[Link] is automation Testing?

Automation testing is the process of doing testing without any manual

intervention. We automate manual test cases using any of the automation
tools with any of one programming language.

[Link] do we need to Automate? Or Advantages of Automation.

• To Save time
• To save money
• Reusable (we can run same test cases any number of times like regression
testing)
• Error-prone human behaviour.

[Link] of Automation Testing?

 Test Automation requires lot of effort at initial stage.
 100% Test automation is impractical.
 All types of Testing not possible (Ex: Usability).
 Debugging issues.
 Tools may have their own defects.
 Programming Knowledge is required.

[Link] is selenium?
It is open-source Automation Test Suit for web bases applications across
different browsers (Chrome, Firefox etc) and different platforms (Windows,
Mac etc)
It supports multiple programming langue: Java, c#, python. etc

What is selenium IDE?
Selenium IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment.
It is simple and easy to use.
No prior programming knowledge is required.
It is used as prototyping tool.

Selenium WebDriver?
-It is a component of selenium suite.
-It is a java interface, implemented by browser classes.
-It is an API (Application Program Interface) mediator between browser and
client libraries.
Web Driver is the key interface against which tests are written, but there are
several implementations.
These include:
● HtmlUnit Driver
● Firefox Driver
● Internet Explorer Driver
● Chrome Driver
● Opera Driver
● iOS Driver
● Microsoft Edge

[Link] Web Driver Architecture
Selenium 3.0 Architecture:

Selenium Web Driver Installation

[Link] Web Driver – First Test Case

Write a script for login application and verify Title of the application.

[Link] to launch browser in selenium web driver

Web Web Driver commands
Browser
[Link](“KEY”,”VALUE”) WebDriver driver=new
BrowserClass();
Mozilla [Link](“[Link]”,”[Link]
Firefox e”) WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();
Google [Link](“[Link]”,”PathOfGeckodriver.
Chrome exe”) WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver();
Internet [Link](“[Link]”,”[Link]”)
Explore WebDriver driver=new InternetExploreDriver();
[Link] driver commands to open web page
get method navigate() method
[Link](“URL”) [Link](“URL”)
Web driver will wait until the page It is only responsible for redirecting
has fully loaded before test or script. the page and then returning
immediately
It cannot track the history of the It tracks the browser history and can
browser perform back and forth in the
browser. Page refresh option is also
available in navigation() method .
[Link]().refresh;
[Link]();
[Link]().back();

[Link] is locators
-Identify Web Elements
-Locating strategies:
Basic Locating Strategies: By ID, By Name, By Class name, By Tag name, By
Link Text, By partial Link Text.
Customized Locating strategies: By CSS and By XPath
Web driver methods to find web element
-findElement();
-findElements();
Basic Locators:
By ID
By name
By class name
By tag name
By link text
By partial link text
Particle -1
[Link] web page
[Link] username by id
[Link] password by name
[Link] login button
[Link] to product page(Using getWindowHandle)
[Link]().window(currentwindownHandle)
[Link] sauce labs bolt t-shart
[Link] partial linktext
By CSS selector : Cascading Style Sheets
HTML Tag,id,class ,attribute Syntex
combination
Tag and id (tag#id)
Tag and class ([Link] of class)
Tag and attribute (tag[attribute=value])
Tag,class and attribute ([Link][attribute=value])
Sub-string (start with=,ends
with=$,contains=*),tag[attribute=substring]

Practical:
[Link] chrome browser
[Link] swag lab web page
[Link] username name -tag#id using css selector
4.. Locate password name - Tag and attribute(name=’password’)
[Link] Login button using [Link] of class name
[Link] to product page using getWindown handel
switchTo().window
[Link] on add to cart – Tag,class and attribute.
[Link] is XPath?
XPath is the language used for locating nodes in an XML document. As HTML
can be an implementation of XML (XHTML), Selenium users can leverage this
powerful language to target elements in their web applications.
XPath extends beyond the simple methods of locating by id or name attributes,
and opens up all sorts of new possibilities such as locating the second radio
button on the page.
Reasons for using XPath is when I don’t have a suitable id or name attribute for
the element I wish to locate. You can use XPath to either locate the element in
absolute or relative to an element that does not have an id or name attribute.
XPath locators can also be used to specify elements via attributes other than id
and name.
-XPath stands for XML path
-it is query language to locate nodes in XML document
-It gives complete address of web element.
How to get XPath of web Element?
[Link] automatically using browser plugin
-Chrome Browser: SelectorsHub
-FireFox browser – Firepath,Chropath
[Link] XPath manually
Different ways and methods for writing XPath
[Link] XPath
[Link] XPath
[Link] Attribute
[Link] Attribute
[Link]
[Link]
[Link]()
8.starts_with()()
[Link]()
[Link]()
[Link]()
[Link] XPath:
- It starts with the root node.
-Starts with the forward slash (/) .
if x path is calculated from beginning of the root of HTML tag to locate then it
is known as absolute x path. ex: //Html/body/H1/input. Absolute XPaths
contain the location of all elements from the root (html) and as a result
chances to fail if slightest adjustments to the application.
Advantages :It identifies the element very fast.
Disadvantages: If anything goes wrong like some other tag added or removed
in between then this path will no longer works,

