Selenium ide for internet explorer

Try http://code.google.com/p/fire-ie-selenium/downloads
This is not an IDE , a simple utility to get the locators ( ID,Name,Xpath,TagName).

Selenium Click and ClickAt

Click - to click on a Locator
ClickAt - to click on a Locator w.r.t coordinates

Basically ClickAt can be used as an alternate to Click for rich ui frameworks like DOJO,Wickets etc.

Selenium - Autosuggest edit field

keyPressNative method will be used to handle autosuggestion.
keyPressNative method -Simulates a user pressing and releasing a key by sending a native operating system keystroke. This function uses the java.awt.Robot class to send a keystroke; this more accurately simulates typing a key on the keyboard. It does not honor settings from the shiftKeyDown, controlKeyDown, altKeyDown and metaKeyDown commands, and does not target any particular HTML element. To send a keystroke to a particular element, focus on the element first before running this command.

public void selectAutosuggest(String webElementLocator,String inputValue){
char[] stringArray = inputValue.toUpperCase().toCharArray();
selenium.click(webElementLocator);
for(int i=0;i &lt stringArray.length ; i + +)
selenium.keyPress(webElementLocator,""+(int)stringArray[i]);
//Press downarrow and click EnterKey
selenium.keyPressNative(String.valueOf(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN));
selenium.keyPressNative(String.valueOf(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER));
Thread.sleep(1000);

}

Selenium - XPATH - Location Of text...

If we want to click on some text which we dont know the Id,Name
we can use selenium.click("xpath=//*[text()=\"Search\"]")
To be more specific we can use
selenium.click("xpath=//*[@id='ParentDivId']//*[text()='Search']");

WebDriver - Listbox and few other details

In latest WebDriver , we have to use sendKeys to select a value from the listbox.
RenderedWebElement class has been depreceated.

Normal Driver instance can be as follows:
  firefox:
            FirefoxProfile firefoxProfile = new FirefoxProfile();
            firefoxProfile.setAcceptUntrustedCertificates(true);
            localDriver = new FirefoxDriver(firefoxProfile);
            localDriver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
            driver = localDriver;
         
 iexplore:
            DesiredCapabilities ieCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
ieCapabilities.setCapability(
     InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS,
                            true);
            ieCapabilities
                    .setCapability(CapabilityType.HAS_NATIVE_EVENTS, true);
            ieCapabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.TAKES_SCREENSHOT, true);
            ieCapabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.ACCEPT_SSL_CERTS, true);
            ieCapabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.SUPPORTS_JAVASCRIPT,
                    true);
            localDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);
           driver = localDriver;

WebDriver waitForElement - waits for an element until given number of secs

public void waitForElement(final By by, long timeout) throws Exception {

(new WebDriverWait(DriverFactory.getDriver(), timeout))
.until(new ExpectedCondition() {
public Boolean apply(WebDriver d) {
return isElementPresent(by);
}
});
}

The above code can be used to wait for an element until it is displayed in webpage.
On new page loads we can use this command to wait before performing a new action by waitForElement which is a mandatory element to be displayed on page/section/frame refresh completes.

Selenium Window target = "_blank" issue

For example if you have a link like

mylink with target _blank

Upon click mylink , the url loads into a new window ,  to do some operations in newly opened window it is painful to identify the windowName ..etc

And the solution for that is

selenium.open("/test.html");

selenium.getEval("this.page().findElement(\"link=mylink with target _blank\").target='maddys_window'");

selenium..getEval("selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().open('', 'maddys_window')");

selenium.click("link=mylink with target _blank");

Thread.sleep(2000);

selenium.selectWindow("maddys_window");

selenium.windowFocus();

......
......
selenium.close(); //to close maddys_window
selenium.selectWindow("null");  //to get focus to main window
....
...

How to do doubleClick on WebElement , WindowMaxmize Using Webdriver

 To maximize the active Window :

public void windowMaximize() {

((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("if (window.screen){window.moveTo(0, 0);window.resizeTo(window.screen.availWidth,window.screen.availHeight);};");

}

To DoubleClick an Element

public void doubleClick(WebElement webElement) {

//For FF browser.

