add the content of another test to the current test
- target receives the page address (from selenium tests root)
- text receives vars names and their values for this test as a comma separated list of var_name=value
nested include works
selenium IDE users Note :
In selenium IDE you won't be able to play your script in the editing window but you will be able to play them in selenium TestRunner.
Please add a note "why?"... (Selenium Core and IDE use different testcase object etc.)
[Jerry Qian]: I create a Selenium-IDE capable extension edition(Selenium-IDE1.0b2). Please use attachment: includeCommand4IDE_1_1.zip
- target receives the page address (relative path from base url or use absolute path)
- text receives vars names and their values for this test as a comma separated list of var_name=value
example of use
in the test :
| include | testpiece.html | name=joe,userId=3445 |
where testpiece.html contains
| this is a piece of test | ||
|---|---|---|
| open | myurl?userId=${userId} | |
| verifyTextPresent | ${name} |
as selenium reaches the include command, it will load
<location-of-TestSuite.html>/testpiece.html into you current test, replacing ${name} with joe and ${userId} with 3445
and your test will become
| includeExpanded | testpiece.html | name=joe,userId=3445 |
| open | myurl?userId=3445 | |
| verifyTextPresent | joe |
moreover if you click on the line with "includeExpanded", it will show/hide included lines !
notes
this extension is based upon XMLHttpRequest so your browser has to support it.

This user extension is available as part of the public domain.

First of all, thanks Thoughtworks people for sharing a great UAT tool.
Second, some reports with the include command:
Got a bug when passing stored variables to the parameter list, e.g.
<tr><td>store</td><td>a001</td><td>nick</td>
<tr><td>include</td><td>tests/core/createAgent.html</td><td>name=${nick}, pwd=12345</td></tr>
}}}Fix it: modify xpathExpr to accept anything in the third column instead of "text". ('cause all variables in "text" are replaced with stored values, hence "text" is no longer the same -> old xpathExpr failed).
New xpathExpr:
var xpathExpr = "//td/preceding-sibling::td[contains(text(),'" + locator + "')]/preceding-sibling::td[text()='include']/parent::tr"
Return if locateElementByXPath failed:
...
var includeCmdRow = PageBot.prototype.locateElementByXPath(xpathExpr, testDocument); //if (!includeCmdRow) return

Could someone please post an updated version of user-extensions.js.sample ? I've made the above changes and I'm still having issues.
Guillaume, I believe SVN Changeset above requires other changes as I'm getting a 'currentTest' is undefined error...
(Or if I'm completely wrong on this, and someone can correct me, I'd appreciate it).
Also, I haven't been able to track down the root cause, I'm seeing behaviour where nested includes (in my tests) work in Firefox, but not in IE (6.0.2800). (The tests included with the package do pass however...)
Thanks for the great work, this is a terrific extension to Selenium.. (previously I was using server-side includes to achieve the same results...)

Just spent some time trying to debug a problem with include command resulting in : "'document.URL.match(...).1' is null or not an object"
Actually this is because we were calling the tests without specifying any file name like http://localhost/qa/
It works if we call http://localhost/qa/index.html
It is also strange that we have to use ./path/testfile.html and not /path/testfile.html which will fail resulting in a "not found"

Hello all,
Hey guys, gone through the Selenium RC and found a really nice tool.
Well I have a small doubt. I want to do data driven test for my web application.
I tried the below following steps:
In my script, I added manually the data using store command and executed it worked fine.
Now what I want is if I have more than 1000 record, do i need to store all the 1000 records in my script? I hope this is disgusting... Well I should not... Can you please let me know how do I call all the 1000 records from a file (include and CSV). Please give me a bullet example.
Thanks,

Can somebody guide me in this? Can I use this in IDE and if yes, why would the error be? It looked like the source path error, but i've tried everything, still no satisfying results.

This is a quick fix. For me it works. I am not sure if this is the right solution.
I made the following changes to get this extension work with selenium 0.8.0:
user-extensions.js.sample (the include extension):
replace:testDocument = getIframeDocument(getTestFrame())
with:
testDocument = testFrame.getDocument()
root cause:
the function getIframeDocument() has been removed from selenium-core (selenium-testrunner.js)Robert

It should work in IE, though I have some problems with the file protocol in IE.

