I am working on Coded UI for an asp.net web application.
In one of tests I need to validate and verify if the elements of the row are populated right or not.
For instance, suppose my search criteria is such that the Serial Number should start from 001. As soon as I click on Search button my results grid gets populated with all the elements that have 001 in there serial number.
How can I validate that all the elements of the results grid are correct i.e. starting from 001? I know I must use .contains validation criteria.
But what code should I use to run the loop for checking each and every row? in c#.
This answer is heavily dependent upon what you mean by populated right
Is your grid rendering/CodedUI-Defined as a HtmlTable?
If your grid has strict columns you could just ask for the cells matching your criteria.
var cellDef = new HtmlCell(yourHtmlTable);
cellDef.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlCell.PropertyNames.ColumnIndex, "2");
cellDef.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlControl.PropertyNames.InnerText, "YourDynamicValue", PropertyExpressionOperator.Contains);
var matchingCells = cellDef.FindMatchingControls().OfType<HtmlCell>().ToArray();
Assuming your list is somewhat dynamic then you could just validate each entry exists. If you are trying to validate EVERY row, its contents, and formatting. If so you'll just have to cycle every row and ask for each cell according to your criteria.
foreach(HtmlRow row in yourTable.Rows)
{
var idCell = row.GetCell(0);
var decriptionCell = row.GetCell(1);
// your code to match your entries
}

In my main data input in my Google App Maker app, I have relation data that's displayed in a list. I want the entries in that list to be able to be null until the user takes a specific action by clicking on a particular button, but at that point, I want the existence of values to be validated.
For the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to access iterate through the rows in the list and check the value of a specific field. But after a TON of trial and error, I figured it out -- see below.
Starting with the list widget (MyList), get the rows contained in it:
var rows = MyList.children._values;
To access the widgets in an individual row, identify them as an array first:
var widgets = rows[0].children._values;
Then get the value of the widget you want by identifying by index:
var value = widgets[0].value;
I'm trying to implement multiple record selection feature on a grid.
It is very similar to http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=3831
It adds an extra column with check boxes. I want those check boxes!!
But it depends on a extra logical field in the underlying table. It need to create a class clscheck which inherits CHECKBOX. I'm not sure why this CLICK procedure is needed for the checkbox.
PROCEDURE CLICK
IF DODEFAULT()
KEYBOARD '{DNARROW}'
ENDIF
ENDPROC
When I removed it, row selection did not work correctly as expected. Why this?
Here is my requirement:
1) I don't want to add an extra logical field in the underlying table.
2) To work with controls in the grid, I think AllowCellSelection must be .T. I want AllowCellSelection = .F. because I don't need to work with any control in the grid except the check boxes. I need to work only with check boxes. The other columns will be read-only.
3) Can I have selected list without the logical field in the underlying table?
4) Can I remove the usage of KEYBOARD '{DNARROW}'?
In fact, I have a grid which is AllowCellSelection = .F., but it only provides single selection.
I need to enhance it with multiple selection, thus, I just want to add an extra column with check boxes so that user can know he can select multiple records.
No need Shift+Click or Ctrl+Click which is not familiar with idiot users.
I have found this - http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=433
It also depends on an extra logical field and it depends Shift+Click and Ctrl+Click.
What you are seeing is quite common for multi-select grids. I've used them SIMILAR to this in the past. However, you are afraid of the extra column in the underlying table. That may/not be true. You don't always have to update the ORIGINAL table, but a temporary CURSOR you are presenting to the user. Ex: If you want to display a list of employees in a table. No, you don't want to keep adding this column to the original employee table as then anyone else trying to do multi-select could falsely get your selection. However, if you pulled into your own local cursor and presented to the user, then no problem. Example...
Thisform.YourGrid.RecordSource = "Employees"
(bound directly to your employee table -- not necessarily the right thing)
vs
use in select( "C_MultiPickEmployees" )
select ;
.F. as IsChosen, ;
E.* ;
from ;
Employees E;
into ;
cursor C_MultiPickEmployees READWRITE
Thisform.YourGrid.RecordSource = "C_MultiPickEmployees"
NOW, you have your extra column without dealing with issues to the underlying table. If you wanted to further filter what you were showing -- such as employees for a certain division/department, then just add that to a WHERE clause, add an Order By if so needed and you are good to go.
As for the "Allow Cell Selection", I've never had to deal with that. I just add a "checkbox" to the first column and set
Thisform.YourGrid.Column[1].CurrentControl = "CheckBoxControl"
(based on the name it is added to the column).
Then, set the column 1's "ControlSource" = "C_MultiPickEmployees.IsChosen" and you should mostly be done.
As for the "CLICK" event trying to force the down arrow. This is more for automatically scrolling to the next record so you can just click, click, click for multiple entries.
Hope this helps clarify things for you.
I have form with grid. I defined dataStore with 2 columns (text and checkBox). Grid.store = defined dataStore. Second column is editable (you can change selection on each checkBox). I have some button, and when I click it, I want to get info about each cell. Example if have gird:
Name1 true
Name2 false
I want get info col[0].row[0] is equal 'Name1', col[0].row[1] is equal 'Name2'.
I try iterate on dataStore but it has only value which I put them by hand. The value which was changed on grid by clicking on checkBox didn't save in dataStore.. My question is how to iterate on grid, how get info about each cell.
To iterate across a store in Ext3, you can use dataStore.each()
Supply it an anonymous function and the parameter it receives will be the current record in the store. The data in the current record can be read by using record_var.get(field_name).
So, for example:
var dataStore = myGrid.getStore();
dataStore.each(function(rec){
alert(rec.get(field1));
}
Have a gridview control which will show X amount of rows. I want to the user to be able to select y number of rows, but limit the maximum selected rows to a set view, such as 3. If the user tries to select a fourth row I don't want them to be able to until they unselect a row.
Anyway to do this?
Thanks
Since the GridView works with single selections, how are you allowing them to select the values in the first place, on the client or server? If on the client, you can use JavaScript to do this; simply store an array of the table rows that are selected, if the length is three, then block adding to the array until the user deselects...
Please update how you are doing it, and I can post further.
How Can I find all the rows that has been changed in gridview. I can not use Ajax in any form
First get the contents of your grid before it was changed (such as caching the results of the original gridview datasource binding). Then go through the dataset/datatable/however you want to store it, and compare the contents with the current rows of the gridview.
There's no real efficient way to do this, no method like GridView.GetAllChangedRows(). So, what you might do instead is keep a behind the scenes List that you add to each time a row is modified (use the RowUpdated method), then clear this list when needed.
It depends upon how many columns you want to edit in a row.
If you have only one editable column in a row then you can associate a javascript method with that control which you want to modify and in that method you can get a rowid which you can save in another hidden field and in server side you can get all rows whose ids are stored in hidden field.
If you have whole row editable in that case the best approach I think you should save the original data source somewhere and also set a javascript method with rowclick event to get rowid which user selects. Then when user clicks on submit button get all rows whose row ids are stored in hidden field then compare those with same rowid in datasource. This is the best approach from my point of you.
Let me give you an example, suppose there are 1000 rows in a grid and user clicks on only 180 rows. In that case we will compare only 180 rows and wont compare rest of the rows.
Please let me know if somebody has better idea then this.
