Selenium Page Objects

Have been reading about page objects in selenium of late and came across a couple of pointers which I wanted to share here -

1. If user action causes ctrl to appear on a different page then that corresponding page object should be returned else same page object should be returned.

2. Test code (Verification/Assertion) should be included in test and should not be part of page Objects them selves

3. Page object need not represent entire page, it may represent part of page which may appear on site multiple times or multiple times on same page.

4. Page Object offers the services represented by that page.

Using chrome console to test xPath and css selectors

Note: If you are new to java and selenium then start with selenium java training videos . Since the advent of selenium there have been many plugin to test xPath / css selectors but you don’t need any of them if you have chrome browser. Using Chrome console you can test both xPath and css selectors. Launch website to be tested in chrome browser and hit F-12 and you would see chrome console opened in lower pane of application - Hit escape key and console would open another pane to write element locators - And now you can start writing xPath or css selectors in chrome console and test them - The syntax for writing css id - $$(“ ”) And hit the enter key.

Working with URL Redirection with VB Scripts

Had chance to work on checking http status VB script. Looks like not all objects work when used URL redirect, so I used "WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1". Set winhttpreq = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1") 'Initialize HTTP Request winhttpreq.Open "Get", "http://iteamic.com/" 'Send HTTP Request winhttpreq.Send() Print winhttpreq.StatusText Print winhttpreq.ResponseText for now iteamic website redirects to ciber and this code works perfect for it.

Distributed Load Testing with JMeter

Distributed Testing with JMeter When one JMeter client is not able to offer amount of threads required for load testing then distributed testing is used. In distributed testing - One instance of JMeter client can control number of JMeter instances and collect data from them Test plan does not need to be copied to each server, the client sends it to all servers note - JMeter will run all the threads on all the servers, hence 100 threads on 5 JMeter server would pump 500 threads in total. If many server instances are used, the client JMeter can become overloaded and so the client network connection. This has been improved in latest versions of JMeter by switching to Stripped modes, but you should always check that your client is not overloaded When Client (master) and Server (slave) nodes are on same network (no SSH required) Configure Client Node Herein client is referred as the machine controlling test execution on other JMeter nodes. This is also referred
