Auto IT not supporting for Dev express Controls

[Sanjeevi]

Hi Team,

i am doing automation using Auto IT tool for one of our desktop application which is developed by Dev express controls. I am able to automate as auto installer and login page after that unable to call / fetch any fields. 

Please suggest me.

Best Regards,

Hi Francesco,

As its confidential, i can't provide the application name and exact information so i have modified the .exe name and method names.

As i said earlier.. I would be able to automate as Auto Installer and Login page and then when trying click on some text of Menu item and Sub menu item which is not working.  Please refer the below code and provide the solution for the same. 

 

Let me know if you have any question. Please feel free to contact me on Phone: +91 7259444455

Please find the code below:

This code is for Login Page and Create user:

#RequireAdmin
 #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

;#Include-Once                                      ;-+
;#Include "_Dbug.au3"                               ; |
; Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Main ()

Func main()

   ToolLogin()
   CreateUser()

EndFunc ; End Main()

Func ToolLogin()

    If  FileExists ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Caterpillar\demo Tool\demo.exe") Then

      Run("C:\Program Files (x86)\test\demo Tool\demo.exe")
      WinWaitActive("Login")
      ControlSetText("Login", "", "[CLASS:WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.34f5582_r9_ad1; INSTANCE:2]", "admin")
      Sleep(1000)
      ControlSetText("Login", "", "WindowsForms10.EDIT.app.0.34f5582_r9_ad11", "Test123")
      Sleep(1000)
      ControlClick("Login", "Login","WindowsForms10.Window.b.app.0.34f5582_r9_ad14")

   EndIf
EndFunc

Func CreateUser()

      WinWaitActive("The Tool")
      WinMenuSelectItem("The Tool", "[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.34f5582_r9_ad1; INSTANCE:6]","Management")
      ControlClick("The Tool", "Management", "[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.34f5582_r9_ad1; INSTANCE:6]",1)
     ; ControlClick("The Tool", "Management", 526704)
      ;Send("Management")
     ; MouseClick("Management", 109,14)
     ; ControlClick("The Tool", "Management","",109,14)

EndFunc

This code is for Auto Installer:

#RequireAdmin
 #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

; 1) Obtain the installer (Provide to user)
; 2) Run the Installer (Run the exe)
; 3) Yes to UAC (RequiredAdmin)
; 4) Tool Window Active
; 5) Click Install
; 6) Click Finish

Main()

Func main()

   Initialize()
   AskUser()

EndFunc ; End Main()

Func Initialize()

   Global $InstDes = (@TempDir & "\demoTool.exe")
   Global $InstallSetup = ("Tool Setup")
   Global $WantInst = (-99)
   FileInstall("E:\Softwares\AutoIT\demo.exe", $InstDes,1)

EndFunc

Func AskUser()

 $WantInst = MsgBox($MB_YESNO, "Install the Tool", "Are you sure you want to install the Tool",5)

   If $WantInst = $IDYES Then
            DoInstall()
   ElseIf $WantInst = $IDTIMEOUT Then
            DoInstall()
            Sleep(1000)
   ElseIf  $WantInst = $IDNO Then
           MsgBox(0,"Cancelled", "Tool Installation has been cancelled")
           WinClose("Cancelled")
   EndIf

EndFunc ; End AskUser()

Func DoInstall()

      Run($InstDes)
      WinActivate($InstallSetup)
      WinWaitActive($InstallSetup)
      Send("{Enter}")
      Sleep(20000);
      WinWaitActive($InstallSetup)
      Send ("{Enter}")
      sleep(1000)
      WinClose($InstallSetup)

EndFunc

3) Yes to UAC (RequiredAdmin

This will not happen as the context is different from the running script.

Hi Je maintiendrai,

Thanks for you prompt reply..

see "3) Yes to UAC (RequiredAdmin" this one is commented and just as information and i was able to do auto installer. That is perfectly fine for me. i am facing issue with after login unable to click on any main menu and sub menu.. please look at the below code. guide me on the same. 

Also i have used couple of methods like ControlClick or MouseClick or Send.

Also while execute which are not required i used comment ";" so that it won't execute at that time. I would really appreciate if could provide me the solution or give a call to me for some more information you need. Thanks in Advance.

Hi Je maintiendrai,

 

AS to the UAC... that will not work.

[Sanjeevi]

I am not getting clearly, what are you trying to say.. could you please elaborate ? Thanks in advance. 

See i have two separate program, 1st program  is Auto installer and 2nd program is Login page with create user. 

1st program - i am using with "#RequireAdmin" to install the tool.

2nd program i am not using "#RequireAdmin" as i dont want. 

Please explain me in detail to move further. Thanks in advance.

hello @Sanjeevi, welcome to the AutoIt forum.

first - your topic title is correct. AutoIt indeed does not directly support DevExpress controls.

second - when you post code to this forum, please use the code tags (the icon looking like  < >  in the toolbar).

third - disregard the UAC thing. as long as you have #RequireAdmin at the top of your script, UAC prompt is triggered before the script even begins, so the entire script is already elevated.

and finally - google "autoit devexpress" yields some interesting results, especially this article from the DevExpress support forum, stating that DevExpress might support UIAutomation (which AutoIt does support, with an additional UDF pinned to the top of the "Example Scripts" forum). this article also mentions their "Coded UI Test Extension", which i know nothing about but might be useful to you.

Hi Orbs,

Thank you so much for the detailed information and also the suggestion of "Coded UI Test Extension. 

I will go through this and come back if i have any other question. 

Best Regards,
