Automation framework for the WebDriver API

Project description

PAF - Python Automation Framework

Python implementation of Testerra API.

It is basically a wrapper for Selenium WebDriver and WebElement which bring some more comfort features. This is not a test framework, but it implements some assertion features anyway.

The basic concept is, to identify WebElements on every action or property accessor to prevent StaleElementExceptions.

Quick start

import inject
import paf.config
from paf.locator import By
from paf.page import FinderPage, PageFactory

# Configure dependency injection
inject.configure(paf.config.inject)

# Instantiate the page factory
page_factory = inject.instance(PageFactory)

# Create a simple finder page
page = page_factory.create_page(FinderPage)

# Visit URL
page.open("https://google.com")

# Find element
element = page.find("#q")

# Perform actions
element.type("Search")

# Perform assertions
element.expect.text.be("Search")

Prerequisites

  • You need at least a local WebDriver installed.

    brew|choco|apt install chromedriver
    
  • Python 3.10 (or higher).

Feature list

Missing features (todos)

  • Rect assertions
  • ShadowRoot support
  • Drag & Drop over frames

Environment variables

  • PAF_BROWSER_SETTING=chrome:90: Sets the requested browser name and it's version.
  • PAF_WINDOW_SIZE=1920x1080: Sets the browsers default window size.
  • PAF_SCREENSHOTS_DIR=screenshots: Sets the screenshots' directory.
  • PAF_SEQUENCE_WAIT_AFTER_FAIL=0.3: Wait in seconds whenever a sequence action fails.
  • PAF_SEQUENCE_RETRY_COUNT=3: Retry count for every sequence action.

Examples

I added two examples.

  1. test_google.py: is a regular Google search, implemented with Page Objects and Components.
  2. test_todo_mvc.py: are re-implemented test cases from the Robot Framework TodoMVC example. It's IMHO developer friendly, better readable and less code.

Developer area

Run the tests

PYTHONPATH="." pytest --numprocesses=4 --cov=paf test

Utils

xpath = "//dt[.//text()='Title:']/following-sibling::dd[1]"
snapshot = document.evaluate(xpath, document.body, null, XPathResult.ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE)
snapshot.snapshotItem(0).textContent

Release update

  1. Update version in setup.py
  2. Package library
    python setup.py sdist
    
  3. Publish library
    twine upload dist/python-automation-framework-[version].tar.gz
