QVisual

Tinkoff tool to control quality by visual testing.

It's the fastest approach for developers to take a feedback of web page layout and styles quality for Reactjs Storybook or Angular, about a lot of landing pages and to comcentrate QA team attention on functional tests by automaticaly get 100% pixels comparison for screenshots of all popular browsers.

This tool contains 3 modules: screenshoter (framework to take and save visual data), visualreport (jar application for REST API to save and generate visual comparison report), webreport (Reactjs application to view screenshots and pixel-by-pixel comparison).

Module screenshoter

This module takes rendered web page visual data by frameworks SeleniumHQ/selenium and yandex-qatools/ashot.

Requirements

Maven 3.5.2+ (or check Maven is installed by command mvn -version)

Usage screenshoter

1. To start Selenium WebDriver

It's required to have Selenium WebDriver to take a screenshot. There is a method getDriver in a class WebDriverManager that starts all popular browsers Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet explorer on your local machine or on services Selenium Grid, Selenoid, BrowserStack.

(BrowserStack requires to launch binary for local testing (for Windows run command: ./screenshoter/src/main/resources/BrowserStackLocal-windows.exe --key BROWSERSTACK_TOKEN --force-local, for MAC run command: ./screenshoter/src/main/resources/BrowserStackLocal-mac --key BROWSERSTACK_TOKEN --force-local)

There are a lot of parameters for starting browser in properties section of the parent pom.xml with default values:

<properties>
    <!--Browser parameters-->
    <driver.service></driver.service>
    <webdriver.remote.url></webdriver.remote.url>
    <device></device>
    <platform.name></platform.name>
    <platform.version></platform.version>
    <browser.headless>false</browser.headless>
    <browser.name>chrome</browser.name>
    <browser.version></browser.version>
    <browser.retina>false</browser.retina>
    <webdriver.dir>${project.basedir}/target/webdriver</webdriver.dir>
    <download_dir.path>${project.basedir}/target/download</download_dir.path>

    <!--BrowserStack parameters-->
    <browserstack.url></browserstack.url>
    <browserstack.selenium.version>3.14.0</browserstack.selenium.version>
    <browserstack.appium_version>1.8.0</browserstack.appium_version>
    <browserstack.device.orientation>portrait</browserstack.device.orientation>
    <realMobile>false</realMobile>

    <!--Selenoid parameters-->
    <enableVNC>true</enableVNC>
    <enableVideo>false</enableVideo>
</properties>

driver.service

If value is empty then tests are started on local machine.

Values: selenoid, grid, browserstack.

webdriver.remote.url

(Required for non-local run) This value should be equal to the HUB of Selenium Grid, Selenoid or BrowserStack.

device

(Required for mobile device in BrowserStack) A device name from BrowserStack capabilities.

platform.name

(Required) A platform name.

Values: WIN, MAC, LINUX.

platform.version

A platform version.

browser.headless

To execute browser in the background.

browser.name

(Required) A browser name.

Values: chrome, safari, firefox, internet explorer.

browser.version

(Required for BrowserStack, Selenoid) A browser version.

webdriver.dir

(Required) A directory path to download the last version of webdriver by library bonigarcia/webdrivermanager.

download_dir.path

(Required) A directory path to download files from browser.

browserstack.url

(Required for BrowserStack) BrowserStack hub URL.

browserstack.selenium.version

(Required for BrowserStack) BrowserStack selenium version.

browserstack.appium_version

(Required for BrowserStack) BrowserStack Appium version.

browserstack.device.orientation

(Required for BrowserStack) BrowserStack mobile device orientation.

realMobile

(Required for BrowserStack) BrowserStack real mobile or emulator.

enableVNC

(Required for Selenoid) Disable or enable VNC.

enableVideo

(Required for Selenoid) Disable or enable video recording.

2. To take screenshots

There is a method takeScreen in a class ScreenShooter that takes a screenshot in all popular browsers: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer on your local machine or through services Selenium Grid, Selenoid, BrowserStack.

