rspec users - Apr 2008 - Story runner + selenium-rc + wait_for_xxxx

Hi,

I''ve got a story working with selenium-rc, but am stuck writing
ajax-aware
steps.

How are people coding their story steps to wait for an Ajax event to
complete?


Here''s what I''ve looked at so far.

$browser.wait_for_element_present 
Looks Ideal, but not in selenium-ruby-client-drivers for some reason.

def wait_for_ajax
 
$browser.wait_for_condition("selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().ServerConnection.isPending()
== false", 2000)
end
This helper looked promising, but it returns 
SeleniumCommandError:
selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().ServerConnection has no properties

Many Thanks
Andy

Have you asked the selenium list about this?

I have done this in the past...

def wait_for_ajax(timeout = 30000)
  wait_for_condition "window.Ajax.activeRequestCount == 0", timeout
end

def wait_for_effects(timeout = 30000)
  wait_for_condition "window.Effect.Queue.size() == 0", timeout
end
