Setup Selenium

  • Install the Selenium IDE plugin for Firefox from http://seleniumhq.org/download/ .
  • Create a folder "wicketPathLocatorBuilder" with the file "user-extension.js.wicketPathLocatorBuilder". Paste the following snipped in this file. 
    LocatorBuilders.add('wicketpath', function(e) {
        this.log.debug("wicketpath: e=" + e);
        if (e.attributes && e.hasAttribute("wicketpath")) {
            this.log.info("found attribute " + e.getAttribute("wicketpath"));
            return "//" + this.xpathHtmlElement(e.nodeName.toLowerCase()) +
                "[@wicketpath=" + this.attributeValue(e.getAttribute("wicketpath")) + "]";
        }
        return null;
    });

LocatorBuilders.order.unshift(LocatorBuilders.order.pop());
  • Open the Selenium IDE, go to menu Options -> Options. In the Selenium Core extensions input field, paste the path to the earlier created folder "wicketPathLocatorBuilder".
  •  Restart firefox.

Please check https://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/selenium-tips.html

Setup Servoy

 Because IDebugSettings#setOutputComponentPath(true) functionality need to be used, you need to:

  • setup web client property servoy.webclient.debug.wicketpath to true.
  • Save and restart application server.

Selenium description

Main window description

  • The left part of the main window contains the tree structure that represents the test-suite. The right side displays the details of a selected node. At the bottom of the main window you'll see the terminal output area, which displays stan-dard messages and communications in between your test-suite and the client applica-tion you are testing.
  • The basic structure of a test-suite and thus the child nodes of theTest-suite root node is fixed. An arbitrary number of Test-set, Test-case or Test nodes are followed by the Procedures, Extras and Windows and components nodes. The Procedures node holds Packages and Procedures.

Starting the Application

  • If Selenium is configured, Servoy web client also, then you can run the solution on web client with Firefox browser.
  • When the application is running on browser, then the Selenium can be started using <CTRL + ALT + S> or going to Firefox-> Web Developer-> Selenium IDE.

Recording events

  • Click record button
  • Go to WC, do the actions needed, typing data/ adding records/ delete
  • When done go to selenium and hit "Stop recording" button
  • A sequence is created which can be saved using <CTRL+S>.

Playback - Running the script

  • If only the Setup part of the script is tested, then select Setup node of the tree and hit "Enter"
  • If only a sequence is tested, or multiple by shift-selecting, then select that sequence and hit "Enter"
  • If all the script is tested then select Extras node, and hit "Enter"
  • TIP: for easier following of the test run, add a default delay: go to qf-test->main menu-> edit->options->replay->delays -> default delays add something like 350 in the before and after fields.
