geb cant find checkbox element - groovy

there is this piece of code that provides a checkbox following from a link to the T&C.
<div class="checkbox accept_agreement">
<label class="control-label" for="step_data_accept_agreement">
<input type="hidden" name="step_data[accept_agreement]" value="0">
<input type="checkbox" name="step_data[accept_agreement]" id="step_data_accept_agreement" value="1">
<label for="step_data_accept_agreement">
<a target="_blank" href="/lanevillkor/">
<font><font>I agree, have read and stored the terms and conditions</font></font>
</a>
</label>
</label>
</div>
Now, I am working on a spock test using geb, and I try to retrieve the checkbox element
<input type="checkbox" name="step_data[accept_agreement]" id="step_data_accept_agreement" value="1">
to do so i have tried many things without the expected output. i was expected that something like
$("#step_data_accept_agreement").click() would be pretty straight forward but it is not. in the other side if I put $("[for='step_data_accept_agreement'] label").click() it clicks the link.
I tried to become as more specific but nothing looks to return the element correctly.
one of my last attempts was
termsAndConditionsOption(wait: true) { $("#step_data_accept_agreement", name: "step_data[accept_agreement]") }
and the error message, as in the other cases too, was in one sentence
element not visible
What do I miss?

So the solution was to use js to click the checkbox. The simpliest way is:
def agreeOnTermsAndConditionsAccept() {
String mouseClickEvt = """
var evt = new MouseEvent('click', {
bubbles: true,
cancelable: true,
view: window
});
arguments[0].dispatchEvent(evt);
"""
browser.js.exec(termsAndConditionsOption.firstElement(), mouseClickEvt)
}
Geb provides js support to work with javascript, as we find in the documentation. Also another link shows how to simulate a click event with pure javascript.
This was required as the checkbox cant be found as it is hidden. With javascript we can 'see' the position of the element and perform an action in the location that we want. iniMouseEvent can be used as well as it is documentanted here

Cannot find a way to tap() this element (wd,nodejs)

I have a DOM like this:
<form id="frmResendPassword" role="form" method="post">
<div class="form-group">...</div>
<span class="pull-right">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-sm btn-default">
Resend Password</button>
</span>
</form>
I want to tap the "Resend Password" button.
I have tried many different selectors such as:
elementByClassName("btn-default")
elementById("frmResendPassword")
elementByName("Resend Password")
elementByCss(thecsspath)
ect.... none of them perform the tap()...
however they do not throw a element not found error....
so im confused. can some one please help
update:
Here is the basic automation code... its very basic
it("should send text to phone", function(){
sleep.sleep(5)
return browser
.elementByName("mobileNo")
.sendKeys(usrnme)
.elementByCss("#frmResendPassword button[type=submit]")
.tap()
})
It types the mobile number in fine, however it seems to just ignore pressing the button.
My guess is that the selector is the problem. Try this:
elementByCss("button[type=submit]")
or if that doesn't uniquely identify it, maybe this:
elementByCss("#frmResendPassword button[type=submit]")
In English that means a button with type value of submit that has an ancestor of a form where the id(#) is frmResendPassword
This is how I solved it, thanks to mrfreester
it("should send text to phone", function(){
sleep.sleep(5)
return browser
.elementByName("mobileNo")
.sendKeys(usrnme)
.elementByCss("#frmResendPassword button[type=submit]")
.click()
})

How to check in CODED UI if text field is a required field?

I am new in coded UI, I just want to ask if there's any way to check if the text field in a web application is required?
HTML:
<div class="col-sm-7">
<input id="txt_title" type="text" name="Title" value="#Model.Asset.Title" class="form-control" required>
</div>
I would suggest doing this in two steps:
Get the control based on its ID
Ensure that the definition of the control contains "required"
Here's a code example:
HtmlTextArea requiredInput = new HtmlTextArea(browserWindow);
requiredInput.SearchProperties.Add("Id", "txt_title");
string controlDef = requiredInput.ControlDefinition;
Assert.IsTrue(controlDef.Contains("required"), "Test Failed: Input should be required");
Please mark as the answer if it accomplishes what you're saying. Thanks!

