Selenium positioning elements

Commands (command)

• Action
  Working with the current state
  When failed, stop the test
• Assertion
  Verify that the correct value is generated
• Element Locators
  Specify an element in the HTML
• Patterns
  For pattern matching

1. Element Locators (Elemental Locator)

• Id=id
  ID Locator An element that specifies a unique ID in HTML
• Name=name
  Name locator The first element in the element that specifies the same name in the HTML
• Identifier=id
  Identifier Locator first looks for the element that has the ID for the HTML, and if not, finds the first element of that name
• Dom=javascriptexpression
  Dom Locator uses JavaScript expressions to locate elements in HTML, and note that you must start with "document"
  For example:
  dom=document.forms[' MyForm '].mydropdown
  DOM=DOCUMENT.IMAGES[56]
• Xpath=xpathexpression
  XPath locator uses an XPath expression to locate elements in the HTML, and you must be careful to start with "//"
  For example:
  xpath=//img[@alt = ' The image alt text ']
  xpath=//table[@id = ' table1 ']//tr[4]/td[2]
• Link=textpattern
  Link Locator Use link to select a connection or anchor element in HTML
  For example:
  Link=the link text
• In the absence of locator pre-order without a locator prefix, Selenium uses:
  If you are using "document." First, the default is to use the DOM locator, and if it starts with "//", the XPath locator is used by default, and the rest is considered identifier locator

2. String Matching Patterns (string match pattern)

• Glob:patthern
  Glob mode, using the wildcard character "*" for any length character, "?" Represents a character
• Regexp:regexp
  Regular expression pattern, matching strings in the form of JavaScript regular expressions
• Exact:string
  Exact match pattern, exact match of entire string, cannot be used with wildcard characters
• Selenium uses Golb match mode by default when no string match is specified in the pre-order

3. Select option Specifiers (select options selector)

• Label=labelpattern
  Specify options by matching text in options
  Example: Label=regexp:^[oo]ther
• Value=valuepattern
  Specify options by the values in the match options
  Example: Value=other
• Id=id
  Specify options by the ID of the matching option
  Example: Id=option1
• Index=index
  Specify options with the ordinal of the matching option, starting with 0
  Example: index=2
• The default is the text of the matching option in the absence of an option to select the Pre-order

Actions

Describes the actions that users will make.
There are two forms of action: Action and actionandwait, action is executed immediately, and Actionandwait assumes that it takes a long time to get the action's response, while the open will automatically handle the wait time.

• Click
  Click (elementlocator)
  -click the Connect, button, check and radio boxes
  -If you need to wait for a response after clicking, use "Clickandwait"
  -If you need to go through the JavaScript Alert or confirm dialog to continue, you need to call verify or assert to tell selenium what you expect to do with the dialog box.

  Click	Acheckbox
  Clickandwait	Submitbutton
  Clickandwait	Anylink

Selenium. Click ("Id=login");

• Open
  Open (URL)
  -Open the URL in the browser, you can accept the relative and absolute path of two forms
  -Note: The URL must be within the same security limits as the browser

  Open	/mypage
  Open	http://localhost/

Selenium. Open ("/");

• Type
  Type (inputlocator, value)
  -Simulate the input process of the manual and enter values into the specified input
  -also suitable for assigning values to check and radio boxes
  -In this case, only the checked box is assigned a value, note, instead of rewriting its text

  Type	NameField	John Smith
  Typeandwait	Textboxthatsubmitsonchange	NewValue

Selenium. Type ("Id=username", UserName);

• Select
  Select (Dropdownlocator, Optionspecifier)
  -Select a drop-down menu option according to the Optionspecifier option selector
  -If there are more than one selector, such as in wildcard mode, such as "f*b*", or if more than one option has the same text or value, the first match to the value will be selected

  Select	DropDown	Australian Dollars
  Select	DropDown	Index=0
  Selectandwait	Currencyselector	Value=aud
  Selectandwait	Currencyselector	Label=auslian D*rs

• Goback,close
  GoBack ()
  Analog Click on the browser's Back button

Selenium. GoBack ();

• Close ()
  Analog Click the browser Close button

Selenium. Close ();

• Selectwindow
  Select (Windowid)
  -Select a pop-up window
  -When the window is selected, all commands will be transferred to that window for execution.

  Selectwindow	Mypopupwindow
  Selectwindow	Null

• Pause
  Pause (millisenconds)
  -Pauses selenium script execution based on specified time
  -Commonly used when debugging scripts or waiting for a server segment response

  Pause	5000
  Pause	2000

• FireEvent
  fireEvent (elementlocatore,evenname)
  Simulates the processing action of a page element event being activated

  FireEvent	TextField	Focus
  FireEvent	DropDown	Blur

• Waitforcondition
  Waitforcondition (Javascriptsnippet,time)
  -Wait for a piece of JavaScript code to return a true value within a limited time, and stop waiting for a timeout

  Waitforcondition

  var value=selenium.gettext ("foo"); Value.match (/bar/);

  3000

• waitforvalue
  waitforvalue (inputlocator, value)
  -wait for an input such as hidden Input) is given a value,
  -the value will be detected in turn, so be aware that if the value has not been given this input for a long time, it may cause blocking

  waitforvalue	finishindication	isfinished
  & nbsp;

