Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

v1.0.2

Advance standalone wrapper for Selenium-Webdriver.

Readme

Octo

A standalone wrapper for Selenium webdriver that provides extra utility actions for the driver.

Installing

npm install octo-driver --save-dev

Features

  • Retry handling at the command level.
  • Types with Typescript.
  • Signaling across browsers.
  • Async/Await.

Pre-requisites

It's important to know that Octo ONLY wraps the WebDriver instance portion of selenium-webdriver. This makes it so you can easily plug into any existing test runner or builder of your choosing.

import Octo from 'octo-driver';

function build(): WebDriver {
  const build = new selenium.Builder();
  return build.forBrowser('chrome').build();
}

const driver = new Octo(build());

Example

Extending a Page Object.

import { WebDriver } from 'selenium-webdriver';
import Octo from 'octo-driver';
import env from '../env';

export class BasePage extends Octo {
  public baseURL = env.urls.homepage;
  public sitemap = {
    home: '/',
  };
  public DOM = {
    wrapper: 'body'
  };
  constructor(private driver: WebDriver) {
    super(driver);
  }

  public async load(page: string = this.sitemap.home): Promise<void> {
    await super.go(`${this.baseURL}${page}`);
    await super.waitForDisplayed(this.DOM.wrapper);
    return;
  }

}

Why Octo?

This project was heavily inspired from a blog post written by Uber called Rescued by Octopus. In this post they demonstrated the complex user scenarios and inner device communication that their test have to complete in order the confirm end-to-end app functionality. The name was taken from the project at Uber and made to solve similar issues using NodeJS while also adding extra utility.
