The information in this topic applies both to default and cross-platform web tests.

In your web tests, you can access the HTML DOM document object of web pages. You can use it in your tests to get specific DOM-related data from the web page.

To access a web page’s DOM document object, use the Page.contentDocument property. Similarly, to get the document object of a frame, use the Frame.contentDocument property.

The following example demonstrates how you can use the DOM document.title property to get the web page title:

Keyword test that gets the contentDocument.title property value

JavaScript, JScript

var page = Sys.Browser().Page("*");
Log.Message(page.contentDocument.title);

Python

page = Sys.Browser().Page("*")
Log.Message(page.contentDocument.title)

VBScript

Set page = Sys.Browser.Page("*")
Log.Message page.contentDocument.title

DelphiScript

var page;
  …
  page := Sys.Browser.Page('*'');
  Log.Message(page.contentDocument.title);

C++Script, C#Script

var page = Sys["Browser"]()["Page"]("*");
Log["Message"](page["contentDocument"]["title"]);

For information on the properties and methods of the DOM document object in different browsers, follow these links:

Edge, Internet Explorer

Chrome, Firefox

Cross-Platform Web Test Limitation

In your cross-platform web tests, you can only access the DOM document object’s properties and methods that return simple type data (strings, integers, or Booleans). If a member returns a value of a complex type, for example, a collection, TestComplete will convert it into a string.

Remarks

The contentDocument property is a native property of web pages in Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Internet Explorer 11.
