4. Use cases

Shoppers viewing a product photo might want to share it directly rather than saving and re-uploading it elsewhere, and the product page offers this through its own right-click menu rather than the browser's built-in options.

A tester uses Zoho QEngine to right-click the image, select Share from the custom menu, and confirm the share panel appears, ensuring the sharing shortcut works as intended.

1. Open the Diver Chronomat product page in the same window.
2. Wait for the product image to become clickable.
3. Right-click the product image.
4. Select the Share option from the context menu.
5. Confirm the share panel appears.

Implementation

// Step 1: Open the Diver Chronomat product page on the ZWatch Commerce website in the same window using the Open URL task
openURL("https://zwatch.zohocommerce.com/products/diver-chronomat/3531661000000075722", "same window");
// Step 2: Wait until the product image becomes clickable
wait(10, "img[alt='Diver Chronomat']", event.CLICKABLE);
// Step 3: Right-click the product image using the Right Click task
rightClick("img[alt='Diver Chronomat']");
// Step 4: Select the Share option from the context menu using the Click task
click(ui.zwatch.image-context-menu-share-option);
// Step 5: Confirm the share panel appears using the Assert Visible task
assertVisible(ui.zwatch.share-panel, errorhandling.STOP_ON_ERROR);

A tester uses Zoho QEngine to search for Chrono 44, right-click the result row, select Add to Wishlist, and confirm the item was saved, giving shoppers a quick way to bookmark a product while browsing search results.

1. Open the ZWatch home page in the same window.
2. Search for Chrono 44.
3. Right-click the first search result row.
4. Select Add to Wishlist from the actions menu.
5. Confirm the wishlist confirmation message appears.

Implementation

// Step 1: Open the ZWatch Commerce home page in the same window using the Open URL task
openURL("https://zwatch.zohocommerce.com/", "same window");
// Step 2: Click the search icon to reveal the search input using the Click task
click(".theme-search");
// Step 3: Enter a search term using the Set Value task
setValue("[data-search-input]", "Chrono 44");
// Step 4: Submit the search using the <Send Keys> task
sendKeys("[data-search-input]", [keys.ENTER]);
// Step 5: Right-click the first search result row using the Right Click task
rightClick(ui.zwatch.search-result-row);
// Step 6: Select Add to Wishlist from the actions menu using the Click task
click(ui.zwatch.row-actions-add-to-wishlist);
// Step 7: Confirm the wishlist confirmation message appears using the Assert Visible task
assertVisible(".wishlist-selection-container", errorhandling.STOP_ON_ERROR);

Consider a retail organization that uses a Zoho Creator Inventory Manager application to track stock. Warehouse staff right-click a product row in the Inventory report to open a quick actions menu, then choose Flag for Reorder rather than opening the full record to change its status manually. This menu is a Custom Action configured on the report, which runs a Deluge script to update the item's reorder status field.

A tester uses Zoho QEngine to right-click a record row, select Flag for Reorder from the menu, reopen the report, and confirm the reorder status was saved, ensuring low-stock items are reliably flagged for restocking.

1. Open the Inventory report in the Inventory Manager application.
2. Wait for the record row to be present.
3. Right-click the record row.
4. Select Flag for Reorder from the actions menu.
5. Reopen the Inventory report.
6. Confirm the record's reorder status reflects the change.

Implementation

// Step 1: Open the Inventory report in the Inventory Manager application using the Open URL task
openURL("https://creatorapp.zoho.com/<orgname>/inventory-manager#Report:Inventory", "same window");
// Step 2: Wait until the record row is present on the page
wait(10, ui.inventorymanager.record-row, event.PRESENT);
// Step 3: Right-click the record row using the Right Click task
rightClick(ui.inventorymanager.record-row);
// Step 4: Select Flag for Reorder from the actions menu using the Click task
click(ui.inventorymanager.flag-for-reorder-option);
// Step 5: Reopen the Inventory report using the Open URL task
openURL("https://creatorapp.zoho.com/<orgname>/inventory-manager#Report:Inventory", "same window");
// Step 6: Confirm the record's reorder status reflects the change using the Assert Text task
assertText(ui.inventorymanager.reorder-status-field, "Flagged", errorhandling.STOP_ON_ERROR);

5. Points to note

1. Use Right Click only when a page reserves an interaction specifically for a right-click. For a standard single-click interaction, use the Click task instead.
2. Confirm the result of a right-click with an assertion task, such as Assert Visible or Assert Text.
3. Use an ID or CSS selector to locate the target element for the right-click when a unique identifier is available. Reserve XPath for cases where no reliable ID or CSS selector can pin the element down.
