How to use SET_CURRENT_WINDOW_POSITION method of org.openqa.selenium.remote.Interface DriverCommand class

This error message...

org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: session not created exception from tab crashed (Session info: chrome=65.0.3325.181) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.37.544315 (730aa6a5fdba159ac9f4c1e8cbc59bf1b5ce12b7),platform=Windows NT 6.1.7601 SP1 x86_64) (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information) Command duration or timeout: 2.50 seconds Build info: version: '3.11.0', revision: 'e59cfb3', time: '2018-03-11T20:26:55.152Z' System info: host: 'USNBDFV9K12', ip: '10.23.4.80', os.name: 'Windows 7', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '6.1', java.version: '1.8.0_131' Driver info: driver.version: ChromeDriver

The error stack trace clearly shows your ChromeDriver binary details are not getting detected back as in :

Driver info: driver.version: ChromeDriver

Though your chromedriver=2.37.544315 and Chrome: 65.0.3325.181 are compatible your main issue is java.version: '1.8.0_131' which is ancient.

Solution

• Upgrade JDK to recent levels JDK 8u162
• Clean your Project Workspace through your IDE and Rebuild your project with required dependencies only.
• Use CCleaner tool to wipe off all the OS chores before and after the execution of your test Suite.
• If your base Web Client version is too old, then uninstall it through Revo Uninstaller and install a recent GA and released version of Web Client.
• Take a system Reboot.
• Execute your @Test.

from tab crashed

from tab crashed was WIP(Work In Progress) with the Chromium Team for quite some time now which relates to Linux attempting to always use /dev/shm for non-executable memory. Here are the references :

• Linux: Chrome/Chromium SIGBUS/Aw, Snap! on small /dev/shm
• Chrome crashes/fails to load when /dev/shm is too small, and location can't be overridden
• As per Comment61#Issue 736452 the fix seems to be have landed with Chrome v65.0.3299.6

Hence you may need to bump up to Chrome v65.0.3299.6 or later.

Update: The textContent attribute is a better option and supported across the majority of browsers. The differences are explained in detail at this blog post: innerText vs. textContent

As an alternative, the innerText attribute will return the text content of an element which exists in the DOM.

element.getAttribute("innerText")

The isDisplayed() method can sometimes trip over when the element is not really hidden but outside the viewport; getText() returns an empty string for such an element.

You can also bring the element into the viewport by scrolling to it using javascript, as follows:

((JavaScriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element);

and then getText() should return the correct value.

Details on the isDisplayed() method can be found in this SO question:

How does Selenium WebDriver's isDisplayed() method work

You have to pin your loggers in memory or setup a logging.properties config file. From the java.util.logging.Logger docs:

Logger objects may be obtained by calls on one of the getLogger factory methods. These will either create a new Logger or return a suitable existing Logger. It is important to note that the Logger returned by one of the getLogger factory methods may be garbage collected at any time if a strong reference to the Logger is not kept.

When a new logger is returned the log level is determined by the LogManager which by default uses settings from a logging.properties file. In your example, it is possible to see the following:

1. Call to getLogger creates a new logger and sets level from LogManager.
2. Your code sets the logger level to OFF.
3. G.C. runs and destroys your logger along with settings you just applied.
4. Selenium calls getLogger and creates a new logger and sets level from LogManager.

Here is an example test case to prove the point:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String name = "com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit";
        for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
            System.out.println(Logger.getLogger(name).getLevel());
            Logger.getLogger(name).setLevel(Level.OFF);
            System.runFinalization();
            System.gc();
            System.runFinalization();
            Thread.yield();
        }
    }

Which will output null instead of OFF.

If you pin your logger by holding a strong reference then step #3 never happens and Selenium should instead find the logger you created which has the level set to OFF.

private static final Logger[] pin;
static {
    pin = new Logger[]{
        Logger.getLogger("com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit"),
        Logger.getLogger("org.apache.commons.httpclient"),
        Logger.getLogger("org.openqa.selenium.remote.ProtocolHandshake")
    };

    for (Logger l : pin) {
        l.setLevel(Level.OFF);
    }
}

You are passing paramter <parameter name="Visit" value="123456"/> in your .xml file and you directly running your TestNG class. So it's not getting that parameter while compiling .

So you need to run your xml suite to provide a valid parameter to your TestNG class.

If I understand your needs correctly this can be achieved by combining the following:

• using a JUnit method rule which will give you the name of the current method
• creating a Log4j appender at runtime, and configuring it with the name of the method obtained you just obtained

Specifically, you need to create a custom JUnit rule. I chose to extend the TestWatcher as it seems most appropriate

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout;
import org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender;
import org.junit.rules.TestWatcher;
import org.junit.runner.Description;

public class TestMethodLogging extends TestWatcher {
  private static final String date = new SimpleDateFormat("y-MM-dd")
      .format(new Date());
  private Logger logger;

  @Override
  protected void starting(Description description) {
    String name = description.getMethodName();
    RollingFileAppender a = (RollingFileAppender) Logger.getRootLogger()
        .getAppender("rollingFile");
    PatternLayout layout = new PatternLayout();
    layout.setConversionPattern("%d{dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss} %p %t %c - %m%n");

    try {
      File logDir = new File(a.getFile()).getParentFile();
      File logFile = new File(logDir, name + "_" + date);
      logger = Logger.getLogger(name);
      logger.addAppender(new RollingFileAppender(layout, logFile
          .getAbsolutePath()));
    } catch (IOException e) {
      throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }
  }

  public Logger getLogger() {
    return logger;
  }
}

Once you have this you can place it as a rule inside your test class. A rule is simply a field in the test (carrying the @Rule annotation). In here I called it rule (not very imaginative, I admit). In order to log from your test method you need to call rule.getLogger().

