When testing an application, you may need to check the title and message of the alert view. To do this, use the wMessage or wTitle property of the AlertView test object. These properties return the alert view message or title respectively. They are available both in script code and in keyword tests.

In Script Code

The following code snippet obtains the title of an alert view control and posts it to the log:

JavaScript, JScript

Python

JavaScript, JScript

function Test()
{
  // Select the mobile device
  Mobile.SetCurrent("iPhone");
  // Obtain the AlertView object
  var p = Mobile.Device().Process("SampleApp");
  var alertview = p.Window(2).AlertView("Alert title");

  // Post the title of the AlertView to the log
  Log.Message(alertview.wTitle);
}

Python

def Test():
  # Select the mobile device
  Mobile.SetCurrent("iPhone")
  # Obtain the AlertView object 
  p = Mobile.Device().Process("SampleApp")
  alertview = p.Window(2).AlertView("Alert title")

  # Post the title of the AlertView to the log
  Log.Message(alertview.wTitle)

VBScript

Sub Test()
  Dim p, AView
  ' Select the mobile device
  Mobile.SetCurrent("iPhone")
  ' Obtain the AlertView object
  Set p = Mobile.Device.Process("SampleApp")
  Set AView = p.Window(2).AlertView

  ' Post the title of the AlertView to the log
  Log.Message(AView.wTitle)
End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure Test();
var
  p, alertview;
begin
  // Select the mobile device
  Mobile.SetCurrent('iPhone');
  // Obtain the AlertView object
  p := Mobile.Device.Process('SampleApp');
  alertview := p.Window(2).AlertView;

  // Post the title of the AlertView to the log
  Log.Message(alertview.wTitle);
end;

C++Script, C#Script

function Test()
{
  // Select the mobile device
  Mobile["SetCurrent"]("iPhone");
  // Obtain the AlertView object
  var p = Mobile["Device"].Process("SampleApp");
  var alertview = p["Window"](2)["AlertView"];

  // Post the title of the AlertView to the log
  Log["Message"](alertview["wTitle"]);
}

In Keyword Tests

To obtain the alert view’s title and message from keyword tests, call the methods described above by using the On-Screen Action or Call Object Method operation. See Calling Object Methods.