I've just attached version 2.1 of includeCommand as a full zip.
since 2.0-alpha there are a some new fixes mainly in constructing urls.
take a look at the tests for more examples (and most of the fixes/enhances)
the testsuite is adjusted to run with selenium 0.8.2
- I have left (commented out) the old open-urls to run it with previous releases of selenium
tested with firefox 1.5.08 and firefox 2.0
Not (yet) tested:
- IE and other user-agents
- seleniumRC nor seleniumIDE - though the fixes in constructing urls are to get this working
note: I changed the naming after inclusion, to be able to re-run already run tests
- -included changed to includeExpanded
- +included to includeCollapsed

there are a couple of bugs in handling urls with the chrome protocol.as a workaround you could change your url slightly to get it work:
chrome://selenium-ide/content/selenium/TestRunner.html?test=file:///c:/selenium/includeCommand_2_1/tests/includecommand/testsuite.html&baseURL=file:///c:/selenium/includeCommand_2_1/tests/&userExtensionsURL=file:///c:/selenium/includeCommand_2_1/user-extensions.js&auto=true
does this work for you?
the bugs are in handling the baseUrl:
1. baseUrl is not expected to be the first call-parameter
2. baseUrl is expected to end with a slash ("/")i think not a bug is:
- baseUrl has to point to the directory containing TestSuite.html

I'm using SC 0.8.2.
I think I caused some confusion by saying that the row has 2 columns. The HTML table row does have 3 columns, but it only has values in the first 2:
<tr>
<td>setTimeout</td>
<td>60000</td>
<td></td>
</tr>I tried putting a dummy value in the 3rd column (even though the setTimeout command doesn't require a value in the 3rd column):
<tr>
<td>setTimeout</td>
<td>60000</td>
<td>blah</td>
</tr>In this case, the included row is executed correctly on IE. So with IE, included files that contain a 3-column row with an empty 3rd column treat the row as if it only had 2 columns. Weird.

--The first two commands of my include file are not being executed
The only cause I can think of is: is your to be included testtable written the same way as any other selenium testtable?
is there an tbody element (important for usage in IE)
do you have an heading row (as in normal selenium testcases the first row is treated as an heading and ignored in execution, so does include)--Url construction in include command:
If I understand right absoulte urls do work
Using relative urls be aware, that the url to get the document to be included is treated relative to Your TestSuite
So the url is constructed like this: <URL-to-TestSuite.html>/<relative-include-URL>hope that helps.

I am launching the testrunner using the chrome protocol with the test parameter pointing to a file location and the baseURL parameter pointing to an http address. Selenium runs fine but include is having a problem it is trying to find my include script relative to the baseURL and not the test file location. Is there a way to tell include to look in the same location that the test script is running from?
Example chrome url:
chrome://selenium-ide/content/selenium/TestRunner.html?test=file:///D:/ivhm/sdsapps/apps/ivhm/web/test_scripts/TestSuite-IVHM.html&baseURL=http://localhost:8080/ivhm/&userExtensionsURL=file:///D:/ivhm/sdsapps/apps/ivhm/web/core/scripts/user-extensions.js&auto=falseSelenium log message:

I modified the prepareUrl function to use the path in the 'test' parameter when chrome: is being used AND also a new parameter 'getUrlFromTestDir' is equal to true. I felt that using a new URL parameter was the least intrusive option for setting a new test condition. The code could probably stand to be refactored but it does work.
This modification currently meets my needs. Feel free to use, abuse, or ignore my input as you see fit though. I will attach my js file to this wiki thread as user-extensions.js.includeCommand_2_1.modified

There are few comments on here about IE not always expanding an include properly and Robert mentions that it's because the third column has a blank between the td start and end tags (i.e. <td></td> ). He states that if a is put between the tags this will solve the problem.
It does however I have a large number of scripts and didn't fancy changing them all from <td></td> to <td> </td> so have fixed the code to do it.
What you need to do is change the IncludeCommand.prepareTestCaseAsText method to include the following:
// Replace <td></td> with <td> </td> for IE testText = testText.replace(/<\s*td[^>]*>\s*<\s*\/td[^>]*>/ig,"<td> </td>");
between the
// Replace <td></td> with <td> </td> for iE testText = testText.replace(/<\s*td[^>]*>\s*<\s*\/td[^>]*>/ig,"<td> </td>");
and
// LOG.debug(IncludeCommand.LOG_PREFIX + "replace vars with their values in testText");
Hope this helps

