Hi

Is anyone using the channel testing software mentioned in the roku developers blog this month, apart from channel should be launched all my tests seem to fail e.g. test 2 in the basic_tests robot test shows

Full Name:Start / End / Elapsed:Status:Message:

Basic tests.Check if details screen showed

20191229 13:56:55.110 / 20191229 13:57:10.035 / 00:00:14.925

FAIL (critical)

Can't find element

I have a details screen and it loads fine I don't know what these error message mean anyone had the same problem? or know where there is documentation specifically for the error messages produced by the robot tests thanks

Hi there

Its the same for me also. Basically the identifier using text is not working.

I removed all text verifications from test 3 and it passed.  There are other locators like attribute and tag that can be used to identify elements but I am quiet new to Roku and haven't figured out how to find those yet. 

Any documentation or help on this would be much appreciated.

So what firmware version are you on? Your device must be running Roku OS 9.1 or greater to use the test automation software. 

Please attach your channel and test script and we'll take a look

Thanks for pointing that out. I was using a lower version and thus the issue . Now the tests run correctly.

Cheers

Thanks for the replies I realised if I changed the script I could get the details passed thanks for the help

Hi @here,

I (my python scripts) have been able to find elements using "text" and "tag", both using one or both of these parameters when looking for some element or a parent of an element 

web_driver.verify_is_screen_loaded({"elementData": [{"using": "tag","value": "MenuItemWithImage"}]}) 

web_driver.verify_is_screen_loaded({"elementData": [{"using": "text", "value": "Home"}], "parentData": [{"using": "tag", "value": "MenuItemWithImage"}]})

 However I haven't had any success when using "attributes" 

web_driver.verify_is_screen_loaded({"elementData": [{"using": "text", "value": "Home"}, {"using": "attr","attribute": "color", "value": "some value"}]})

Has anybody has any luck with this problem?

Also has anybody managed to identify playback element and maybe read its status (paused, stopped, play etc)