This method provides resizing browser display and taking a full page or a visible viewport screenshot, but it depends on browser:

Chrome - full page or viewport,

Safari - full page,

Firefox - full page or viewport,

Internet Explorer - there are troubles because Selenium API method to take a screenshot returns a black image.

There are required parameters in properties section of the main pom.xml with default values:

<properties>
    <browser.resolution>1440x900</browser.resolution>
    <screen.resolutions>1440x900,1024x900,768x900</screen.resolutions>
    <screen.scroll.timeout>500</screen.scroll.timeout>
    <resize.timeout>1000</resize.timeout>
</properties>

browser.resolution

(Required) Default display size. If value is empty browser will be maximized.

screen.resolutions

Array of browser sizes sequentially applied to browser windows before to take a new screenshot. After the last size of sequence is applied the browser is restored to default browser size from parameter browser.resolution.

resize.timeout

Timeout after resizing browser.

screen.scroll.timeout

(Required for Firefox) Timeout of scrolling for AShot framework.

3. To take computed CSS values of web-elements

There is a method getElements in a class WebDriverUtils that takes a web-element computed CSS values, coordinates and size.

This method requires a list of web-elements XPath (or CSS) locators of web page.

Example web-elements XPath locators: ./demo/src/test/resources/main.txt.

If you have to store just one item from a founded list of elements - add its order number (start from 0) at the end of locator, for example: //div%0 returns the first founded item from list of WebElements.

If locator founds a list of web-elements - all of them would be stored with their order numbers at the end.

To find element inside of iframe - add a prefix to locator with iframe and @id attribute, for example: //iframe[@id=‘my-iframe’]//div[contains(@class, ‘my-class’)] returns WebElement by locator //div[contains(@class, ‘my-class’)] inside of iframe with ID "my-iframe".

4. To take and store visual data

There is a method createSnapshot in a class SnapShooter that sends all visual data of web page to the backend server by API POST /snapshots/create.

There are required parameters in properties section of the main pom.xml with default values:

<properties>
    <backend.domain>http://localhost:8081</backend.domain>
    <frontend.domain>http://localhost:5000</frontend.domain>
    <dateTime></dateTime>
</properties>

    <base.url></base.url>
    <branch></branch>
    <commit></commit>
</properties>

server (or base.url)

Domain of web page.

branch

Requirements

npm

npm serve package

Start webreport

  1. Download QVisual-webreport project and go to the QVisual-webproject root directory.

  2. Install dependencies:

     npm i
    
  3. Compile build with default backend URL http://localhost:8081 :

     npm run build:test:zip
    

    Or compile build with custom backend URL (if case of using custom backend URL check that all parameters have the same host and port - spark.host, spark.port, backend.domain):

     REACT_APP_API='BACKEND_URL' PUBLIC_API='/' npx react-scripts-ts build
    
  4. Start web server:

     serve -s -p 5000 ./build
    
  5. Open web report:

     http://localhost:5000/web/actual/ACTUAL_DATE_TIME/expected/EXPECTED_DATE_TIME
    

Run demo tests

You just have to add one method snapshot from SnapShoter class to take and save screenshots. OpenUrlsTests is an example test with 2 web pages and list of web-elements.

The snapshot method takes a screenshot and calls the API method of visualreport server to store data of tests in MonogoDB and save screenshots to the original screenshots directory.

  1. Start visualreport and webreport.

  2. Build tests:

     mvn -pl demo -am clean install -DskipTests
    
  3. Run tests on test server to store visual data with parameter ACTUAL_DATETIME (use -P with profile name from parent pom.xml to override default browser properties):

     mvn -f demo/pom.xml test -DdateTime=ACTUAL_DATETIME -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml -P browser_chrome
    
  4. Run tests on release server to store visual data with parameter EXPECTED_DATETIME (use -P with profile name from parent pom.xml to override default browser properties):

     mvn -f demo/pom.xml test -DdateTime=EXPECTED_DATETIME -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml -P browser_chrome
    
  5. View web report after tests finished by ACTUAL_DATETIME and EXPECTED_DATETIME dates by URL http://localhost:5000/web/actual/ACTUAL_DATETIME/expected/EXPECTED_DATETIME