When the test suite is loaded using absolute path like "test=c:/blah/foo/TestSuite.html" on IE or "test=/c:/blah/foo/TestSuite.html" for Firefox.. the URL return by prepareUrl() is wrong.prepareUrl needs to check if subdir start with /[a-z]:/ or /\// and make these into file://c:/blah baseUrl. and if subdir start with http,https,file url already then use subdir as baseUrl.

- http://wiki.openqa.org/display/SEL/include?focusedCommentId=2450#comment-2450

Enhancements are:

- http://wiki.openqa.org/display/SEL/include?focusedCommentId=2440#comment-2440
- http://wiki.openqa.org/display/SEL/include?focusedCommentId=2082#comment-2082 Though I have no problems with empty rows in IE 7.0. But as it does not break something it's part of the new release.
Thanks guys for reporting and suggesting fixes.
I've tested the extension with it's own TestSuite with FF 2.0.0.6 (also with chrome) and IE 7.0 (also with HTA). I've not have an IE 6 handy so if someone could run the tests on this and post, if all tests succeed I would be thankful.
Note on selenium-IDE: There is still no code for use include in the IDE itself. Only testrunner mode will work.

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the new release, but I'm having a little problem.
Regarding line 297:
var preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, selenium.browserbot.baseUrl);
selenium.browserbot.baseUrl seems to be "chrome://selenium-ide/content/" which isn't where my files are. I replaced it with this:
var preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, testRunnerConfig.baseURL);
and that seems to work, at least when using the TestRunner.
Beyond that, what needs to be done to get the include command working in the IDE? We are just beginning to seriously use Selenium, and while we really need an include command, most of our users are not technically inclined, so it's very important that it "just work". As such, I would be happy to do a little development on the extension, if you could give me a little guidance.

– selenium.browserbot.baseUrl seems to be "chrome://selenium-ide/content/"
Sorry but I cannot reproduce this
selenium.browserbot.baseUrl points to where your TestSuite is.
All relative include URL are expected to be relative to the used TestSuite.I use the testrunner mode of S-IDE with an absolute file-url for the test-parameter (my TestSuite) and an empty baseURL-parameter. This way include works perfect.
– what needs to be done to get the include command working in the IDE
include is tightly chained with html files and the related testrunner classes in selenium-core
selenium-IDE has its own classes to handle selenese commands to be displayed in the firefox-extension windowso first of all IncludeCommand.prototype.doInclude and some of it called methods have to be refactored and adapted to the corresponding classes of IDE

An example would be great.

Hi Paul,
First of all I'm not using include for a long time now (more than half a year), so I can not provide support for include any longer. In fact I do not even have include handy for some quick tests any more.
But trying to answer your question:
If you "play with testrunner" from S-IDE the URL has an "test" parameter pointing to an automatically generated TestSuite. As far as I can remember this path has to be absolute and must start with file://
Did you try to have your own TestSuite.html file and the test URL parameter pointing to it with an absolute file-path?

Hi Robert,
Well thanks very much for responding even while you're not using/supporting include anymore. Much appreciated.
I still have a problem here, but it's a different error message now.
I found part of my problem in that I learned the hard way that user-extensions.js must be stored in the selenium/core/scripts folder (I had it in the current working directory).
Now it seems that include cannot locate the file it's trying to load. I get a 404 error on the include. So I'm wondering if you remember where include looks for it's files when running under the IDE-TestRunner option. Does it use the same location as the test suite?
When I get a chance I'll try to figure it out by reading your sourcecode. Still any advice you can offer will really help,
thanks
Paul
P.S. I am using include now in Selenium Core though and its working great. This will be hugely helpful. I'm hoping to have some IDE solution though as each time I improve a script I'll have to remove and thing reinsert the include statements.

