  • Hi, I am using new version 23.2.1 and can not access related actions.

    Previously I was able to access it via clickMenu() but not it doesn't work in new version. So I tried different approaches - clickActions, clickRecord and clickLInk, clickRelatedActions  and other- no luck.

    I click on site page "SITE_PAGE" isn't applicable here 

    Any suggestions how it can be solved?

  • the problem seems to be on the new feature that changes the number of items in the menu from 5 to 10. now, there is a hidden div, and the original one. so the selector returns 2 elements instead of one. 

    the solution appian gave is to change the statement

    from :

    "Click on menu"

    to:

    I click on site page "SITE_PAGE"

  • Hi,

    If your Cucumber script does not specify that the Appian version is 23.2, you will receive this error upon login due to changes in the XPATH and HTML structure in 23.2.

    If you continue to experience this issue after specifying the Appian version as 23.2 in your testing script, please open a support case with an example test script that reproduces the issue so that we can review further.

  • Hi there, 

    We are being affected by this issue as well.

    Has anyone implemented a resolution or workaround?

    Thanks!
