Fixed In Version: sf10
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
To support automated web graphical user interface (GUI) testing tools such as Selenium, web applications should assign unique and deterministic identifiers (IDs) to HTML DOM elements representing parts of the user interface (UI) that involve some sort of user interaction, for example, a button or text field. In UserPortal 'Basic' view, Virtual Machine action buttons such as Run or Shutdown do not have these explicit IDs. This means that automated web GUI testing tools might have problems accessing Virtual Machine action buttons without explicit IDs. To rectify this, explicit IDs have been added to the Virtual Machine action buttons. This means that automated web GUI testing tools can now easily access Virtual Machine action buttons through explicit IDs.

Description Pavel Novotny 2013-03-04 15:12:07 UTC 
Created attachment 705019 [details]
Screen: User Portal - VM action button IDs

Description of problem:
In the User Portal "Basic" view, VM action buttons (Run, Shutdown, ...) are now missing static IDs. Till this version, all these buttons had IDs like 'MainTabBasicListView_vm0_runButton', now the IDs are dynamic again, for example 'gwt-uid-370_runButton', see attached screenshot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-3.1.0-50.el6ev (SI27.3)

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a VM, which you can access from the User Portal (the "Basic" view).
2. Locate the HTML ID attribute of some of the VM action button widget (like 'Run VM' button).
  
Actual results:
<div id="gwt-uid-370_runButton" ...

Expected results:
<div id="MainTabBasicListView_vm0_runButton" ...

Additional info:

Regression against rhevm-3.1.0-49.el6ev (SI27.2).
Comment 4 Pavel Novotny 2013-03-13 10:30:23 UTC 
Verified in rhevm-3.2.0-10.14.beta1.el6ev (SF10).

All static IDs on the Basic view are again present.
