WebdriverIO lets you use your favorite testing framework (Jasmine, Mocha, Cucumber) and assertion library (Chai for Mocha). Other projects implement their own testing and assertion APIs, for example Nightwatch, Intern. It should be mentioned though that v4.2.16 has an incompatibility with at least tap v7.1.2: stdout/stderr written during a run gets lost. See More
Chimp.js, is an emerging web application test framework that implements easy sync tests using WebdriverIO, CucumberJS and Chai. Features include: synchronous style built-in "widget framework" (an implementation of the PageObject pattern) automatically downloads dependencies (ChromeDriver, PhantomJS etc.) works with SauceLabs and BrowserStack (CrossBrowserTesting TBD) automatically takes screenshots on failures works on Windows in addition to Linux and OS X automatically produces boilerplate code for step definitions, which you can copy, paste and edit file watcher reuses the browser sessions and can run only the tests you tag, to maximize development speed See More
selenium-webdriverjs: driver.get('http://www.google.com');
driver.findElement(webdriver.By.id('q')).sendKeys('webdriver');
driver.findElement(webdriver.By.id('btnG')).click(); WD.js: browser
.get("http://www.google.com")
.elementById('q')
.sendKeys('webdriver')
.elementById('btnG')
.click() WebdriverIO: client
.url('http://google.com')
.setValue('#q','webdriver')
.click('#btnG') See More
webdriver-sync avoids this browser.get("http://foo.html", function() {
browser.title(function(err, title) {
assert.ok(~title.indexOf('foo title'), 'Wrong title!');
browser.elementById('i am a link', function(err, el) {
browser.clickElement(el, function() {
browser.eval("window.location.href", function(err, href) {
assert.ok(~href.indexOf('foo title 2'));
browser.quit();
});
});
});
});
}); in favor of this - completely synchronous API! No promises or callbacks needed: driver.get("http://foo.html");
title = driver.getTitle();
link = driver.findElement(By.id('i am a link'));
link.click();
assert(driver.getCurrentUrl().indexOf('foo title 2') > -1);
title.should.equal('foo title');
console.log(title);
driver.quit(); See More
Unlike WebdriverIO, which lets you use various test frameworks and assertion libraries (e.g. Jasmine, Cucumber, Mocha + Chai), Nightwatch comes with its own BDD-style interface for performing assertions, based on Chai. Here's a simple test example: module.exports = {
'Demo test Google' : function (browser) {
browser
.url('http://www.google.com')
.waitForElementVisible('body', 1000)
.setValue('input[type=text]', 'nightwatch')
.waitForElementVisible('button[name=btnG]', 1000)
.click('button[name=btnG]')
.pause(1000)
.assert.containsText('#main', 'Night Watch')
.end();
}
}; See More
webdriver-http-sync is a synchronous HTTP implementation of the WebDriver protocol for Node.js. As of August 2015, the majority of the 97 WebDriver methods aren't yet implemented, for example "forward", "back" and "submit". By comparison, WebdriveIO has implemented all JSONWire methods. See More
There is no need to pass the 'driver' instance around, and not as many parentheses. Using WD.js function login(username, password) {
return this
.waitForElementByCss('.loginForm', asserters.isDisplayed, seconds(explicit_wait))
.elementById('emailAddress').sendKeys(username)
.elementById('password').sendKeys(password)
.elementById('signInButton').click()
} Using WebDriverJS function login(driver, username, password) {
driver.wait(until.elementIsVisible(driver.findElement({css: '.loginForm'})), seconds(explicit_wait));
driver.findElement({id: 'emailAddress'}).sendKeys(username);
driver.findElement({id: 'password'}).sendKeys(password);
driver.findElement({id: 'signInButton'}).click();
} See More
