Hi  Ramamoorthy,

 

 

Thank you for using Syncfusion products. 

 

Yes, it will be support with VS2012 CodedUI automation Tool. For your reference here we have explain the Code UI testing procedure for GridControl.

 

Steps for Coded UI Testing:

Please download the following ZIP file which contains the source for “Syncfusion.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITest.GridExtensions.dll”. Before compiling the source please create a folder named ”UITestExtensionPackages” in the following location:

“%CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\VSTT\10.0”

You can type in run “%CommonProgramFiles%” to access the location. Then navigate to “\Microsoft Shared\VSTT\10.0” and create the folder ”UITestExtensionPackages”. After you create the folder please compile the following projects in the zip file:

1. Syncfusion.Grid.WPF.UITest_2010.csproj
2. Syncfusion.Grid.WPF.UITest.Services_2010.csproj

Run the “copy.bat” to copy these file to the above mentioned location.

We have also included a sample project with this attachment. Compile and create the exe for the sample application before running the test project.

URL for Source:

Hi,

When comiling the source code, I run into the following error. Do you know what's wrong?

Error 19 Operator '==' cannot be applied to operands of type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITest.Input.ModifierKeys' and 'System.Windows.Input.ModifierKeys'

This error occurs in:

private static bool IsLeftClick(MouseAction mouseAction)

        {

            return mouseAction != null &&

                   mouseAction.ActionType == MouseActionType.Click &&

                   mouseAction.MouseButton == MouseButtons.Left &&

                   mouseAction.ModifierKeys == System.Windows.Input.ModifierKeys.None;

        }

Hi,

I know that this is an old thread but I wonder if you have GridControl Coded UI support for SyncFusion V9.3.0.61 with Visual Studio 2013? Because With Visual Studio 2010 and 2012 I'm able to compile the source code but when I insert the dlls to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\VSTT\10.0\UITestExtensionPackages, there is an error message with the following information: 

The following package failed to load: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\VSTT\10.0\UITestExtensionPackages\Syncfusion.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITest.GridExtension.dll. Coded UI Test is now in an inconsistent state. Remove this package and restart visual studio to work with Coded UI Test. 

Thanks,

Francisco.

Hi Francisco,   

   

We have checked the given image reference and found that GridExtension assembly is loaded from 12.0 folder location. But it should refer from 10.0, if you are using Visual Studio 2010. You can avoid this error by following the steps mentioned in the below documentation.   

   

Coded UI documentation 

 

http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/119143/doc/Configuration_for_run_a_coded_UI_sample_and_detect_a_control_using_object_spy720714308   

   

Please check and let us know if problem persist at your side after configuring your system as mentioned in the above documentation. Meanwhile, we will check the issue on the given specification.
