Error description

  • Rational Functional Tester returning 0 (zero) when using
    getRowCount() API even though the web application has a table
    with row data available when we run Functional Test using Web UI
    engine. As a result, multiple automation scripts are no longer
    working.

Problem conclusion

  • Previously, when you ran a functional test by using the Web UI
    engine and if the test contained an ITestDataTable API, then the
    test either failed to retrieve the row count in the table or the
    playback slowed down. This problem is fixed.
    
    The fix for this APAR is included in IBM DevOps Test UI 11.0.0
    release.