Angularjs + Laravel Stripe integration - Response goes to server and other details missing

i have an Angular Storefront app set up. I have a shopping cart functionality in place and a stripe "pay with card" button etc. pretty much looks like this:
<form action="/#/order" method="POST">
<script
src="https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.js" class="stripe-button"
data-key="{{ stripeApiKey }}"
data-billingAddress=true
data-shippingAddres=true
data-amount="{{ amount }}"
data-name="StoreFront Name"
data-description="Custom-Made Jewellery"
data-image="../images/www/logo.png"
data-locale="auto">
</script>
</form>
Evrything up to this point is working fine. I submit the form and stripe returns the token but the form goes to the server following the route localhost/order (without the # symbol) instead of angular's localhost/#/order.
Why is stripe forcing this redirect? In other words why isn't angular capturing this return call?
Anyways. Then I create a route with Laravel to capture this and dump to inspect the returned data like so:
Route::post('/order', function($request){
dd($request);
});
Yep, data captured by stripe-generated form is returned except amount is missing... I mean everything including stripeToken, buyer's details such as: Name, Email, Billing and Shipping address are returned BUT detail regarding the amount is missing.
Is this normal or I'm I missing something?
Lastly currency is still showing the default: Where can I change currency from say USD to GBP?
Thanks in advance
1/ I don't think Checkout is forcing the redirect, but I don't know enough about Angular to explain what's going on, sorry.
2/ Yes, this is normal. The amount passed to Checkout in the data-amount configuration option is used for display purposes only. The actual amount that is charged is the one you pass in the amount parameter in the charge creation request in your server-side code.
If you need the amount to be user-specified (for instance, if you're taking donations), you'll need to add the amount to the form. Here is a simple JSFiddle to illustrate this case: https://jsfiddle.net/ywain/g2ufa8xr/
3/ You can use the data-currency parameter to change the currency displayed in the Checkout form. Just like data-amount, this is for display purposes only and the actual currency used for the charge is specified by the currency parameter in the charge creation.
This is what i managed to do.
I went with the custom form approach. I had a form template to capture both customer and card inputs in billing.template.html like so:
<form method="POST" id="payment-form">
<span class="payment-errors"></span>
<div>
<label>Name</label>
<input type="text" name="name" data-stripe="name">
</div>
<div>
<label>Email</label>
<input type="text" name="email" data-stripe="address_email">
</div>
<div>
<label>Address Line 1</label>
<input type="text" name="street" data-stripe="address_line1">
</div>
<div>
<label>Postcode</label>
<input type="text" name="postcode" data-stripe="address_zip">
</div>
<div>
<label for="country">Country</label>
<select ng-include="'../templates/_partials/_countrylist.html'"
id="countries" name="country" class="form-control"
name="country" ng-model="country" id="country" size="2"
data-stripe="address_country" required></select>
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<label>
<span>Card Number</span>
<input type="text" name="cardNumber" size="20" data-stripe="number"/>
</label>
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<label>
<span>CVC</span>
<input type="text" name="cvc" size="4" data-stripe="cvc"/>
</label>
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<label>
<span>Expiration (MM/YYYY)</span>
<input type="text" name="expMonth" size="2" data-stripe="exp-month"/>
</label>
<span> / </span>
<input type="text" name="expYear" size="4" data-stripe="exp-year"/>
</div>
<button id="customButton">Pay with Card</button>
</form>
I know we are not supposed to use name attribute in those form inputs but i left them so i could use angular validation, but i remove them using jquery before submitting to server.
Now i created a controller to handle the form: BillingController.js. In there i had an "on click" handler which kick started things by getting a hold of the form and doing some preparatory work: disabling button to prevent further clicks and removing those 'dreaded' name attributes, comme ca:
