How to verify html source in selenium

We can verify the html source with selenium commands


<html>
<head>
<title>HTML Source</title>
</head>
<body>
what need to be verifed Text is here we need to verify
</body>
</html>

Script


verifyTrue(selenium.getHtmlSource().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Text is here[\\s\\S]*$"));

above command will verify Text is here in above html srource


verifyTrue(selenium.getHtmlSource().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Text i here[\\s\\S]*$"));

above command will fail because it tries to verify Text i here which is not there in html source

How to handle the input promt dialog in selenium

There are some scenarios where we need to input when our web application need external input data by opening input prompt dialog box. To handle these dialog boxes in automation is tricky task. We can handle these situation with below codes.
Html file is at the bottom


selenium.open("Input_prompt_TestCase.html");

Verify there is no input dilog present while opening this file


assertTrue(!selenium.isPromptPresent());

When then Input prompts select NO first time by the command answerOnNextPrompt|no|


selenium.answerOnNextPrompt("no");

Now click to open the input dialog by clicking the link "Click here to open input dialog"


selenium.click("promptdialog");

Now verify prompt presents or not with the command verifyPromptPresent||
assertTrue(selenium.isPromptPresent());
If it takes time to open the prompt then we can wait till 1 minute with the below code.


boolean Bool = false;
for (int second = 0; second < 60; second++) { 
try { 
if ((selenium.isPromptPresent())) {
Bool = true;
break; 
}
}
catch (Exception ignore) {
}
pause(1000);
}
assertTrue(Bool);

Now after 1 minute verify the prompt presents or not with the command assertPromptPresent||


assertTrue(selenium.isPromptPresent());

If it verifies prompt is there then verify the text what is on prompt with the command
verifyPrompt|Type 'automationtricks' and click OK|


verifyEquals("Type 'automationtricks' and click OK", selenium.getPrompt());

You can also verify the title of input prompt with the command verifyTitle|Test Prompt|


verifyEquals("*Testcases for input Prompt", selenium.getTitle());

Now you just enter automationtricks in input promt with this command
answerOnNextPrompt|automationtricks|


selenium.answerOnNextPrompt("automationtricks");

and then click on ok with command clickAndWait|promptdialog|


selenium.click("promptdialog");

Now you can see the result based on your input


selenium.waitForPageToLoad("5000");
verifyTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("You have entered automationtricks!"));

For Selenium IDE user : How to handle prompt in selenium IDE


<tr>
<td>open</td>
<td>Input_prompt_TestCase.html</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>answerOnNextPrompt</td>
<td>automationtricks</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>click</td>
<td>promptdialog</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>verifyTextPresent</td>
<td>You have entered automationtricks!</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>open</td>
<td>Input_prompt_TestCase.html</td>
<td></td>

<tr>
<td>answerOnNextPrompt</td>
<td>niraj</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>click</td>
<td>promptdialog</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>verifyTextPresent</td>
<td>You have not entered automationtricks!</td>
<td></td>
</tr>

For the above code find Html file below


<html>
<head>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html">
<script type="text/javascript">
function opendialog() {
if (prompt("Type 'automationtricks' and click OK") == 'automationtricks') {
document.write("You have entered automationtricks!");
}
else{
document.write("You have not entered automationtricks!");
}
}
</script>
<title>Testcases for input Prompt</title>
</head>
<body>
<img style="width: 644px; height: 41px;" alt="banner" src="banner.gif"><br>
<a id="promptdialog" href="javascript:opendialog();">Click here to open input dialog</a>
</body>
</html>

How to create test suite using Junit and eclipse in selenium

There are some scenarios where we need to run multiple test cases. Either we can run those test cases independently or together. But there are some real time cases where we need to run our test cases in a particular order. In this case we would prefer Test Suite to combine the test cases together and decide their orders and run those.

Below are the steps

1. Create a Test Suite class where we create the Test Suites which will call all the test cases in a particular order.


import junit.framework.Test;
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import junit.framework.TestSuite;  
import junit.textui.TestRunner;

public class TestSuite1 extends TestCase {

public static Test suite()  
{  
TestSuite suite = new TestSuite();  

suite.addTestSuite( TestCase1.class);  
suite.addTestSuite( TestCase2.class);
suite.addTestSuite( TestCase3.class);  
return suite;  
}  

public static void main(String arg[])
{
TestRunner.run(suite());

}
}

Step 2. Create your first test case


import org.openqa.selenium.server.RemoteControlConfiguration;
import org.openqa.selenium.server.SeleniumServer;
import com.thoughtworks.selenium.*;
public class TestCase1 extends SeleneseTestCase{

