BugRaptors, can develop automated testing that brings cost lessening, time and effort saving, quicker response, consistency and quickly report generator, thereby directly adding to increment in efficiency and prompting boost of benefits by using Selenide and Selenium according to the requirement of the Project.

1. Selenide vs. Selenium: The War Of Technologies!!!

2. Selenide vs. Selenium: The War Of Technologies!!!
In today’s era, people use Selenide tool over Selenium
Web Driver tool. Selenide is a framework which is
developed for test automation using Selenium Web
Driver. Its API is too good to connect with Selenium
Web Driver.
Selenium has a great library for operating a web
browser, so it is just a web browser automation tool.
Selenium web driver support Cross Browser
Automation, Mobile browser, and native app
automation also. It will help us to open the browser
and copy (imitate) the user actions. It has low-level
API’s.

3. Introduction Regarding Selenium and Selenide
# Selenium
Web Driver is the best tool, but it’s not a testing tool.
Selenium Web Driver has several testing libraries, but
they do not resolve the following problems:
# UI (User Interface) tests.
# Tests Instability caused by: Dynamic Content,
JavaScript, Ajax, Timeout etc.

4. Introduction Regarding Selenium and Selenide
1. UI Tests- Ideally, we write unit test cases, functional
test cases, and integration test cases etc. for our
applications. In the case of web application, we
write scripts which open the page in the new
browser and start clicking on buttons.
2. Ajax and Timeouts- The tests scripts we write
today can use tomorrow, next week, and next month
but sometimes the tests scripts will fail because of the
CI server. Sometimes JavaScript gets slowly; some Ajax
requests take a long time; and some another process
also run at the same time with our tests scripts, which
occupied the server CPU space.

5. Introduction Regarding Selenium and Selenide
To overcome the above problem we use “sleep” or
“wait_until” methods in our test. But we cannot use
these methods regularly. Ideally, when we write tests,
then our main focus should be on business logic
without the need to bother about timeouts, waiting,
sleeping, WebDriver lifecycle, etc.

6. Introduction Regarding Selenium and Selenide
# Selenide
A selenide is a tool used for automated testing and the tool
created to resolve the Ajax/Timeouts problems. As we know
that brilliant tools do not need documentation and Selenide
is one of them. The whole work with Selenide consists of
three things:
# Open the page
# $(find element).doAction()
# $(find element).checkCondition()
Selenide is as simple as: $(selector).do()
Selenide IDE shows all possible variants once we pressed
the dot after writing $(“selector”)

7. How it Works?
In Selenide, every method should wait for few seconds. So
there is no need to use the sleeps and waits commands
under the code. For example we write a below mentioned
code line.
$(“#menu”).shouldHave(text(“Hello”));
In this code Selenide checks that element contains “Hello”.
If not, then element should updated dynamically and wait
for a little bit until it happens. For most web applications,
the default timeout is 4 seconds.

8. Benefits of Selenide over Selenium?

9. Benefits of Selenide over Selenium?
Selenide makes stability of tests by resolving Ajax and
Timeout issues. It provides below mentioned API’s:
# Ajax Support
# Smart Waiting
# Convenience Methods
# Automated Screenshots
# Transparent Web Driver

10. Differentiate the Selenide and Selenium with Example:
In selenium Web Driver, we write
By username = By.name(“username”);
driver.findElement(username).click();
In case of Selenide, we can simply write
By username = By.byName(“username”);
$(username).click();
Selenide has inbuilt mechanism for WebDriverWait, so
waiting for Ajax call is easy. We can expect stable testing
for an app with Ajax calls.

11. Tools Similar to Selenide:
Selenium Web Driver tool is not a testing tool, is a
browser driving tool. So that’s why several tools are
created over Selenium tool like FluentLenium, Fluent-
selenium, HTMLElements, Thucydides, Yandex, Watir-
webdriver. Selenide is one of them and it is created for
writing concise, expressive, clean code and stable UI
tests in Java.

12. Why Developers Write Automated Tests?
Testers treat the system as a black box, so developers
help them by writing automated tests by themselves.
And the main benefit of automated tests is that
developers create a simple architecture and clear design
when they are forced to write tests first.