$('#customButton').on('click',function(event) {
var $form = $('#payment-form');
// Disable the submit button to prevent repeated clicks
$form.find('button').prop('disabled', true);
//NOW REMOVE THOSE NAME ATTRIBUTES
$form.find('input').removeAttr('name');
// call Stripe object and send form data to get back the token.
// NOTE first argument is $form
Stripe.card.createToken($form, stripeResponseHandler);
// Prevent the form from submitting with the default action
return false;
});
Now let me quote the documentation here as this is very important to understand: https://stripe.com/docs/tutorials/forms
The important code to notice is the call to Stripe.card.createToken.
The first argument is the form element containing credit card data
entered by the user. The relevant values are fetched from their
associated inputs using the data-stripe attribute specified in the
form.
Next we create stripeResponseHandler(). Remember it was the second argument in Stripe.card.createToken($form, stripeResponseHandler); above which gets called when Stripe returns the token.
function stripeResponseHandler(status, response) {
var $form = $('#payment-form');
if (response.error) {
// Show the errors on the form
$form.find('.payment-errors').text(response.error.message);
$form.find('button').prop('disabled', false);
} else {
// response contains id and card, which contains additional card details
var token = response.id;
// Insert the token into the form so it gets submitted to the server
$form.append($('<input type="hidden" name="stripeToken" />').val(token));
// and submit
$form.get(0).submit();
}
};
This is copy and paste stuff from stripe's own documentation: https://stripe.com/docs/tutorials/forms. Now, I want to say that, this is where a lot of us were tripping over the fact that form was performing a redirect etc. - notice final line $form.get(0).submit(); . Thats what caused the auto submit, redirecting to what ever action was on form, if u had any (in my case action attribute wasn't necessary as i was doing redirects in my controller).
So i decided to remove $form.get(0).submit() and implemented my own redirect after i was done sending data to the server.
NOTE: Stripe's response will have included data from the $form - try console.log(response); to have an idea of what's being posted back.
FINALLY:
We check if there were any errors returned and if so display them. Otherwise its all good, send data to the server.
The final code looks like:
function stripeResponseHandler(status, response) {
var $form = $('payment-form');
if (response.error) {
// Show the errors on the form
$form.find('.payment-errors').text(response.error.message);
} else {
// response contains id and card, which contains additional card details
var token = response.id;
// prepare data
var data = {
stripeToken: token,
fullName: response.card.name,
street: response.card.address_line1,
postcode: response.card.address_zip,
town: response.card.address_city,
country: response.card.address_country,
last4: response.card.last4
};
// send to server
$http.post('/checkout', data).then(function(result){
// here you can redirect yourself.
window.location.href = "/#/order-complete";
});
}
};
Angular really playing well with stripe here. Check out this link also: https://gist.github.com/boucher/1750368 - learn a lot from it.
I hope it helps someone today. Happy coding!
Stripe doesn't get involved with your form aside from preventing the default action on form submit event and stopping event propagation. Once the checkout process completes, it appends the relevant data to your form and then triggers a form submit event that is handled by HTML / Javascript natively.
I recommend using something like https://github.com/tobyn/angular-stripe-checkout to get your Stripe response handled correctly by Angular.
Otherwise you could add ng-submit="handleStripeCheckout($event)" to your form instead of action="/#/form". When Stripe's checkout process completes, your $scope.handleStripeCheckout method will be run and you can analyze the new form data inside that method.
Edit: Stripe checkout.js actually triggers form.submit(). That's a pretty bad bug on their part considering that almost no browsers handle that correctly. (Form submitted using submit() from a link cannot be caught by onsubmit handler)

