New Post: Context parameter 'editingSessionId' not found in test context

shobhaiyer — Fri, 18 May 2012 15:21:45 GMT

Hi ,

I am trying to test an InfoPath 2010 form, and have followed the steps mentioned in your post. I have used VS 2010 to capture the web test. However, I am not sure how to add the plug-in ExtractAndSubstituteDynamicInfoPathData. I can see it as part of the classses in the InfoPathExtractionRules.dll. But I am not able to add it.

Can you some shed some light on this.

Thanks for your help.

Shobha

Thank you very much. The new DLL from Sep 14 works like a charm.

It is in fact a problem with SP2. Not the first release of SP2, but a later hotfix. In my case, it occurs after SharePoint 2007 Version 12.0000.6545.5001. This is the August 31, 2010 Cumulative Update.

I tried the plugin on a local server that says it has 4763, but I could not reproduce the error. Can you tell me more about the InfoPath form?

Where is the InfoPath form? In a document library? On a webpart? In an XmlFormView Control? Somewhere else? If it isn't in a document library, you will need to specify the InvocationPath property of the plugin.

Also, do you happen to have Person/Group Picker control in your form? This control makes some extra requests. I haven't done extensive testing with that control, so there could be cases that are not handled.

Thanks for offering to take a look!

The InfoPath Form Services version is 14.0.4763.1000.

I did try ipfs2010webtest in VS2010 but this is when I got the error. I'll get you a Fiddler trace as soon as I can...

Can you specify which versions of the toolkit and InfoPath you are using when you get that error? Also, a fiddler trace could be useful for debugging. I've seen parameters change after patches and service packs which require updates to the toolkit.

Did you get ipfs2010webtest working in VS2010? If not, I might have some time to look into that.

I'm getting the "Request failed: There is no context parameter with the name 'CurrentFormData' in the WebTestContext" error as described in this thread.

Genius. But... it looks like it only works for Visual Studio 2010. Will have a fiddle though ;)

Should this work under InfoPath 2010 yet? I can see it's been updated for Visual Studio 2010, but there is no mention of InfoPath 2010 as far as I can see...

If not, I'd be really interested to understand if there are any differences between the forms architecure for IPFS 2007 vs 2010 so I can record tests myself. Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much apprciated...

Update for anyone else who comes across this thread. A recent patch (probably Service Pack 2) added some items to the InfoPath eventlog which moved the index of the canary. This issue is fixed in the recent release of the tool.

Ok,

the new version solved everything :-)

Thanks a lot

Update:

Since I'm pretty sure you've done a good job with this, I've tested with a very simple form.
1 inputfield + submit button. (Thus containing 1 postback.formserver)

Both VS 2008 (I've installed VS 2008 to compare results) and VS 2010 plugins are doing their job and I can load test the forms.

When trying to load test our initial form, I get the
"There has been an error while loading the form. The security validation for this form is invalid."
on all the postback.formserver requests (3 of them in this form), except on the first one.

Quite annoying :-)

You've got an email address I can send the webtest?

Hmm, I'm going to need more information to debug this problem. Can you send me a copy of the webtest? A fiddler session of the requests and responses could also be helpful.

That's what I did in the last case. (So I never did manual modifications to the requests, together with adding the plugin).
I also rerecorded the test, to make sure I started clean.

So, when only adding the plugin, I get following error:
"Request failed: There is no context parameter with the name 'CurrentFormData' in the WebTestContext"

When you use the ExtractAndSubstituteDynamicInfoPathData plugin, you should not need to add make manual modifications to the requests. Can you try rerecording a webtest, then adding only the ExtractAndSubstituteDynamicInfoPathData plugin?

So, when I manually add the extraction rules, described here: http://ipfswebtest.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Using%20the%20Individual%20Extraction%20Rules&referringTitle=Home
I get the errors described in my previous post.

When I just add the Web Test Plug-in, then I get this on every postback.formserver:

"Request failed: There is no context parameter with the name 'CurrentFormData' in the WebTestContext"

The URL is ending on /_layouts/FormServer.aspx, so I've left the InvocationPath parameter blank.

That's usually the error you get without using the plugin from this project. Can you double check that you have added the ExtractAndSubstituteDynamicInfoPathData plugin to that webtest? If you do have it, something easy to try is to remove it and readd it.

Alternatively, this could mean that the plugin is not identifiying the InfoPath requests. Is the InfoPath form in a document library (the URL should end in /_layouts/FormServer.aspx)? If so, you should leave the InvocationPath parameter of the plugin blank. Or is your InfoPath form being hosted in a XmlFormViewControl? If so, you should specify an InvocationPath parameter which is a substring of that URL.

Thanks a lot,

this time the form is running, at least when I manually alter the web test by adding the extraction rules and adjust the postback.formserver requests' String Body.

But what happens now, is that no form is submitted.
When I run the webtest in visual studio 2010, I get on the responses for the postback.formserver requests this:

There has been an error while loading the form. The security validation for this form is invalid.

And so I think this is screwing things up.
