WebDriver UDF (W3C compliant version) - 2024/09/21

[svenjatzu]

Hey,

on my way to use the webdriver it shows me errors.

on running he wd_demo it says

>"C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\SciTE\..\autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "C:\Users\User\Desktop\WebDriver-0.2.0.5\wd_helper.au3"    
"C:\Users\User\Desktop\WebDriver-0.2.0.5\wd_helper.au3" (1246) : ==> Duplicate function name.:
Func _Base64Decode($input_string)

if i deleat  the part in the wd_helper it runs the demo ui.

if i now choose any point from the demo und run it it says:

>"C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\SciTE\..\autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "C:\Users\User\Desktop\WebDriver-0.2.0.5\wd_demo.au3"

whats wron with it?

[water]

Did you install geckodriver on a network drive?
If yes, please have a look at the wiki.

[svenjatzu]

Hi Water,

i aint got no networkdrives, and im trying to use the demo with chrome due to i wanna run the scripts with chrome

 

seems like i missed to add the chromedriver.ee to the scriptfolder.

 

now there is another error.

 

if i run the democode it tells me

"C:\Users\User\Desktop\WebDriver-0.2.0.5\wd_helper.au3" (1246) : ==> Duplicate function name.:
Func _Base64Decode($input_string)

if i take this part out of the helper.au3 its goeing a step further.

on opening the webdriverdemo i choose chrome and eg demodownload or demoaction it justs open a blanc website in chrome and ends with the msg

 

wd_core.au3" (332) : ==> Unknown function name.:
Local $oJSON = Json_Decode($sResponse)
Local $oJSON = ^ ERROR
>Exit code: 1    Time: 74.36

 

chromedriver.exe shows

[7172:3796:0123/130553.569:ERROR:ppapi_thread.cc(317)] Failed to load Pepper module from internal-not-yet-present (error: 126)

As describd in the Requirements section of the wiki you still need Microsoft Visual Studio redistributable installed on your system.
And your version of Firefox needs to be ≥ 60.

[water]

Did you insall the 32 or 64 bit version of the geckodriver?

[svenjatzu]

This function should only be present in wd_helper.au3. You need to determine where the other instance of this function is being defined.

No, but it won't hurt if you have it present.

[svenjatzu]

Thanks Danp2, now i added gecko and if i run the dome on ffx it again shows me an error.

"C:\Users\User\Desktop\autoit freebtc\WebDriver-0.2.0.5\wd_core.au3" (332) : ==> Unknown function name.:
Local $oJSON = Json_Decode($sResponse)

 

any idea?

[Danp2]

@svenjatzu it doesn't make sense to be discussing this in two places. Let's limit the discussion to the other thread.

[svenjatzu]

yes true sorry

Hi!

I'm trying to click in a button to open a client profile, using this:

SetupChrome()
_WD_Startup()

ConsoleWrite("Start" & @CRLF)
$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//div[@class='client35']/a")
ConsoleWrite("Test: ")
ConsoleWrite($sElement & @CRLF)
If $sElement <> "" Then _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'click')_Click($sElement)

This is what i get:

Start
"C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\Include\WinHttp.au3" (2372) : ==> Recursion level has been exceeded - AutoIt will quit to prevent stack overflow.:
Func __WinHttpDefault(ByRef $vInput, $vOutput)

 

If it is useful:

 <a href="javascript:;" onclick="Open_client35">Client 35</a>

 

Why this happens?

Thanks!

Haven't seen that one before. Can you post the full results from the Scite output panel? Also, a short reproducer script would be nice. 😀

Edit: If you are changing the default setting of $_WD_DEBUG, please set it equal to $_WD_DEBUG_Info so that the logging detail is at a maximum

Right now i can't the server is offline, monday i will test and put here.

Another question, there are some buttons that needs a mouseouver or focus to be able to click in it.

Very noob question:

$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, $Item)
$sJsonElement = '{"' & $_WD_ELEMENT_ID & '":"' & $sElement & '"}'

$Script = 'document.onmouseover'
$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)

$Script = 'document.focus()'
$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)

_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'click')

I tried this but doesn't work, in my opinion the "document" should be the problem, but i don't know what to put there.

Btw: I know that i could put the $Script right in the $sResponse line, but to test i'm using that way.

@pubeoutros On first glance, that code looks fine. The solution for these types of issues (mouseover, focus, etc) is often specific to the individual site. You may need to use _WD_Action to move the mouse pointer (see DemoActions function in wd_demo). If the site uses jQuery, you can often use this to trigger the required events.

My recommendation is to use the browser's web console to figure out the exact steps you need to manually perform the task. Once you've determined that, you should then be able to automate these steps with the Webdriver UDF.

The image attached shows the Event option of a button.

But with:

$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, $Item)
$sJsonElement = '{"' & $_WD_ELEMENT_ID & '":"' & $sElement & '"}'

$Script = 'document.mouseover()'
$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)

$Script = 'document.mouseenter'
$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)

$Script = 'document.focus()'
$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)

_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'click')

I can't see the button get focus neither the button get mouseover.

I'm trying in the google.com search button.

From:

ConsoleWrite($sResponse & @CRLF)

I got this:

{"value":{"error":"javascript error","message":"javascript error: document.focus is not a function\n ....

 

So the "document" is right? I don't think so.

@pubeoutros FWIW, you are headed down the wrong path with the "document.whatever" stuff. I've already given you my recommendation on how to tackle this situation. If you're unable / unwilling to do that, then I don't know how I provide further assistance unless you provide a URL where we can test this on our end.

$sResponse = _WD_ExecuteScript($sSession, $Script, $sJsonElement)
