Assert/Verify a field with value as readOnly

Hi,

I'm a newbee and trying to use Selenium IDE to record my web appliction tests.

Could you help me with the assert text command, I have a field with value in it but that is readOnly.What will be the syntax to verify the value and also to ascertain that the field is readonly.

Many thanks

RKa

Re: Assert/Verify a field with value as readOnly

Also to add to the above the field is getting populated with a value from some other page. So its not an input field.

but a readonly table field with value in it. How can I get Selenium IDE to assert/verify that field value and to ensure that it is readonly.

Thanks

Ritu

Could you paste the html code of that field (with a couple of lines

above and bellow it).

Re: Assert/Verify a field with value as readOnly

Hi Santiago,

The code is below

table id="mct_days" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" width="100%">

<tbody>

</tr>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</td>

</tr>

This is what I'm trying to do,

<tr>
    <td>assertText</td>
    <td>//table[@id='mct_days']/tbody/tr[2]/td[3]</td>
    <td>exact:09:00</td>
</tr>

And I want to now is, how to ensure that this particular field is Readonly.

I'm unable to copy the picture here as it says am not authorised to do it on this website.

Please tell me if you need more details, I'll be happy to provide that.

Many thanks

Ritu

Re: Assert/Verify a field with value as readOnly

Readonly is only for input fields, tables are to present content, not

to receive. Sometimes certain interfaces emulate that using

javascript, tables and CSS, but the way they work is complex.

Is your AUT in a public domain? If not, could you paste the sourcecode

of the page?

Hi Ritu,

Try with the below code:

<tr>

<td>assertValue</td>
<td>mct_days</td> // Give the textfield name.
<td>exact:09:00</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>assertValue</td>

<td>//table[@id='mct_days']/tbody/tr[2]/td[3]</td>

<td>exact:09:00</td>

</tr>

Re: Assert/Verify a field with value as readOnly

U can use 'assertEditable' to verify it is editable or not.

assertEditable(locator)

Generated from isEditable(locator)

Arguments:

locator - an element locator

Returns:: true if the input element is editable, false otherwise

Determines whether the specified input element is editable, ie hasn't been disabled. This method will fail if the specified element isn't an input element.
