Hi Monks,

I am requesting all your wisdom and your skills ( normally just one or two skills not more :) ) please

I am trying to recover datas ( url's ) from my config file which is an excel file. Information's are in the first column of the sheet; For each data obtained, i would like to add the data, the URL in the adress bar of chrome to run with the browser.

Here is the code

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Test::More;
#use Test::Time;
use Selenium::Remote::Driver;
use Selenium::Remote::WebElement;
use Spreadsheet::Read;
use Text::CSV_XS;


my $driver = Selenium::Remote::Driver->new(
    'remote_server_addr' => 'localhost',
    'browser_name' => 'chrome',
    'port' => '4444',
);


my $excel = ReadData ("TEST.csv");
my $data = $excel->[1]{A1};
foreach my $data (0..9){
    $driver->get($data);
    $driver->maximize_window();
    #$driver->find_element('q','name')->send_keys($data);
    $driver->pause(2000);
    $driver->send_keys_to_active_element(KEYS->{'control'}, 't');

    $driver->pause(2000);
    my $filename = "screenshot.png";
    $driver->capture_screenshot($filename);
    $driver->pause(2000);

}

$driver->quit();

What is going wrong please?

Is there an other (better) way to do it ? I know that TIMTOWTDI (Perl !!). I'm not sure, i am thinking about a hash or something like that but as i am a beginner i don't know how to do it exactly. Instead of having a simple loop and have to change the incrementation...

Thanks in advance
