Hi Anu,

I have doubt regarding CodedUI test.

I have created a codedui test for Calculator app with Add,Subtract,Multiply and Divide functionality. I have recorded a scenario where I will open the app then enter values in txbox1 and txbox2 and hit on ADD button.It works fine.Now I used UIMap.cs file to change the searchproperty for ADD button so insted of ADD I said "Subtract" for Name property.So when I ran the test it clicked on subtract button it works as expected. So I have one more textbox i.e third one "txbox3" sameway I changed the search property of txbox1 so that it should enter values in txbox3. So i created a method in UIMap.cs file and called in codedUIMathod. But it is throwing an error "SetProperty of "Text" is not supported on control type: Window". So kindly let me know whether we can alter the properties of testboxes.

public void ChangeButton()

{

this.UICalculatorWindow.UIAddWindow.UIAddButton.SearchProperties[WinButton.PropertyNames.Name] = "Subtract" ;

this.UICalculatorWindow.UITxbox1Window.SearchProperties[WinWindow.PropertyNames.ControlName] = "txbox3" ;

this.UICalculatorWindow.UITxbox1Window.UITxbox1Edit.SearchProperties[WinEdit.PropertyNames.ControlName] = "txbox3" ;

}

[Anu] The easiest way to do this to record the set property action on the text box directly. Perhaps your control is not editable

Hi,

I also one more query.

For web applications if standard controls are not used does test manager recognises them viz. third party text box created using com.

[Anu] Depends on the automation accessibility support in the 3rd party control. Try it and let me know if you hit issues

Pls let me know..

Thanks,

Nagaraj

Hi Anu,

Please let me how fast forwarding of codedui/manual testing works for asynchronous calls. whether it supports or not.

[Anu] Yes, it does. Just add a waiter to the next action

Thanks & Regards,
