  • WebDriver is using native automation from each and every supported language for running automation scripts on browsers.
  • WebDriver supports web as well mobile application testing so you can test mobile applications (iPhone or Android).

There are two types of HTML tables published on the web- Static tables : Data is static i.e. Number of rows and columns are fixed. Dynamic tables : Data is dynamic i.e. Number of rows and columns are NOT fixed.Handling static table is easy, but dynamic table is a little bit difficult as rows and columns are not constant. Using X-Path to Locate Web Table Elements Before we locate web element, first let's understands- What is a web element? Web elements are nothing but HTML elements like textbox, dropdowns radio buttons, submit buttons, etc. These HTML elements are written with  start  tag and ends with an  end  tag.

Importance of testng.xml file

In a Selenium TestNG project, we use  testng.xml  file to configure the complete test suite in a single file. Some of the features are as follows. testng.xml file allows to include or exclude the execution of test methods and test groups It allows to pass parameters to the test cases Allows to add group dependencies Allows to add priorities to the test cases Allows to configure parallel execution of test cases Allows to parameterize the test cases 7. How to pass parameter through  testng.xml  file to a test case? We could define the parameters in the  testng.xml  file and then reference those parameters in the source files. Create a java test class, say,  ParameterizedTest. java  and add a test method say  parameterizedTest()  to the test class. This method takes a string as input parameter. Add the annotation @Parameters(“browser”) to this method. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 // ...

Read it out for TESTNG before going for an iterview

How to run a group of test cases using TestNG? TestNG allows you to perform sophisticated groupings of test methods. Not only can you declare that methods belong to groups, but you can also specify groups that contain other groups. Then TestNG can be invoked and asked to include a certain set of groups (or regular expressions) while excluding another set.  This gives you maximum flexibility in how you partition your tests and doesn’t require you to recompile anything if you want to run two different sets of tests back to back. Groups are specified in your testng.xml file and can be found either under the <test> or <suite> tag. Groups specified in the <suite> tag apply to all the <test> tags underneath. @Test (groups = { "smokeTest", "functionalTest" }) public void loginTest(){ System.out.println("Logged in successfully"); }   How to create Group of Groups in TestNG? Groups can also inc...
