Selenium click issue on expanding/collapsing ListGrid groups

[ESherbakova]

Hi,

We are having an issue to expand/collapse ListGrid groups by clicking the group expansion/collapsion icon(row) by Selenium.

We are using SmartClient v8.3p_2013-09-01/PowerEdition with Selenium IDE 2.4.0 on FireFox 12.

Please try the following example:

isc.ListGrid.create({
    ID: "countryList",
    width:"100%", height:224,
    overflow: "auto",
    dataSource: countryDS,
    fields:[
        {name:"countryCode", width: 300},
        {name:"countryName", width: 300},
        {name:"government", width: 300},
        {name:"continent", width: 300},
        {name:"capital", width: 300},
        {name:"member_g8", width: 300},
        {name:"independence", width: 300},
        {name:"area", width: 300},
        {name:"population", width: 300},
        {name:"gdp", width: 300}
    ],
    groupStartOpen:"all",
    groupByField: 'continent',
    autoFetchData: true

})

And the selenium statement we are using is
selenium.click("scLocator=//ListGrid[ID=\"countryList\"]/body/row[4]/col[fieldName=countryCode||0]");

We notice that if we scroll the horizontal bar to the middle of the listgrid, the expansion/collapsion works by selenium.click(). It may happens because in your core-extensions we are using for doClick method, it tries to mouse down some coords hidden in the screen. (Due to the horizontal overflow: for the expansion/collapse row it only have one column and the X coords for this column got from isc.AutoTest.getPageCoords(scLocator) seems hidden in the screen).

Thanks!

We've reproduced this issue and are deciding on a solution. If you'd like to upgrade to SC 9.0p, it's fixed there and in SC 9.1d.

Hi
As mentioned above, this issue is resolved in 9.0 and 9.1.
Unfortunately back-porting the code changes to 8.3 may not be practical.

There may be a way to workaround this in 8.3, but first can you let us know if this issue is a blocker for you / whether upgrading to 9.0 might be an option for you?

Thanks for the quick response!

We are still evaluating the upgrade to 9.0, so we are not going to do it right away. We have a workaround for this issue so we believe it is not a trouble to us now.

Thanks for letting us know. We're not going to attempt a backport to 8.3 at this time. If this suddenly becomes a priority for you for some reason, please let us know and we'll revisit.
