Synchronization Statement

Object Synchronization Statements

win_wait_info("Payment","enabled",0,30);

obj_wait_info("StatusBar","label","Done",20)

Time Synchronization

wait(10) ; waits for the specified amount of time

Bitmap Synchronization

obj_wait_bitmap("Object","Img1",10)

win_wait_bitmap("Screen","Img2",10, 210, 175, 80, 22)

GUI Checkpoints

Verifies whether object's properties match with the expected results. Checkpoint differs depending on the object to be verified.

For Example:

Single Property check GUI checkpoints

List Box control - list_check_info

Button control (check box, radio button, push button) - button_check_info

Generic Object - Obj_check_info

Window - Win_check_info

Multiple Property check GUI checkpoints
obj_check_gui("progressbar","list1.ck1","gui1",25);
win_check_gui("Report","list1.ck1","gui2",4);

Bitmap Checkpoint statements:
obj_check_bitmap("progressbar","Img1",25);
obj_check_bitmap("statusbar","Img2",25,0,10, 50, 10);
win_check_bitmap("Reports","Img3",4);

Text Checkpoint statements
obj_get_text("Statusbar95",text) ;obj_get_text: retrieves the text within an area

Database Checkpoints
db_check("list1.cd1","dbvf1");

Log Statements
tl_step: lots message in the WinRunner report and changes test status
if (text == "Insert Done...")
tl_step("Check statusbar","Pass","Insert was completed");
else
tl_step("Check statusbar","Fail","Insert Failed");

Statements in Analog Recording Mode

move_locator

move_location_track(1);
move_locator_abs

type("ls\-l");

Analog Synchronization

win_wait_bitmap("Win_1","icon_editor",4, 855, 801, 190, 80);

win_wait_bitmap: waits for a window bitmap to appear onscreen. Bitmap may be full/partial window area. Optionally, bitmap filename may be omitted, thus synchronizing on window refresh/redraw.
