Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

Hi everybody I am writing a Selenium test to test a Tapestry 5.3.8 web app, and in that test I retrieved the whole client-side page source into a String. It's a regular HTML page generated by Tapestry. Nothing special about it, it starts with http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";> and it ends wi

RE: Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

I'm not sure what exactly is so surprising, anyway if you mean why I want to test in that way, it's because the test must fail if certain texts are present anywhere in the page except for a certain div where their possible presence must be ignored. So I thought removing that div from the DOM and

Re: Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

Isn't this scenario better suited for a web testing tool like Selenium or WebDriver? If you really, really want to parse HTML into Tapestry DOM elements, you can use the nu.validator.htmlparser library, which parses HTML using HTML5 rules and presents itself as a SAX parser. You'll need to subclas

RE: Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

Thanks Thiago, I will look into your suggestion, I actually think htmlparser is even already used somewhere else in the application. I'm actually using Selenium WebDriver, and it's true, it's beautifullly suited for this. -Original Message- From: Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo [mailto:th

RE: Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

Typically you'd use the tapestry dom only in production code (pages, components, mixins etc) For verifying html in selenium tests you'd usually use Jsoup or geb or something or maybe even the java xml libraries. But not the tapestry dom libraries. On 6 Apr 2017 17:16, "Davide Vecchi" wrote: >

OK, I did not know that about the Tapestry DOM libraries. That explains a few things, and it settles this, I will use something else. Thanks for the help. -Original Message- From: Lance Java [mailto:lance.j...@googlemail.com] Sent: Thursday, April 6, 2017 18:21 To: Tapestry users Subj

RE: Creating an org.apache.tapestry5.dom.Document from client-side page source

Selenium has many features for verifying values in the clientside DOM by xpath and other selectors. Best to look at some selenium tutorials first On 6 Apr 2017 17:26, "Davide Vecchi" wrote: > OK, I did not know that about the Tapestry DOM libraries. That explains a > few things, and it settles t

Fwd: Mouse tracking with Tapestry

Hi, I would like to do mouse tracking with tapestry (know the coordinates of the mouse, the path of the DOM tree to the element that is being pointed and the text of that element). Currently I have a solution that works, but I think it is terribly inefficient and I hope you can make any suggestio

Re: Mouse tracking with Tapestry

Hi, I'm not sure this is what you need, but here is a library we used during a DARPA program to collect UI statistics including hovering, etc: https://github.com/draperlaboratory/User-ALE On the browser side it's fire and forget, and there is a separate server set up to collect the stats informati