-Example
Webpage-[Link]
Web Element -username
/html[1]/body[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/form[1]/input[1]
[Link] XPath:
-A relative XPath starts from the element to be located and not from the root
It starts with double forward slash // .
if x path is calculated with nearest unique value then it is known as relative x
path. ex: xpath=//@frames/id=submit. By finding a nearby element with an id
or name attribute (ideally a parent element) you can locate your target
element based on the relationship. This is much less likely to change and can
make your tests more robust.
Advantages: You don’t need to mention the long XPath, you can start from the
middle or in between.
Disadvantages: It will take more time in identifying the element as we specify
the partial path not (exact path)
Syntax:
XPath - //tagename[@attribute name=’attribute value’]
[Link] -using single attribute
//<HTML tag>[@attribute_name=’attribute_value’]
Or
//*[@attribute_name=’attribute_value’]

[Link]-using multiple attribute:

//<HTML tag>[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’]
[@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Or
//*[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’]
//*[@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Note:* after double slash is to match any tag with the desired text.
Piratical-Login Script for any application using xpath
[Link]-Using And Expression
//<HTML tag>[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’ and
@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Or
//*[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’ and
@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Note: Both conditions should be true
[Link]-Using OR Expression
//<HTML tag>[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’ or
@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Or
//*[@attribute_name1=’attribute_value1’ or
@attribute_name2=’attribute_value2’]
Note: At least one condition should be true
Piratical-Using condition AND or OR XPath
[Link] application
[Link] to product page-getWindowHandle
[Link] on product details.

[Link] -Using contains ()

Contains() method helps in locating the UI element using partial text.
Syntax:
//<HTML tag>[contains(@attribute_name,’attribute_value1’)]
OR
//*[ contains(@attribute_name,’attribute_value1’)]
Note:’*’ after double slash is to match any tag with the desired text.

[Link] -Using starts-with

Syntax:
//<HTML tag>[starts-with (@attribute_name,’attribute_value1’)]
OR
//*[ starts-with(@attribute_name,’attribute_value1’)]
Example:
-Id= “message12”
-Id= “message345”
-Id= “message8769”
Practical: Login application.

[Link]-Using text
Syntax:
//<HTML tag>[text=’text’]
OR
//*[ text=’text’]
[Link] -using position()
//tag-name[@attrubute-type=’attribute-value’][position()=value]
You can use this if more than one child name having same name in parent
element.
[Link]-using las()
//tag-name[@attrubute-type=’attribute-value’][last()]
//input[@type=’text’][last()]

[Link] of Dropdown using select class:

-Select class is used to interact with Dropdown web elements.
-Commonly used command for dropdown interactions.
ACTIONS WEB DRIVER METHODS
To select/deselect values from selectByVisibleText()
dropdown deselectByVisibleText()

selectByValue()
deselectByValue()

selectByIndex()
deselectByIndex()

deselectAll()
To check if the drop-down element IsMultiple()
allows multiple selections at a time
To get options from dropdown getOptions()

Program:
[Link] browser.
[Link] Application
[Link] Select class
[Link] the values from drop-down using
selectByVisibleTest(),selectByValue(),selectByIndex() methods.
[Link] :Check drop down is multiple or not using if else .
[Link] all the drop-down values .using getOptions() method. Using for each
loop.

[Link] Operations (Actions Class)

How to perform Mouse Operation
In Selenium webdriver, Actions class is used to handling keyword and mouse
operation.
Below are some of the methods to perform keyword and mouse operations.
ACTIONS ACTIONS CLASS METHODS
Perform right click operation on the contextClick();
mouse
Perform double click on the element. doubleClick();
Drags the element from one point dragAndDrop();
and drops to another.
Move the mouse pointer to the moveToElement();
centre of the element.
Perform long click on the mouse clickAndHold();
without releasing it.

