Verify Colors in Silverlight

I would like to add a color verificaiton for an element in a Silverlight application.

Solution

The code below demonstrates this approach against this Telerik demo site. It gets the first item in the menu and verifies that its foreground color macthes pre-defined values:

Manager.Settings.Web.EnableSilverlight = true; 
Manager.LaunchNewBrowser(); 
ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/#TreeView/Performance"); 
SilverlightApp app = ActiveBrowser.SilverlightApps()[0]; 
app.Find.Strategy = FindStrategy.WhenNotVisibleReturnElementProxy; 
Button b = app.Find.ByAutomationId<Button>("button"); 
b.Wait.ForExists(60000); 
b.User.Click();

FrameworkElement installerElem = app.Find.ByTextContent("^Installer Branc"); 
installerElem.Wait.ForExists(30000); 
TextBlock installer= installerElem.CastAs<TextBlock>();
Log.WriteLine(installer.Text);
Dictionary<string, string> props = installerElem.GetProperties();
Assert.IsTrue(props.ContainsKey("Text"));
Log.WriteLine("Text = " + installerElem.TextContent);
ArtOfTest.WebAii.Silverlight.UI.Brush textblockBrush = (Brush)installerElem.GetProperty(new AutomationProperty("Foreground", typeof(Brush)));

if (textblockBrush is SolidColorBrush)
{
    Color actualColor = ((SolidColorBrush)textblockBrush).Color;
    Assert.AreEqual<Byte>(255, actualColor.A, "Error: alpha color does not match expected.");
    Assert.AreEqual<Byte>(105, actualColor.B, "Error: red color does not match expected.");
    Assert.AreEqual<Byte>(72, actualColor.G, "Error: green color does not match expected.");
    Assert.AreEqual<Byte>(40, actualColor.R, "Error: blue color does not match expected.");
}
else
{
    // If it's not a SolidColorBrush what is it? How do we handle it?
    throw new ApplicationException("Expecting a SolidColorBrush, but got a " + textblockBrush.GetType().ToString());
}
Manager.Settings.Web.EnableSilverlight = True
Manager.LaunchNewBrowser()
ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/#TreeView/Performance")
Dim app As SilverlightApp = ActiveBrowser.SilverlightApps()(0)

app.Find.Strategy = FindStrategy.WhenNotVisibleReturnElementProxy
Dim b As Button = app.Find.ByAutomationId(Of Button)("button")
b.Wait.ForExists(60000)  
b.User.Click()    

Dim installerElem As FrameworkElement = app.Find.ByTextContent("^Installer Branc")
installerElem.Wait.ForExists(30000)
Dim installer As TextBlock = installerElem.CastAs(Of TextBlock)()
Log.WriteLine(installer.Text)      

Dim props As Dictionary(Of String, String) = installerElem.GetProperties()
Assert.IsTrue(props.ContainsKey("Text"))

Log.WriteLine("Text = " + installerElem.TextContent)

Dim textblockBrush As ArtOfTest.WebAii.Silverlight.UI.Brush = DirectCast(installerElem.GetProperty(New AutomationProperty("Foreground", GetType(Brush))), Brush)

If TypeOf textblockBrush Is SolidColorBrush Then
    Dim actualColor As Color = DirectCast(textblockBrush, SolidColorBrush).Color
    Assert.AreEqual(Of [Byte])(255, actualColor.A, "Error: alpha color does not match expected.")
    Assert.AreEqual(Of [Byte])(105, actualColor.B, "Error: red color does not match expected.")
    Assert.AreEqual(Of [Byte])(72, actualColor.G, "Error: green color does not match expected.")
    Assert.AreEqual(Of [Byte])(40, actualColor.R, "Error: blue color does not match expected.")
Else
    Throw New ApplicationException("Expecting a SolidColorBrush, but got a " + textblockBrush.[GetType]().ToString())
End If
