Description

« Hide

When the server is started with the -userExtensions switch and path to the user-extensions.js file (which adds a custom locator), my test works fine with the *chrome launcher. However, it fails with the *iehta launcher with the following error in the server console:

Got result: ERROR: Unrecognised locator type: 'ui' on session 151781

and in the client console:

Error requesting http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=click&1=ui%3D%3A%3Aarticle(index%3D1)&sessionId=151781:
ERROR: Unrecognised locator type: 'ui'
not ok 2 - click, ui=::article(index=1)
Failed test 'click, ui=::article(index=1)'
at ui-test.pl line 18.

Same thing observed in Selenium 0.9.2

I put a javqascript alert() in the user-extensions.js within selenium-server.jar, and it poped up.

Maybe the -userExtensions switch is being ignored in *iehta mode?

Furthermore, the user supplied user-extensions.js will be correctly loaded if the -proxyInjectionMode is added.

However, there are other issues with the -proxyInjectionMode flag (IE throws up because it does not recognise the @SESSION_ID@ token - but that looks like a different issue).

Workaround is to add the user-extensions.js to the core-path (core/scripts/user-extensions.js) in selenium-server-0.9.X-standalone.jar

The root cause of this is that when the iehta custom profile dir is expanded, the file specified on the commandline does not get copied over. Here is a patch for the HTABrowserLauncher which will overwrite the unpackaged one with what was specified on the commandline.

Applied adams patch in r2268. Loading of user-extensions for *iehta worked in my test after the patch.