meteor-typeahead: Listing and selecting

I have installed meteor-typeahead via npm. https://www.npmjs.org/package/meteor-typeahead
I have also installed
meteor add sergeyt:typeahead
from https://atmospherejs.com/sergeyt/typeahead
I am trying to get the data-source attribute example to function so I can display a list of countries when the user begins to type. I have inserted all countries into the collection :-
Country = new Meteor.Collection('country');
The collection is published and subscribed.
When I type into the input field, no suggestions appear. Is it something to do with activating the API? if so how do I do this? Please reference the website https://www.npmjs.org/package/meteor-typeahead
My form looks like this:
<template name="createpost">
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" id="createpost">
<input class="form-control typeahead" name="country" type="text" placeholder="Country" autocomplete="off" spellcheck="off" data-source="country"/>
<input type="submit" value="post">
</form>
</template>
client.js
Template.createpost.helpers({
country: function(){
return Country.find().fetch().map(function(it){ return it.name; });
} });
In order to make your input to have typeahead completion you need:
Activate typeahead jQuery plugin using package API
Meteor.typeahead call in template rendered event handler.
Meteor.typeahead.inject call to activate typeahead plugin for elementes matched by CSS selector available on the page (see demo app).
Write 'data-source' function in your template understandable by typeahead plugin. It seems your 'data-source' function is correct.
Add CSS styles for typeahead input(s)/dropdown to your application. See example here in demo app.
Try this way in your template:
<input type="text" name="country" data-source="country"
data-template="country" data-value-key="name" data-select="selected">
Create template like country.html (for example /client/templates/country.html) which contains:
<template name="country">
<p>{{name}}</p>
</template>
In your client javascript:
Template.createpost.rendered = function() {
Meteor.typeahead.inject();
}
and
Template.createpost.helpers({
country: function() {
return Country.find().fetch().map(function(it){
return {name: it.name};
});
},
selected: function(event, suggestion, datasetName) {
console.log(suggestion); //or anything what you want after selection
}
})

Disable empty search

I have a photography site driven in part by the 'Photoshelter' service, and I put an embedded search bar in my nav.
<form action="http://brettcole.photoshelter.com/search" method="get">
<input type="text" placeholder="search library" size="15" name="I_DSC">
<input type="submit" value="go">
<input type="hidden" name="I_DSC_AND" value="t">
<input type="hidden" name="_ACT" value="search">
</form>
It allows for a search to be executed with the no search term present, which then returns all 12,000 photos in my archive. Is there a best practice for preventing this, such that the user has to type something or nothing will happen when they click search?
It's also present on my advanced search page. This is generated by a search widget shortcode in the Photoshelter back end. I'd like to apply the same thing here, but not sure how the widgetization of it might affect the process.
Many thanks
You can use the onsubmit attribute of the form element to check if the user has entered information in any fields and then prevent submit based on that.
<script>
function checkValues() {
searchBox = document.getElementById("SearchField");
return searchBox.value != ""; // True will allow submission and false will prevent it
}
</script>
With this...
<form onsubmit="checkValues();" action="http://brettcole.photoshelter.com/search" method="get">
<input type="text" id="SearchField" placeholder="search library" size="15" name="I_DSC">
<input type="submit" value="go">
<input type="hidden" name="I_DSC_AND" value="t">
<input type="hidden" name="_ACT" value="search">
</form>
Should do what you need.

The actual search isn't working
From the contact page for example, it returns this
http://brettcolephotography.com/contact.html?I_DSC=red&I_DSC_AND=t&_ACT=search
the formula for my search returns is
http://brettcole.photoshelter.com/search?I_DSC=red&I_DSC_AND=t&_ACT=search
this search bar is present on all three of my web properties, personal site, blog, and photoshelter site, all three are tightly integrated to where you can't tell when you're switching between them. It needs to work regardless of where the search is being executed from. Thanks
Here is a function I wrote to disable the search form submitting if the search field is empty. It also focuses the cursor on the search field if the form is not submitted so that the user does not think that search is broken.
This is assuming that jQuery is loaded. Hope this helps!
var preventSearchIfEmpty = function() {
$('form[method="get"]').on( 'submit', function( ev ){
var query = $('input[type="text"]').val(),
queryLength = query.length;
if ( 0 === queryLength ) {
// Make the cursor blink so user is aware it's not broken, they need input to search
$('input[type="search"]').focus();
ev.preventDefault();
return;
}
});
}();
