This is a framework for automating web browser interactions. The goal is to provide easily-understood, semantic functions for automated website testing, which automatically produce a beautiful and easily human-readable output log of all test progress and results, without the need for the human tester to configure the desired output. It is built on top of the Selenium WebDriver and Node.js.
This is currently regressed to an alpha release, as it is being adapted from a single-site testing framework to a more general and flexible one, to work more easily with a variety of different websites, and this work is still in progress. I can't release the completed, working single-site version publicly so as not to give away proprietary parts of it for free, but, can demonstrate it privately to interested parties, please contact me [email protected] for a demo if interested.
Right now it provides two main tools: A set of functions for automating browser interactions, and an output templating system to automatically generate nicely formatted and indented logs clearly showing the control flow of the tests and the results of the interactions.
To use the framework, you need to have Node.js installed. You can download it from nodejs.org.
It is not the intent of this document to explain how to install Node.js or run Selenium WebDriver tests — please refer to the official documentation for that, and the layout and use of these files should be clear.
Most of these files are documented in code comments in the files themselves.
This is the main file for the framework. It is used to initialize the framework and provide access to the framework's functions and data.
This file contains a the built-in functions for the framework. Right now this is the only reference for these functions.
This is the file that contains global settings for the framework. It is used to store the global settings for the framework.
This is the file that contains the site-specific settings for the framework. It is used to supply a test URL, and to create variables referring to the elements on the page that are used in the tests.
This is the file that contains user-created custom functions for the framework and custom logging function templates. The users can add their own functions to this file to be used in their tests, building on the functions provided by the framework.
This contans sample tests. Currently they're configured to run on the specifc site this was originally conceived for.
