App Task Validation

Introduction to the UI

Introduction to the UI

Tasks to test

• Top level business processes to validate

• Description and Worker User ID required

• Start recording: Clears previously recorded steps (if any) and resets user session.

• Starts XML Recorder component

• Run task: Launches the playback screen

• View task history: Previous run data

Recorded steps

• All activities (for selected user) in warehouse mobile app are saved.

• Input XML (Mobile App -> AOS)

• Output XML (AOS -> Mobile App)

• XML can be viewed (and modified) via “View XML”

Recorded steps – Validation Strategy

• No Validation: Step will be skipped

• Full XML Validation: Exact Output XML must match

• Data Value (recommended): Specific data validated based on user-defined rules

Task input data

• Replacement variables

• Control names from WHS app XML• Use variable for control data

• RSAT can replace values

Task input data

• Replacement variables

• Special case – override default mapping

• @VariableName

• Will use variable instead of normal task input data variable

• Must edit the XML

• Variable type• User-Set• Server-Set <Control controlType="text" name="LicensePlateId"

label="LP" newLine="1" data="@TargetLicensePlateIdVar"type="String" length="25" error="0" defaultButton="0" enabled="0" selected="" color="#000000" Status="1" NumDecimals="-1" DisplayArea="InfoAndSecondaryInputArea" PreferredInputMode="Scanning" PreferredInputType="Alpha" DisplayPriority="50" DisplaySubPriority="20" DataSequence="5" AttachedTo="" InstructionControl="" Footer1="" Footer2="" InputType="2694" />

Task input data

• Generate Variables• Try to create variables for all steps

• Note: modifies XML

Validation Rules

• Data Value validation

• Create a set of validation rules

• Based on control data from mobile app

Validation Rules

• Data Value validation

• Create a set of validation rules

• Based on control data from mobile app

• All controls from Output XML are listed• Can validate existence/value

Validation Rules

• Data Value validation

• Create a set of validation rules

• Based on control data from mobile app

• All controls from Output XML are listed• Can validate existence/value

• Current validation rules• Exists, Not exists

• Equality

• Greater/Less than

Validation Rules

• Data Value validation

• Create a set of validation rules

• Based on control data from mobile app

• All controls from Output XML are listed• Can validate existence/value

• Current validation rules• Exists, Not exists• Equality• Greater/Less than

• Data value• String or @VariableName

Recording a task

• XML Recorder

• Clears user session

• Warning: Clears recorded steps and validation rules

Recording a task

• Each server transaction is recorded• Input XML (Mobile App -> AOS)

• Output XML (AOS -> Mobile App)

• Validation is based on output from server

• Description defaulted (can be changed)

• Validation Strategy defaulted to None

Playing a task

• Launches playback page

• Builds XML w/replacement variables • Can review in playback page

Playing a task

• Run test to start playback

• Monitor success/failure

• Validation messages

RSAT Integration

• Create new Task Recorder recording

• Navigate to Warehouse app task validation page

• Filter task to specific task

• Filter variables to specific ones to set

• Run task

RSAT Integration

• LCS -> BPM -> Azure Dev Ops -> RSAT

• Can execute tests from RSAT

• Utilize Excel parameter file

RSAT Integration

• LCS -> BPM -> Azure Dev Ops -> RSAT

• Can execute tests from RSAT

• Utilize Excel parameter file

• Can contain random values (TargetLP)

• Can reference global RSAT variables (Work ID)

• Can chain together tests into test suites

Versions

• 10.0.5• KB 4517769

• 10.0.6+

• Note: Non-production only.

Common Issues

• Generate Variables• Use with caution

• “Unexpected difference between request and session data” error• XML out of sync – usually means not enough validation and expected state

has “drifted”

• WHSWorkUserSessionRequestValidator:: assertAgainstSessionState

• Multiple recordings active• Will appear to not record anything
