Hi,
We use excel add-in and have a settings function using EO web browser, we want to do automation for settings function, but don't know how to switch to the popup web form handler, we use test stack(white) framework.
Appreciate that you can help on this.
Thanks.

Hi,
We are not familiar with your testing framework part. If you want to automate EO.WebBrowser, the easiest way is to use JavaScript and then call WebView.EvalScript.
Thanks!

Thanks for your quickly reply.
When I use WebView.EvalScript("document.title"), the visual studio occurs error: An object reference is required for the non-static field.
It seems that the EvalScript method is a non-static method.
Therefore I initiate a new instance for WebView, and then execute JS , finally I got null result.
WebView webview1 = new WebView();
string title= (string)webview1.EvalScript("document.title"); //title is null
Could you please help?
Thanks.

Hi, You need to go through our documentation and sample code first. You can't just pull out things of your head and expect it to work. You can start the documentation from here: http://www.essentialobjects.com/doc/webbrowser/start/overview.aspxMake sure you read at least all topics in the "Getting Started" section first. Thanks!

I just go through the Get Started, I see the webview class need to load url firstly and then eval script which is not suitable for our automation.
We need to bind current opened web form, the same session, not loading a url again...
Could you please kindly help again?
Thanks for your patient.

Hi,
No. You won't be able to do that. You can use our product and automate our product through our API. But you can not use our product to "bind" to another browser. EO.WebBrowser is a browser engine on its own. It does not interact with other browser engines.
Thanks!

We development team had purchased your product and use your product to develop web form which be sure the same browser engine you mentioned.
I am from automation testing team who want to automate the web form, I want to use EO web browser in automation script also and what I want to bind is the same browser engine.
So if the browser engine is the same, can I bind the web form even if I don't load the url again?
How to implement this?
Thanks.

No. You may want to work with your development team for them to expose test interface to you. You can not use our product in any form other than as described in our documentation.
