Flex :: Extract Test Results From Flash?
Apr 5, 2011
I've got a suite of unit tests for my project (pure AS3), and they all work brilliantly outputting standard JUnit XML to the trace output window. However, when I tried to get my test suite running on our continuous integration server I ran up against a wall.Flash is a sandboxed beast, isolated from the file system. I can't see an intuitive way to get this generated JUnit XML in to our CI software so it can be verified as passing.
I've taken a shot at implementing the approach shown in Continuous Integration with Flex,but it relies on reading trace output logged to flashlog.txt that is prone to failure on many fronts (debug player must be installed, flashlog.txt must be created, mm.cfg file must be configured properly). Also, I find that some of the time it fails to find the results in the flashlog and the build fails despite all the tests passing. This could be because I have too many tests and some are being pushed out of the log file.

I have a library that provides a reflection API on top of describeType() (a method that returns an XML object with all the specs of a class or instance). Since this library is used in several other libraries and frameworks.
The problem I'm facing is that I'm not sure about the best approach to refactor this libraries' code and make it possible to test and compare the results. I could easily add timers to the code, log the ouput and compare the results, but it seems like a lot of work to do this manually.How did you test and compare the results of the changes?Is there perhaps any testing framework (also non-actionscript) that helps in performance testing in such a scenario?

I have a flash quiz game, written in AS2, a few years old and needs some updating. I need to include a print button for at the very end, so the user can print out their test scores. I've found one script for the PrintJob Class, but it hasn't worked so far. [highlight=Actionscript]
btn.onRelease = function(){
var pj = new PrintJob();
var success = pj.start();
[code]...
What's the problem with this script; and alternatively, is there another way to print the results?

I have installed Flash CS4 upgrade successfully with Flash CS3 full. I have also installed Flash CS3 full and then CS4 upgrade, but it made no difference. I cannot test an example that uses sound.extract() method. When I test the movie, I get an error message stating "Call to a possibly undefined method extract through a reference with static type flash.media.Sound".

I'm trying to test a custom Flex 4 skinnable component, using the FlexUnit UIImpersonator class. If I run my tests from a FlashBuilder Spark only project everything works fine. If I try to test from a project with the mx component set on the classpath I get a "getElementIndex not available in non Flex 4 projects" error.Can I unit test spark components in FlexUnits visual test environment while still having the mx component set on the classpath?
UIImpersonator delegates it's method calls to a "testEnvironment".The implementation used for this "testEnvironment" is decided by the VisualTest EnvironmentBuilder class and the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class. If the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class can find the "mx.core.Container" on the classpath it returns a MX environment, else a Spark environment. Only the spark environment has valid implementations for Flex 4 relevant method calls on the UIImpersonator - like the addElement method.

I'm trying to rig up a basic mp3 cutter in Flash (using the Flex framework)I have gotten so far:
var ba:ByteArray=new ByteArray();
sound.extract(ba, playEnd - playStart, playStart);
This extracts the relevant bytes from the sound object and stores them in ba Then, I do this:
saveFile=new FileReference();
saveFile.save(ba, sound.id3.artist + " - " + sound.id3.songName + ".mp3");
The file saves properly, but it can not be played (Players say it is corrupted) how I can create a valid mp3 file from the byteArray obtained after the extraction?

In FlexUnit 1 it is possible to access the name of the currently-running test using the TestCase.getName() method because all tests subclass TestCase. In FlexUnit 4, however, there's no base class for tests; the tests are identified by annotations. So, how can I replicate the getName() functionality in FlexUnit 4?

Sometimes while typing in a textarea in Flex many characters will be rendered at one height then at some point on that same text line the rest of the characters are rendered a couple pixels lower than the rest. Here is an example, look at the last 'I' character, its low:
Sometimes changing the font size will fix this but its not consistent and its not something I can detect (and fix even if I could). Anybody got an idea why this happens? It happens for embedded and non-embedded fonts.

I'm trying to unit test memory management. So far I have a semi-workable solution using flash.sampler.getSamples to get the difference between the number of NewObjectSamples and DeleteObjectSamples which have the same id value.
The test looks something like this:
startSampling();
new Foo();
new Foo();
[Code].....
Since there are no references to Foo I'm assuming that all instances are being garbage collected, and my code is simply wrong due to my lack of understanding how sampling works. I am trying this instead of using weakly keyed dictionary because it seems it should be less of a hack, but now I'm starting to wonder if it's worth the trouble.

