How to test input & rich:ajaxValidator event="onblur" & rich:message

[jadtn]

Hi,

There is someone who has already tested the presence of an error message with rich:ajaxvalidator for event="onblur"?

I think client.setValue(inputId, value); do nothing on event "onblur"....

If someone has an example, it would be nice.

{code:xml}
<h:inputText id="nupseudo" value="#{ctrlCreateUser.newUser.userId}"  size="16" maxlength="#{ctrlCreateUser.maxPseudoLength}"  required="true">
             <f:validator validatorId="pseudoValidator" />
            <rich:ajaxValidator event="onblur" />
  </h:inputText>
 <rich:message for="nupseudo" />
{code:xml}

Thanks

Adrien

Hi Adrien,

I've never tried this before.  You might need to Using the HtmlUnit API with JSFUnit and also post on the HtmlUnit mailing list to ask exactly how/when onblur gets fired.

To test ajaxValidator it is need to use a HtmlElement to change the component focus

Here a sample code

//set focus on the input to modify
setFocusOn("nupseudo");
//update the input
client.setValue("nupseudo", newUser);
//change the focus
setFocusOn("anotherInputForExample");
//check the error message
checkContainsMsg("nupseudo", "excpected error message") 
public void setFocusOn(String componentId){
        HtmlPage p = (HtmlPage) client.getContentPage();//JSFClientSession
        HtmlElement m = p.getHtmlElementById(componentId);        
        p.setFocusedElement(m);//change the focus to declenche ajaxvalidar
    }
public    void checkContainsMsg(String cptid, String msg) {
        Iterator<FacesMessage> msgs = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getMessages(cptid);
        String allmsg="";
        while (msgs.hasNext()) {
            FacesMessage m = msgs.next();    
            allmsg= allmsg+ "[sum='"+m.getSummary()+"',Det='"+m.getDetail()+"',SEV="+m.getSeverity()+"]";
            if (msg.equals(m.getSummary()) || msg.equals(m.getDetail())) {
                return;
            }
 
        fail(allmsg+ " no msg for component '" + cptid + "'  msg=" + msg);
    }

I figured it would take something like that.  Thanks for sharing your solution.