How can I get the include command to run without expanding ? Or, else ensure that the expanded steps are not duplicated and run every time the include command is executed ?
I am using include to call re-usable commands in Selenium IDE. The problem I'm having is that it runs fine the first time, as it runs the recorded steps only once. The next time I execute the include command it actually runs the included commands twice, as it again expands the recorded steps called by the include command.

I modified Jerry Qian's 4IDE code. Instead of the injected code staying in the IDE test case (and breaking subsequent executions), it is removed after execution. You can the included lines popping in and out of existence while the test case runs.

So we'll // add a simple echo if it is the last. if (testCase.commands.length == testCase.debugContext.debugIndex+1) { // Using concat instead of push so that we don't trigger the TestCase's set-modified flag. testCase.commands = testCase.commands.concat(new Command("echo", "The include command cannot be the last line in a TestCase, so this command was added. It can be left in place or removed, as desired.", "The include command cannot be the last line in a TestCase, so this command was added.

And at the bottom of doEnd$Template$() (after the LOG line):
// Delete the commands that we injected in injectIncludeTestCommands. testCase.commands = testCase.commands.slice(0, beginTemplateIndex).concat( testCase.commands.slice(testCase.debugContext.debugIndex+1, testCase.commands.length)); // Set the current command to the next one after the injected block. testCase.debugContext.debugIndex = beginTemplateIndex-1; //Must refresh to syncup UI editor.view.refresh(); -

I modified Jerry Qian's 4IDE code. Instead of the injected code staying in the IDE test case (and breaking subsequent executions), it is removed after execution. You can the included lines popping in and out of existence while the test case runs.This makes include work for me under Selenium IDE 1.0.7.

ok, whis one is seriously missing installation instructions
i did not get it working yet, but my steps so far :- download latest zip archive;
- extract it;
- open selenium ide, choose options -> options;
- in "selenium core extensions" field (not plugins tab !), insert full path to the extracted javascript file;
- close & reopen selenium ide window.
that's how far i got. if i attempt to use "include" command, it does not complain that it is unknown, but instead throws at me "Unexpected Exception: message -> testFrame is undefined"
edit : looks like somebody else stumbled upon the same problem as well : http://old.nabble.com/Why--Open-Test-Suite...--in-TestSelenium-IDE-1.0-does-not-support-%22include%22-command--td21407217.html

Richlv,
Here are the changes I made to the JS to get includes to work for me using Selenium IDE v1.07 and play nice with the goto extension. All of these changes were written by others in this forum and it took me a bit to get them all in the right places:
open the js,
----
find: IDEIncludeCommand.prototype.prepareUrl"
change the line: preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, selenium.browserbot.baseUrl);
to: preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, editor.suiteTreeView.currentTestCase.file.path);
this allows you to reference your includes in relation to your test cases rather than the baseURL you are testing.
----
find: Selenium.prototype.doInclude
add to bottom of this function:
//Jerry Qian: add flowControl support for include template steps try { htmlTestRunner.currentTest.gotoLabels = {}; htmlTestRunner.currentTest.whileLabels = { ends: {}, whiles: {} }; htmlTestRunner.currentTest.initialiseLabels(); } catch (e) { } //End flowControl if (this.initialiseLabels) { this.initialiseLabels(); } //fixes goto extension commands and removes include code after it runs I think
find: Selenium.prototype.doEnd$Template$
add to the bottom of this function:
if (this.initialiseLabels) { this.initialiseLabels(); } //fixes goto extension after running include...
Hope this helps!

For anyone who cares, I have been trying to fix the issue I was having with included tests getting parsed and the escape characters getting transformed into HTML code. I tried all sorts of things, including using CDATA (<![CDATA[...]]> tags which also get parsed, a lot of 'creative' js writing, and everything else I could think of. Finally I broke down and added a few lines to the include extension js to change the HTML escaped characters back to their original format. It feels dirty but it is working. I will just add a new line for each character issue I run into. There is probably a better way to go about this, but I am not a developer and I need to move on. :)
If you are having the same issue, here is what I did. Hope it helps:
FIND: IDEIncludeCommand.prototype.injectIncludeTestCommands
JUST AFTER: newText = newText.replace(/<\/\s*td[^>]*>/ig, "");
ADD YOUR FIXES (I have three so far):
//when includes are saved, special/escape characters are getting parsed, then inserted using HTML codes. //Following lines replace HTML code back to escape characters before insertion newText = newText.replace(/<br \/>+/g, "\n"); //'<br />' to '\n' newText = newText.replace(">", ">"); //'>' to '>' newText = newText.replace("<", "<"); //'<' to '<'
EDIT: on further reflection, you may be able to simply add a javascript unescape() function on the string. I may play with that later...

