AngularJS

Post by ChuckM » Wed Aug 13, 2014 5:10 pm

Hello all,

I've searched the forum and Ranorex site but have been unable to determine whether anyone has had success (or issues) testing any AngularJS projects.

I'd very much appreciate an insights.

Thanks,
Chuck

Since Angular is just another JS framework working in an HTML page, I would guess that Ranorex can work with it. Ranorex supports HTML in IE, FF, Chrome, and Safari, on Windows.

You could download the free trial of Ranorex and see how it works for you.

I watched a webinar last night about moving to AngularJS. As part of the move, it was announced that ids could be removed from HTML code, which seemed to be flying in the face of any automated testing. This morning, I’ve just taken my first look at using Ranorex with an Angular project that is in progress. That project has almost no ids on elements. The below is a typical example of an rxpath on this project:

/dom[@domain='domainname' and @caption='SECRET_PROJECT | Explorer' and @page='index.html']//ul[#'side-menu']/li[pos()=0]/div[pos()=0]/ul[pos()=1]/li[pos()=0]/a[@innertext='Logout' and @href~'^http://domainname/SECRET_PROJECT/a']

Thankfully, it is easy enough to put ids back in, even when using AngularJS. To do this, the ng-attr-id attribute is used.

Regards,

John H.

There may be another reason not to work with AngularJS though, although I'm not sure if Ranorex works with it, as stated above. Apparently there are issues with Google's indexing of angularJS, so you got to know what you do unless you want to lose your chance of people finding you on Google.
Does anyone have any more information regarding this?

Have you been able to use angularJS with Renorex as my company are moving toward this, and I don't want to waste my time with this tool if it's not going to work

Hi nickhall36,

Can you please explain in more detail what exactly you want to do with AngularJS in Ranorex?
Is it possible to get access to your application or to a sample application?
It seems that you are also in contact with one of my colleagues by email and you also posted the question in LinkedIn.
It would be nice if you could choose one channel in order to communicate with us regarding the same issue.
This would save time and resources.

Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,
Bernhard

Hi Felix,

Welcome to the forum!

Do you have any issues with automating your web page?
In order to help you, I would need more detailed information.

Detailed information about web testing can be found in the following blog entry: Cross-Browser Test Automation

Hi,

I seriously doubt anyone here have a shareable "demo" for AngularJS automation. Have you already tried to automate your AngularJS project with Ranorex? It should be automatable as any other web-based app. You just have to start somewhere and then simply ask in case of problems.

Please add these details to your questions:
  • Ranorex Snapshot. Learn how to create one >here<
  • Ranorex xPath of problematic element(s)
  • Ranorex version
  • OS version
  • HW configuration

Hello!

I'm new to this forum and also new to AngularJS :roll: but very interested to see where would be the "start" button to start using it or take a look at an example.

Are there any plans to have a webinar?

Hi Maria,

On the Ranorex web page you can watch the latest webinars about web and mobile automation: http://www.ranorex.com/support/automate ... -time.html

Furthermore, I would suggest having a look at the corresponding user guide sections about mobile and web testing.

If you have specific issues with your app/web page, please provide detailed information about the use case and the UI structure (a Ranorex Snapshot would be very helpful).
