Selenium2+python Automation 27-View Selenium API

Objective

The front is a little bit of introduction selenium some of the API usage, then selenium API in the end how much? This article is called everyone How to check the Selenium API, do not ask for help, do not need to reach for someone, in their own computer there.

Pydoc is a python-brought module that is used to automatically generate documents from Python modules that can be rendered on text-based, web pages, and in a browser on the server!

First, Pydoc

1. What is Pydoc? , this is an accurate explanation: documentation generator and online Help system. Pydoc is a python-brought module that is used to automatically generate documents from Python modules that can be rendered on text-based, web pages, and in a browser on the server! In short, it's a tool that helps you automatically generate documents from code and annotations.

2. For a chestnut, I need to see the function and syntax of the open function in Python, open cmd, enter: Python-m Pydoc Open

3.-m parameter: Python runs the module as a scripting method

>>python-m Pydoc Open

So the problem is, this is already known to have this function, to see its function, selenium inside do not know how many functions or methods, how to view it?

Second, start the server

1. Open the cmd command line, enter: Python-m pydoc-p 6666

2.-p parameter: This indicates that the service is started on this machine

3.6666 parameter: This is the service port number, arbitrarily set

After opening, the interface will appear an address: http://localhost:6666/, open directly in the browser

Third, the browser to view the document

1. In the browser input: http://localhost:6666/

2.built-in Moudles: This is Python's own module.

Iv. Webdriver API

1. Find this path: python2.7\lib\site-packages, open Selenium

2. Open Selenium>webdriver>firefox>webdriver, final path: http://localhost:6666/selenium.webdriver.firefox.webdriver.html

3. These are the Selenium Webdriver API help documentation.
