I have been offered a Ferrari

Not for real :) I had a fun conversation with a recruiter on LinkedIn and jotting it down here. I have masked/removed the sensitive data -

Hi Tarun, I lead the Tech division in XYZ - I'm pretty active in the XYZ tech scene so I wanted to introduce myself. Out of curiosity, how are things going in XYZ? Could a new job get your attention somehow...? (For example, a free Ferrari) I can't promise a new Ferrari (maybe a Porsche?) but I would like to know what will grab your attention (such as more responsibility or a salary increase). Then, I can keep your goals in mind and tell you about relevant opportunities. How does that sound? If now isn't the right time to move that's also okay. I'd still like to chat to you so that when you are ready, we've already gotten the introductions out of the way. :) Look forward to hearing from you!
 Hi XYZ, Finally some one recognized that I deserve a Ferrari :) Things are great at XYZ. We keep growing each year which also means more responsibility. Money does matter though only to a limit and after that it may matter only if it can buy a Ferrari :) Dynamic nature of IT may require XYZ XYZ XYZ. Thanks Tarun K

How can you save resources when instantiaing driver?

I asked on my previous post about what was wrong in instantiating driver on set up method? And here is the solution video on my YouTube channel (After 5 years of gap I finally added new video tutorial :)) The solution described on video tutorial uses following set up - public class BaseClassOnDemandDriverSetup { private WebDriver driver ; @BeforeMethod public void setupTest () { // Any other set up goes here } @AfterMethod public void teardown () { if ( driver != null ) { driver .quit() ; } } public WebDriver getDriver () { if ( driver == null ) { WebDriverManager. chromedriver ().setup() ; driver = new ChromeDriver() ; } return driver ; } }

Using chrome console to test xPath and css selectors

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.
