message argument:
If no value is provided in this argument, any prompt without a message is considered a match.
For added flexibility, wildcards may be used in this argument. For example: given a message argument with value of
\{Please reenter your.\*\}
, TestArchitect searches for prompt popups whose message beginnings match the string Please reenter your. (See example below.)ヒント:In more general terms, this argument accepts regular expressions.
expected argument:
- For convenience, the argument headers expected, expected0 and expected1 are all used to reference the same item (that is, the default text of the most recent matching prompt popup).
- Numbers appended to the expected arguments reference only prompts in the recent popup history that have messages matching the contents of the message argument. Any other prompts, for the purposes of the current action, are ignored. The numbers correspond to the reverse order in which those popups were handled. Hence,expected references the most recently handled prompt popup satisfying the message text,expected2 the second most recent, and so on.
- In cases where multiple prompts satisfy the contents of message, a single call to this action can be used to check any or all of the respective default text strings. Specify as many expected arguments as there are texts you wish to verify, taking care to number them in correspondence with the specific matching prompts of interest. (See Example #2.) Note that this check action reports a PASSED result only if every one of the specified expected arguments matches the default text of its corresponding prompt.
- If you want to verify a default text of a single specific prompt popup, replace expected with your desire expectedN, for example, expected2. (See example #2.)
This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string
<ignore>
is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to<ignore>
, the action is skipped during execution.

Example - Case 2: A sequence of multiple popups
Scenario: You are testing an email registration page, with a button, Sign up, used for submitting a new email address:
Upon clicking the button, a prompt popup appears with one input field and two buttons: OK and Cancel.
注意:This first prompt popup displays the following:- Message: Please enter your email address
- Default text: [email protected]
An invalid email address is entered (e.g.
Doe
), and then OK is clicked to proceed.An alert popup is triggered to notify user of the invalid email address. It has one button, OK .
The test clicks OK in the alert to dismiss it and proceed.
An additional prompt popup appears emphasizing the need for a valid email address.
注意:This second prompt popup displays:- Message: Please enter a valid email
- Default text: [email protected]
A valid email address, e.g.
[email protected]
, is now entered, and OK clicked.The test then verifies the following default texts:
- The default text of the prompt popup whose message is Please enter a valid email.
- The default text of the prompt popup whose message is Please enter your email address.
(Hint: We can verify both default texts in a single action call by specifying prompts whose messages begin with the string
Please enter
)
