Parent document load in Browser automation

vigneshShankar — Sun, 13 Mar 2022 18:19:00 GMT

Hello Everyone,

Is there any possible option to validate parent document or document load within browser automation scope?

Because in my automation, I have only one feasible to check with "element exist" that one also not worthwhile for some of the cases yet we have provided quite time on conditional wait stage. Can anyone help with that?

Thanks

Hi Vignesh,

In the spying mode, 'Browser' mode, we do have the 'Parent Document Loaded' action under wait conditions for any element that has been spied using the same. The 'Document Loaded' functionality was removed which used to be present earlier in the 'HTML' mode. You can refer to the below sample workflow for the same:

If you don't get this option in you Wait stage, then could you let me know which version of Blue Prism are you using and which browser you have been interacting with so that I can dig a bit further on the same.

NOTE: I am using the Blue Prism ver.6.10.4 along with Google Chrome browser in the above shown screenshot

Hi Devneet,

Thanks for your support on this issue. Unfortunaly, we can't able to see the parent document load option in wait stage.

We are using blue prism version 6.8.1 and with Google Chrome Browser..

Thanks

Hi Vignesh,

Thanks for letting us know your version of Blue Prism. As per the official release notes of Blue Prism ver.6.9 which got released on September 2020, it has been stated that a new enhancement of introducing the Parent Document Loaded condition under wait stage was added as you can see from the below screenshot.

Perhaps, this is why you are not able to see that option in your version 6.8. I did some research on your issue and there is a workaround that you can perhaps follow which as follows:

Go to you application modeller and create an element indicating the root HTML tag of your webpage as shown below:

Now, create two data items called 'JS Fragment' and 'JS Invoke Fragment' such that the initial value of 'JS Fragment' is as follows:

function CreateLoadedElement(){
var docLoaded = document.createElement("PageLoaded");
document.head.appendChild(docLoaded);
}

Now, set the initial value of 'JS Invoke Fragment' as:

window.onload = CreateLoadedElement();

Use a navigate stage where you drag the root HTML element and select the action as: 'Invoke Javascript Fragment' with the 'Fragment' parameter as the 'JS Fragment' data item value

Now click on 'Add' button and add one more action for the root HTML element with same action as before: 'Insert Javascript Fragment' and the 'Fragment' parameter should now have the value of the data item 'JS Invoke Fragment' as shown below:

Now use a wait stage with the same HTML root element and use the 'Check Exists' action:

The shown workflow below is almost an equivalent of the Parent Document Loaded action which you can use in several ways. You can use this page in other pages where you actually want to invoke these set of actions:
