Buttons and Selenium

[Dmitri1 (Dmitri Pisarenko)]

Hello!

In my application I have several buttons ( com.vaadin.ui.Button ). When I click on any of them in Selenium IDE, nothing happens - no action is added to the test script.

Questions:

1. Why does it happen?

2. What can do in order to press these buttions in a Selenium test?

Thanks in advance

Hello again!

One solution is to use NativeButton instead of Button.

Best regards

It might be that an onClick event is not enough for the VButton. Instead, try using both onMouseDown+onMouseUp sequentially.
