Automated testing

Hi all, It has been a year since people talked here about automated testing so let's talk again. Do you have preferences between  Sikuli vs Selenium vs Watir vs Cucumber? For automated test runners, do you prefer  Jenkins vs Travis vs Circle-ci?   PTC/Thingworx folks please chip in, what do you use internally? thanks -- Rick

Thingshape runtime permissions

I have a thingshape used in a template that relates to some particular area of functionality in that template. I want to allow a particular group to have access to the thingshapes properties and services, but not allow them access to any other parts of the template. If I set the run time permissions in the thingshape 'run time instance' level, does this mean I wont have to do override permissions at the template level?   TIA K

Custom Widget error on Runtime

Hi, the custom widget given in the tutorial is not working after I imported it. It has errors during the runtime. "ERROR - TW.Runtime.Workspace.Mashups.getWidget exception loading widget { name: Error, message: simplewidgetdoesn't exist }" I have search the community about this problem and it says to clear cache or change browser. Done all of that but still having this error. Shouldn't it work if I just build the files from https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/create-mashup-widget-extension/completed-example-create-mashup-widget-extension and import them?

Button label/display name as output

Hi, Is it possible to fetch the button label or display name as a output in runtime. We know that the button doesn't have input/output arrows option to bind any service for its name. But we wanted to take the display name or label of button in the runtime. So, is there any other possible way to achieve this?   Thanks in advance, Shalini V.

service execution is slow when called from a mashup

I am using ThingWorx 8.3.2-b535.  I have an sql query service that returns 1 row of data (containing about 6 columns).  when I execute this service from the thing it takes around 1 second.  When this service is called from a mashup it takes around 7 seconds.  This mashup executes about 7 other services which are also sql queries and they generally take less than 1 second.   What is the proper way to diagnose why this is occurring?

How to set a BLOB property using LoadBinary Service

How do I use the LoadBinary Service of FileRepository TT to convert a pdf file in my SystemRepository to array/stream of bytes and assign it to a blob type property of a separate Thing.   Currently, If I'm running the LoadBinary service with the file path as input in the Composer for the SystemRepository Thing, nothing is returned by the service.

Hi Experts,   We all are well aware of the usual steps to migrate Entities from one server to another.

Calling service a specific times throughout the day

Hello,   I am trying to call my service 'ResetSheetCount' on each hour throughout the day. (7,8,9,10,11,12, .etc). I am wondering what is the best route to go with this. To use a timer that calls my service every second (use JS to determine whether the time is correct to reset sheet count) or create 8 or 9 schedulers that will execute the service at the correct times. Any other suggestions would be great.    Thanks

Hi   We have a use-case where we collect positions in x,y,z from an in-house positioning system. We want to show it in a plot-diagram. I can plot X & Y, but there is no widget for X, Y, Z.    Do you know how to proceed, any workaround or plans to have a X, Y, Z plot-widget? Also want to do a heat-diagram using the same data. On pot.ly (https://plot.ly/javascript/3d-charts/) I can find a lot of nice charts to use, can I use these in ThingWorx Mashup?   Thanks

log the action performed in a mashup

Hi, We wanted to log each and every action performed by a user in a runtime mashup in a log table that we have.  For eg: If there is a button named 'Add' and if the user clicks that, a entry with 'the user clicked the button Add' should be logged in our table. If the user navigates to another screen from one screen using navigation button, that should be logged that he navigated from so and so screen to that screen.  How can we make it generalised so that we can use the same snippet or service for all the mashups? Please help us achieve this use case.   Thanks in advance, Shalini V.

Issues with Analysis Model manual test TW Analytics 8.1

Hi, I am facing issues doing the "manual test" with my Analysis Model. For some some models (Screenshot(154).png) I am not allowed to fill in values (Screenshot(155).png). For some other models I can fill in values but then the Analysis Job produces a failure (Screenshot(152).png and Screenshot(153).png).  Screenshot(156).png shows the Application Log right after the failure. Previously I experienced issues with the Predictor and publishing Models.   I followed the steps of this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnZSjDmmIac&feature=youtu.be

E-commerce / web development

Hello, has anyone here manage to create a web application / E-commerce website using thingworx? Am pretty new to thingworx and I know thingworx is use for as a platform for IoT development. But is it weird if I use thingworx to build a E-commerce or a web application without involving the IoT aspects? Also if it's possible, how should I categorise "Things, Things Template, Things Shape" as?
