EVENT is a new experimental command to automate web controls that the classic TAG command can not automate:
- Drag & Drop
- Sliders
- Tricky date control
- Ajax drop&down boxes
To test the EVENT recording, please use iMacros for Firefox: Open the iMacros add-on, go to the REC tac, "Record Options" and select Experimental EVENT recording mode.
Currently the command is only available in iMacros for Firefox (we have to start somewhere...).
Syntax
EVENT TYPE=MOUSEMOVE SELECTOR="#grid" POINT="(333,252)"
Parameters
(to be specified)
Examples
Use the CLEAR command so that times of website response measurements are not influenced by using local cache data:
URL GOTO=https://moqups.com/#!/ EVENT TYPE=MOUSEDOWN SELECTOR="#preview-svg>svg>svg>svg>foreignObject>DIV" BUTTON=0 EVENTS TYPE=MOUSEMOVE SELECTOR="#preview-svg>svg>svg>svg>foreignObject>DIV" POINTS="(131,254),(132,254),(134,254),(136,255),(139,256),(142,256),(147,256),(153,257),(160,257),(169,258),(190,258)" EVENT TYPE=MOUSEMOVE SELECTOR="#containment" POINT="(204,257)" EVENT TYPE=MOUSEUP POINT="(386,254)"
Enable the EVENT recording mode
Record drag & drop events
Record date and time selection
Record the selection from within an "ajaxy" drop-down