[Link] to Upload file

We can upload the file using below method and class.
[Link] () method: We can use sendKeys() method to upload file for
windows bases Alerts/Pop-up.
Note: You can use sendKyes() method if type=’file’ in html properties.
[Link] class: Robot class using keypress and key release method.
Program: Robot class
[Link] Open.
[Link] WebElement.
[Link] Actions – Using Actions class
[Link] Robot class
[Link] file to clip board -Using StringSelect class
StringSelection ss = new StringSelection(“path of the file”);
[Link](). getSystemSclipboard().setContents(ss,null);
[Link] control +v action to past file using
keypress(keyEvent.VK_CONTROL)
keypress(keyEvent.VK_V);
keyRelease(keyEvent.VK_CONTROL)
keyReleasekeyEvent.VK_V);
//Enter Key
keyPress(keyEvent.VK_ENTER);
keyReleasekeyEvent.VK_ENTER);

[Link] Popup
What is Alert in selenium
An alert in selenium is a small message box which appears on screen to given
the user some information of notification.
Types of Alerts:
-Simple Alert: Display information or waring.
-Conformation Alert – asks permission to do some type of operation.
-Prompt Alert: Prompt Alert asks some inputs from the user.
[Link]().alert().accept(); //Click on ok button
[Link]().alert().dismiss(); //Click on cancel button
[Link]().alert().sendKeys(); //Enter text on popup
[Link] Table
What is Web Table
Web Table is web element used to tabular representation of the data .
Program:1
Print the value of second column.
Program:2
Print the all values from table.

[Link] to Handel Tool Tip

A Tooltip is a text that appears when a mouse hovers over an abject/web
element on a web page.
The object /web element can be a link, an image, a button, a text area etc.
The tooltip text often gives more information about the object/web element
on which the user hovers over the mouse cursor.
Example:

Note: You can check the tooltip message using getAttribute(); method to
compare the actual tooltip and the expected tool tip message.

[Link] To Open New Tab Or Window

In Selenium Version 4 , you can open new window & tab using “newWindow”
command.
Example:
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
//Open New Window
[Link]().newWindow([Link]);
//Open New Tab
[Link]().newWindow([Link])
Program :
[Link] chrome browser.
[Link] URL
[Link] New Tab
[Link] window handles of open windows

[Link] issue
What is synchronization issue
The process of matching test automation tool speed with speed of application
under rest is synchronization.
Whenever webdriver tries to perform operation on element not loaded in
application under test , in such case webdriver will throw exception
“NoSuchElementExpection” or “ElementNoVisibleExpection” .This happens
due to synchronization issue.
Synchronization in selenium webdriver
Thread. Sleep(ms): It is unconditional and it is method of java .
Implicit Wait
Uses to set the default waiting time throughout the program.
It is global wait (it’s applied for all web element in the script) and it’s not web
element specific.
Syntax :
[Link]().TimeOuts().implicitlyWait(10,[Link]);//Before
Selenium 4
driver. manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait([Link]()10));//After
selenium 4
Explicit wait:
Used to set the waiting time for a particular instance only.
It’s web element specific.
We can mentation the condition for specific element.
Syntax:
/*Explicit wait for dropdown webelement*/
WebDriver wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,10);//Before Selenium 4
WebDriver wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,[Link](10));//After
Selenium 4
[Link]([Link]([Link](“dropdown”)));
Let us discuss a few of them at length:
#1) elementToBeClickable() – The expected condition waits for an element to
be clickable i.e. it should be present/displayed/visible on the screen as well as
enabled.
Sample Code
[Link]([Link]([Link](“//
div[contains(text(),’COMPOSE’)]”)));
#2) textToBePresentInElement() – The expected condition waits for an
element having a certain string pattern.
Sample Code
[Link]([Link]([Link](“//
div[@id= ‘forgotPass'”), “text to be found”));
#3) alertIsPresent()- The expected condition waits for an alert box to appear.
Sample Code
[Link]([Link]()) !=null);
#4) titleIs() – The expected condition waits for a page with a specific title.
Sample Code
[Link]([Link](“gmail”));
#5) frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt() – The expected condition waits for a
frame to be available and then as soon as the frame is available, the control
switches to it automatically.
Sample Code
[Link]([Link]([Link](“newfr
ame”)));
Fluent wait
Used to set the waiting time but it will deep checking for element present in
given interval of times ,As soon as abject found it continue of execution
of code.
Its same as explicitly wait.
//Before selenium 4
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluneWait<WebDriver>(driver)
.withTimeout(10,[Link])
.pollingEvery(5,[Link])
.ignoring([Link])
//After selenium 4
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluneWait<WebDriver>(driver)
.withTimeout([Link](10))
.pollingEvery([Link](5)
.ignoring([Link])