((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("var evt = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');"

+ "evt.initMouseEvent('dblclick',true, true, window, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, false, false, false, false, 0,null);"

+ "arguments[0].dispatchEvent(evt);",webElement);

//For IE

//((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("arguments[0].fireEvent('ondblclick');", webElement);

}

how-to-locate-element-which-have-same.html

http://automationtricks.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-to-locate-element-which-have-same.html

Selenium Regular Expression

Selenium supports a few methods that help match text patterns. However, selenium locators don’t accept regular expressions. Only patterns or values accept them.
Globbing:

selenium.click("link=glob:*Gifts"); // Clicks on any link with text suffixed with 'Gifts'
selenium.verifyTextPresent("glob:*Gifts*");

Regular Expressions:[regexp, regexpi]

selenium.click("link=regexpi:^Over \\$[0-9]+$");  //matches links such as 'Over $75', 'Over $85' etc

Contains:

selenium.highlight("//div[contains(@class,'cnn_sectbin')]");  //highlights the first div with class attribute that contains 'cnn_sectbin'
selenium.highlight("css=div#cat_description:contains(\"to last\")");  //locating a div containing the text 'to last' using css selector

Starts-with:

selenium.click("//img[starts-with(@id,'cat_prod_image')]");  //clicks on the first image that has an id attribute that starts with 'cat_prod_image'
selenium.click("//div[starts-with(@id,'tab_dropdown')]/a[last()]");  //clicks on the last link within the div that has a class attribute starting with 'tab_dropdown'
selenium.click("//div[starts-with(@id,'tab_dropdown')]/a[position()=2]"); //clicks on the second link within the div that has a class attribute starting with 'tab_dropdown'
selenium.highlight("css=div[class^='samples']"); //highlights div with class that starts with 'samples'

Ends-with:

selenium.highlight("css=div[class$='fabrics']"); //highlights div with class that ends with 'fabrics'
selenium.click("//img[ends-with(@id,'cat_prod_image')]"); //clicks on the first image that has an id attribute that ends with 'cat_prod_image'

[Note: ends-with is supported only by Xpath 2.0. FF 3 might throw an error for this.]

Way to Get XPATH in IE

Way to Get XPATH in IE

Are you stuck with an application that only works in IE?
Do you want the XPATH of an element that can be seen only IE? Unable to replicate the scenario in firefox. There are many firefox addons like xpather, xpath-checker and firebug that will give you the xpath of an element in a second. But sadly there is no addon or tool avaialable that will do this for IE. For most cases you can get the xpath of the elements that fall in your script using the above tools in firefox and tweak them a little (if required) to make them work in IE. But if you are testing an application that will work only in IE or the specific scenario or page that has this element will open-up/play-out only in IE then you cannot use any of the above mentione tools to find the XPATH.
Well the only thing that works in this case is the Bookmarklets that were coded just for this purpose. Bookmarklets are JavaScript code that you will add in IE as bookmarks and later use to get the XPATH of the element you desire. Using these you can get the XPATH as easily as you get using xpather or any other firefox addon.

STEPS TO INSTAL BOOKMARKLETS
1)Open IE
2)Type about:blank in the address bar and hit enter
3)From Favorites main menu select--->Add favorites
4) In the Add a favorite popup window enter name GetXPATH1.
5)Click add button in the add a favorite popup window.
6)Open the Favorites menu and right click the newly added favorite and select properties option.
7)GetXPATH1 Properties will open up. Select the web Document Tab.
8)Enter the following in the URL field.

javascript:function getNode(node){var nodeExpr=node.tagName;if(!nodeExpr)return null;if(node.id!=''){nodeExpr+="[@id='"+node.id+"']";return "/"+nodeExpr;}var rank=1;var ps=node.previousSibling;while(ps){if(ps.tagName==node.tagName){rank++;}ps=ps.previousSibling;}if(rank>1){nodeExpr+='['+rank+']';}else{var ns=node.nextSibling;while(ns){if(ns.tagName==node.tagName){nodeExpr+='[1]';break;}ns=ns.nextSibling;}}return nodeExpr;}

