- 1. Web Automation using Selenium Autor: Ana Sârbescu Software Testing Community in Macedonia November 2015
- 2. Summary: ● Why QA automation? ● All kind of tools for automation! ● Automation Framework? ● Using Selenium for web automated testing ● …with examples.
- 3. Why should we automate? ● Lack of resources and too much to test. ● Higher level of confidence, higher coverage. ● Free your time for creative testing! ● Agile approach to testing – Regression gets little time during a Sprint – Continuous increase in what needs to be tested
- 4. What tool we can use? ● Payed vs Freeware – You won’t get the money for it! ☺ – But it would be much easier if you would. – Free tools are not so easy to use. – Though they might be more powerful. ● Recording vs Scripting – For recording you need no programming skills. – But the options are very rigid. – With programming skills you can make the world go round…automatically. Oh way…it already does.. ➢ Sometimes you don’t have free tools to do what you need (ex. Multiple platforms/Compatibility testing)
- 5. Programming Skills? ● Basic! ^_^ ● Depends on the tool ● Depends on the framework type (recording or scripting) ● Depending on your application type ● Depending on your testing goal (unit testing, functionality testing, security testing etc)
- 6. The. FRAMEWORK. ! ● What does an automation framework mean? – Specific language – Continuous Integration – Available Test Data – BDD? ● Who needs to do it? Well…who can. ☺ ● Why is it needed? Because TIME!
- 7. Selenium Webdriver. ● For WEB. “Selenium automates browsers. ” ● It interrogates and manipulates the HTML. ● Contains domain-specific language (Selenese). ● Works with all browsers and platforms. ● Can be run remotely on different devices, at the same time. ● It integrates with so many tools. ● Works with most languages: Java, C#, Groovy, Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby
- 8. How we write tests in Selenium? ● Using its main actions: – Initiate the browser: ● WebDriver myBrowser = new FirefoxWebdriver; – Navigate to URL: ● Java: myBrowser.get("http://www.google.com"); ● C#: myBrowser.Url = "http://www.google.com"; – Find elements: ● WebElement myElement = browser.findElement(By.id ("coolestWidgetEvah")); ● List<WebElement> myList = browser.findElements(By. className(“differentOptions")); – Verify condition ● Ifs, Verify and Assertions.
- 11. Finding elements by ● ID: – By.id(“cheese”); ● Class: – By.class(“cheese”); ● Name: – By.name(“cheese”); ● Tag Name: – By.tagName(“cheese”); ● LinkText/partial link text: – By.linkText(“cheese”); ● CSS: – By.cssSelector(“#food span.dairy.aged”); ● XPath: – By.xpath(“//input”);
- 12. Verify commands. And Waits. Verify vs Assertion ● verifyTitle/assertTitle ● verifyTextPresent ● verifyElementPresent Implicit Wait: – WebElement myItem = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10)) .until (ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.id("myItem"))); – wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("someid"))); Explicit Wait: – driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
- 13. Other useful commands ● Send Keys: – element.sendKeys("Cheese!"); ● Click Button: – driver.findElement(By.id("submit")).click(); ● Select options: – List<WebElement> allOptions = select.findElements(By. tagName("option")); ● Switch frames/pop-ups: – driver.switchTo().frame("frameName"); – Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
- 14. Organizing your tests ● Junit, TestNG, Testem, Telerik, Nightwatch, NodeJS, SoapUI etc ● Test suits, test grouping, tagging ● Configuration for different platforms
