ISSUE
Traversing Spark Dropdown list with large number of items Flex SDK 4.x using QTP
SOLUTION
The solution consists of two parts
PART 1
Change the Dropdown code [Application code] to include a property
useVirtualLayout=”false”
[for more details please refer : Using virtualization with list-based controls]
<s:DropDownList id=”DropDownTest” dataProvider=”{arrElementsDdl}” useVirtualLayout=”false” selectedIndex=”0″/>
as in the sample application provided Please refer code below : SparkDropDownFidelity182460106CODE
PART 2
Consists of using the automation Scripts as described below,
‘Get the number of children under the Drop Down
Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).Open
Num=Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).GetItemsCount
Print “‘GetItemsCount’ value for Spark Drop Down: “&Num
‘Loop through the items inside Drop Down using SelectIndex
For i=0 to Num-1
Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).SelectIndex i
‘Always open the list before checking for the items
Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).Open
temp=Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).SparkListLabel(“automationindex:=index:”&i).Exist
print “Object Exists ? : ” &temp
set SparkGetItem=Browser(“Browser”).SparkApplication(“SparkDropDownFidelity182460106″).SparkDropDownList(“DropDownTest”).SparkListLabel(“automationindex:=index:”&i)
‘Access the properties of the item
ItemAutomationname=SparkGetItem.GetROProperty(“automationname”)
ItemAutomationindex=SparkGetItem.GetROProperty(“automationindex”)
print “Spark Automationname : ” & ItemAutomationname&” Automationindex : ” &ItemAutomationindex
