Execute FitNesse scripts for the same browser window

Morné Lombard
A Score Level 1

Hi all, I have a question with regards to executing FitNesse scripts individually but in the same browser window instead of opening a new window for each script.

 

For example, I am not sure how to do the following:

- run SCRIPT_1: Sign the user into Tempo and navigate to Tasks

- run SCRIPT_2: Complete a specified task in the task list (when running SCRIPT_2, a new Chrome window opens instead of using the existing Chrome window which already has context)

 

I am able to do all of this in a single script, but what if I wanted to split them up, say for example I want to execute other scripts for that same user and browser window context, without having to sign in again and go to where the script was in a process before running SCRIPT_2?

 

I'm new to using FitNesse with Appian, so any advice, tips, or thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Morné

    Hi Morné.

    In order to do that with Fitnesse you must write all functionalities in the same script. Following the example that you used would be:
    - run SCRIPT_1: Sign the user into Tempo and navigate to Tasks AND Complete a specified task in the task list.

    That's because every time that you use |setup with| BROWSER_NAME|browser| a new browser driver is instantiated, so, a new window it is opened.

    Another option for you, would be closing the browser window once the script has finished, so, before another browser instance starts, the previous is closed.

    I hope it helped you :)
