Add new shortcut to selenium IDE - javascript

How can i add new shortcut to Selenium IDE modifying its code?
For example, i want to assign to action run test case shortcut: ctrl + p, just like save action has ctrl + s
I could not find any js file responsible for this.

Since you have asked make changes in the code. I would suggest :
Clone the git repository SeleniumHQ on your local machine.
Search for the file which implements the shortcuts on the IDE.
Make changes and create a Pull Request on the project.
Wait for the admin to review it and merge the same.
Note : This would put the usefulness of the idea and correctness of its implementation under regression which shall never be a cause of
worry if you want to develop on something.
Edit : On digging further I've got to know that selenium IDE uses a third party keyboard shortcuts script to provide us with the shortcuts.
The link to the specific file goes in here : keyboardshortcuthandler.js

Auto-import Javascript module in Vscode using Shortcut (Ctrl + .)

If my JS code uses a module/varaible that is not yet imported, VSCode will underline it in red
Image showing underline in VSCode
How can VSCode be configured such that we can select the unimported variable, either press a shortcut or select something from the right-click menu, and select the appropriate module to be imported.
Similar to the Ctrl + . auto-import shortcut when dealing with Rust files
Create a clone of the Rust shortcut
Since there is already a shortcut that does what you want (albeit in a different language), you may be able to create a new shortcut based on the existing one.
First: open your keyboard shortcuts, and do a "reverse-shortcut" search for Ctrl + .. There's an icon near the right side of the search input that switches the search behavior to this:
You may find multiple matches; study them to identify the Rust import command that you like. In particular, take note of the "Source" column: if Source is "Extension," that means you're getting the Rust behavior from an extension, and you may need to find (or create) a similar extension that targets JS/TS. (I suspect you will, because I don't have any commands related to imports in my VSCode.) The next step requires that you copy the value of the Where column, so do that now.
Second: look at the "Command" column for the name given to this behavior. If the name is specific to Rust, do a new search for a similar command that doesn't target Rust. If there is such a command, you just need to configure it to run when you like: edit that shortcut and paste the "When" value from behavior; this may require a hand-edit if the When from the Rust command mentions anything specific about Rust (e.g. if it includes editorLangId == 'markdown', change that to 'javascript' and add alternative for typescript as well).
If there is no auto-import command that is language agnostic, and none that is specific to JS/TS (again, I don't see one in my VSC), you will have to rely on the Intellisense-based option, or find (or create) an extension that does this. Creating an extension is a whole other topic.
Normally, in Visual Studio Code, if you type in a variable or function that isn't imported, then Visual Studio Code will auto-correct it, if you select it.
For example, if I am typing half the name of a function, it will infer that I want a function, and when I hit Tab/Enter, it will autocomplete it, and import it.
See the GIF below for a visual example.

How to get the current foreground application in electron(Javascript)

How can I detect if, for example, a browser is currently open?
I need this in my electron-application.
ty :)
I've found nothing like this online.
I've only found how I can check which window is open from the windows I have in my own application, but I need to know, what else is opened.
It should be something like this:
if(Application.isOpen('Google Chrome'){}
Unless someone has built a specific electron api to do this (which I can't find), then from electron...no. However, the beauty of electron being built with node.js, means that any node module should be able to do the job for you.
For example, ps-list should be able to get you all currently running processes.
psList().then(processes => {
console.log(processes)
})
Which gives a list for me, including:
Just be aware that you need node access from the electron thread attempting to use this lib.
This can easily be abstracted to do a name search in the list for you to get your desired functionality.
You can use find-process in case you need to search by given name, name pattern or pid.

Run exe file with jQuery or JavaScript

I want to know if there is a way to open a exe file from client side with jQuery or JavaScript.
I tried with windows.open("..") but it didn't work.
First off, Dalorzo is correct - you cannot escape the sandbox of a browser without earning lots of money. Recently Pinky Pie won over $60k from Google for performing such a task on Google Chrome.
http://blog.chromium.org/2012/05/tale-of-two-pwnies-part-1.html
However, sometimes I ask questions to try to find out-of-the-box solutions, so I'm assuming that you have a legitimate use-case for this question. I can help you think of a "hack" solution if you have a legitimate use for this. I'll probably get downvoted to oblivion for this response, but theoretically you could do this...
Back in college, I took a computer forensics class in which I wrote a chat web application which would forensically clean a user's computer from having ever accessed the chat webpage. This was done through the user running an executable they could download from the site. However, I wanted to have the users to not have to run the executable every time so I wanted a sandbox escape like you're asking about.
It's messy, but if your users are a participating party they can modify their computer to allow executables to be run from Chrome webpages.
Please Note: This will make your computer less secure, I only ever did it on Virtual Machines or Lab Machines. Reconsider whether you actually wanna try this or not.
Step One: Create a Chrome custom browser:
This is the python that I eventually compiled to a packed *.exe that accomplished creating a Google Chrome custom browser.
import sqlite3 as lite
con = lite.connect('C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Web Data')
c = con.cursor()
#idmax = c.execute('SELECT MAX(id) FROM keywords')
#c.execute("INSERT INTO keywords VALUES('cleanupeverybodyeverywhere','cleanupeverybodyeverywhere','','forensichat://C:>Windows>System32>calc.exe',0,'',0,0,'',0,'',0,0,'',0,'','','','','','','','','')")
c.execute("SELECT * FROM keywords WHERE short_name='cleanupeverybodyeverywhere'")
foo = c.fetchall()
if foo == []:
c.execute("INSERT INTO keywords (short_name,keyword,url,favicon_url) VALUES ('cleanupeverybodyeverywhere','cleanupeverybodyeverywhere','forensichat://C:>Windows>System32>calc.exe','')")
con.commit()
con.close()
Note that now when I open a Chrome tab and use the custom browser cleanupeverybodyeverywhere to run the key forensichat and it will open calc.exe as proof of concept.
Step Two: Modify your Windows Registry:
import _winreg as wreg
import getpass
user = getpass.getuser()
key = wreg.CreateKey(wreg.HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, '')
wreg.SetValue(key,'forensichat',wreg.REG_SZ,'URL:forensichat Protocol')
# Create new subkey
kkey = wreg.CreateKey(wreg.HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, 'forensichat')
wreg.SetValueEx(kkey, 'URL Protocol', 0, wreg.REG_SZ,'')
# Create new value
wreg.CreateKey(wreg.HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,"forensichat\shell")
nkey = wreg.CreateKey(wreg.HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,"forensichat\shell\open")
wreg.SetValue(nkey,"command",wreg.REG_SZ,'C:\Users\\'+user+'\Downloads\\forensicleaner.exe')
key.Close()
Note that I'm creating a key called forensichat which will run the exe found in the user's Downloads folder.
Of course, I ended up cleaning this all up and packing it so Anti-Virus wouldn't flag it, next thing I know Google Chrome has marked the site lol. It's still up if you wanna check it out - check Secure Chat and Repeat Customer. Chrome will flag it, but there's obviously ways around that.