I am interested in doing automated testing against a Flex based UI.I have found out that my best options for UI automation (due to being C# controllable, good licensing conditions, etc)all seem to require that I compile test hooks into my application.Because of this, I am thinking of recommending that these hooks be compiled into our build.
Warning! Automation enabled applications expose all properties of all GUI components. This makes them vulnerable to malicious use.Never make automation enabled application publicly available. Always restrict access to such applications and to RIATest Loader to trusted users only.

I'm using Flex builder to work on my flash project, and after reading this article about manipulating sounds using Sound.extract() I got very excited.So I wanted to get using it, but as far as Flex builder is concerned, the sound class doesn't seem to have an extract function, and causes an error if I try.I've downloaded the latest milestone SDK (3.5) and updated the eclipse system (I'm on a mac), but it still doesn't want to recognise the existence of Sound.extract(), even though the function appears withi

I'm using an auto complete component and a labelFunction so that user have the ability to search by their name or id. Once the search is completed I'd like to extract the data to a query.
The only problem is that I only need the name or id for the query not both, so I'd like to pull from just the id variable...
Currently if the user types - Joe or if they type - 13
Both would return a result of Joe - 13 via the auto complete component.
I'm using a dash - To separate the results visually. So I'd like to know if theres a way to extract text from a text field up to a certain character in this case a dash.

I think this is just a matter of fine tuning some different elements, but I'd like to know your take. I've got a Flex app, using the Flex 4 data services, communicating with Zend AMF services. One of the services returns all the results in a database using SELECT * FROM table there are ~1200 rows (140KB package size).
My problem is the response time, it's rage inducing. Total duration is always between 7-8 seconds. All but about 150ms of that is latency. I broke up the PHP to figure out exactly where the latency was and turns out return $rows is eating up ~6.8sec latency. I can deal with 1-2sec, but when I start waiting around for 8sec I feel kinda dumb. I cross checked the query response speed directly from the database, and just like I was expecting the total query time is 45-60ms.
PHP, this is basically just the generated Flex data service code, although in production it isn't the same:
public function getAllProject_entries() {
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SELECT u.*
FROM $this->tablename u");
[code]....

I'm developing an application in Flex 3.5 for video tutorials, which uses a lot of Captivate 4 (AS3) videos (>200). In the front end, the user can navigate thorough the videos in a menu structure. In the administration part, the admins can upload more videos and organize them into the menu structure. Since we have more than 200 Captivate videos, we wanted to build in a search functionality into the fronted, which would be based on the text contents of the Captivate videos. The idea is: every time the admin uploads a new Captivate video into the system, an index will be created based on the contents of the video.
My question: how can I extract the text captions of a Captivate video using Flex or rather ActionScrip 3? (I know, there is an Export/Import function of Captivate, but I would like to access those texts dynamically from Flex.)

I've created a search with a couple of comboboxes that allow users to filter their search results. The results are currently using a TileList & itemRenderer to display, and now I'd like to add an animation effect when the user filters their results. I know that you can use the itemsChangeEffect to create an animation effect when the user drags and moves result itmes. So I'd like to know if there's a way to create a similar effect triggered by the filtering on the comboboxes?

I have a table in the database:
name Opinion
Tim Tim has an opinion
John other random text
Dan Dan's random text
Al Al says something else
I call this data and get it back in
getRecords.lastResult
To access John's opinion, I could use:
getRecords.lastResult[1].opinion
But that's only because I know that John is the second record (record 1), but this may change. So the right way is to search through the results to first find the record index for John, then access his opinion.
I need some sort of a loop? Is there an easier way to search for John directly without a loop?

I have a movie clip on which I have added a MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT listener.[code]...
Now the logic is to remove the movie clip on MOUSE_OUT and add it back to stage on MouseOver of another button. The intended functionality is like a slider showing some info
The MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT firing in this case is not functioning always as expected. When I move the mouse out of the moveclip fast it fires. If I moveout very slowly it does not fire and consequently the movieclip remains on the stage. [code]...

I've got a simple app that is currently getting information form a database and just displaying the content into a datagrid.
Instead of having this information displayed in a datagrid, I'd like to display it in a couple of labels (first name, last name, phone, etc.), but I'm not really sure how to.
Currently on creationComplete I call my php query function - which looks like this.
public function getPeople() {
return mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tbl_people ORDER BY pers_name ASC");
}
[Code].....
Eventually my query will be modified and will only ever return 1 row from the database. So how do I get the results to display in labels instead of the datagrid?
