web-automate

web-automate is a browser automation library. Used for testing

web applications with selenium. web-automate provides you to use some selenium functionality in a easy way. By using web-automate you can do fast and clean code at some level.

Installation

web-automate may be installed via npm with

npm install web-automate

To use web-automate you don't need to download additional resources. You will only need the selenium-webdriver and drivers for Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft's IE and Edge web

browsers are all standalone executables that should be placed on your system

| Browser | Component | | ----------------- | -------------------------------- | | Chrome | chromedriver(.exe) | | Internet Explorer | IEDriverServer.exe | | Edge | MicrosoftWebDriver.msi | | Firefox | geckodriver(.exe) | | Safari | safaridriver |

Usage

The sample below and others are included in the example directory. You may

also find the web-driver informative by using selenium-webdriver.

const { Builder } = require("selenium-webdriver");
const { findElement, closeBrowser, navigateTo } = require("web-automate");
(async function example() {
  let driver = await new Builder().forBrowser("chromes").build();
  try {
    await navigateTo(driver, "http://www.google.com/ncr");
    const webElement = await findElement(driver, { name: "q" });
    webElement.sendKeys("Hello World");
  } finally {
    await closeBrowser(driver);
  }
})();

Use with binder Api

By using the binder api in web-automate you do not have to use driver again and again. Pass the driver as argument to binder api once and use all the web-automate api. You can also use the other api's without binder api by above way. See the documentation to use the binder api.

const { Builder } = require("selenium-webdriver");

const { binder } = require("web-automate");
const { findElement, closeBrowser, navigateTo } = binder(driver);
(async function example() {
  let driver = await new Builder().forBrowser("chromes").build();

  try {
    await navigateTo("http://www.google.com/ncr");

    const webElement = await findElement({ name: "q" });

    webElement.sendKeys("Hello World");
  } finally {
    await closeBrowser();
  }
})();
