Re: [Ieunit-general] Internet Explorer crashes (Ie6 and Ie7) afterextended usage

[James X. L. <jam...@us...>]

Getting the current page's URL is not that simple, since the IE DHTML model
doesn't allow scripts to read the URL value. IeUnit has integrated a COM 
object, Win32Dom,
that allows you access almost any GUI object on the local desktop.

Take a look into the test case samples\Win32Dom\GetUrl.jst, it demonstrates
how you get the URL within a IeUnit test script.

cheers,
James

I tried splitting up the tests and running them with batch files with no
luck. The trick that worked for me involved _.closeWindow() and using
_.sleep() for a few minutes between tests, and increasing the minimal
waiting time to 2 seconds.

Another question, is there a property anywhere that stores the current
page's URL?

I had similar problem when I used IeUnit to test a cache server. The
test
script
simply visits many many web sites. The test usually crashes after 2 to 3

hours of
continues test on a 500MB laptop. The memory leak likely comes from the
low
level framework (e.g. JavaScript engine+COM+IE etc.).

The only work-around I know for this problem is to split the test into
multiple
test suites (e.g. directories for IeUnit), and start them separately
with a
batch script.
