Error at navigate command in wptdriver - cws - 08-29-2013 07:03 PM
The "navigate" command in wptdriver doesn't work corretly anymore. Commands located after the navigate command are executed before the navigate command finished execution.
I tested the following script at the online instance:
combineSteps
navigate http://www.webpagetest.org
navigate http://www.google.de
Here are the results for the different browsers
IE 8: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130829_TT_AE0/1/details/ (right result, presumably URLblast)
Firefox: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130829_HR_A8N/1/details/ (wrong result, just http://www.google.de has been opened)
Chrome: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130829_MM_AFP/1/details/ (wrong result, just http://www.google.de has been opened)
At firefox and chrome the wptdriver didn't wait for the successful execution of the navigate command. Thus, only the second navigate command is executed. I also noticed the same behaviour on a local instance where i measured internet explorer with wptdriver. Seems to be an wptdriver issue.

Inserting "sleep 1" to the script fixes the problem but shouldn't be necessary after a navigate.
New script:
combineSteps
navigate http://www.webpagetest.org
sleep 1
navigate http://www.google.de

Argh - I thought I saw something broken when I was looking at that code the other day - will get it fixed today.

Fixed, sorry about that: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130829_F4_QST/ (though it looks like Miami needs to be rebooted to fix the video capture)

It's working. Thank you for the quick fix.
