Webdriverscript not working as expected...


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have the below script.
It should return the second screenshot, however sometimes I get the first screenshot.
On some computers I almost 90% get screen 2, but on some others I get screen 1 (wrong screen) almost every time.

I have played around with "_WD_LoadWait", sleep or using "_WD_WaitElement", however I do not seem
to be able get the reason why my script is behaving so randomly.

Does anyone have some insights for me ?

#include "wd_helper.au3"
#include "wd_capabilities.au3"

For the Login, i think you can take the following URL: https://login.tecalliance.net

I want to automate the login process.
Your link seems like a very nice shortcut to this🙂
I will have a look, if I can implement this.


Besides that it still  gnaws at me (Dutch: het knaagt aan me) that running the script multiple times
results in diffirent outcomes.
So I would love the learn what I am overlooking😁

Haven;t had the time run and grab the full log, but I can post relevant Scite output here.
The websriver UDF is 1.3.1, however my full script (in another folder) uses the latest Webdriver UDF.

With the wrong response outputm I see "__WD_Post ==> Element interaction issue [14] : HTTP status = 400" where the diffirence is starting.
I didn't have any time left today to investigate why the script reproduce a diffirent result here while doing the same web page.

Hi @Jemboy 👋 ,

this is not enough. We need the full log of both versions. Because no information about your capabilities string which is essential to know.
Please simply set:

$_WD_DEBUG = $_WD_DEBUG_Full

... and run again. Post your logs and maybe we are able to help.

Also please consider to test your automation with different browsers. How is the behavior in MSEdge or how in Firefox?
Another question: Do you use _WD_JsonActionKey in your code? Because I reviewed the changes between v1.3.1 and v1.4.0 and there is nothing which should break somehow. Besides function _WD_JsonActionKey I am sure about this.

Best regards
Sven

@SOLVE-SMARTand @Danp2 I uploaded both FULL debug log files as requested :-)
The script was run under the following conditions:

  1. for both runs, the same computer was used
  2. webdriver UDF has been updated to the latest version (v1.4.0)
  3. to my knowledge I am not using _WD_JsonActionKey
  4. the script used, is 100% the script posted in the first post
  5. the computer is running WIndows 11 Home x64 23H2 (Dutch)
    tested this also on my Windows 10 Pro x64 22H2 at work, with same script results!

One thing I noticed, that the first run always results in the "wrong" screen as showed in my first post.
From the second run on, the script is running as intended. (done 6 re-runs after each other).
After every run, I always kill the chromedriver DOS box, to have the "same" run conditions.

When I wait several minutes and start the script again, the first run is bad again.
Subsequent runs immediately after the first run are all good runs.

Last week I installed an AutoIt "framework" so I can update my script from centrally.
I have migrated 3 scripts so far.
One of the "enhancements" was, that every time a script is started, it is centrally logged.

I can see that this particular script has issues, because according to the logs,
on several computers (not all) the script is restarted again within seconds of the first start.
So my users just seem to do a restart after the script misfires after the first run....

Hi @Jemboy 👋 ,

thanks for the explanation and the log files. I reviewed the logs and also your webdriver script and my assumption is: it's not a issue of the au3WebDriver at all. Out of the network tab in the Browser DevTools you can see some redirects that will be handled (by the js file content (which I reviewed)) differently in case of timing issues. So if in case of a bad network speed (network throttling) the redirection could be wrong or incomplete.

But this isn't important:
I tried several times for the suggested URL by @gmmg in this post which is https://login.tecalliance.net and had no issues to get on your expected login page.

My recommendation is, switch the URL and you are fine (I hope). Also consider to add more capabilities like in this example.
I hope this will help you.

Best regards
Sven

@SOLVE-SMARTThanks for looking into my problem. Also thanks for pointing me to the scrtip with the extra capabilities options.
The script I posted in this thread was the modified UDF webdriver example.
My production script does contain more settinsgs, however I wanted to have a clean as possible script to tackle the odd behaviour.

The reason I am hesitant of using @gmmg solution, is that it is not an official URL and might stop working in the future.
Nevertheless if I do not find a solution, I probably go that way.
For now I gonna make some time comming weekls to see how I can defeat the script behaving so strangely.

I do find an solution I will post it in this thread🙂

Alas @gmmg your workaround  https://login.tecalliance.net only partly works.
After login in, I get to another portal page with a button/widget, I do not seems to click automatically yet.
After pressing the button, I am back at the screen with the black pop-up.

However a positive note would be that (if I get to click the button), and not the popup, at least the user would be alreadly logged in.
Normally the users run the script only 1x a day unless yhey close the webpage.


At the below screenshot there is a href="https://login.tecalliance.....".
Instead of clicking the button/widget, I might be able to navigate automatically to the URL.
Is there a way to extract the URL with the webdriver UDF ?

On thy fly:

Local Const $sSelector = '//a[@aria-label="app TecCom Portal starten"]'
Local Const $sElement  = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, $sSelector)
Local Const $sUrl      = _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'Attribute', 'href') ; <== 😀