selenium + chrome.fileSystem.chooseEntry = invalid calling page error

I am writing a Selenium script to test a Chrome app that uses the Chrome.fileSystem.chooseEntry API to select a directory. When I do this manually, it works fine. But when I do this in a Selenium script, I get back this error:
Unchecked runtime.lastError while running fileSystem.chooseEntry: Invalid calling page. This function can't be called from a background page.
Any ideas on how to make Selenium and chooseEntry play nicely together?
I updated to the latest Chromedriver, but still no luck. I also looked at ChromeOptions, but didn't see anything that looked like it would be helpful. The interwebs doesn't seem to have much to say about Selenium and chooseEntry. I'm on version 51 of Chrome.
I'm down to thinking I'll need a special javascript entry point to set the path values for testing instead of using chooseEntry. But I would strongly prefer to not have a separate code execution path for my tests. Anybody have a cleaner solution?
EDIT: per commenter's request, here's the offending code:
chrome.fileSystem.chooseEntry({type:'openDirectory'},function(entry) {
chrome.fileSystem.getWritableEntry(entry,function(writeable_entry) {
console.log("got writeable entry");
});
}, function(e) { errorHandler(e); });
EDIT #2: I've gone with the special javascript entry point hack. In manual mode -- i.e., not running under Selenium -- I run code that executes chooseEntry, and then use the retainEntry API to get the entry id. I added an entry point in my javascript to take an entry id and call the restoreEntry API to turn it back into an entry. I also modified my code so if this entry object is set, then use that as the file instead of calling chooseEntry. Lastly, I modified my Selenium script to call the restoreEntry entry point before running the rest of the script.
This is not ideal, since now my test code execution path is somewhat different from my actual live-human-being-at-the-controls code execution path. But at least it lets me use Selenium scripts now. Of course, if anyone can think of a non-horrible way to solve this solution, I'd love to hear about it.
EDIT #3: Per #Xan's comment, corrected my terminology from "extension" to "Chrome App."
I can only offer this horrible hack. For Chrome Apps under OSX I created folder favorites and use Robot keyPress to navigate and select the 'favorite' folders needed for the App. The only possible redeeming factor is that it does mirror a valid/possible actual human interaction with the file interface.
private void selectOSXFolderFavorite(int favorite) {
// With an OSX file folder dialog open, Shift-Tab to favorites list
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_TAB);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_TAB);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);
// move to the top of favorites list
int i = 40;
while (i-- > 0) {
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_UP);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_UP);
}
while (favorite-- > 0) {
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN);
}
// Send an enter key to Select the selected folder
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
}

How to find functions/operators/methods in JS files quickly and easily

I'm looking for an app or a command line tool that can help me quickly find a defined function in a file. The file in question here is the EXT-debug.js file. I want to override some methods(in this case onRender) however I need to figure out the signature of said functions.
I've yet to try Eclipse or Aptana; I'm looking for a more lightweight solution.
I use agent ransack. It's able to search for files as well as content. I also like the fact that you can run it on demand as it does not use an invasive, indexing service.
Agent Ransack
Visual Studio is not exactly a lightweight solution, but I have to recommend it. It's come a long way towards becoming an excellent JavaScript editor.
Visual Studio's IntelliSense is able to infer JavaScript types and give you a dropdown of the functions and values in your object (works pretty well).
Of course, I always have my handy little muscle memory spasm: double-click-select -> Ctrl-C -> Ctrl-Shift-F -> Ctrl-V -> ENTER
And here's a plugin that pre-searches for exact string matches in your entire solution and highlights them for you, so jumping to a function definition is instantaneous. Whole Tomato's Visual Assist X