Selenium selenium;
public static final String MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS="60000";
private SeleniumServer seleniumServer;

public void setUp() throws Exception {

RemoteControlConfiguration rc = new RemoteControlConfiguration();
rc.setSingleWindow(true);
seleniumServer = new SeleniumServer(rc);
selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*iexplore", "http://www.google.com/");
seleniumServer.start();
selenium.start();

}
public void testgoogling() {
selenium.open("/");
selenium.type("q", "Niraj");
selenium.click("btnG");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad(MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS);
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("Niraj"));

}

public void tearDown() throws InterruptedException{
selenium.stop(); 
seleniumServer.stop();
}
}

Step 3. Create your second test case


import org.openqa.selenium.server.RemoteControlConfiguration;
import org.openqa.selenium.server.SeleniumServer;
import com.thoughtworks.selenium.*;
public class TestCase2 extends SeleneseTestCase{
Selenium selenium;
public static final String MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS="60000";
private SeleniumServer seleniumServer;
public void setUp() throws Exception {

RemoteControlConfiguration rc = new RemoteControlConfiguration();
rc.setSingleWindow(true);
seleniumServer = new SeleniumServer(rc);
selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*iexplore", "http://www.google.com/");
seleniumServer.start();
selenium.start();
}

public void testgoogling() {
selenium.open("/");
selenium.type("q", "Niraj Kumar");
selenium.click("btnG");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad(MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS);
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("Niraj Kumar"));

}

public void tearDown() throws InterruptedException{
selenium.stop(); 
seleniumServer.stop();
}
}

Step 4. Create your third test case


import org.openqa.selenium.server.RemoteControlConfiguration;
import org.openqa.selenium.server.SeleniumServer;
import com.thoughtworks.selenium.*;
public class TestCase3 extends SeleneseTestCase{
Selenium selenium;
public static final String MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS="60000";
private SeleniumServer seleniumServer;
public void setUp() throws Exception {

RemoteControlConfiguration rc = new RemoteControlConfiguration();
rc.setSingleWindow(true);
seleniumServer = new SeleniumServer(rc);
selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*iexplore", "http://www.google.com/");
seleniumServer.start();
selenium.start();
}

public void testgoogling() {
selenium.open("/");
selenium.type("q", "http://www.automationtricks.blogspot.com");
selenium.click("btnG");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad(MAX_WAIT_TIME_IN_MS);
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("http://www.automationtricks.blogspot.com"));

}

public void tearDown() throws InterruptedException{
selenium.stop(); 
seleniumServer.stop(); 
}
}

Step 5. Run your Test Suite
Go to your Test Suite class and right click on that and run as Junit Test.

This will run the TestCase1 then TestCase2 then TestCase3

If you want to execute your test cases in some specific order then you call them in that order like.


suite.addTestSuite( TestCase3.class);  
suite.addTestSuite( TestCase2.class);
suite.addTestSuite( TestCase1.class);

Above will run the TestCase3 first then TestCase2 then TestCase1.

How to store date in dd-mm-yy format in Selenium

There are some cases while we search the data based on start and end date based on date format dd-mm-yy.

=======


<tr>
<td>store</td>
<td>javascript{var d = new Date();var curr_date = d.getDate()-2;if(curr_date.toString().length!=2) curr_date = '0'+curr_date ;var curr_month = d.getMonth(); curr_month = curr_month + 1;if(curr_month.toString().length!=2) curr_month= '0'+curr_month;curr_date + '-'+ curr_month + '-'+10;}</td>
<td>start_date</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>store</td>
<td>javascript{var d = new Date();var curr_date = d.getDate();if(curr_date.toString().length!=2) curr_date = '0'+curr_date ;var curr_month = d.getMonth(); curr_month = curr_month + 1;if(curr_month.toString().length!=2) curr_month= '0'+curr_month;curr_date + '-'+ curr_month + '-'+10;}</td>
<td>end_date</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${start_date}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>echo</td>
<td>${end_date}</td>
<td></td>
</tr>

This gives the result in below format
Start date : 17-07-10
End date : 19-07-10

Selenium Regular Expression and pattern matching

Like locators, patterns are a type of parameter frequently required by Selenese commands. Examples
of commands which require patterns are verifyTextPresent, verifyTitle, verifyAlert, assertConfirmation,
verifyText, and verifyPrompt.Patterns allow one to describe, via the use of special characters, what text is expected rather
than having to specify that text exactly

