Handling untrusted SSL certificates using selenium webdriver in IE?

Some time we get these SSL errors or notification when we try to execute our scripts,At that time we need to by pass that one

SSL error in IE In the following way..

To By pass it just need to add a small piece of code when ever it occurs.

i.e

try {
                driver.get("javascript:document.getElementById('overridelink').click();");
            } catch (Exception e) {
            }

Generate Interactive reports Using TestNG+ANT +XSLT In Selenium

XSLT stands for XML (Extensible Markup Language) Stylesheet Language for Transformations.
XSLT gives interactive(user friendly) reports with "Pie Chart"; but only on TestNG framework. It is better compared to ReportNG and ordinary TestNG reports. Its uses the pure XSL for report generation and Saxon as an XSL2.0 implementation.

XSLT = XSL Transformations

Steps to Generate testng-xslt report:

1. Download testmg-xslt.zip
2. Unzip and copy the testng-results.xsl from the testng-xslt folder(testng-xslt-1.1\src\main\resources) to your own project folder.
3. Now copy the saxon library from (testng-xslt-1.1\lib\saxon-8.7.jar)to your project lib folder.
4. Modify your build.xml of ant and add the following target to it.

                    </classpath>
                </xslt>
            </target>
   
</project>

5. Create TestNG.xml file in your project with the following script for TestNG execution.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<suite name="Suite" parallel="false">

  <test name="Test">

    <classes>

      <class name="package.classname"/>

    </classes>

  </test> <!-- Test -->

</suite> <!-- Suite -->

6. Now, try to run the command.

Navigate to Project Location from command prompt  

ant testng-xslt-report

Results will be look like this:

5. Which object repository we use in real time and can we merge 2 object repostiory and

how? 

as said there r 2 types of object repository i.e.

1) per action

can add multiple actions which

is also considered together as a script

Different ways to refresh the WebPage in selenium WebDriver

 5 different ways, using which we can refresh a webpage.There might be even more :)

There is no special extra coding. I have just used the existing functions in different ways to get it work. Here they are
  
1.Using sendKeys.Keys method

driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp"); 
driver.findElement(By.id("firstname-placeholder")).sendKeys(Keys.F5);

 2.Using navigate.refresh()  method


  driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp");   
driver.navigate().refresh(); 


3.Using navigate.to() method
 
driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp");   
driver.navigate().to(driver.getCurrentUrl()); 


4.Using get() method
 
driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp");   
driver.get(driver.getCurrentUrl()); 

5.Using sendKeys() method

driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp");  
driver.findElement(By.id("firstname-placeholder")).sendKeys("\uE035"); 

 

Selecting a date from Datepicker in Selnium WebDriver

If we look at the Datepicker, it is just a like a table with set of rows and columns.To select a date ,we just have to navigate to the cell where our desired date is present.

Here is a sample code on how to pick a 13th date from the next month.

import java.util.List;
 import java.util.List;
 import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
 import org.openqa.selenium.By;
 import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
 import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;;

public class DatePicker {

 WebDriver driver;
 
 @BeforeTest
 public void start(){
 System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.bin", "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe");  
 driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 }
 
 @Test
 public void Test(){
 
  driver.get("http://jqueryui.com/datepicker/");
  driver.switchTo().frame(0);
  driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
  //Click on textbox so that datepicker will come
  driver.findElement(By.id("datepicker")).click();
  driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
  //Click on next so that we will be in next month
  driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='ui-datepicker-div']/div/a[2]/span")).click();
  
  /*DatePicker is a table.So navigate to each cell 
   * If a particular cell matches value 13 then select it
   */
  WebElement dateWidget = driver.findElement(By.id("ui-datepicker-div"));
  List<webelement> rows=dateWidget.findElements(By.tagName("tr"));
  List<webelement> columns=dateWidget.findElements(By.tagName("td"));
  
  for (WebElement cell: columns){
   //Select 13th Date 
   if (cell.getText().equals("13")){
   cell.findElement(By.linkText("13")).click();
   break;
   }
  } 
 }

Selenium Sampleinterview Questions

1. In your experience, what are some of the challenges with Selenium?

Some Challenges:

The use of the locators need to be carefully thought through.

Handling Dynamic Elements

Handling Ajax Call Element

Handling Http's URL's

2.What is the difference between an assert and a verify with Selenium commands?

Assert: Will fail and abort the current test execution.
Verify: Will fail and continue to run the test execution.

3.How many testing frameworks can QA Tester use in Selenium RC?

Testing frameworks aren’t required, but they can be helpful if QA Tester wants to automate test cases. Selenium RC supports Bromine, JUnit, NUnit, RSpec (Ruby), Test::Unit (Ruby), TestNG (Java), unittest (Python).

4.Does Selenium support mobile internet testing?

Selenium supports Opera and opera is used in most of the Smart phones. So whichever Smart phone supports opera, selenium can be used to test. So, one can use Selenium RC to run the tests on mobiles

5. What are the basic annotations used to run TestNG tests in Selenium?

The basic annotations used to run TestNG tests in Selenium RC:
1. @BeforeClass: The annotated method with @BeforeClass will be run before the first test method in the current class is invoked.
2. @AfterClass: The annotated method with @AfterClass will be run after all the test methods in the current class have been run.
3. @BeforeMethod: The annotated method with @BeforeMethod will be run before each test method.
4. @AfterMethod: The annotated method with @AfterMethod will be run after each test method.
5. @Test: Marks a class or a method @Test with as part of the test.

6.What is the difference between Thread.Sleep() and Selenium.setSpeed()

Selenium.setSpeed:
1. takes a single argument in string format
ex: selenium.setSpeed(“2000″) – will wait for 2 seconds
2. Runs each command in after setSpeed delay by the number of milliseconds mentioned in setSpeed.

Thread.sleep:
1. takes a single argument in integer format
ex: thread.sleep(2000) – will wait for 2 seconds
2. Waits for only once at the command given at sleep.

7.  How to configure Selenium RC with eclipse to run Junit Tests?

1. Download eclipse. click here to download the software
   2) Open eclipse -> Workspace Launcher window will open
   3) Create a workspace by giving meaningful name
   3) Click on Workbench
   4) Create a project of type java
   5) Create a package under src folder of the package
   6) Add Junit to the build path
   7) Add selenium rc java client driver to the build path
   8) Now drag and drop your test script (.which is exported from Selenium IDE) to the package created.

8.Which browsers does WebDriver support?

The existing drivers are the ChromeDriver, InternetExplorerDriver, FirefoxDriver, OperaDriver and HtmlUnitDriver. For more information about each of these, including their relative strengths and weaknesses, please follow the links to the relevant pages. There is also support for mobile testing via the AndroidDriver and IPhoneDriver.

9.What is Web Driver?

Web Driver uses a different underlying framework from Selenium’s javascript Selenium-Core. It also provides an alternative API with functionality not supported in Selenium-RC. WebDriver does not depend on a JavaScript core embedded within the browser; therefore it is able to avoid some long-running Selenium limitations.
WebDriver’s goal is to provide an API that establishes
A well-designed standard programming interface for web-app testing.
• Improved consistency between browsers.

11.Wht does SIDE Stands for
ans:Selenium IDE
12.What Programming Languages is best for writing the Selenium Tests
13.Compare QTP vs Selenium
14.Can tests recorded using Selenium IDE be run in other browsers?
