Waiting for 'Connecting to Page'

Hello Jon,

I'm a bit confused by your description. The Connecting to this window overlay only appears when you:

• Click the Record button.
• Right click a Navigate step and select Load Page.
• Right click a step and select Run > To Here.

In those cases the overlay will not appear until the steps have completed successfully or if a step fails. You should not see it during standard execution.

Can you provide more details on your scenario? Perhaps a Jing recording will shed some light.

Hi Anthony

The issue is when I am testing a test in a recording browser and click on a link that requires a new page to be opened the page loads and the connecting to browser overlay appears, the connecting to browser overlay inhibits the physical click steps I have.

I've attached a screenshot, notice that the page in the background has loaded, my test will detect this and continue it's run through, one step of which requires a physical click and the overlay prevents that click from being read.

Cheers
Jon

Hello Jon,

The only way I saw similar behavior was by using Run > Selected Steps with a recording toolbar attached to the parent window. To work around this you can use Run > To Here on the last step within the popup you want executed.

Again, this is a very specific scenario in recording mode. Standard execution should work just fine.

All the best,

Hi Anthony

Thanks for the help. Your suggestion will work. Not the way I was hoping but none-the-less it is no major inhibitor on my productivity!

Again, thanks for the help!
Cheers
Jon
