Enabling Coded UI Test playback logs in Visual Studio 2013

Coded UI Tests can fail for a number of reasons, producing detailed logs that can be used to rapidly identify what caused the failure.To enable this level of detail in the test results, open explorer and go to the following folder.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\

In this location you will find QTAgent32.exe.config. Before opening files in this directory, be sure that you have the permissions to edit and save files.

Locate the following section in the configuration file and set the “EqTraceLevel” to 4.

<system.diagnostics>

  <switches>

    <!-- You must use integral values for "value".

          Use 0 for off, 1 for error, 2 for warn, 3 for info, and 4 for verbose. -->

    <add name="EqtTraceLevel" value="4" />

  </switches>

</system.diagnostics>

Then scroll down to the appSettings section and a key “EnableHttpLogger” with a value of “true”. Then add another key “EnableSnapshotInfo” with a value of “true

  <appSettings>

    <add key="EnableSnapshotInfo" value="true"/>

    <add key="EnableHttpLogger" value="true"/>

    <add key="StopTestRunCallTimeoutInSeconds" value="5"/>

    <add key="LogSizeLimitInMegs" value="20"/>

    <add key="CreateTraceListener" value="no"/>

    <add key="GetCollectorDataTimeout" value="300"/>

  </appSettings>

Now when you run a codedUI Test you will see there is an output link in the Test Explorer results

Which in turn will take you to the Test output containing the UITestActionLog.html

Which contains the CodeUI Test Log

Cross Browser Testing with CodedUI

Content:

1, Instal the CodedUI Test Cross Browser Plugin

2, Coding Change for Cross Browser Testing

3, Hand Coding for Maximize the Browser Window

 

1, Instal the CodedUI Test Cross Browser Plugin:

1,The Plugin will be downloaded as part of the VS update.

Steps : Open VS 2013 -> Tools -> Extensions and Updates -> Click Online

 

2,The Plugin also be downloaded from following link

https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/11cfc881-f8c9-4f96-b303-a2780156628d

3,The extension will be installed in the common file directory of your local machine “C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VSTT”

 2, Coding Change for Cross Browser Testing

1, Create the Test Initialize method called MyTestInitialize().

2, Change the Current Browser Property of Browser window class.

Eg: BrowserWindow.CurrentBrowser = ”Chrome”

      BrowserWindow.CurrentBrowser = ”Firefox”

 

3, Hand Coding for Maximize the Browser Window

Cross browser does not support the default “Maximize”. So we want to write      the hand coding to Maximize the browser window.

A, Create object for Browser window class

B, Give the URL to launch the website when Browser window open

C, Maximize the Browser Window

How have Multiple Test in a VB file

Multiple Test in a File

Steps to Create Multiple Test in a Coded UI Test File -

1) Create a Coded UI Test File

2) Copy the automatic loaded file and paste below end class

3) Rename created class and method

4) Create required coded UI test

5) Select sub method and run

Methods to Create CSV File to Pass Parameter in CodedUI and to integrate in code

Content:

1.      Create Test and Set Data

Coded UI Test Automation Learning Log

Dear Friends,

In recent days we are trailing, exploring and learning more in Automation Testing using Coded UI Test Automation. With that note I am creating this learning log post for us to share learned items and gain more information on CUITe. Thank you Suganya M from my team in consolidating this log list and Special thanks for those of my team and other who are going to contribute a lot into this.

View the Learning Log till now from our QA Team...

# Defect knowledge sharing
# Cloud Computing
# Usability Testing
# Visual Basic
# Coded UI Test Automation and lot more to come...

In line to this we are moving forward with a complete automation testing as a solution for better Product Quality and Competency this year. Though these are basic stuff but the initiative and support shown is excellent which helped in sharing and learning new things.

Herewith I have list few of our learned and few for our learning item...

# What are the default files created in CodedUI project?

--While create coded UI project by default CodedUI files & 3 UI files got created. 1,CodedUItest.vb/CodedUItest.c#  - Class,Methods 2,UiMap.UITest - XML File 3,UIMap.vb/UIMap.Cs 4,UIMap.Designer.vb/UIMap.Designer.cs

# How to generate method from recording?

--Do the above steps -> CodedUI builder got opened -> Click record button -> Record the action -> click pause button -> click generate code button

# Unable to Read Controls Eg:Combo expandable issue? AM Chart # Error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException will be show while run upon mouse click same from and to date in datepicker. To avoid the To date can be a keyed in. # How to Edit assertion method and reuse in another method?