23. Window Authentication Popup

We can handle authentication popup with Selenium. To do this, we have to
pass the user credentials within the URL. We shall have to add the username
and password to the URL.
Syntax:
[Link]
[Link]
Here, the admin is the username and password.
URL − [Link]
[Link] of Frame & Iframe
What is Frame & Iframe. Difference between Frame and Iframe.
How to identify the iframe
How do switch over the elements in iframes using Web Driver commands.
How to handle dynamic iframes using Selenium WebDriver.
Concept of Nested (Frames inside Frames)
Methods Provided by Selenium for handling iFrames.
Frame and Iframe:
Frame is a HTML tag that is used to divide the web page into various
frames/windows. Each window can load a separate HTML document.
In HTML,<frame>tag denotes a frame , and all the frames are present in a
<frame>
Tag.
Iframe as <iframe> is also a tag used in HTML but it specifies an inline frame
which means it is used to embed some other document or content from other
sources/external sources within the current HTML document.
How to switch to iframe:
[Link] id or by name
[Link] webelement
[Link] index
Syntax : [Link]().frame()
For switching the main page from frame, we can use defaultContent(); method
.
NOTE: We cannot switching one frame to another frame without main page.
How to find total iframes on web page

What is WebDriverManager ?
Selenium WebDriver is an automation tool widely popular and is useful to run
test against multiple browserts like Google Chrome browser,Firefox
browser,Internet Explore, etc.
We need browser drivers to launch any of these above browser
WebDriverManager in selenium , is a class that allows users to automate the
handling of driver executables like [Link], [Link], etc
required by selenium WebDriver API.
-Automates the management of WebDriver binaries.
-Downloads the appropriate driver,binaries,if not already present,into the
local cache.
-Downloads the latest version of the browser binary, unless otherwise
specified .
-Eliminates the need to store driver binaries locally. We also need not maintain
various version of the binary driver files for different browsers.

29.Log4j2 -Logging Framework

What is Logging:
Logging means some way to indicate the state of the system at runtime. The
log message have to provide the required information to understand what the
application does internally during runtime.
What is Log4j
Log4j logging framework which is written in java. It is an open-source logging
API for java.
Configuration:

[Link] Object Model

What is Page Object Model:
Page Object Model (POM) is design pattern, popularly used in test automation
that creates Object Repository for web UI elements.
Under POM:
Each web page is application.
There is separate class for each web page to identify web elements of that web
page and methods which perform operations on those Web Elements.
POM Implementation
Without Page Factory
-By().method
-findElement()
With Page Factory
-@FindBy annotation
-[Link]()
This initElements method will create all WebElements.

[Link] to Encode Password/Sensitive Data

What is Encoding /Encryption:
Encryption is the process of converting plain text data into an unreadable
format in order to protect unauthorized access.
To secure our passwords/sensitive data we can use Base64 encoding scheme in
Selenium WebDriver.
We will import this Base64 class in our script to decode password/Sensitive
data.

[Link] Browser Testing:
What is A headless Browser
Headless Browser, Means a Web Browser without User Interface. To elaborate,
Headless Browsers are those which actually access the web page , but the
GUI/Screen is hidden from the user.
Advantages of Headless Browser:
1. Headless Browsers are used when the machine has no GUI.
2. These can be used in a case where there is no need to view anything and
our purpose is just to ensure that all tests are getting executed
successfully line by line.
3. When there is a need for executing parallel tests , UI bases browsers
consume a lot of memory and/or resources. Hence, here Headless
browser is preferred to use.
4. When compared to Real Browsers, Headless Browsers are faster. So,
these are chosen for faster execution.
Disadvantages of Headless Browser :
1. As headless browser are very fast, due to its faster page loading ability,
sometimes it is difficult to debug the issues.
2. When tests are to be performed in front of user, where the user con
interact with the team, referring the GUI and discuss where ever
changes or corrections are required. In such case, Headless Browsers
cannot be used and Real browser testing are done as it has GUI.
3. As Headless Browsers don’t represent GUI, it is troublesome to report
errors with the help of screenshots.

Syntax:
After the launch the browser,
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
[Link](true);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

HTMLUnit Diver:
HtmlUnitDriver is headless driver providing non-GUI implementation of
Selenium WevDriver. It is written in Java. This is inbuilt headless browser
if selenium WebDriver.
