intern Functional Testing with Frames - intern

I'm using the intern and writing some functional tests.
The application I am testing uses a lot of Dojo tabs and iframes and I'm having some trouble navigating around with my functional tests.
I can select the iframes using the "frame()" call and this is fine for accessing the nested iframes. However how do I navigate back up? Selenium WebDriver has a defaultContent to return you to the top most frame but I can't find an implementation of this in the Intern WD.
The problem I am having is that I navigate down into a nested iframe and click a button which switches to a different Dojo tab in a higher frame. I can see the browser loading and switching to the new tab but intern is still stuck on the same nested iframe and I can't navigate back up.
Thanks

Passing null as the frame identifier switches back to the page’s default content.

chrome extension, how to show a modal from context Menu option?

On clicking the option on context menu (of my chrome extension) I want to show a modal on the page, which contains a form.
How do you implement this?
What I have found implemented right now:
I can easily describe a form in contentScript.js and inject it.
Problems I have found:
Defining the elements to be injected in javascript is tedious. (isn't there a better way)
Website's CSS interferes with my injected elements
Possible solutions I have found:
Shadow-DOM so that website's CSS does not interfere with the injected element.
Example:
Pocket Chrome extension is exactly the type of action I want to build and it doesn't user shadow-DOM. How does it do?

using tabbedPanels in a formTable

has anyone got an example of using tabbedPanel in a formTable ?
my form has alot of fields, I'm new to Xpages so just looking for a best practice.
thanks
I have a working example of the opposite - a tabbedPanel, each with a formTable inside with validation, and it works well when there are a lot of fields. Keep in mind that if you use the SSJS validation, whenever you click any tab, the current tab's validation will be triggered.
You can try a dojo tabContainer, with formTables inside, too, where if you switch tabs, no validation will be triggered. You may get js errors, if you set the focus to a field which is in a different tab. I'm not using a dojo tabContainer, because this project is for IE7 and I find it's very slow for this browser.

Trouble attaching to a javascript window with Watir

I am new to Watir, and am working on developing a testing tool for my work.
I have run into a problem that I cannot seem to solve, even after checking several sites.
The javascript window creation is below: (the window created holds a pdf in a window, so the only "buttons" are the minimize, maximize, close)
<a id="LogIn_HyperLink2" class="ms-WPTitle" onclick="javascript:var win = new Window({className: 'spread', title: 'Security Statement', top:0, left:1, width:750, height:365, url:'--redacted--/security.pdf', showEffectOptions: {duration:1.0}}); win.setConstraint(true, {left:10, right:20}); win.showCenter(); return false;" href="--redacted--/security.pdf" style="color:#6699cc; font-weight:bold;">Security Statement</a><br>
I have tried using both
puts browser.modal_dialog(:title, "Security Statement").exists?
puts browser.javascript_dialog.exists?
both have returned 'false'
What approach should I be taking to attach to this new window, or more directly: How can I close this new window?
You can see the page at this link (IE only)
If the window holds a PDF file it's a browser window, not a modal javascript popup (alert, confirm, prompt)
It's defined to start without all the normal menus etc active, but it's still a browser window. You can attach to it as described in the Watir Wiki section about new browser windows, using the url or the title since you know both of those (given the HTML you showed us).
If you are using Watir-Webdriver use it's window switching commands. Right now the watirspec for that is your best reference to the methods supported and how they work.
EDIT
Thanks for the link. While the above would be true for a new browser window, that's not what you are faced with. What you have there is all inside the browser HTML, created in the DOM on the fly with javascript. It's all standard HTML elements, easily interacted with once you know what's going on (this is actually IMHO easier to deal with than a popup or separate window)
Use the IE developer tools, after you click the link that makes that 'window' appear, click the icon in the toolbar of the dev tools to refresh the DOM in the dev tools and you will be able to see that.
The outermost container appears to be a div of class 'dialog', which is unique in the DOM at that point.
The window controls are three divs under that one, with classes 'spread_close', 'spread_minimize', 'spread_maximize'. There are three tables that hold the graphic elements for the top, sides, and bottom of the 'window' but there is ZERO actual content there, it's just a visual windowframe.
There is also an iframe that superimposes that window, which is I think were the content would be (I can't get it to load, maybe because I'm not authorized for it or something)
If you just want to close the window, try this:
browser.div(:class => 'spread_close').click
Since this is coming into existing due to a bunch of client side JS code you may need to use something like the 'when_present' method after clicking the link before you first start to interact with it. eg if all you want to do is click the link to open it, and then close it, you'd do something like this
browser.link(:text => 'Security Statement').click
browser.div(:class => 'spread_close').when_present.click