I've noticed a problem for nested include function. When I use include in already included html file, selenium ide doesn't hide line with include command. Re-execution of scpits doubles number of include calls. As a result of test all the lines with nested include are visible with begin$Template$ and end$Template$ vars and in the other hand, individual calls of include are hidden correctly.
command target value include selHotelsSearchFormQsfReset.html Structure of selHotelsSearchFormQsfReset.html
command target value type dom=document.getElementsByName('City')[0] type dom=document.getElementsByName('CheckInDate')[0] type dom=document.getElementsByName('CheckOutDate')[0] include selHotelsConfigureScreenCapture.html selTestCaseId=1 The problem is in Selenium.prototype.doEnd$Template$ function. How can I check there is more then one begin-end block and delete all of them. Now if I have for example 5 begin-end blocks all four internal blocks will be removed... except external one. Function removed End$Template$ line, but every line after Begin$Template$ remains.
Selenium.prototype.doEnd$Template$ = function(locator){ LOG.info("End Template " + locator); // Delete the commands that we injected in injectIncludeTestCommands. testCase.commands = testCase.commands.slice(0, beginTemplateIndex).concat( testCase.commands.slice(testCase.debugContext.debugIndex+1, testCase.commands.length));Is there any chance to delete all lines from End$Template$ to first instance of Begin$Template$? If I have more than one instance of Begin$Template$ there is problem with find the first one:
command target value include selHotelsSearchFormQsfEdit.html begin$Template$ selHotelsSearchFormQsfEdit.html type dom=document.getElementsByName('City')[0] type dom=document.getElementsByName('CheckOutDate')[0] include selHotelsConfigureScreenCapture.html selTestCaseId=1 The red marked line is a command remains after completion of include [selHotelsSearchFormQsfEdit.html]

To make nested includes work you have to use an array of Begin indexes, pushing and popping the values as you go. Like this:
// Array to hold the starting position of the Begin$Template$ marker. Pushing and popping the position onto an array // allows us to correctly handle nested includes during clean up. var beginTemplateIndex = new Array(); // Mark the beginning of the include Selenium.prototype.doBegin$Template$ = function(locator){ LOG.info("Begin Template " + locator + " at position " + testCase.debugContext.debugIndex); // Add the current position to the tail of the beginTemplateIndex beginTemplateIndex.push(testCase.debugContext.debugIndex); }; // Clean up everything between the closest Begin$Template$ and this $End$Template$, and pop the position off the array. Selenium.prototype.doEnd$Template$ = function(locator){ // Remove the last Begin$Template$ from the tail of the beginTemplateIndex var currentBeginTemplateIndex = beginTemplateIndex.pop(); LOG.info("End Template " + locator + " at position " + currentBeginTemplateIndex); // Delete the commands that we injected in injectIncludeTestCommands. testCase.commands = testCase.commands.slice(0,currentBeginTemplateIndex).concat( testCase.commands.slice(testCase.debugContext.debugIndex+1, testCase.commands.length)); // Set the current command to the next one after the injected block. testCase.debugContext.debugIndex = currentBeginTemplateIndex-1; //Must refresh to syncup UI editor.view.refresh(); };

OUCH! The 1.1 version of this extension, in conjunction with goto_sel_ide.js and datadriven.js, worked beautifully to perform data-driven testing within Selenium-IDE. The 1.2 version of this extension causes a massive sea of red ink in the IDE's log window as soon as the "loadTestData" command is executed:

John: Thanks a bunch for the quick fix! I made a second blog post about data-driven testing with html test cases today, in which I simply told everyone to use the 1.3 version. And I added a Comment to my first blog post on the same topic, in which I mentioned your quick fix.
I'm not sure what the conventions and "rules" are here, so I don't want to do this myself, but could you please update the "downloads" section above so that it points to the 1.3 version? It's still pointing to the 1.1 version, and I personally think locating the "Attachments" link is a tad difficult.
Thanks again!

