Selenium 0.4 with Grails 1.0.3?

[Michael Berg-6]

Hi all,

 

Is there a problem with selenium 0.4 with Grails 1.0.3?

 

I'm following the short tutorial on http://grails.org/Selenium+plugin, but it does not appear to be possible to create tests:

 

C:\selenium-test\> grails create-selenium-test mytest.gsp

(...usual blabla from Grails...)

Could not execute method appContext.
No such property: appContext for class: CreateSeleniumTest_groovy

 

Anyone have an idea what might be wrong?

 

/Mike

Well, looking at the release notes for http://www.javathinking.com/?p=81, and in particular the comments below, one can read the following:

 

--------------------------------------------------

Gerd, I think I know the problem - I have been using a slightly modified version of grails - see here http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS-2534

 

This modification defines appContext in Init.groovy and allows you to define a custom context path in several ways. Hopefully this will make it into the next release of grails.

 

I’m sorry for the confusion - I’d completely forgotten about this dependency. If you don’t want to apply the complete patch, then adding

 

appContext=grailsAppName

 

to /scripts/Init.groovy at approx line 113, just before

 

configSlurper = new ConfigSlurper(grailsEnv)

 

might get it working for now.
-------------------------------------------------------

 

I guess that explains it. The developer is assuming we all are using a "slightly modified version of grails". Great.

I think it is a minor problem with the plug-in scripts which generate selenium tests.  If you are going to write your own selenium tests, then this error is really not a pain and can be ignored.

But, if you want to scaffold the selenium tests, then you can follow the following steps to get rid of this error (workaround):

* Go to plugins/selenium-0.4/scripts directory in your grails project
* Replace ${appContext} with "selenium-test" or whaterver is the name of your grails app

There are only 5-6 occurrences in 3 files or so.

Even better, use the following command (if you are on bash shell & have perl installed) to do the replacements. You should be in plugins/selenium-0.4/scripts directory when running this.

for i in `ls *.groovy`; do perl -pi -e's/\${appContext}/selenium-test/' $i ; done

Hope this helps,

Or even better:

 

Replace all occurrences of ${appContext} with ${grailsAppName} :-)

 

It's such a minor thing I hope the developer will release an update soon.

Sorry for the delay - This should be resolved now in grails-selenium-0.5