9)Click Ok. Click YES on the popup alert.
10)Add another favorite by following steps 3 to 5, Name this favorite GetXPATH2 (step4)
11)Repeat steps 6 and 7 for GetXPATH2 that you just created.
12)Enter the following in the URL field for GetXPATH2

javascript:function o__o(){var currentNode=document.selection.createRange().parentElement();var path=[];while(currentNode){var pe=getNode(currentNode);if(pe){path.push(pe);if(pe.indexOf('@id')!=-1)break;}currentNode=currentNode.parentNode;}var xpath="/"+path.reverse().join('/');clipboardData.setData("Text", xpath);}o__o();

13)Repeat Step 9.

You are all done!!

Now to get the XPATH of elements just select the element with your mouse. This would involve clicking the left mouse button just before the element (link, button, image, checkbox, text etc) begins and dragging it till the element ends. Once you do this first select the favorite GetXPATH1 from the favorites menu and then select the second favorite GetXPATH2. At his point you will get a confirmation, hit allow access button. Now open up a notepad file, right click and select paste option. This will give you the XPATH of the element you seek.


*I got this bookmarklets from some other site but can't remember which one. Credit goes to the guy who created these JS.

WebDriver PageFactory.initElements [Why we need]

GooglePage.java

 public class GooglePage extends MyDriver{    
      @FindBy(how = How.NAME, using = "q")  
       private WebElement searchtext;  
      public GooglePage() {  
             super();
             System.out.println("cool stuff!");  
      }  
       public void typeText(){  
           searchtext.sendKeys("abc"); 
      }  
 } 

Testcode:

public class TestCode{

public TestCode(){

GooglePage googlePage = PageFactory.initElements(driver, GooglePage.class); 

//We need to use PageFactory.initElements(driver, GooglePage.class) 

// instead of "new GooglePage() since the GooglePage defines the WebElement using @FindBy. 

          } 

    public void testCase1(){

   googlePage.typeText();

Anna Hazare - A mail from Kiran Bedi and Anna Hazare(indiaagainstcorruption.2010@gmail.com)

Anna Hazare fasts unto death starting 5th April.
He is demanding enactment of a strong anti-corruption law - Jan Lokpal Bill - to ensure swiftness and certainty of punishment to the corrupt.
Will his fast have any impact on the deaf  Government of India?
Yes, it certainly would. Because, last time when Anna sat on fast -
                 * 6 corrupt ministers in Maharashtra had to resign
                 * 400 corrupt officers were dismissed from job
                 * 2002 - Maharashtra RTI Act was passed
                 * 2006 - Central Government withdrew its proposal to amend Central RTI Act

Now Anna is fasting to demand Jan Lokpal Bill.
  JAN LOKPAL BILL will act as deterrent and instill fear in the minds of corrupt people.

"At 78, Anna is not fasting for himself, he is fasting for the future of my kid. I will myself fast on 5th April for a day and ask my 5 year daughter also to skip a meal on 5th April," Rakesh, a software engineer.



What can you do?

"Let the whole nation fast for a day on 5th April and pray for a corruption free India. Collective prayers are very powerful. Let the whole nation pray against corruption," appeals Anna Hazare.

