BDD BDD vs TDD JBehave JBehave & Selenium Page Objects Q & A

Challenges in Web Automation

Dynamic nature of web pages Ever changing Javascript world and cross browser support

Simulating real user experience Writing automation test at a low level (E.g > click , select )

Robust handling of environment and response slowness

Developer centric test cases

BDD Vs TDD

BDD : $(count)should-be(5) TDD assertEquals(count 5)

Tools we are proposing »Selenium 2.0 (Webdriver) ˃ Advanced browser testing

API »Thucydides >automation framework designed to make it

easier to write automated acceptance tests using Selenium 2.

» Jenkins (Or Any other CI Tool) ˃ To support continuous integration approach

Webdriver/Selenium 2.*

»Webdriver is an Advanced API to interact with browser

» Clean API enables to write robust Automation Solution

» Browsers Supported – Firefox, IE, Chrome, Safari, HTMLUnit, Iphone, Android ( Default browsers for Mobile Phones)

» Supports various programming languages – Java, C#, Python, etc

» Java is supported out of the box

Thucydides

By default, Thucydides supports a simple directory-based convention for organizing your requirements. The standard structure uses

three levels: capabilities, features and stories.

+ src

+ test

+ resources

+ stories

+ grow_potatoes [a capability]

+ grow_organic_potatoes [a feature]

- plant_organic_potatoes.story [a story]

- dig_up_organic_potatoes.story [another story]

+ grow_sweet_potatoes [another feature]

...

If you prefer another hierarchy, you can use the thucydides.capability.types system property to override the default convention.

Defining Thucydides Page Objects

Page Objects are a way of isolating the implementation details of a web page inside a class, exposing only business-focused methods related to that page

Example :-

public class LoginPage extends PageObject {

public LoginPage(WebDriver driver) {

super(driver);

}

@FindBy(id = "username")

private WebElement userName;

@FindBy(css = "button.button")

private WebElement loginButton;

public void inputForm(String username, String password) {

}

public void submitForm() {

}

public void logOut() {

}

public String getResultValue(String value){;

}

}

Stories Narrative: In order to configure on the THM DashBoard As an Admin I want to be able to login to the Dashboar Scenario: Logging in as Admin Given I am on Login Page When I input 'admin' and 'alfresco' as Username And

Password Then I Click Login Button Then I should see 'logout'

Defining the Test Steps public class LoginSteps extends ScenarioSteps { LoginPage loginPage; @Step public void enters() { loginPage.navigateTo(getDriver()); } @Step public void provides_credentials(String username, String password) { loginPage.inputForm(username, password); } @Step public void click_button() { } @Step public void LogOut(){ }

Step Class public class LoginTest {

@Steps

LoginSteps login;

@Given("I am on Login Page")

@Alias("the admin is not logged in")

@Then("I am on Login Page")

public void givenIAmOnLoginPage() {

login.enters();

}

@When("I input '$username' and '$password' as Username And Passoword")

public void whenIInputUsernameAndPasswordAsUsernameAndPassoword(String username, String password) {

login.provides_credentials(username, password);

}

@Then("I Click Login Button")

public void thenIClickLoginButton() {

login.click_button();

}

Jenkin Set Up Jenkins is an open source application which provides continuous

integration services for software development.

Jenkins focuses on the following two jobs:

1.   Building/testing software projects continuously, 2.   Monitoring executions of externally-run jobs Command to run test cases :- mvn clean install -Dstory.timeout.in.secs=30000
