UFT Developer Grid code samples (.NET SDK)

The following code samples show how to lock a UFT Developer grid node that provides the capabilities required for your test, and then perform operations on that node.

Lock a node as part of the launch browser step

Call BrowserFactory.Launch with a browser description that includes environment capabilities. This call locks a node with the described environment, launches the browser on the node, and returns a browser handle.

[TestMethod]
public void Grid_LaunchBrowser_BrowserDescWithEnvDesc()
{
       string nodeOsType = "Windows";                   // Set this to the node OS type
       string nodeOsVersion = "7";                      // Set this to the node OS version
       BrowserType browserType = BrowserType.Chrome;    // Set this to the requested browser type
       string browserVersion = ">57";                   // Set this to the requested browser version

       // Create a browser description object that includes also the required environment 
       var browserDesc = new BrowserDescription();
       browserDesc.Set("type", browserType);
       browserDesc.Set("version", browserVersion);
       browserDesc.Set("ostype", nodeOsType);
       browserDesc.Set("osversion", nodeOsVersion);

       // Launch the browser (the required DesktopEnvironment will be locked for you behind the scenes)
       var browser = BrowserFactory.Launch(browserDesc);
    
       // Your test code goes here 

       browser.Close();
}

Lock a node and then launch a browser on that node

Call EnvironmentFactory.Get with an environment description. This calls locks a node with the described environment and returns an environment handle.

Call BrowserFactory.Launch with a browser description and the environment handle to launch the browser on the locked node.

[TestMethod]
public void Grid_LaunchBrowser_OnSpecifiedEnv()
{
       string nodeOsType = "Windows";               // Set this to the node OS type
       string nodeOsVersion = "7";                  // Set this to the node OS version
       BrowserType browserType = BrowserType.Chrome;    // Set this to the requested browser type
       string browserVersion = ">57";               // Set this to the requested browser version
      
       // Create an environment description object that includes required environment capabilities
       var envDesc = new EnvironmentDescription();
       envDesc.Set("ostype", nodeOsType);
       envDesc.Set("osversion", nodeOsVersion);

       // Lock a matching desktop environmentvar env = EnvironmentFactory.Get(envDesc);

       // Create a browser description object that includes only browser description 
       var browserDesc = new BrowserDescription();
       browserDesc.Set("type", browserType);
       browserDesc.Set("version", browserVersion);

       // Launch the browser on the locked desktop environment 
       var browser = BrowserFactory.Launch(browserDesc, env);

       // Your test code goes here 

	browser.Close();
}

Lock a node and perform operations on a desktop application

Call EnvironmentFactory.Get with an environment description. This calls locks a node with the described environment and returns an environment handle (env).

Call env.Describe to specify the calculator application on the node, and then press its buttons.

[TestMethod]
public void Grid_Describe_ClickOnDescribedObject()
{
       string nodeOsType = "Windows";       // Set this to the node OS type
       string nodeOsVersion = "7";          // Set this to the node OS version
 
       // Create capabilities map, convert it to environment description and lock a matching desktop environment
       var capabilities = new Dictionary<string, object>();
       capabilities.Add("osType", nodeOsType);
       capabilities.Add("osversion ", nodeOsVersion);
       var env = EnvironmentFactory.Get(EnvironmentDescription.FromDictionary(capabilities));
    
       // Describe a window hierarchy under the desktop environment
       var calculator = env.Describe<IWindow>(new WindowDescription
	      {
	 	IsChildWindow = false,
		IsOwnedWindow = false,
		WindowClassRegExp = "CalcFrame",
		WindowTitleRegExp = "Calculator"
	      });

       // Your test code goes here.
       // e.g. this is how you click on a button in the desktop application:
       var btn = calculator.Describe<IButton>(new ButtonDescription
	      {
		  NativeClass = "Button",
		  Text = "",
	  	  WindowId = 135
	      });
         
       // Click 
       btn.Click();
}

Lock a node and perform operations using the node's mouse

Call EnvironmentFactory.Get with an environment description. This calls locks a node with the described environment and returns an environment handle (env).

Use env.Mouse to gain access to the node's mouse and use it for operations.

[TestMethod]
public void Grid_DeviceReplay_Mouse()
{
       string nodeOsType = "Windows";  // Set this to the node OS type
       string nodeOsVersion = "7";     // set this to the node OS version


       // Create capabilities map, convert it to environment description and lock a matching desktop environment   
       var capabilities = new Dictionary<string, object>();
       capabilities.Add("osType", nodeOsType);
       capabilities.Add("osversion ", nodeOsVersion);
       var env = EnvironmentFactory.Get(EnvironmentDescription.FromDictionary(capabilities));

       // Get Mouse to perform low-level mouse actions
       var mouse = env.Mouse;

       // Your test code goes here.
       // e.g. this is how you right-click on point:
       mouse.Click(new Point(80,80), MouseButton.Right);
}
