Test Procedure steps used to discover the incident :
- Ensure that all the test are performed in this initial state:
- running PC;
- running OS;
- logged in local test user (int) without administrative privileges (assigned to Users local group);
- running IIS service (installed by the PoweShell command: “Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName “IIS-DefaultDocument” –All”);
- installed and running Oxygen IDE;
- installed and running Chrome browser;
- installed and enabled/active Oxygen IDE extension (Script recorder for Oxygen Framework.);
- file “alert_test03.html” is placed in IIS localhost wwwroot directory (“C:\inetpub\wwwroot\alert_test03.html”).
- Switch to Oxygen IDE and start recording.
- Switch to Chrome browser and go to “http://localhost/alert_test03.html”
- Press " Try it 1" button.
- Press OK button.
- Press " Try it 1" button.
- Press “Cancel” button.
- Switch to Oxygen IDE and stop recording.
- Save file.
- Press “Run”
- Check receiving expected message: “Test finished with status --> PASSED.”
- Repeat steps 1-11 enough cycles if necessary.
Test Case Specifications that will provide the information to repeat the incident :
If: User is recording an automation testing sequence in Oxygen IDE.
When: User invokes alert box of confirming type by clicking on the suitable html element and subsequently accepting and dismissing the alert box. The Oxygen IDE is recording corresponding web.alertAccept() and web.alertDismiss() functions accordingly.
Then: Running the recorded script in Oxygen IDE resulted in a successfully performed test run.
Expected result:
Receiving expected message:
"
Test finished with status --> PASSED.
"
Actual results:
Receiving the script error message:
"
SCRIPT_ERROR - web.acceptAlert is not a function at C:\Users\int\Downloads\oxygen_works\oxygen_IDE_bug\js_confirm_web_alert_record_bug.js line 10
Test failed: [SCRIPT_ERROR] “web.acceptAlert is not a function” at oxygen_IDE_bug\js_confirm_web_alert_record_bug.js line 10
Test finished with status --> FAILED.

Incident description:
In Oxygen IDE, during automation recording of Alert response family functions on JS confirm() alert box function, the result of automatic recording included incorrect names of web.alertAccept() and web.alertDismiss() – of alert family functions – mistyped by mechanics of recording. Result consisted of web.acceptAlert(); instead of web.alertAccept() ; and web.dismissAlert(); instead of web.alertDismiss(); respectively.
As result of running such code the “SCRIPT_ERROR” message is displayed, addressing the mistyped functions - by “is not a function” phrase - signifying that system have not recognized the recorded function name.
The state of browser after failure of the script:
When incorrect names switched to the correct ones, the test behaved as expected.
Reported by tester: Vladimir Amir.
Observed by: Shay Ginsbourg.
Impact:
In small projects, this bug might not be a problem because it is easy to change the names manually.
In large projects, however, this bug might not be immediately perceivable and multiple occurrences of triggering elements in tested system might create a need for a multiple refactoring of the recorded automation script.
Priority: Major
Severity: Minor
