Using a Radio Button within a WebTable - michiusa69 - 04-04-2011

Hello Folks,

I got an Webradio Button within a Webtable. I know the position of the Webradio Button within the Webtable. How do I make QTP to select this Radio Button? I need to mention, that this Radiobutton is part of an WebRadioGroup and is therefore numbered by QTP. The count of the radio buttons within the group can change so. E.g. I can't make sure, that radiobutton #5 will be the same all the time. Who can help? Is there something like -> QTP - please go to row 10 and column 9 and select whatever radiobutton is in there - or at least tell me what button number it is ...

Hi Michi,

Refer the ChildItemCount,ChildItem methods in QTP help file.

You can do it easily Smile

Hey Sreekanth,

so as far as I understand, I can use this:

Code:
Set obj = Browser("XXX").Page("ABC").WebTable("DE").ChildItem(row,column,"WebRadioGroup", 2)

obj.Click

I know which Column and which row I want (variables row and column are filled).

Question: Is the index (in this case "2") based on the count of radio buttons within the WebRadioGroup of the specific cell or of the entire WebradioGroup? If so - I still would have the problem to identify the right RadioButton because I dont know, if a readio button realy is within the cell. Am I missing something?

A little bit more explanation ... Wink Here is the Webtable with onw RadioButton Group:

First Run

1,1 -> WebradioButton #0
1,2 -> WebradioButton #1
2,1 -> WebradioButton #2
2,2 -> WebradioButton #3

Secon Run
1,1 -> WebradioButton #0
1,2 -> NO RadioButton
2,1 -> WebradioButton #1
2,2 -> WebradioButton #2
-> see that the index changed? Last button is now #2 and not #3

Third Run
1,1 -> WebradioButton #0
1,2 -> NO RadioButton
2,1 -> WebradioButton #1
2,2 -> WebradioButton #2
3,1 -> WebradioButton #3
3,2 -> NO RadioButton

-> In this example, we got a new colum ...

So what I want to do is this: Dear QTP - please go to column X and row Y and select the correct (!) radiobutton by looking as its index Wink
I also found this code, but again you have to set the <index> which I don't know before running the test ...



Code:
set WebRadioGroupname=Browser("Browsername").Page("Pagename").WebTable("Tablename").ChildItem(<RowCount><Column Count>,"WebRadioGroup",<Index>)
ab= WebRadioGroupname.GetRoProperty("name")
Browser("Browsername").Page("Pagename").WebRadioGroup("RadioGrpLogicalNameFromObjectRepo").SetTOProperty "name",ab
Browser("Browsername").Page("Pagename").WebRadioGroup("RadioGrpLogicalNameFromObjectRepo").Select "#0"

Why dont you count the webradiobuttons and then loop through them to find the one you need ?

does it ring the bell Smile I would have posted the code, but since you have been so well in researching and posting it back, i would love to see you take this lead. I am here to help you if you mis-step. But try and let me know what you come up with.

RE: Using a Radio Button within a WebTable - michiusa69 - 04-07-2011

HeHe ... yeah, I will try - I was hoping that there is a Command for doing this: QTP, go to the cell X,Y and then press the Radiobutton within the cell. No chance at all?

Since you are working with a webtable you are lucky. Learn about a method called childitemcount for webtable.
