GetSize() and WebDriverWait . Can we have support for this two?

[KonyLabs]

Currently it doesn't have support to get the size of an element.
And if we want to wait for an element to appear, that is also not there.
Can you please provide support for these two ?

[NickAb]

We can back port GetSize from Winium.StoreApps. But I am not sure what you mean by WebDriverWait support. Waiting is implemented on client side and it should work out the box, did you get an exception while using wait? Can you provide an example to reproduce?

[KonyLabs]

Just Found Out elementToBeClickable wont work but visibilityOfElementLocated will work. I guess that would be fine for me.
But i need getSize() functionality badly.
And i ran into one other issue. If i execute sendKeys on password TextBox, send keys fails saying "Element referenced is not of control type". What to do in this case?

[NickAb]

Are you sure you pass correct locator? What version of driver do you use: 0.2.0 or master?

We had an issue about PasswordBox and it was fixed before 0.2.0, see #46

Can you reproduce it on test app with password field only or can you provide page source and driver logs?

[KonyLabs]

Yeah the locator is correct and am using 0.2.0.* driver.
And as i am getting "Element referenced is not of control type" is error which you have modified in #46 . So i guess i am on latest branch.
The driver logs throws this :

Few Gestures request, can we have tapAtLocation feature through TouchAction or JavaScript Executor.
DoubleTap also throws error (using TouchActions).

[NickAb]

The error message comes from ValueCommand.cs#L28 meaning that the element that you are referencing is not of a control type. The UI tree screenshot shows that the password box has correct type of System.Windows.Controls.PasswordBox, which is a descendant of Control class.

Can you please provide a code of the part of test case where you locate the element?
Please do remember that the code can contain sensitive info as your are dealing with passwordbox, so make sure to replace sensitive info with some random data and marking.

[NickAb]

For tapAtLocation you can use move and click commands combinations. In python this can be achieved using ActionChains. I am not sure if it still supported in javascript bindings.

I am referring to https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/JsonWireProtocol#POST_/session/:sessionId/moveto and https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/JsonWireProtocol#/session/:sessionId/click commands.

[NickAb]

@KonyLabs please try #69 for GetElementSize and GetElementRect support

[KonyLabs]

Is there any way to know the size of an Element from getPageSource() ? If not then,how is it calculated ?

[NickAb]

No, it is not included into page source. You can ask for elements rect or size using selenium commands.
First, locate element using FindElement or FindElements, then call Size or Rect commands on element.

element.ActualWidth and element.ActualHeight are used to calculate the size.

Make sure to use both Outer and Inner drivers built from source of PR #69

[KonyLabs]

Yeah i am able to get Size and all but was just wondering how is it calculated or can we find it in GetpageSource().

[NickAb]

I will add it some time later. This and next weeks are going to be busy.

[KonyLabs]

Regarding Gestures, i am not able to tap at location using anything.
Your way of clicking i.e by move_to_element then click. But i don't have any element. I just want to click at particular location without any element availaible, just like Appium and Selenium i.e TouchAction/JavaScriptExecutor.

I guess the only way left now is to perform it through JavaScript Executor ?

[NickAb]

Have you tried move_by_offset from Action Chains? It does not require element and lets you move from top left corner of the screen.

In first comment in issue #67 you can see that sleekweasel uses exactly move_by to click at specified screen location, no element required.

[KonyLabs]

Yeah i tried that one too, didnt work.

Throws Not implemented: touchMove , while operating move().

[NickAb]

Use Action Chain instead of Touch Actions. What langue do you use to write tests?

[KonyLabs]

I use Java. And Actions Chain is for Python i guess.

[NickAb]

Please see https://selenium.googlecode.com/git/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/interactions/Actions.html

Something like this should work, hopefully

Actions action = new Actions(web driver);
action.moveByOffset(x, y).click().build().perform();

[KonyLabs]

Actions looks helpful . Thanks :)

[KonyLabs]

Nick, when i am trying to swipe on swipable screen(Not Scrollable) . None of the Actions/TouchActions seems to be working. Is swipable screen a special case ?
I'll provide the case :
This is how screen looks

After performing swipeDown it should look like

But the commands performing no swipe Operation as screens not changing on performing scroll/moveByoffset.

[NickAb]

Can you try simpler operation, like a plain click on a button first to make sure that you have actions working?

[KonyLabs]

The actions are working fine for other cases of same App. Its just the swipe which is not working.

[NickAb]

If you still experience problems with swiping, please open a new issue, preferable with minimal test app to reproduce. Because we used swiping in our app, that we test, without problems.