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;

import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;

public class MyTest {
  @Rule
  public TestMethodLogging rule = new TestMethodLogging();

  @Test
  public void sumOfTwoInts() throws Throwable {
    rule.getLogger().error(
        "logging to a logger whose name is based on the test method's name");
    assertEquals(5, 2 + 3);
  }

  @Test
  public void productOfTwoInts() throws Throwable {
    rule.getLogger().error(
        "logging to a logger whose name is based on the test method's name");
    assertEquals(8, 2 * 4);
  }
}

When I run this test it creates these two files under my ~/Desktop/Selenium/AutomationLogs directory:

productOfTwoInts_2015-05-10  
sumOfTwoInts_2015-05-10

The content of the first file looks as follows:

$ cat productOfTwoInts_2015-05-10 
10 May 2015 19:59:58 ERROR main productOfTwoInts - logging to a logger whose name is based on the test method's name
10 May 2015 20:01:22 ERROR main productOfTwoInts - logging to a logger whose name is based on the test method's name
10 May 2015 20:01:24 ERROR main productOfTwoInts - logging to a logger whose name is based on the test method's name

Unfortunately the Selenium WebDriver designers explicitly decided not to include this functionality in Selenium 2.

It's a deliberate decision to not include this feature in WebDriver, since it's usually a hack to work around synthesized events not behaving properly. We'd rather eliminate this need by providing great support for native events, so we'll continue improving that going forward. A user would never fire a focus event, they would click the form control. That's what your tests should be doing as well.

With that said, you can execute any javascript code you want. Thus you should look into how to fire events with javascript. Take at look at this StackOverflow question for inspiration.

Then you can do something like this:

FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.ExecuteScript("[your fire event javascript code]");

I'm sure you could create a wrapper function to basically accomplish the same thing as fireEvent.

Unpack it and place somewhere you can find it. In my example, I will assume you will place it to C:\Selenium\iexploredriver.exe

Then you have to set it up in the system. Here is the Java code pasted from my Selenium project:

File file = new File("C:/Selenium/iexploredriver.exe");
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", file.getAbsolutePath());
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

Basically, you have to set this property before you initialize driver

Reference:

• Driver executable must be set by the webdriver.ie.driver system property

You will want to write a custom ExpectedCondition that queries angular to see if it is done. Here's one I prepared earlier:

    public static ExpectedCondition angularHasFinishedProcessing() {
        return new ExpectedCondition<Boolean>() {
            @Override
            public Boolean apply(WebDriver driver) {
                String hasAngularFinishedScript = "var callback = arguments[arguments.length - 1];\n" +
                        "var el = document.querySelector('html');\n" +
                        "if (!window.angular) {\n" +
                        "    callback('false')\n" +
                        "}\n" +
                        "if (angular.getTestability) {\n" +
                        "    angular.getTestability(el).whenStable(function(){callback('true')});\n" +
                        "} else {\n" +
                        "    if (!angular.element(el).injector()) {\n" +
                        "        callback('false')\n" +
                        "    }\n" +
                        "    var browser = angular.element(el).injector().get('$browser');\n" +
                        "    browser.notifyWhenNoOutstandingRequests(function(){callback('true')});\n" +
                        "}";

                JavascriptExecutor javascriptExecutor = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
                String isProcessingFinished = javascriptExecutor.executeAsyncScript(hasAngularFinishedScript).toString();

                return Boolean.valueOf(isProcessingFinished);
            }
        };
    }

This is assuming that your have defined ng-app on your html element. If you define it elsewhere in the DOM you will need to update the code above. This is pretty much stolen from protractor, it's checking to see if there are any outstanding ajax requests and checking to see if angular thinks it's in a testable state.

The important part is to execute this JavaScript snippet as an async script because angular is using promises to trigger a callback when it is ready. If you don't run this as an async script it will not work.

You will also need to set a script timeout on the driver object, this is the amount of time selenium will wait for the callback to complete before throwing a timeout exception. You can set it as follows:

driver.manage().timeouts().setScriptTimeout(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

It's then as simple as plugging this ExpectedCondition into a wait like so:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 15, 100);
wait.until(angularHasFinishedProcessing());

Hope this helps.

The fact that PhantomJS keeps sessions between tests is a known problem in GhostDriver, the Selenium Webdriver implementation in PhantomJS.

I suppose that this problem will be fixed with the PhantomJS 2 release. The bug is already fixed in GhostDriver 1.1.1, but there is no PhantomJS version which includes this GhostDriver version.
