    Study Notes

    Selenium Testing

    • Test cases are written using a tool, but the specific tool is not specified.
    • The parent element for web tables in Selenium is not specified.
    • In XPath, child elements placed to the right of their parent element are siblings.
    • Siblings in XPath are elements that have the same parent element.
    • Predicates in XPath are used to filter elements based on specific conditions.

    XPath

    • Predicates are placed in square brackets [] in XPath.
    • To access the second sibling in XPath, use the index [2].
    • The correct XPath code to access a nested table is //table/tbody/tr/td.
    • The unique attribute used as a predicate in XPath is @id or @name.

    WebDriver

    • The output of the WebDriver code to retrieve the inner text of a cell is the text content of the cell.
    • The purpose of the WebDriver code is to automate web browser interactions.
    • The baseUrl variable is used to store the base URL of the website.
    • The innerText variable is used to store the text content of an element.
    • The driver.quit() method is used to close the browser window.

    Web Tables

    • A web table is a table on a web page, often used to display data.
    • Web tables and their elements can be accessed in Selenium using XPath or CSS selectors.
    • The most reliable method to access elements within HTML tables in Selenium is using XPath.
    • We need to access elements within HTML tables in Selenium when we need to automate interactions with a web table.
    • An example of a web table is a table on a website displaying flight schedules.

    XPath and Selenium

    • XPath is used to handle web tables in Selenium because it allows for flexible and precise element selection.
    • Nested tables can be accessed in Selenium using XPath with the // symbol.
    • The shortcut method for accessing tables in Selenium is using the //table XPath code.
    • The tbody element is used in XPath to specify the table body.

    Java and XPath

    • The symbol @ is used to prefix attributes as predicates in XPath.
    • Attributes are used as predicates in XPath to filter elements based on specific conditions.
    • The escape character \ is used in Java to escape double quotation marks ".

    Testing

    • Integration Testing is a type of testing that involves testing interactions between multiple components.
    • JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is a platform that runs Java code.

    Inspect Element

    • The purpose of using Inspect Element in Selenium is to identify the XPath code for an element.
    • The quickest way to generate XPath code for an element using Inspect Element is by right-clicking on the element and selecting "Inspect" or "Inspect Element".
