Webdriverscript not working as expected...

[Jemboy]

Hi,

I have the below script.
It should return the second screenshot, however sometimes I get the first screenshot.
On some computers I almost 90% get screen 2, but on some others I get screen 1 (wrong screen) almost every time.

I have played around with "_WD_LoadWait", sleep or using "_WD_WaitElement", however I do not seem
to be able get the reason why my script is behaving so randomly.

Does anyone have some insights for me ?

My recommendation is to run the script with $_WD_DEBUG_Full, and then share the output from a failed run of the script.

Hello jemboy,

will you automate the login process or registration process?

for the Login, i think you can take the following URL: https://login.tecalliance.net

Greetings,

Marcel

I want to automate the login process.
Your link seems like a very nice shortcut to this🙂
I will have a look, if I can implement this.

Besides that it still  gnaws at me (Dutch: het knaagt aan me) that running the script multiple times
results in diffirent outcomes.
So I would love the learn what I am overlooking😁

[Jemboy]

@Danp2I will try to do that as soon as possible.
For now,  I have been able to capture (copy/paste) the Scite Output from both events.
And I want to analyse those with a text diff tool.... later today.
 

[Jemboy]

Haven;t had the time run and grab the full log, but I can post relevant Scite output here.
The websriver UDF is 1.3.1, however my full script (in another folder) uses the latest Webdriver UDF.

With the wrong response outputm I see "__WD_Post ==> Element interaction issue [14] : HTTP status = 400" where the diffirence is starting.
I didn't have any time left today to investigate why the script reproduce a diffirent result here while doing the same web page.

Hi @Jemboy 👋 ,

this is not enough. We need the full log of both versions. Because no information about your capabilities string which is essential to know.
Please simply set:

$_WD_DEBUG = $_WD_DEBUG_Full

... and run again. Post your logs and maybe we are able to help.

Also please consider to test your automation with different browsers. How is the behavior in MSEdge or how in Firefox?
Another question: Do you use _WD_JsonActionKey in your code? Because I reviewed the changes between v1.3.1 and v1.4.0 and there is nothing which should break somehow. Besides function _WD_JsonActionKey I am sure about this.

Best regards
Sven

Most likely caused by a popup, banner, etc that doesn't always appear.
