Create a new project. Add abstract class TestBase. In beforeTest you need to create driver and open tested web page. In afterTest you need to tear down your web driver.
For taking screenshots we need to use @AfterMethod annotation, because we need to create screenshot after each test method. Continue reading
Top libraries which I use during writing automated tests.
Selenium is widely used portable software testing framework for web applications. Selenium provides a record/playback tool for authoring tests without learning a test scripting language. Continue reading
Have you ever wondered if there is a ways to use XPath, and to write some query were you can get the index of the requested element within the list of elements.
I mean that we need to write xpath with text value User Name and we’ll get 3...
Let’s see different types of waits which we can use while working with Selenium WebDriver. All examples would be on Java language.
Selenium can wait for a certain amount of time for finding element before throwing an exception (NoSuchElement exception as example).
So, as example you have your Selenium tests without any structure. Let’s make them more attractive. You need to create abstract class as example with name TestBase.
The following example shows how can we read data in specified intervals from excel file.
This article is part of previous one where you need to create maven project and add poi dependency into pom.xml file. So, you need to have some knowledge to do this example.
As example, we have two cells where we store our search data and result data.
Here’s a basic POM.xml file. It includes maven plugin, selenium and testNG libraries.
You can see that it has code which automatically downloads Chrome Driver for mac. It is happenning by using WebDriver Extensions (go to github for more info).
With Selenium IDE (integrated development environment) you can create your own simple automation scripts. Scripts may be automatically recorded and edited manually providing autocompletion. Scripts are recorded in Selenese, a special test scripting language for Selenium. Selenese provides commands for performing actions in a browser (click a link, select an option, wait, type, make assert and other). You can export your tests from Selenium IDE to Selenium RC or Selenium WebDriver tests using any languages: C#, Java, Python, Ruby.
How to download Selenium IDE?
Selenium IDE is the most simplest and easiest of all the tools within the Selenium Package.
Example – 1:
<div id="first-div"> <div id="text-1" name="A">Text</div> <div id="text-2" name="B">Random text</div> <div id="text-3">Random text</div> </div>
If you need element and it has id, standard text or name, it’s easy to find it by id or name:
.//div[@id=’text-1’]
.//*[name()=’A’]
