Adding to the Selenium Automatic Test
There are a few things to avoid in IceFaces that trick Selenium -- here's what to do to make sure Selenium can test everything.
Things to do:
- All clickable images with hyperlinks must have an "alt" text -- if they don't, Cubic Test/Selenium will record fine but will sometimes fail on replay.
- Tables with clickable rows should have a fake link in them -- otherwise selenium won't record the click. The fake link should be an <ice:commandLink> with an actionListener that's null -- SessionBean1.nullAction works. Use this as your template:
<ice:commandLink id="outputLinkRowTitle" style="font-size: medium" value="{currentRow['title']}" actionListener="#{SessionBean1.nullAction}"/> - CubicTest/Selenium does not record actions on rich text fields -- i.e. FckEditor. I don't know why not, but you should plan your tests to avoid adding anything to rich text fields.
