    Concepts: creating, renaming, copying, extracting2
    Post last edited Yesterday by Wim Heemskerk

    Rename is broken for concepts. Users expect it to have the same effect (active the same refactoring) as the Rephrase, but it doesn't.

    In a scenario where it is used I can rename a concept with Rephrase the step. Likewise when I have opened the concept in the editor, I can use Rephrase the Open Concept. However, when I Rename it in the Concepts view (or some other view like the Package Explorer), the changes are not propagated properly. (Scenarios and concepts using the concept break, the Concepts view resorts it but doesn't rename it. (Etc.?))

    Additionally:

    • It doesn't seem possible to create a new concept, one can only extract it.
    • It isn't possible to use a concept created from an existing one. I.e. when you copy a concept, paste it under a new name and adapt it, it isn't useable. (Doesn't show up in Concepts view, nor autocomple, and even when you type it correctly yourself in a scenario, Twist maintains it still needs to be created.)
    • It isn't possible to extract a single step into a concept. (Workaround: extract two steps, delete one.)
      This is relevant to us, as to us concepts aren't just a bunch of steps for reuse, but also a different layer in the tests. In the scenarios we express business intent, in the concepts the (user) actions needed (like 'press next'), including testing actions ('verify texts') that are not of business value themselves. A functional step may translate into just a single click, but it's still a translation to us.

    JUnit Runner1
    Post last edited February 9, 2012 by Ahmed Omarjee

    Is there any intention to provide a JUnit Runner to perform test execution, given that almost any IDE and/or build tools supports execution of JUnit tests?

    IntelliJ is my preferred development environment and given that scenarios are simple text files, being able to run scenarios as JUnit tests would make it possible to run the tests without the need for a custom IDE plugin.

    Maven plugin

    Is there any intention to provide a native maven plugin with better support for maven folder structures and lifecyle as opposed to using the ant task?

    Is it possible to place the scenarios and any other associated workflow/rules classes in a more maven friendly source folder structure i.e. something like src/main/scenarios and src/main/java etc.

    Passing VM Arguments when running Frankestein Recorder
    Post posted September 29, 2009 by Ahmed Omarjee

    There seems to be no way to specify additional VM level arguments (in my case I need to specify -Djava.library.path=/some/important.dll) prior to running the recorder.

    ERROR: Problem capturing screenshot: null5
    Post last edited February 9, 2012 by James O'Sullivan

    Hi,

    I'm trying to use the selenium captureScreenshot method to get a screenshot at a particular part of a test run. 

    When selenium.captureScreenshot("c:\tmp\test.png") gets executed I get the error below:

    com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: Problem capturing screenshot: null
        at com.thoughtworks.selenium.HttpCommandProcessor.doCommand(HttpCommandProcessor.java:73)
        at com.thoughtworks.selenium.DefaultSelenium.captureScreenshot(DefaultSelenium.java:546)
        at vsm.ReportActions.saveAliquots(ReportActions.java:173)
    C:\Program Files\twist\workspace\VSM\scenarios\Report Released Tissue.scn:13

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: OutOfMemoryError3
    Post last edited February 9, 2012 by David Mack
    Hello, I don’t understand this error at all, I hope someone can explain it. It does not seem to allow the test to end (firefox closes but stop button is still enabled), also the test doesn’t have any errors or fails. Full Error message (If I posted this the wrong way someone help me out): 41342 WARN com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.RemoteSession – EXCEPTION, please implement com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.RemoteSession.exceptionCaught() for proper handling:java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: OutOfMemoryError at sun.awt.windows.WRobotPeer.getRGBPixels(Native Method) at sun.awt.windows.WRobotPeer.getRGBPixels(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Robot.createScreenCapture(Unknown Source) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.ErrorInfo.captureScreenshot(ErrorInfo.java:63) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.ErrorInfo.<init(ErrorInfo.java:36) at com.thoughtworks.tide.core.binding.java.JavaInstance.notifyTestListener(JavaInstance.java:53) at com.thoughtworks.tide.core.binding.java.JavaInstance.invoke(JavaInstance.java:39) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.MethodInstance.execute(MethodInstance.java:42) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.java.Java.executeMethod(Java.java:71) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.java.Java.access$2(Java.java:67) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.java.Java$1.run(Java.java:62) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.PlaybackExecutionContext.run(PlaybackExecutionContext.java:22) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.java.Java.execute(Java.java:60) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.DefaultFixtures.execute(DefaultFixtures.java:46) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.DefaultFixtures.execute(DefaultFixtures.java:42) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.ListItem.execute(ListItem.java:167) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.List.execute(List.java:106) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.AbstractElement.execute(AbstractElement.java:492) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.Head.execute(Head.java:133) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.Scenario.execute(Scenario.java:93) at com.thoughtworks.twist.core.execution.ScenarioExecutor.validateAndExecute(ScenarioExecutor.java:54) at com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.service.remote.DefaultRemoteProcessService.runScenario(DefaultRemoteProcessService.java:74) at com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.event.PlaybackAcknowledgement.execute(PlaybackAcknowledgement.java:24) at com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.event.PlaybackAcknowledgement.execute(PlaybackAcknowledgement.java:1) at com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.event.AbstractEvent.execute(AbstractEvent.java:28) at com.thoughtworks.twist.messaging.RemoteSession.messageReceived(RemoteSession.java:67) at org.apache.mina.common.DefaultIoFilterChain$TailFilter.messageReceived(DefaultIoFilterChain.java:743) at org.apache.mina.common.DefaultIoFilterChain.callNextMessageReceived(DefaultIoFilterChain.java:405) at org.apache.mina.common.DefaultIoFilterChain.access$1200(DefaultIoFilterChain.java:40) at org.apache.mina.common.DefaultIoFilterChain$EntryImpl$1.messageReceived(DefaultIoFilterChain.java:823) at org.apache.mina.common.IoFilterEvent.fire(IoFilterEvent.java:54) at org.apache.mina.common.IoEvent.run(IoEvent.java:62) at org.apache.mina.filter.executor.UnorderedThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(UnorderedThreadPoolExecutor.java:480) at org.apache.mina.filter.executor.UnorderedThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(UnorderedThreadPoolExecutor.java:435) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Thanks,

    Selenium web recorder seems to conflict with ASP.NET Ajax4
    Post last edited February 9, 2012 by James O'Sullivan
    I’ve just come across an issue when trying to use the web recorder with a page that uses ASP.NET Ajax. The error I’m getting in the error console is the following: Error: missing ; before statementSource File: http://localhost/VSMDevJJOS/ScriptResource.axd?d=8EHbmBWK30h00qDYjMnaAkpvtXl-y2T6LSTnVAxNSVwMUZd-3ei0pF4tSDSaDuL8hQCjbnd85aRtQYNUie0raluYeFiGitT4uqPN0P88w1U1&t=ffffffffa7353078Line: 2, Column: 1Source Code: The source file reference above refers to the MicrosoftAjax.js script. This is causing my calendar picker and cascading dropdowns not to work, but only through the web recorder. They work fine when accessing the site directly through Firefox. I’m almost positive that this was working through the recorder last week.