John: A couple readers of my most popular blog post (how to do data-driven testing with RC & HTML tests) have detected a few issues when using IE-7 & IE-8. Reader "marco" has all three points nicely documented in a Comment on my blog. I was able to reproduce all three problems on IE-8/XP.
He also sent me his modified user-extensions.js file with fixes for the first two changes. I made the third change in my test case, and ran it with his new extension on both IE-8/XP and FF/XP, and the test case now works on both.
So, could you please take a look at his modifications and either bless them or otherwise address the two issues in a new release of t his extension? I'll mail you a copy of the modified user-extensions.js that works so you can see the changes.

I encountered a problem when using Include and DataDriven with Selenese (html test) on RC (i use v2.0rc2)
When the include command is wrapped with a while command, where inside the while the parameters to the include command change due to the DataDriven file, the included test case will always see the variables of the firsts datadriven record.to overcome this i added the following code to the Include command:
// takes a parameter string and store each of its variables with its value Selenium.prototype.storeParams = function(paramString) { var paramPairs = paramString.split(","); for ( var i = 0 ; i < paramPairs.length ; i++ ) { var paramPair = paramPairs[i].split('='); this.doStore(paramPair[1], paramPair[0]); } } // this one is an existing method. just add a call to storeParams Selenium.prototype.doIncludeExpanded = function(locator, paramString) { this.storeParams(locator); }
Hope that helps.

Hi,
I'm trying to do a data driven test but keep getting the following error on the loadTestData step.
[error] Unexpected Exception: fileName -> chrome://selenium-ide/content/tools.js -> file:///C://user-extensions.js?1349279237932, lineNumber -> 62
I looked in the Include user-extensions.js file and line 62 is the following in the function IDEIncludeCommand.prototype.prepareUrl:
preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, htmlTestRunner.controlPanel.getTestSuiteName());
Based on Gabe's comments I tried to change it to preparedUrl = absolutify(includeUrl, editor.suiteTreeView.currentTestCase.file.path)
then added a lot of things based on his comments above, but I still keep getting the same error.
I've tried changing the file names and locations so they were simpler but I still keep getting the same error.I really think it's not working on this part htmlTestRunner.controlPanel.getTestSuiteName()
but i don't know anything about this or why it wouldn't work. Also, I'm using includeCommand4IDE_1_3.zip.If anyone could help that would be great.
Thanks!

Hi,
When include command is executed, the included test case steps are hidden. It does scroll in the Selenium IDE screen though, but nothing is visible for the included test case. Is there anybody experiencing this? I am using includeCommand4IDE_1_3.zip. I used include command extension back in 2009, it used to show all steps from the included test case, has anything got changed in the include command or in Selenium IDE? Any response is highly appreciated!

Hi,
I have been working with Selenium 1.9.0 and everything was fine. My requirements in my testing process need new functionalities like flowcontrol (labels,if/else,while..) and also include test in runtime. I found this great extension but It has not been possible to make a test with labels included from the main test. I have tested versions 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 of includeCommand4IDE and goto_sel_ide.js (19/6/2009) and other modified versions found over the net... I have read all the comments found here and also the comments on the flowcontrol extension site ../SEL/flowControl.. No solution found . Could anyone help me?
This is a simple example of the problem.. If you wish I could post another example with gotoIf... And other..
mainTest.html
echo "main" Include script.html echo "end" script.html
echo "includedTest" gotoLabel lab1 echo "echo not viewed" label lab1 echo "echo viewed" I always get incorrect jumps in the test..
Thanks in advance.

Found a bug where the command breaks if testrunner.html is called with querystring parameters. The querystring is not chopped off the baseUrl before appending the include locator. To fix, I made the following change:
//Need to remove possible query string. Eg: testrunner.html?test=myTestSuite.html&auto=true
var docLoc = document.location;
docLoc = docLoc.href.substr(0, docLoc.href.length - docLoc.search.length);
baseUrl = docLoc.match(new RegExp("^(.+/)[^/]+$"))[1] // base uri = char - / - chars other than /
