Tutorial 18 – Integrate Cucumber with Selenium – Part 5
What you will Learn :
LoginPageSteps.java step definition file
LoginPageSteps.java step definition file
We will next go to our step definition file LoginPageSteps.java and call all our methods of LoginPage.java that we had written in previous tutorial.
So to that, let us create an object of LoginPage class, see below
Let us import LoginPage class
Notice below that we still have one error because we have not yet defined the LoginPage() constructor
Recall below that we had defined a constructor for LoginPage.java
Now the question is, from where will we get this driver from?
We will get the driver from our getDriver() method that we had created in DriverFactory.java, see below
So let us call DriverFactory.getDriver() method in the LoginPage constructor
So at runtime, whatever driver instance is going on, the getDriver() method will give us that particular driver (thread local concept that we have already studied in previous tutorials)
Please remember that, during runtime, ApplicationHooks.java gets executed before LoginPageSteps.java. In the hooks file, the driver is getting initialized
Once initialized, we get the same driver in LoginPageSteps.java. So getDriver() method is used to get the driver at the runtime and ‘set’ methods are used to set the chromebrowser/firefox browser etc
Now you will be able to relate things better.
So, coming back to our LoginPageSteps.java
Let us first launch the url
Our url is http://automationpractice.com/index.php?controller=authentication&back=my-account
So let us write same over here
Now using the loginPage reference, we can call all the methods of LoginPage class
So, we will get the page title when the user is on login page
This method returns us a String, so we will catch this title in a variable and also print the title
We will now write a junit assertion to assert whether the expected page title matches actual page title. First of all, import org.junit.Assert
In the method argument (see below), let us change ‘string’ to ‘expectedPageTitle’
Next we will write assertion
Next, we will call the ‘contains’ method on pageTitle
We can now pass the same ‘expectedPageTitle’ inside the contains() method
Remember that in our LoginPage.feature file, the expected page title is mentioned ‘Login - My Store’
Now if you notice below, there is an error on line#27 because pageTitle variable is defined in the previous method (line 21)
To resolve this error, let us define pageTitle variable at class level, see below. the same variable is now used at line#22, 28
Save the file.
Next, we would look at ‘forgot your password link’ method. We can simply call the method that we had created in LoginPage class
Now, this method returns boolean (True/false) as seen below
So we will directly write an assettion over here. So, if the method ‘isForgotpwdLinkPresent’ returns ‘True’, the test will pass, otherwise it will fail
We will next take up method to enter username
Let us first change ‘string’ to ‘username’
We can now call the method
Similarly we can enter password
Next we have
We will continue in our next tutorial.
Thank you for reading!
