note:here urls are some for element exiest data and some are different
What do you see in the browser when you try to navigate to a page but have no internet access? Use Check App State to check for that before going to the next item.
I have some bulk data with urls in that in that I want some element exist urls only remaining urls need to be status as donât.but here when Iâm runing bot I will turn off my inter net then it take as bad url which is element is not exist but it was no internet .it was continuous to next url.without sending any system exception.how can I give system exception for no internet.
Try
Dim request As System.Net.WebRequest = System.Net.WebRequest.Create("https://www.google.com")
request.Timeout = 5000
Dim response As System.Net.WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
response.Close()
Connected = True
Catch ex As Exception
Connected = False
End Try
Try
Dim request As System.Net.WebRequest = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(URL)
request.Timeout = 5000
Dim response As System.Net.WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
response.Close()
Connected = True
Catch ex As Exception
Connected = False
End Try
Are you able to get a selector for the âNo internetâ text on the screen? Use Check App State, click indicate, and see if you get UI elements from the browser that will identify youâre on the âno internetâ page.
One thing to keep in mind with this is itâs a good start but it wonât differentiate between different reasons for failure. What if itâs just a bad URL? DNS issue? Internet access is working but the web server is down?
Error ERROR Validation Error BC30451: âConnectedâ is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level. Variable âConnectedâ is missing. Please use Data Manager to recreate it. Framework/Process.xaml
Yeap. I completly agree with you. The suggestion is a start point. We do not expect the internet connection to fail while running automation. But almost possible reasons to fail the result at the end is the same⌠BAD URL will break when try to navigate to it. DNS issue the same will occur etc. So if the case need to identify the root causes, even we using UI we need elaborate a good error handling mechanism
Another approach is not use dynamic URL to check the internet connection and use a fixed and stable one like google.com instead
This appears to work. Use Take Screenshot and donât give it a selector, output as image into a variable, then pass that variable into Tesseract OCR (or whatever OCR you want to use). Make sure (if youâre using Tesseract) to check âExtractWordsâ and put a string variable into the Text output property. Then you can check the resulting text for the words âno internetâ
Following the automation skeleton using single url (google.com). Check if it works for your use case and keep in mind the points mentioned by @postwick
I wholeheartedly second this. Always start with the core process, not the repetition. Add the repetition later after you have the core process worked out.
I even have a test project I use to code granular steps then copy/paste the activities to the actual automation. It keeps your actual project tidier because youâre not doing any trial and error there. This methodology also lends itself to organized variables and scoping - when you paste the activities into your actual project, the variables will be missing. So you go down each activity and add the variable you need. Doing it this way keeps the scope as low as possible, and then you can adjust it upwards if needed.
Note that after copying the activities from your test project over to your actual project, copy the files from .screenshots too - then the activity screenshots will appear properly.