"Lets reach Jantar Mantar in thousands, in lakhs from 5th April. I will be there - day and night - with Anna. We will all sleep on the roads of Jantar Mantar. Anna's fast can change India's history. Can't you take a few days off from your work and be a part of it?" Arvind Kejriwal

"Send us a missed call at 02261550789 to stay updated about this movement. Forward this mail to everyone," Kiran Bedi
Do watch this film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eJnyPRWHzc<http://www.katalistdigital.com/iem/link.php?M=306709&N=97&L=71&F=H>

Across India, join Sri Sri Ravishankar, Swami Agnivesh, Arch Bishop of Delhi Vincent Concessao, Mahmood A Madani, Kiran Bedi, J M Lyngdoh, Shanti Bhushan, Prashant Bhushan, Arvind Kejriwal, Mufti Shamoom Qasmi, Mallika Sarabhai, Arun Bhatia, Sunita Godara, Swami Ramdev, All India Bank Employees Federation, PAN IIT Alumni Association, Common Cause, Foundation for Restoration of National Values and many other prominent organizations and leaders, as India comes out on the streets!
200+ CITIES WILL RALLY BEHIND ANNA!

Salient features of Jan Lokpal Bill

Drafted by Justice Santosh Hegde, Prashant Bhushan and Arvind Kejriwal, this Bill has been refined on the basis of feedback received from public on website and after series of public consultations. It has also been vetted by and is supported by Shanti Bhushan, J M Lyngdoh, Kiran Bedi, Anna Hazare etc. It was sent to the PM and all CMs on 1st December.

1.      An institution called LOKPAL at the centre and LOKAYUKTA in each state will be set up
2.      Like Supreme Court and Election Commission, they will be completely independent of the governments. No minister or bureaucrat will be able to influence their investigations.
3.      Cases against corrupt people will not linger on for years anymore: Investigations in any case will have to be completed in one year. Trial should be completed in next one year so that the corrupt politician, officer or judge is sent to jail within two years.
4.      The loss that a corrupt person caused to the government will be recovered at the time of conviction.
5.      How will it help a common citizen: If any work of any citizen is not done in prescribed time in any government office, Lokpal will impose financial penalty on guilty officers, which will be given as compensation to the complainant.
6.      So, you could approach Lokpal if your ration card or passport or voter card is not being made or if police is not registering your case or any other work is not being done in prescribed time. Lokpal will have to get it done in a month's time. You could also report any case of corruption to Lokpal like ration being siphoned off, poor quality roads been constructed or panchayat funds being siphoned off. Lokpal will have to complete its investigations in a year, trial will be over in next one year and the guilty will go to jail within two years.
7.      But won't the government appoint corrupt and weak people as Lokpal members? That won't be possible because its members will be selected by judges, citizens and constitutional authorities and not by politicians, through a completely transparent and participatory process.
8.      What if some officer in Lokpal becomes corrupt? The entire functioning of Lokpal/ Lokayukta will be completely transparent. Any complaint against any officer of Lokpal shall be investigated and the officer dismissed within two months.
9.      What will happen to existing anti-corruption agencies? CVC, departmental vigilance and anti-corruption branch of CBI will be merged into Lokpal. Lokpal will have complete powers and machinery to independently investigate and prosecute any officer, judge or politician.

13. This summer it has crossed 45degree . Many birds die due to lack of water. Plz keep bowl of water in balcony. Hope you will do it.

14.People lose their health for making money. The same money is lost for restoring their health. But the secret in this issue is - They are loosing the valuable Time. Never get again.

15.Never think and speak about the third person who was not there and never thing what the third person thinks and speaks about U. When U were not there.

16. If the world refuses to help U, just remember the words of Einstein "I'm thankful 2 all those who said no 2 me, because of them only i did it myself.

Selenium Tutorial

This tutorial explains how to use write selenium tests using frameworks like Junit , TestNG with Ant. Hope by the end of tutorial you will get a base framework to start your tests for your application under test.
First of all take your own time and go through the entire document available at http://seleniumhq.org/docs/index.html.
Now starts with Installation of required artifacts.

1. Installing eclipse
   Your computer should have a working Java Runtime Environment (JRE) v6 to run Eclipse. If you do not already have it, follow the instructions for installing Java 6 before installing Eclipse. Regardless of whether or not you had an existing, prior version of Eclipse, click to open the local zip archive of the Eclipse program so that you can view the folder. Once downloaded zip file , extract the zip contents into a folder (eg: c:\eclipse ). Open eclipse editor by doubleclick eclipse.exe.