• store,strorevalue
  Store (Valuetostore, variablename)
  Save a value into the variable.
  The value can be either combined from another variable or assigned to a variable by a JavaScript expression

  stor E	Mr John Smith	fullname
  store	$.{title} $.{firstname } $.{suname}	fullname
  store	javascript.{math.round (math.pi*100)/10 0}	PI
  storevalue	inputlocator	variableName

  Saves the value in the specified input to a variable

  Storevalue	UserName	UserID
  type	userName	$.{userid}

• Storetext, Storeattribute
  Storetext (Elementlocator, VariableName)
  Assigns the text value of the specified element to the variable

  Storetext	currentdate	Expectedstartdate
  Verifyvalue	StartDate	$.{expectedstartdate}

  Storeattribute (. {}[email protected],variablename.{})
  Assigns the value of the attribute of the specified element to the variable

  Storeattribute	[Email protected]	ClassOfInput1
  Verifyattribute	[Email protected]	$.{CLASSOFINPUT1}

Storeattribute TARGET:AA@BB Storage element value: variable stores bb values of AA into variables

String taskname = Selenium. GetAttribute ("[email protected]");
Console.WriteLine (TaskName);

Store the Defvalue value with ID minblogbody in TaskName and print TaskName

Stortetext

target://*[@id = ' UL_80185794-3209-4E6B-8CEA-AF39348C5CDD ']/li[1]/span[6]/a[1]

Value:bind

Echo

${bind}

Save the value of the path to target in the bind variable and output the bind value.

• Choosecancel., answer.
  Choosecancelonnextconfirmation ()
  -When the next JavaScript pops up the Confirm dialog box, let Selenium select Cancel
  -If you do not have the command, you encounter the Confirm dialog box selenium returns True by default, such as manually selecting the OK button

  Choosecancelonnextconfirmation

  -If the command has already been run, the next time the Confirm dialog box appears, you will again select Cancel
  Answeronnextprompt (answerstring)
  -When the next JavaScript pops up the prompt prompt, give its anweerstring value and select OK

  Answeronnextprompt

  Kangaroo

Assertions

Allows the user to check the current state. Two modes: Assert and Verify, exit the test when assert fails, and the test will continue to run when Verify fails.

  assertvalue	document.fo Rms[2].namefield	John Smith

• assertselected, assertselectedoptions
  assertselected (Selectlocator, Optionspecifier)
  Checks whether the selected selection in the drop-down menu of select is the same as the option for Optionspecifer (select selection selector)

  assertelementpresent	//img[@alt = ' foo ']		assertelementnotpresent (elementlocator)

• Asserttable
  Asserttable (celladdress, ValuePattern)
  -Check the value in a cell in the table
  -Celladdress's syntax is tableName.row.column, note that the row and column numbers start at 0.

  Verifytable	mytable.1.6	Submitted
  Asserttable	results0.2	13

• Assertvisible, nonvisible
  Assertvisible (Elementlocator)
  -Checks whether the specified element is visible
  -Hide an element can be set with CSS ' visibility ' property for ' hidden ', or you can set ' Display ' property to ' none '

• Assertalert
  Assertalert (Messagepattern)
  -Check if JavaScript has an alert dialog box with the specified message
  -The order of alert generation must be consistent with the Order of inspection
  -When alert is checked, it produces the same effect as clicking the ' OK ' button manually. If an alert is created and you do not check it, selenium will make an error in the next action.
  -Note: Selenium does not support JavaScript calling alert () in the OnLoad () event, in which case Selenium requires you to manually click OK.
• Assertconfirmation
  Assertconfirmation (Messagepattern)
  -Check if JavaScript has a confirmation dialog box with the specified message and alert case, the confirmation dialog must also be checked when they are generated
  -By default, selenium will let confirm () return true, equivalent to the effect of manually clicking the OK button. You can use the Choosecancelonnextconfirmation command to get confirm () returns FALSE. Similarly, if a cofirmation dialog box appears, but you do not check it, selenium will make an error in the next action
  -Note: In a selenium environment, the confirmation dialog box will no longer appear with an explicit popup dialog
  -Note: Selenium does not support invoking the confirmation dialog box in the OnLoad () event, in which case the Display Confirmatioin dialog box appears and requires you to manually click on it.
• Assertprompt
  Assertprompt (Messagepattern)
  -Check if JavaScript has a prompt dialog box that produces a specified message
  -you check the order of the prompt prompt dialog box must produce the same order
  -The answeronnextprompt command must be called before verifyprompt
  -If the prompt dialog box appears but you do not check, then selenium will error in the next action

  Answeronnextprompt	Joe
  Click	Id=delegate
  Verifyprompt	Delegate to Who?

Parameters and Variables

The Declaration range of parameters and variables is assigned by a simple assignment to a JavaScript expression.
Store,storevalue and Storetext Save the value for the next visit.
Inside the selenium, a map called Storevars is used to save the variable name.

• Variable Substitution variable substitution
  provides an easy way to access variables, syntax $.{xxx}

  store	Mr	title
  storeval UE	NameField	surname
  store	$.{title} $.{suname}	FullName
  type	textelement	full name is: $.{fullname}

• JavaScript Evaluation javascript Assignment
  You can use JavaScript to build any value you need.
  This parameter starts with JavaScript and the syntax is javascript.{' with a trailing '}.
  You can assign a value to an element through a JavaScript expression.

  Store	javascript.{' Merchant ' + (new Date ()). GetTime ()}	Merchantid
  Type	TextElement	javascript.{storedvars[' Merchantid '].touppercase ()} Source: >
