Well I do something like this (my Root URL is opened with the selenium = new DefaultSelenium() command early on):

selenium.Open(“/”);
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad(GlobalSettings.TimeoutVar);
selenium.Open(“/registration”);
selenium.Open(myUrl);
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad(GlobalSettings.TimeoutVar);
selenium.Click(“dashboard_ContinueButton”);
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad(GlobalSettings.TimeoutVar);
selenium.Click(“dashboard_ContinueButton”);
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad(GlobalSettings.TimeoutVar);

Is that close to what you do, or do you have a different kind of setup? Basically this script does a simple registration, opening the default site, then a sub-site with a page that only needs some click-throughs. I kept out the data entry since that wasn’t part of your question.

thattil,

Selenium can’t really be used outside the web browser context (it uses XPath, Javascript, etc to tell what’s what and “do stuff”.). Windows apps don’t really run the same as web apps. SHORT ANSWER: I don’t know of a way to make it work with a Windows App. But if you do figure it out, that’s a blog entry.

Madhu, I don’t have a good answer for you right now. This is definitely a struggle in Selenium. I think the guys writing Selenium need to come up with a clean solution for handling these cases. You’re right the commands to help don’t always get it down.

If I find some effective tricks to handling Popups, I will post a blog entry on it. Thanks for the idea! Now to really research it…
