How to detect Exception in stress test

[Desi]

Hi,

My question is related to software testing. Suppose we have a sample application under stress test with AutoIt.

Now let say an exception occurs in that application in terms of Message Box etc.

My question is how can we detect this unexpected behavior.

Thanks in advance

Use winlist to get a list of all windows. Check the list for allowed windows and react on the other windows appropriate.

This could be run in a separate script or enabled via AdlibRegister in the stress testing script.

The example for Winlist in the help file shows how to limit the number of windows to visible ones.

My 2 cents.

Thank you very much. I would try to use with OnEvent.

I have tried your solution but WinList is giving list of all windows instead of windows related to my application. So that does not work. Can you please suggest me anything else?

What is common to all Windows and Messages Boxes belonging to your application?

The same title (as a whole or in parts)? The same text somewhere in the Window?

If yes then WinList can filter on the window title or text.

Unfortunately there is nothing common between window titles, all windows have different title text.

So how do you know which windows/message box does belong to your application?

If you don't know, how should the script know?

The only common thing between all windows is their class name. All classes starts with "TAPP".

Fine, then you can use:

#include <array.au3>
$aWL = WinList("[REGEXPCLASS:TAPP]")
_ArrayDisplay($aWL))

Thanks buddy. Now It's working. Great help from you.
