Does the eValid browser necessarily require the use of the desktop?
Can you please elaborate on the usage of when eValid requires the desktop or not?
Thank You
Thanks for the question ForrestB.
eValid does not require desktop access, except for commands that required desktop access.
No, that's not double talk.
There are two major kinds of commands in eValid: those which require desktop access and those that don't.
Validating a text is done at the DOM level.
Navigation is at the DOM level.
Clicks and internal events or triggers are all at the DOM level.
Waiting for a particular string to appear in a particular DOM element is done entirely without the desktop.
Validating the content of the screen at a particular point DOES need the screen.
Naturally enough.
There is a command that puts eValid in the background:
minimize wid
When this is executed the particular screen "wid" (zero is the number of the parent screen) is minimized -- put in the background.
Minimized instances of eValid don't have access to the screen, but when a command is attempted that DOES require access, eValid restores the screen image in order to gain the access needed.
