Hello Susmita,

I don't believe this requires any coding. We just need to figure out what's actually there compared to what the test is looking for. We can see the test is looking for an <iframe> element having the properties:

Frame:id=~fitFrameId_29603093,name=Frame_0,src=http://fuelnet.stg.mansfieldoil.com/

What we don't know is what was actually there when the test executed. Enabling Silverlight won't help in this case because Silverlight is not involved in your test.

To further diagnose this, please go to Step Failure Details, find and click Export and send me the generated .zip file. It will contain a snapshot of the DOM. Once I have that I will be able to see what was actually there at the point of failure and be able to help figure out the right parameters for locating the frame.

If I were to guess, I would say that most like the frame ID change. Noting that there's a number in the ID "fitFrameId_29603093" it's common for this ID to be dynamically generated every time the application runs, and it's getting a different number. If the numbers don't match Test Studio can't find the old one.

Cody

Hi Susmita,

In most of my tests I've found that this kind of frames have a variable identifier which could be your case. Try removing _29603093 as this might be different every time you open the frame, just use "id=~fiFrameID".
