Selenium Test Automation One of the most important success factors in test automation is selection of the right tool. Among a broad range of commercial and free tools Selenium has become one of the mainstream tools in the market. Although it is an open source tool it is very flexible, robust and has a rich feature set especially for regression testing. It also has advanced integration capabilities with other commercial and open source tools and frameworks. As the leading Software Testing company in its region Keytorc has a dedicated team specialized on test automation team with Selenium. For more information about Selenium and test automation please contact with our team: www.keytorc.com http://blogs.keytorc.com/ Selenium ile Test Otomasyonu Test otomasyonunda en önemli başarı faktörlerinden biri doğru test aracını seçmektir. Çok sayıda ticari ve ücretsiz open source aracın olduğu test otomasyon pazarında son birkaç senede Selenium en çok kullanılan araçlardan bir tanesi haline gelmiştir. Ücretsiz olmasına rağmen Selenium esnek, güvenilir ve özellikle regresyon testleri için zengin özelliklere sahip bir otomasyon aracıdır. Selenium’un bir çok farklı test otomasyon aracı ve yazılım geliştirme platformu ile entegrasyon özelliği bulunmaktadır. Yazılım test sektörünün lider firması olan Keytorc’un Selenium konusunda uzmanlaşmış bir ekibi bulunmaktadır.

Selenium

2. Selenium
Selenium automates browsers.
That's it. What you do with that power is entirely up to
you. Primarily it is for automating web applications for
testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that.
Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should!)
also be automated as well.
Selenium has the support of some of the largest browser
vendors who have taken (or are taking) steps to make
Selenium a native part of their browser. It is also the core
technology in countless other browser automation tools,
APIs and frameworks.

4. Selenium IDE
Selenium IDE is a Firefox plugin
which records and plays back
user interactions with the
browser. Use this to either
create simple scripts or assist in
exploratory testing.
It can also export Remote
Control or WebDriver scripts,
though they tend to be
somewhat brittle and should be
overhauled into some sort of
Page Object-y structure for any
kind of resiliency.

5. Selenium 1.0 – Remote Control
Selenium RC was the main Selenium project for a long time, before the WebDriver/Selenium
merge brought up Selenium 2, the newest and more powerful tool.
Selenium 1 is still actively supported (mostly in maintenance mode) and provides some
features that may not be available in Selenium 2 for a while, including support for several
languages (Java, Javascript, Ruby, PHP, Python, Perl and C#) and support for almost every
browser out there.

6. Selenium 1.0 – Grid
Selenium-Grid allows the Selenium RC
solution to scale for large test suites and
for test suites that must be run in
multiple environments.
Selenium Grid allows you to run your
tests in parallel, that is, different tests
can be run at the same time on different
remote machines.
This additional server piece allows the
several Remote Control servers to
accessed in parallel by one or more
driving processes. You may want to do
this if you want to use scale to speed
everything up, or because you need to
test on Mac and/or Linux, as well as
Windows from one driving test-suite.

7. Selenium 2.0 – WebDriver
The primary new feature in Selenium 2.0 is the integration of the WebDriver API.
WebDriver is designed to provide a simpler, more concise programming interface in
addition to addressing some limitations in the Selenium-RC API.
Selenium WebDriver was developed to better support dynamic web pages where
elements of a page may change without the page itself being reloaded.
WebDriver’s goal is to supply a well-designed object-oriented API that provides improved
support for modern advanced web-app testing problems.

8. Selenium 1.0 vs. 2.0
 Selenium WebDriver makes direct calls to the browser using each browser’s native support
for automation.
 For those familiar with Selenium-RC, this is quite different from what you are used to.
Selenium-RC worked the same way for each supported browser. It ‘injected’ javascript
functions into the browser when the browser was loaded and then used its javascript to
drive the AUT within the browser. WebDriver does not use this technique. Again, it drives
the browser directly using the browser’s built in support for automation.

9. Selenium WebDriver – Development Environment
 IntelliJ, development environment
 JUnit, unit testing framework
 Maven, build tool

10. IntelliJ
IntelliJ IDEA is a Java IDE by JetBrains, available as an
Apache 2 Licensed community edition and commercial
edition. It is often simply referred to as "IDEA" or
"IntelliJ"

11. IntelliJ

12. JUnit
JUnit is a unit testing framework for the Java
programming language. JUnit has been important in the
development of test-driven development, and is one of
a family of unit testing frameworks which is collectively
known as xUnit that originated with SUnit.
JUnit is linked as a JAR at compile-time; the framework resides under package
junit.framework for JUnit 3.8 and earlier, and under package org.junit for JUnit 4
and later.
A JUnit test fixture is a Java object. With older versions of JUnit, fixtures had to
inherit from junit.framework.TestCase, but the new tests using JUnit 4 should not
do this. Test methods must be annotated by the @Test annotation.

14. JUnit
 If you do not use IDE, add a method ‘suite()’, it automatically creates a test suite
including all test methods.
 Then add a main method and use textui runner run all test cases.

15. Maven
Maven is a build automation tool used primarily for Java projects.
Maven serves a similar purpose to the Apache Ant tool, but it is
based on different concepts and works in a different manner.
Maven uses an XML file to describe the software project being built, its dependencies on
other external modules and components, the build order, directories, and required plugins.
 It comes with pre-defined targets for performing certain well-defined tasks such as
compilation of code and its packaging.
Maven dynamically downloads Java libraries and Maven plug-ins from one or more
repositories such as the Maven 2 Central Repository, and stores them in a local cache.
 This local cache of downloaded artifacts can also be updated with artifacts created
by local projects. Public repositories can also be updated.

16. Maven
Maven projects are configured using a Project Object Model, which is stored in a
pom.xml-file.
This POM only defines a
unique identifier for the
project (coordinates) and its
dependency on the JUnit
framework.
However, that is already
enough for building the project
and running the unit tests
associated with the project.
Maven accomplishes this by
embracing
the idea of
Convention
over
Configuration, that is, Maven
provides default values for the
project's configuration.

17. Maven
The directory structure of a normal idiomatic Maven
project has the following directory entries:
