How To Open A Web Page In Selenium

In my earlier posts, we have learned WebDriver's Drivers, WebDriver's Commands. In this tutorial, we will learn how to navigate on specific page or URL.

1. get(String URL) - This method will load a web page of given URL in the current browser.

Example: driver.get(“www.google.com”);


2. driver.navigate().to(String URL) - This method will load a web page of given URL in the current browser.

Example: driver.navigate().to("http://www.google.com");

Difference between get() and navigate()

Both navigate().to() and get() do exactly the same thing but with navigate we can go to the next page OR come back to the previous page OR refresh the current page.

1. driver.navigate().forward() - This command is used to go next page. Click here for example.

2. driver.navigate().back() - This command is used to go previous page. Click here for example.

3. driver.navigate().refresh() - This command is used to refresh the current page. Click here for example.

How To List Excepted Exception Of Test Method

Let's see how to list excepted exceptions that a test method can throw. If the test method throw no exception or throw other than excepted exceptions then the test will be marked a failure.

In the below example, there are two test methods -

1. exceptionTest - This test method result will be pass because the actual and expected exceptions is same (i.e. ArithmeticException).

2. exceptionTest1 - This test method result will be fail because the actual and expected exceptions is different.

Example Of TestNG expectedExceptions

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class ExceptedExceptionTest {

 @Test(expectedExceptions = ArithmeticException.class)
 public void exceptionTest(){
  int i = 6 / 0;
  
 }
 
 @Test(expectedExceptions = ArithmeticException.class)
 public void exceptionTest1(){
  int i = 65675.7676 / 2;

Selenium WebDriver’s Commands

WebDriver is an interface in Selenium. WebDriver provides a set of methods that we use to automate web application for testing purpose.


1. get(String URL) - This method will load a web page of given URL in the current browser.

Example: driver.get(“www.google.com”);


2. getCurrentUrl() – This method will return a string representing URL of the current web page that the browser is looking at.

Syntax: driver.getCurrentUrl();


3. getTitle() - This method will return title of the current web page.

Syntax: driver.getTitle();


4. getPageSource() - This method will provide you the source of the last loaded page.

Syntax: driver.getPageSource();


5. close() - If there is multiple windows opened, this method will close the current window and quit the browser, if the current window is the last window opened.

Syntax: driver.close();


6. quit() - Quits all the windows opened.

Syntax: driver.quit();


7. getWindowHandles() - Return a set of string representing window handles which can be used to iterate over all open windows of this WebDriver instance by passing them to switchTo().WebDriver.Options.window().

Syntax: driver.getWindowHandles();


8. getWindowHandle() - Return a string representing window handle of the main window that uniquely identifies it within this driver instance.

Syntax: driver.getWindowHandle();





9. manage() - Gets the Option interface.

Example: driver.manage().addCookie(cookie);

Selenium WebDriver Commands Example

package testng;
 
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
 
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

public class SeleniumDriver {
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver",
                "C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe");
 
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 
        driver.get("http://www.google.com");
 
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
 
        WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
 
        System.out.println("URl of current web page -" + " "
                + driver.getCurrentUrl());
 
        element.sendKeys("Selenium!");
 
        System.out.println("Title of current web page -" + " "
                + driver.getTitle());
 
        System.out.println("Window Handle -" + " " + driver.getWindowHandle());
 
        System.out.println("Page Source -" + " " + driver.getPageSource());
 
        driver.close();
 
    }

Selenium WebDriver’s Drivers

Selenium WebDriver’s driver (i.e. browser driver) is required to make a direct calls to the browser using browser’s native support for automation.

In selenium, FirefoxDriver, InternetExplorerDriver, ChromeDriver and HtmlUnitDriver is a class which implements WebDriver interface.

Selenium WebDriver’s Driver For Different Browsers

1. Firefox Driver: Let’s see how to create Firefox browser’s driver object -

• WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

2. Chrome Driver: Let’s see how to create Chrome browser’s driver object -

• WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

3. Internet Explorer Driver: Let’s see how to create Internet Explorer browser’s driver object -

• WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

4. HtmlUnit Driver: Let’s see how to create HtmlUnit browser’s driver object -

• WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();

Selenium WebDriver’s Driver Example

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
 
public class SeleniumDriver {
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
 
        // Create object of the Firefox driver
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 
        // Open Google       
        driver.get("http://www.google.com");
 
        // Find the text input element by its name
        WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
 
        // Enter text to search for
        element.sendKeys("Selenium!");
 
    }

One Test Case Depends On Other Test Cases

TestNG provides “@Test” annotation along with attribute “dependsOnMethods”. There may be a requirement to make a test case to depends on other test cases. To make a test case to depends on other test cases, we need to use dependsOnMethods attribute with @Test annotation.

 DependsOnMethods Testng Example

 

There are three test cases named “LoginTest”, “WorkflowTest” and “LogoutTest”.

1. WorkflowTest depends on LoginTest. If LoginTest test case failed then WorkflowTest test case will skipped.

2. LogoutTest depends on LoginTest and WorkflowTest test cases. If LoginTest or WorkflowTest test case failed then LogoutTest test case will skipped.

TestNG DependsOnMethods

import org.testng.Assert;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
 
public class TestCasePriority {
 
    @Test(priority=1)
    public void LoginTest(){
        Assert.assertEquals("true", "false");
    }
 
    @Test(priority=2, dependsOnMethods={"LoginTest"})
    public void WorkflowTest(){
        System.out.println(" This test case should Skipped, if LoginTest test case Failed");
    }
 
    @Test(priority=3, dependsOnMethods={"LoginTest", "WorkflowTest"})
    public void LogoutTest(){
        System.out.println(" This test case should Skipped, if LoginTest or WorkflowTest test case Failed");
        System.out.println(" ");
    }
 
}

How To Set Priority Of Execution Of Test Cases

We need to set priority of test cases to execute test case in a particular order. If we do not set priority of test cases then we are not sure the order of execution of test case (i.e. Logout test case may run or execute before Login test case).

Steps to test an application

1. Login

2. Workflow

3. Logout


There is three test cases

1. Login test case

2. Workflow test case

3. Logout test case

How to set priority of test cases

import org.testng.annotations.Test;
 
public class TestCasePriority {
     
    @Test(priority=1)
    public void LoginTest(){
        System.out.println(" Login Test case should execute first");
    }
     
    @Test(priority=2)
    public void WorkflowTest(){
        System.out.println(" Workflow Test case should not execute before Login test case");
    }
     
    @Test(priority=3)
    public void LogoutTest(){
        System.out.println(" Logout should not execute before Login and Workflow test cases");
        System.out.println(" ");
    }
 
}

TestNG Annotations List

In this tutorial, I will introduce you with TestNG annotations list. TestNG acts as a controller. TestNG controls the flow of execution of code with the help of annotations.

TestNG Annotations List

Annotations	Description
@BeforeSuite	The annotated method will run before all test methods run in this suite.
@AfterSuite	The annotated method will run after all test methods run in this suite.
@BeforeTest	The annotated method will run before any test method belonging to the classes.
@AfterTest	The annotated method will run after all the test methods belonging to the classes.
@BeforeGroups	The annotated method will run before the first test method that belongs to any of these groups is invoked.
@AfterGroups	The annotated method will run after the last test method that belongs to any of these groups is invoked.
@BeforeClass	The annotated method will run before the first test method run in the current class.
@AfterClass	The annotated method will run before all the first test methods run in the current class.
@BeforeMethod	The annotated method will run before each test method.
@AfterMethod	The annotated method will run after each test method.
@DataProvider	The annotated method provide data to the @Test methods. The annotated method returns an Object[][].
@Test	The annotated method contains test cases.

To understand more about TestNG Annotations and attributes (i.e. @Test, @DataProvider,... etc) with examples then look at Data-Driven Framework tutorial.

Let's understand the TestNG Annotations list with an example

package testng;

import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterSuite;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeSuite;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class TestNGAnnotations {

 @BeforeSuite
 public void instantiate() {
  System.out.println("Instantiate Object");
 }

 @BeforeTest
 public void dataBaseConnection() {
  System.out.println("Database Connected");
 }

 @BeforeMethod
 public void BeforeMethod() {
  System.out.println("Run before each Test Case.");
 }

 @Test
 public void testCase1() {
  System.out.println("First Test Case Result..... ");
 }
 
 @Test
 public void testCase2() {
  System.out.println("Second Test Case Result.... ");
 }

 @AfterMethod
 public void AfterMethod() {
  System.out.println("Run after each Test Case");
 }

 @AfterTest
 public void dataBaseDisconnection() {
  System.out.println("Database Disconnected");
 }

 @AfterSuite
 public void destory() {
  System.out.println("Destory Object");
 }
}
