
Another technique you can consider is to use Selenium with an html controller tile. The html controller would use mosaic apis to send events and messages to the other tiles in the applicaiton. The individual tiles would be automated seperately for UI inputs, and then the system-level automation could use the selenium approach. This can be a simpler and more economical option, depending on your application's design and verification needs.

Run Firefox in headless mode, for automated testing. Ideally other concurrent instances will operate normally for other tasks.

I'm currently writing a Selenium 2 (Ruby) automated testing suite.
I would like to be able to pass something that invokes an instance of firefox in headless mode.
This would allow me to run automated tests whilst carrying on with manual tasks on another, standard set-up instance of Firefox.
If this is possible, that would be fantastic.

QTP Flex automated test limited replays

I have been writing QTP automated test for our company's flex
application. My computer has Flex Builder 3 trial version installed
and I get the message "License not present. With the trial verison
only limited replays are allowed." (for the ones with sharp eyes, I
didn't miss type a word of the message, it comes with that typo.)
from time to time.
And today I got the serial number from my boss. I enter the
serial and everything worked, but I am still getting that "License
not present" message when I was running my test. I tried to
uninstall Flex Builder 3 and the QTP Flex plugin and reinstall them
again, but it didn't help.
Anyone has a clue on how to solve this problem?
Thanks.

If you are using static compilation with automation libraries
you need to recompile your application to get rid of the message.

Tools for automated testing

Hi,
our QA dept is looking for a tool for creating automated tests that simulate user activity on web sites (APEX-based particularly).
This tool probably should be able to create initial test scripts on behalf of QA engineer and then play them on its own to test our business processes.
Could anybody recommend a good tool for this purpose?
Thanks

Hi Edward,
Although it's maybe not entirely APEX, I saw Steven Feuerstein showing "Quest Code Tester for Oracle" (http://www.quest.com/code%2Dtester%2Dfor%2Doracle/ or http://unittest.inside.quest.com/product_info.jspa).
As Steven describes: Code Tester automates the process of building and running tests of your PL/SQL programs. The major breakthrough achieved by this tool is that you describe the expected behaviour of your program through a graphical interface, and then Code Tester generates the test code needed to implement those tests.
I found it quiet nice and as we're using a lot of PLSQL packages too, I think it can be useful in an APEX environment.

Hi Ahetejaz,
What’s the detail requirement of security testing?
In the VS2012, we can do unit test, web test, load test and so on. I think all of them can’t do the security testing.

Doubt about using automation testing in mtm and vs 2012

Hi
Ive a doubt in using mtm and vs 2012. I wanna test a software by automation method
1) whether i should record the steps in visual studio and attach the recorded file to mtm and test
or
2) can i record the script(steps) in mtm and run the automation testing in mtm, if you say yes what are the step.
Plz help me out for both 1 and 2 by tell the steps.
Thank you

Pavan kumar R

Hi Pavan,
It is based on the detail requirement to choose them.
Do Coded UI test in visual studio 2012, we could record the action and playback, link tests to test case that in MTM, we also could base on the detail requirement to modify the code.
Do manual or automated test in MTM 2012, we also could record the action and playback, but can’t modify the code (need do it in vs), we could do automated tests in lab environment
# System Testing Your Application Using Microsoft Test Manager
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj635157(v=vs.110).aspx
For the automated test in MTM, you could refer to these steps below:
Create tests
Check in TFS
Link test methods to test case
Queue a build
Create lab environment in mtm
Do automated test
More information, please refer to:
# Essential Guide for Running Automated Tests from a Test Plan
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff472576(v=vs.110).aspx
If we record the action (script/steps) in the MTM, we could
playback the test, if we want do the automated test for that recording, we could generate the code in VS and link that test to the test case, after that we could do automated tests.

Forms 10g automated testing

Hi,
We need to perform some automated tests on Oracle Forms 10g. To perform it, we have to recognize form elements.
Is there any way for C++ application to get information about forms contents(text fields' names, comboboxes' names, etc.) in Oracle Forms 10g?

Hi
Not sure it will be of use but Oracle provide the Forms API (either C Library or Java) to enable you to query / update properties on Forms. However, this is only relevant to source code, not an executing Forms.
Regarding automated testing, we investigated methods of doing this, and concluded that we would have to purchase a third party tool.
The two that I am aware of (that support capturing and replaying "scripts" in Forms) are provided by Mercury and Compuware.

Marc