jQuery Mobile - Dialogs without changing hash

I have a search dialog that I am popping up and filling with jquery templates. After they make a selection I set a value on the current page. As such I don't need hashTags or anything like that, I just need a pop-up dialog that I can open and close programatically. I am currently opening the dialog with
$.mobile.changePage(dialog, { transition: "slide", changeHash: false });
and closing it with
dialog.dialog('close');
However, in certain cases (when the page is navigated to), closing the dialog refreshes the current page.
Is there a better way to interact with this?
Update:
I think I figured out what is going on. So for some reason, jquery mobile usually keeps 2 pages loaded on the DOM - one of which is invisible, you can verify this by running $('[data-role=page]') in the console. One page is the page you're on, the other is the page that you initially navigated to. Not quite sure why they choose to do that, but there you have it.
So they treat dialogs as a page navigation with a different transition even if the dialog is already in the DOM. Therefore, if you go directly to the page and then trigger a dialog, modifying the current page and closing it works fine - because the original page is always loaded in the DOM. However if you go to another page, than navigate to the page that triggers the dialog, and THEN trigger the dialog it destroys the current page so that the pages in the DOM are the initial one and the dialog. In that case it reloads that dialog-launching page entirely and you never get a chance to make any modifications.
Jeez. How do I interact with the jqm dialog widget directly?
You can try two other things. Both should work:
1 set DomChache
How about overriding JQM to keep the page your are firing the dialog from in the DOM? The docs say you can set data-dom-chache and override cleaning the page from the DOM.
If it only happens when you load this page in via AJAX (vs. loading it directly) you could make DOM-keeping dependend on your trigger page having data-page-external, assign DOM-chache="true" only when the dialog is openend and remove it again once the dialog is closed.
2 override JQM
I had the same problem you described and got it to work like this (requires hacking into JQM though...):
// inside transitionPages function
if ( !$(toPage).jqmData('internal-page')
{fromPage.data( "page" )._trigger( "hide", null, { nextPage: toPage } );}
}
My problem was that pagechanging to certain pages (same as dialog) caused the preceding page (where the dialog fired from) to be removed from the DOM, so I had a blank screen (when trying to go back). I added data-internal-page="true" to the pages, which should keep the preceding page intact and added the if-clause in JQM.
So now pageHide (and DOMcleanup) only fires, if I'm not going to a page labelled with data-internal-page="true"
Cheers!
I think I was having a similar problem. What I wanted to do was based on certain parameters, pop a dialog window on load (with that content on the same page), which they can close and view the page that loaded.
I could get it to pop on load using load, or the pageshow events, but when I clicked close that sent you back to the previous page in history, instead of just closing the dialog.
//target your 1st page content, here its id=success
//the modal content is in a page id=dialog and data-role="dialog"
$('#success').live('pageshow',function(){
window.setTimeout(function(){
$.mobile.changePage('#dialog','pop',false,false);
},1);
}
Its a hack, and just allows the page load to beat the dialog so it gets stuck in history. Then the default dialog close behavior for the dialog works as expected. Talk about a PITA, if they took a little more for the JQuery UI dialog it would have made things a ton easier.
And regarding your question: Have you looked at Jquery Mobile Actionsheet plugin
If you don't really require a page to be loaded, that should be ok.
Also helpful could be Cagintranet iPad popover, although you have to tweak the design to be fullscreen on mobile devices. If you require CSS/Jquery to do that let me know (I'm using this in a JQM plugin I'm writing)
Hope that helps.

Capybara Cucumber test fail to find xpath when browser is minimized

I'm running a scenario where form fields are automatically filled in with invalid values which trigger some javascripts to show warnings under each incorrectly filled field when I blur.
The test passes when the browser is in focus. It finds the xpath with the "expected warning" that I pass. But if I minimize or just click on another application, it fails to find the xpath.
I'm running Firefox 3.6 (going to update it soon) and the way I'm doing to find the xpath is by using "page.should have_xpath(xpath)"
Does anyone have any idea how what might solve this? It's really important for me to run it with the browser minimized.
Edit and alternative solution:
I guess the timing issue that occurs in events such as blur followed by finding a certain xpath in a minimized browser inherent to the driver itself. Therefore, I decided to run the tests in a Virtual Frame Buffer using xvfb in Linux and it seems to be working really well. I'm planning on applying this to be triggered by Hudson/Jenkins whenever a change is committed.
Could it be a timing issue? Perhaps if the browser isn't frontmost and maximised, the rendering is not happening quickly enough for the content be present when Capybara checks for it.
Also: How are you triggering the blur event?
