Identifying Tree Items with RegEx

[knarayan]

Hello,

I had the following issue:
- I'm able to get what looks to be a valid "regular expression" to capture a tree element but upon execution of the test, I get a failure (WidgetNotFound exception). The regular expression looks to be correct to me and as you can see in the stack trace it is identifying the item I'm trying to get access to in the tree (Item in bold and given item list contains the item in Bold) - I'm not sure what the issue is as the node name contains a "/" so I have to use the //// to escape to give the exact string name of the tree item - any suggestions? :

Thanks!

Code: Select all

      ui.click(new TreeItemLocator("myMdaService/src\\\\/main\\\\/resources",
            new ViewLocator("org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer")));

Hi Phil,

Hello Kesavan,

Sorry for the slow response. The team has been traveling for conferences (after busily preparing for a release).

Could you try the following?:

ui.click(new TreeItemLocator("myMdaService/src\\/main\\/resources"));

I think your original expression had too many escapes...

Let us know if that helps.

Thanks!

Thank you! I did get the Tech Support response and tried it out and it worked!
I think the confusion for me may have been the out of the box recorder output having the extra escape characters - is that still an issue: should the recorder output the correct regular expression for selecting that Tree Item.

Thanks!

Emitting regular expressions (rather than literal paths) is something we've discussed but have not finalized. If you would like to see this happen, feel free to send a feature request to support.

Thanks for following up!
