ExtractionRule.Extract Method

When overridden in a derived class, this method extracts information from a HtmlDocument and places it into the WebTestContext.

Namespace:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebTesting
Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.WebTestFramework (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.WebTestFramework.dll)

Syntax

    sender : Object, 
    e : ExtractionEventArgs
)

Parameters

Remarks

This method contains the core extraction functionality. This method has the responsibility of extracting the data from the response.

Notes to Inheritors

When overridden in a derived class, the Extract method adds the extracted value to the WebTestContext provided by e.WebTest.Context. The name for the value added to the WebTestContext is set with the ContextParameterName property. If the extraction is a success, e.Success is set to true; otherwise it should be set to false.

Examples

The following is a Web performance test that uses the ExtractCheckBoxes custom extraction rule. The code for this can be found at ExtractionRule. The code checks for the existence of check boxes in the HtmlDocument provided by the WebTestResponse that is contained in the ExtractionEventArgs. The results are yielded to the test engine.

namespace TestProject1
{
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.WebTesting;
    using ClassLibrary2;

    public class MyWebTest : WebTest
    {
        public MyWebTest()
        {
            this.PreAuthenticate = true;
        }

        public override IEnumerator<WebTestRequest> GetRequestEnumerator()
        {
            WebTestRequest request1 = new WebTestRequest("https://localhost/ts");
            ExtractCheckBoxes rule1 = new ExtractCheckBoxes();
            rule1.FindCheckedBoxes = true;
            rule1.ContextParameterName = "CheckedBoxes";
            request1.ExtractValues += new EventHandler
                <ExtractionEventArgs>(rule1.Extract);
            ExtractCheckBoxes rule2 = new ExtractCheckBoxes();
            rule2.FindCheckedBoxes = false;
            rule2.ContextParameterName = "";
            request1.ExtractValues += new EventHandler
                <ExtractionEventArgs>(rule2.Extract);
            yield return request1;
        }
    }
}

The following is a coded Web performance test called MyCodedWebTest that inherits from ThreadedWebTest. This test extracts Hidden Fields. The second request posts form information contained within in three controls back to the server.
