The information in this topic applies both to cross-platform and classic 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.