Global Patterns

* which translates to “match anything,” i.e., nothing, a single character, or many characters.
[ ] (character class) which translates to “match any single character found inside the square
brackets.” A dash (hyphen) can be used as a shorthand to specify a range of characters
(which are contiguous in the ASCII character set). A few examples will make the functionality
of a character class clear:
[aeiou] matches any lowercase vowel
[0-9] matches any digit
[a-zA-Z0-9] matches any alphanumeric character
In most other contexts, globbing includes a third special character, the ?. However, Selenium globbing
patterns only support the asterisk and character class.
To specify a globbing pattern parameter for a Selenese command, one can prefix the pattern with a glob:
label. However, because globbing patterns are the default, one can also omit the label and specify just
the pattern itself.
Below is an example of two commands that use globbing patterns. The actual link text on the page
being tested was “Film/Television Department”; by using a pattern rather than the exact text, the click
command will work even if the link text is changed to “Film & Television Department” or “Film and
Television Department”. The glob pattern’s asterisk will match “anything or nothing” between the word
“Film” and the word “Television”.
click link=glob:Film*Television Department
verifyTitle glob:*Film*Television*
The actual title of the page reached by clicking on the link was “De Anza Film And Television Department
- Menu”. By using a pattern rather than the exact text, the verifyTitle will pass as long as
the two words “Film” and “Television” appear (in that order) anywhere in the page’s title. For example,
if the page’s owner should shorten the title to just “Film & Television Department,” the test would still
pass. Using a pattern for both a link and a simple test that the link worked (such as the verifyTitle
above does) can greatly reduce the maintenance for such test cases.

Some examples for global pattern

Lets say your element looks like

<input class="foo" value="the text value" name="theText">

verifyEquals("*text*", selenium.getValue("theText"));

<input type="hidden" value="the hidden value" name="theHidden">

verifyEquals("* hidden value", selenium.getValue("theHidden"));

If you have drop down combo box then you can use global pattern matching .

<select id="theSelect">
<option id="o1" value="option1">first option</option>
<option selected="selected" id="o2" value="option2">second option</option>
<option id="o3" value="option3">third,,option</option>
</select>

select the second option and verify like this

assertEquals("second *", selenium.getSelectedLabel("theSelect"));
or,
String[] arr = {"first*", "second*", "third*"};

verifyEquals(arr, selenium.getSelectOptions("theSelect"));

The question mark ? indicates there is zero or one of the preceding element. For example, colo?r matches both "color" and "colour".

If your element is like
<input class="foo" value="the text value" name="theText">

verifyEquals("?oo", selenium.getAttribute("theText@class"));

Regular expression
Regular expression patterns are the most powerful of the three types of patterns that Selenese supports.
Regular expressions are also supported by most high-level programming languages, many text editors and a host of tools, including the Linux/Unix command-line utilities grep, sed, and awk.

regexp (wildcard) matching

<input class="foo" value="the text value" name="theText">

verifyEquals("regexp:^[a-z ]+$", selenium.getValue("theText"));

<input type="hidden" value="the hidden value" name="theHidden">

verifyEquals("regexp:dd", selenium.getValue("theHidden"));

<select id="theSelect">
<option id="o1" value="option1">first option</option>
<option selected="selected" id="o2" value="option2">second option</option>
<option id="o3" value="option3">third,,option</option>
</select>

assertEquals("regexp:second .*", selenium.getSelectedLabel("theSelect"));

verify Attributes using regular expression

<input class="foo" value="the text value" name="theText">

verifyEquals("regexp:^f", selenium.getAttribute("theText@class"));

verifyEquals("regex:^[a-z ]+$", selenium.getValue("theText"));

<select id="theSelect">
<option id="o1" value="option1">first option</option>
<option selected="selected" id="o2" value="option2">second option</option>
<option id="o3" value="option3">third,,option</option>
</select>

assertEquals("exact:second option", selenium.getSelectedLabel("theSelect"));

String[] arr = {"regexp:^first.*?", "second option", "third*"};
verifyEquals(arr, selenium.getSelectOptions("theSelect"));

How to test element is editable in selenium

We can verify weather an element is editable or not using isEditable selenium command.

If your element is in below format


<input value="black" name="plain_text">

then we can use selenium isEditable to find this element is editable or not


assertTrue(selenium.isEditable("plain_text"));

<select name="plain_select"><option>Niraj</option></select>

assertTrue(selenium.isEditable("plain_select"));

<input disabled="yup" value="black" name="disabled_text">

assertTrue(!selenium.isEditable("disabled_text"));

<select disabled="yup" name="disabled_select"><option>Niraj</option></select>

assertTrue(!selenium.isEditable("disabled_select"));
