Selenium



WebDriver is an automation tool useful to perform Cross Browser Testing.
Verifying the AUT(application under test) against multiple browsers.
Limitation / Drawback –>WebDriver doesnt help us in automating Desktop based application. notepad.exe
Selenium WebDriver API (Application Programming Interface)
API Contains classes,methods,interfaces. All these are bundled and provided to us in jar file format.
A jar file named selenium-java.x.xx.zip downloaded added to the build path of the project.
Apart from that we have to add the jars available under lib directory also which are required for execution.
Selenium API- http://selenium.googlecode.com/git/docs/api/java/index.html.
Package ->org.openqa.selenium
Compatibility-> the selenium-java.x.xx.zip should be compatible with latest version of Chrome

driver.findElement(By.id(“usernmae”))

driver.findElement(By.name(“password”));
3. className- -done
class=”textboxcolor” driver.findElement(By.className(“textboxcolor”));
class=”inputtext _58mg _5dba _2ph-”
//driver.findElement(By.className(“inputtext _58mg _5dba _2ph-“));
InvalidSelectorException:Compound class names not supported.
4. tagName
tagName=”input”
driver.findElement(By.tagName(“input”));//Select the username
5. linkText(hyperlink)-
WebElement e =driver.findElement(By.linkText(“Sign In”))
e.click();
6. partialLinkText(hyperlink) for dynamic links where the text is keep on changing. So we use the static part.
WebElement e =driver.findElement(By.linkText(“Sign”))
e.click();
WebElement e =driver.findElement(By.linkText(“In”))
e.click();
7. cssSelector
8. xpath – > xml path
