I got the following problem: I am running a JUnit testCase with Selenium 2.9 using HtmlUnitDriver with Browserversion Firefox_3_6. JavaScript is enabled. Now when it should call and execute the following javaScript function it does nothing:
function openIdsDocument()
{
var windowBounds = getWindowBounds();
var XMLHTTP = getAjaxRequestObject("XYZ.do?availableWidth="+windowBounds.width+"&availableHeight="+windowBounds.height, "", true);
if (XMLHTTP != null)
{
XMLHTTP.onreadystatechange = function alertAJAXResponse()
{
if (XMLHTTP.readyState == 4)
{
window.location.href = getContextPath() + "ABC.do";
}
};
XMLHTTP.send("timestamp=" + <%=System.currentTimeMillis()%>);
}
getLoadingState();
}
I want to get to ABC.do
If I execute my test with the FirefoxDriver it works.
Is there a way to get this working with HtmlUnitDriver? My test works if I manually call driver.get("http://host/ABC.do") but that cannot be the right way to do this.
Enable/Disable JavaScript support You can change this to silently (HtmlUnit will still log the exceptions) ignore them (like in real browsers) by setting the option throwExceptionOnScriptError to false. final WebClient webClient = new WebClient(); webClient. getOptions. setThrowExceptionOnScriptError(false);
Constructs a new instance with JavaScript disabled, and the default BrowserVersion.
2. About HtmlUnit. HtmlUnit is a GUI-less browser – a browser intended to be used programmatically and not directly by a user. The browser supports JavaScript (via the Mozilla Rhino engine) and can be used even for websites with complex AJAX functionalities.
HtmlUnitDriver is headless driver providing non-GUI implementation of Selenium WebDriver. It is based on HtmlUnit, fastest and light-weight browser implemented in Java.
You can enable JavaScript by doing either
new HtmlUnitDriver(true);
driver.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
What you need to do is to wait until the JavaScript is executed after get(url)
.
You can use Thread.sleep()
method for adding some delay.
HtmlUnitDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(BrowserVersion.FIREFOX_3_6);
driver.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
driver.get(url);
Thread.sleep(100);
runTest();
Update
As @Corey indicated in the comments, it could be nicer to use Explicit and Implicit Waits instead of Thread.sleep()
. As I don't use them these days, I cannot confirm, though. It would be great if someone test them and update this answer.
