Does this work with Firefox version 17?

Does this work if I record an action recording in MTM 2012 and need to playback against Chrome?

Very good blog post!!!

After test execution, the chrome driver never close, so it cause a lot of instance of chrome driver open on test box. Is there any way to close the driver after test execution

In one of my test I need to get the parent/container of the selected element. I tried using both Container property and GetParent method.

Each of the browser work differently :(

1. IE - Returns the parent object of the selected element.

2. Chrome and FF: Are returning the window object.

Any help on this? Is there a way in which I can get the actual parent instead of the window object for FF and Chrome?

Awesome idea, thanks for the blog.

I have found it a little hard to get test written in IE to work with chrome and have been trying another framework on top of this (CUITe) which, while doesn't support VS2012 or this feature, they work amazingly well together.

Thanks  again

I'm having the same problem as Utk, when running in firefox or Chrome. When calling method like GetChildren() the wrong children objects are returned - when calling GetChildren() on a div in the following situation: <div><ul>..</ul></div> i get:

Is there anywhere we can download the Cross Browser dll (Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITest.Extension.CrossBrowser.dll) so i can step though and see if it's the Selenium WebDriver or this extension getting the wrong information.

It appears to require vs2012 to be installed on test agents? that's a pretty heavy requirement (only got not supported exceptions without it installed).

Now Firefox will open, but I need to update the driver to support FF 18.

Chrome gives me an exception - System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))

Recording in Windows 8 + IE10 seems to have a few issues - firstly I don't believe the Action Filters are working with the new start screen (or the run dialog). I ended up pinning IE10 to my taskbar to fix this issue.

IE10 seems to see textboxes as HtmlCustom not HtmlEdit, whereas IE9 appears to be the other way around.  This makes it very hard to create a test that works in both browsers.

Hi,

I have followed all the pre-requisite and have install VSTS2012 with Update-1 and Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing. Also verified the browser version too.

But when launch the test case to run in Chrome by adding BrowserWindow.CurrentBrowser= 'Chrome'; in my code it did not invoked the chrome browser.

Have i missed out any configuration or pre-requisite ?

I recorded my script on IE9, can I playback on IE8 and IE10 using remote desktop and can I run sequentially?

Hi,

I have follow this guide and i keep getting the error when running the test in firefox. It open firefox but cannot go to the url... In IE and chrome it work only firefox..
