Selenium 2.0

Selenium 2.0

•       The next major version of Selenium is going to change a lot of things on the Selenium internals

•       Selenium 1.0 + WebDriver = Selenium 2.0

•       Currently, Selenium 2.0 is still in development

•       It was released in 2011

History

 

•       The biggest change in Selenium recently has been the inclusion of the WebDriver API

•       Driving a browser natively as a user

Some cases connect webdriver

•       HtmlUnit Driver

•             WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();

•       Firefox Driver

•            WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

•       Internet Explorer Driver

•                       WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

•       Chrome Driver

•            WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

•       Opera Driver

•       iPhone Driver : Mac iOS Driver

•       Android Driver : Android Driver

WebDriver Interface

1.       Load the page

                Webdriver driver = new FireFoxDriver();

        driver.get("http://www.google.com");

2.    Navigation the page

                  driver.navigate().to("http://www.example.com");

                  driver.navigate().forward();

                  driver.navigate().back();

3.    Assertions on the page title

       Assert.assertEquals(String, webdriver.getTitle());

Killing the webdriver instances

                  webdriver.quit();

5.       Page interactions

                webElement.Click()

                webElement.SendKeys()

                webEkement.submit()

                Action class -> Mouse Events /Drag and Drop

Using the finElement method

 -  By ID

-  By Class Name

-  By Tag Name

-  By Name

-  By Link Text

-  By Partial Link Text

-  By CSS

-  By XPATH

-  By JavaScript

Example

List WebElement

                List <WebElement> webElements = webdriver.findElements                                                                                         (By.xpath(…));

Assertion on the number of items

                 Assert.AssertEquals(5, Webelements.size());

When you are using WebDriver for test automation a test case really boils down to:

     1. Find an element

     2. Perform an action

     3. Confirm the expected result
