How can I get password?
[I have one web page after filling the information I will get a password to the respective user maild id provided in the registration page...if I want continue next scenario that password is needed.... how can I follow... the steps... I have to take that password from database itself.. or what else...]
If it's a good database schema, the database will be encrypted so that won't work. You will have to query the mail server and retrieve the information from there instead.
telnet mailserver 110
user {mailUserName}
pass {mailUserPassword}
retr 1
// this assumes that there's only one message there dele 1

Is that because the RDC locks the desktop when I disconnect?
[
]
We're running SilkTest scripts on our lab machines. The lab machines share a monitor through a KVM. We connect to the machines using Remote Desktop Connection.
The scripts are being kicked off through a Windows Scheduled task. We're getting the message "Window cannot be set active".
It seems like if I login to the box in the lab then all is well, but if I've recently connected through Remote Desktop Connection the error occurs.
Is that because the RDC locks the desktop when I disconnect?
If I did a reboot before I run the scripts would that solve the problem?
I'm just trying to figure this out, so could be completely wrong on this.
So, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Answer1:
You should be able to adjust a setting for the task to 'wake' or 'unlock' the desktop prior to commencing the task. I recall having to do something like that in the past when I did this.
Answer2:
It's because Windows Remote Desktop (WRD) appears to tell the OS that the video card is something other than the actual video card. This is because you have a limited colour gamut using WRD. There are other limitations. When you disconnect, it seems to tell Windows on the guest machine that there's no video card at all and it lets Windows figure out what's up the next time you log in.
One option that our network admin suggested was to use VNC instead. This would mean we would use a different method just to attach to the SilkTest machine we have. It wasn't worth it for me, but it could be for you.
1) Your KVM switch has to be an electronic one because if it's not, the monitor won't have a screen rectangle. This was a limitation of the old hardware.
2) You have to circumvent the windows login screen and some security measures to get to the desktop which is where SilkTest will be running.

SilkTest vs. Visual Test
[
]
It really depends on what you are testing. For complex web sites (pages not static, multiple browser windows, JavaScript), I would say SilkTest works much better.
In general, Visual Test is new to the web browser game. If it is a Win32 app that you are testing, VT is *much* faster than Silk and the code compiles down to a binary file that can easily be put on diffrent test systems. This is a *big* plus for Visual Test.
SilkTest will make the declaration file for you, so this saves allot of time. In VT, you have to make the declarations yourself, but if the product isn't huge, this isn't a big deal.
SilkTest also is great a capturing text on a page (either web or Win32 based). VT, last I checked, lacked this function. It is a useful function for verification.
SilkTest also has a nice verification function that it makes (a few keystokes and it's done). Real easy to change some of the hardcoded data here with data from a text file or other place. Nice for doing report verification where the layout is the same, but the data is diffrent.
Cost is another big issue. SilkTest is low in price, Silk quite high.
So, again, it depends on your needs, what and how you will be testing it.

If two objects have the same logical name say for instance OK. How does silktest identifies the object, Does we need to make changes in window declaration dialog box?
1. In anyone window two objects can not have same logical name, It will give compiler error.

For automating a web based application using JSP ...
[
]
For automating a web based application using JSP, there is a search textbox, a "Search" button, a listbox, a "OK" button, and a "Cancel" button. The "OK" button remains disabled by default. I need to enter a value in search textbox, click on search button, select the resultant value in the listbox and then the "OK" button is enabled.
Problem: When all this is automated, Silktest finds the OK button still disabled after selecting the resultant value, though the button is enabled.
Put one statement before clicking on save button
BrowserPage.flushcache()

How load testing can be done with silk international ?
[
]
Answer1:
SilKTest is not a load testing tool - it is a functional testing tool. You could do a crude load test by having Silk on multiple boxes and then running each one at the same time - but that is very crude.
You need Silk Performer or Load Runner or some other load testing tool for doing load testing.

Runtime Error in Silk ?
[
]
It may be programming error, since DB next is used to go the next data in the table , may be it is getting to the last value, and not getting any value there.
