This method is not supported in web tests (including cross-platform web tests) that use XPath expressions and CSS selectors to locate web elements. This method can be only used in tests that locate web objects by using internal identification properties provided by TestComplete. |
Description
Depending on the Expand parameter, the ExpandItem action expands or collapses the specified control’s item.
Declaration
TestObj.ExpandItem(Item, Expand)
| TestObj | A variable, parameter or expression that specifies a reference to one of the objects listed in the Applies To section | |||
| Item | [in] | Required | Variant | |
| Expand | [in] | Optional | Boolean | Default value: True |
| Result | None | |||
Applies To
The method is applied to the following objects:
Angular UI Bootstrap Accordion, Bootstrap Accordion, Ext JS Accordion and 8 more objects, GWT StackPanel, JavaFX Accordion, jQuery Mobile Collapsible set, jQuery UI Accordion, MooTools Accordion, Telerik RadPanelBar for Silverlight, YUI 3 Accordion, YUI 3 NodeAccordion « Collapse the list
View Mode
This method is available in the Object Browser panel and in other panels and dialogs in both Basic and Advanced view modes.
Parameters
The method has the following parameters:
Item
Specifies the desired item. You can enter the item’s index (from 0) or its caption. The caption can contain asterisk (*) or question mark (?) wildcards or regular expressions. The asterisk (*) corresponds to a string of any length (including an empty string), the question mark corresponds to any single character (including none). To specify more complicated parts of a caption, use regular expressions.
The caption can be case-sensitive or case-insensitive depending on the value of the Use case-sensitive parameters project setting.
Expand
Specifies whether to expand or collapse the control’s item.
Result Value
None.
Remarks
If the specified item is not found, an error message is posted to the test log.
If the Expand parameter corresponds to the control’s item state (for example, Expand parameter is True and the control’s item is already expanded), the ExpandItem performs no actions and posts an informative message to the test log.
|
Due to specifics of the GWT StackPanel and MooTools Accordion controls, their items can be collapsed only automatically. If you use ExpandItem(False) with any of these controls, the method will fail and post an error message to the test log. |
