Clojure UI testing with Chrome. Special thanks to Timo L. for the awesome logo!
I needed a library for writing robust and maintainable UI tests for my work
and hobby Clojure(Script) projects. The library had to run on top of the
JVM to simplify test setups and enable code sharing, but without the
annoying WebDriver version hassle. cuic is a response to fill that gap.
The design of the current version of cuic is the result of countless
(re)written tests, hours after hours of CI test runs and endless debugging
sessions, driven by the following core principles:
- Prefer Clojure core data structures and language features to custom macros and DSLs
- Minimal and unambiguous but easily extendable API
- Seamless integration with
clojure.testand the tooling around it - First class REPL usage
Here's a small snippet showing how to test the classic
TodoMVC app with cuic
(ns example-todomvc-tests
(:require [clojure.test :refer :all]
[cuic.core :as c]
[cuic.test :refer [deftest* is* browser-test-fixture]]))
(use-fixtures
:once
(browser-test-fixture))
(defn todos []
(->> (c/query ".todo-list li")
(map c/text-content)))
(defn add-todo [text]
(doto (c/find ".new-todo")
(c/fill text))
(c/press 'Enter))
(deftest* creating-new-todos
(c/goto "http://todomvc.com/examples/react")
(is* (= [] (todos)))
(add-todo "Hello world!")
(is* (= ["Hello world!"] (todos)))
(add-todo "Tsers!")
(is* (= ["Hello world!" "Tsers!"] (todos))))Each cuic function has a Clojure doc-string describing its behaviour and usage.
