How to push multiple characters into an element without having to setvalue one by one ?

USB-internet

@USB-internet

It looks like set value of multi characters is impossible because it takes too much time, 20000 characters lose 300s

No, it works that way I believe

Why 20000 chars?

Is it for web or for native?

and what is the intent of the testcase?

Andrejs

@andrcuns

I believe it's how webdriver fills in input, it has nothing to do with wdio. Don't make silly test cases filling 20000 chars inside input field and everything will be fine :D maybe using browser.execute() and doing it via js could solve the issue

Hey @woolter, I tried implementing your code into my wdio.conf.js file, to push the diff screenshot from wdio visual regression to the allure report upon failure. However, I'm getting an error 'TypeError: allureReport.createAttachment is not a function'. Any ideas what I might be missing?

Andrejs

@andrcuns

All you should need is something like this:

const reporter = require("wdio-allure-reporter");
reporter.createAttachment("AttachmentName", buffer_of_image, "image/png");

if it complains about not a function, check if allure reporter is required correctly

Hi guys, any of you got hit by this problem: on windows, i'm setting the chrome browser in emulation mode and doing a click on a button, its working fine ....but on mac when i try the same test, it fails ...if i go in debug mode on mac and try to click the button it works, but when rolling the test the webdriver says that it clicked the button but in reality it didn't

hey guys cant we use jquery in side of the browser.execute()

Wim Selles

@wswebcreation

@himalbandara84

Yes you can, but why would you?

browser.execute() just injects JS in the browser so you can inject everything you want

himalbandara84

@himalbandara84

because i cant locate element via css because i need to hit direct element by value @wswebcreation

Wim Selles

@wswebcreation

ok, but why use jQuery, it that on you page?

himalbandara84

@himalbandara84

do you know any way we can locate element by value in css

because some of webdriverIO command not working in all 3 browsers(firefox , chrome and safari)

so to avoid that issue we are going browser.execute

@himalbandara84
What is not working and are you getting an error?

Michal Matyjek

@mkj28

Anyone has experience trying to run webdriverio with as little memory as possible? Even in Chrome headless all the processes together use ~500MB with single test running inside docker. That's between node, java (selenium standalone chromedriver), and chrome itself.

@DevKhaira

has anyone had any issue with running webdriverio with jenkins, the command wdio hangs.

Andrejs

@andrcuns

jenkins is a very wide statement, it can be literally almost any OS and setup underneath

we do it, everything works as it supposed to

How can I use the Chai Assertion Library? I install Chai about the package.json:

  "devDependencies": {
    "chai": "*", ...

But if I run my test I get the error: assert is not defined

this update to edge is causing me some issues :/ can you specify to use local install of webdriver for edge in the conf.js used by wdio?

Stephen Greener

@sgreener

figured it out...

seleniumArgs: {
        javaArgs: [
            '-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=C:\\Windows\\System32\\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe'
        ]
    },

Stephen Greener

@sgreener

whats wrong with ...

browser.element('//ul[@id="select2-EmploymentRoles_JobTitle-results"]').isExisting();

Fails in edge not in chrome, firefox or IE11!

Stephen Greener

@sgreener

however...

browser.element('#select2-EmploymentRoles_JobTitle-results').isExisting()

is fine

sgreener @sgreener murders edge

problem: jenkins run command test:grid but causes specs to run twice. Cant figure out WHY
i have 2 conf: normal plus grid with added props

    "test:grid": "node_modules/.bin/wdio wdio.conf.grid.js --suite grid",

var merge = require('deepmerge');
var wdioConf = require('./wdio.conf.js');

exports.config = merge(wdioConf.config, {
  // GRID
  host: 'SOME IP',
  port: 4444,
  // path: '/wd/hub',
  suites: {
    grid: [
      './__tests__/specs/etr.spec.js'
    ]
  },
  debug: false,
  execArgv: null,
  capabilities: [
    { 'browserName': 'chrome'}
  //   // { 'browserName': 'firefox' }
  //   // { 'browserName': 'internet explorer' },
  //   // { 'browserName': 'edge' }
  ]
}, {
  clone: false
});

the other wdio config is boiler plate.

Is there any possibility of clearing cache of chrome/firefox browser?

Andrejs

@andrcuns

browser.deleteCookie() should do the trick

Stephen Greener

@sgreener

Bingo -> https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platform/issues/19224420/
I guess that is why edge xpath thingy not working

Hello ! I would like to know a little bit more about the wdio screenshot strategy.
As we saw last wednesday, I need for my react app to use a lot of waitUntil with inside some try catch when I manipulate the DOM.
However, every time an exception is raised, whether it is catched by me or not, it creates a screenshot. Can I do something to keep only usefull screenshots ?

abjerstedt

@abjerstedt

@andrcuns @deepakjune17 shouldn't we also delete the session storage if we truely want to clear the cache?

Andrejs

@andrcuns

well, since I have been testing UI, for me it has been enough to clear all cokies, but sure, you can clear local storage as well if needed, wdio provides a method for that as well

abjerstedt

@abjerstedt

It depends on what they are trying to accomplish, for example of there is concern about cached assets or css... clearing the cookies won't accomplish it.

Andrejs

@andrcuns

then additionally one just needs to call this as well :) browser.localStorage('DELETE');

@andrcuns Thanks for the insight about using constructors to store elements... very helpful!

Andrew Bertoni

@drewcif3r_twitter

@SchnuWu_twitter did you import assert and/or expect from Chai in your test script?

import {assert} from "chai";
import {expect} from "chai";
const a = 1;
const b = 1;
assert.isTrue(a === b);
expect(a).to.equal(b);

kinsebr

@kinsebr

hey @andrcuns thanks for your reply. I checked the require and it was all good, but still couldn't find the createAttachment() function. Realised when I went looking in the module, that it wasn't in "wdio-allure-reporter": "0.1.2", so changed to "0.5.0" and this function is available

@toien44

the best way to use different parameters depending on testcase is to use multiple config files? But then doesn't it get crazy with all the different config files?
