[jira] Created: (MSELENIUM-53) selenium variables don't apear to work when run from maven

selenium variables don't apear to work when run from maven
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MSELENIUM-53
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSELENIUM-53
             Project: Maven 2.x Selenium Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: selenese
            Reporter: Jason R Briggs
            Assignee: Jason Dillon


I've run into a problem with a test that works fine from the browser, but fails when run from maven.  In a setup test, I use storeText to set some variables.  For example:

<tr>
        <td>store</td>
        <td>mytest.log</td>
        <td>logname</td>
</tr>

Later on I use the variables in another test:

<tr>
        <td>type</td>
        <td>logname</td>
        <td>${logname}</td>
</tr>

If I run this within the browser, the variable value is used correctly.  If I run from maven, the value is typed as ${logname} (i.e. not parsed at all).

Forgot to mention, I'm triggering the test as follows:

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                <artifactId>selenium-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <browser>*firefox</browser>
                    <startURL>http://localhost:8080/</startURL>
                    <port>5555</port>
                </configuration>

                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>mytest</id>
                        <phase>test</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>selenese</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <suite>target/classes/mytest-suite.html</suite>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

Update: looks like the problem occurs when running the same test with TestRunner.  So it's nothing to do with the maven-selenium-plugin.
