Test calculator app in Win10

[Kanako]

please help me, i try to get the result from calculator but it's not working, it's not some kind of error, just only didn't show the result from app 

i think my problem with the code  $result = ControlGetText("Calculator","","Static5") 

below is my whole code:

#include<File.au3> 
$fileInput = FileOpen("D:\input.txt",0)
$fileOutput = FileOpen("D:\output.txt",1)

Run("calc.exe") ;chay app calc
WinActivate("Calculator") 
Sleep(500)

for $i=1 to _FileCountLines($fileInput) 
    $line= FileReadLine($fileInput,$i)
    AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay",200)

    Send(StringMid($line, 1,1)) 

    $operate=StringMid($line, 2,1) 

    ;Autoit ko hieu dau + nen phai convert (+)
    if(StringCompare($operate,"+",0)) Then
         Send(StringMid($line, 2,1))

    Else
         Send("{+}")
    EndIf

    Send(StringMid($line, 3,1))
    Send("=") ;truyen dau =
    Sleep(1000)
    $actualResult = StringSplit($line,"=") 

    $result = ControlGetText("Calculator","","Static5")

    $out= StringTrimRight($result,1)

    
    If (StringCompare($actualResult[2],$out)) < 1 Then
       ;FileWriteLine($fileOutput)
       FileWriteLine($fileOutput,"Expected Result "&$actualResult[2]&"| Actual Result "&out&"| Pass")
    Else
       ;FileWriteLine($fileOutput)
       FileWriteLine($fileOutput,"Expected Result "&$actualResult[2]&"| Actual Result "&$out&"| Fail")
    EndIf
    Send("{DEL}") 
 Next
 WinClose("Calculator")

For Windows Apps you would need to use IUIAutomation MS Framework

[Jfish]

I have a calculator automation example in the book in my sig, chapter 15 that automates aspects of calculator by referencing it's controls. It uses the AU3 info tool in Scite which I think should still work for Win10.

@Jfish Windows 10 Calculator is a modern app, unlike the previous Windows 7 Calculator app.  You'll find that you can't automate it using Autoit control functions.  IUIAutomation does work, for modern apps, although last time I tried it was a few years back.

Ah, okay, had not delved into the new calculator.  Makes sense.

yeah, native AutoIt does not work on WPF apps. the ui stuff does as mentioned by subz

look here and at the examples, I am sure there is a Calc example you can learn from

Using UI Automation Code in AutoIt - AutoIt Example Scripts - AutoIt Forums (autoitscript.com)

Here is the literal example for calc, notepad and uia (for a dutch windows version)
