Overview ¶
Package selenium provides a client to drive web browser-based automation and testing.
See the example below for how to get started with this API.
This package can depend on several binaries being available, depending on which browsers will be used and how. To avoid needing to manage these dependencies, use a cloud-based browser testing environment, like Sauce Labs, BrowserStack or similar. Otherwise, use the methods provided by this API to specify the paths to the dependencies, which will have to be downloaded separately.
Example ¶
This example shows how to navigate to a http://play.golang.org page, input a short program, run it, and inspect its output.
If you want to actually run this example:
- Ensure the file paths at the top of the function are correct.
- Remove the word "Example" from the comment at the bottom of the function.
- Run: go test -test.run=Example$ github.com/tebeka/selenium
package main import ( "fmt" "os" "strings" "time" "github.com/tebeka/selenium" ) func main() { // Start a Selenium WebDriver server instance (if one is not already // running). const ( // These paths will be different on your system. seleniumPath = "vendor/selenium-server-standalone-3.4.jar" geckoDriverPath = "vendor/geckodriver-v0.18.0-linux64" port = 8080 ) opts := []selenium.ServiceOption{ selenium.StartFrameBuffer(), // Start an X frame buffer for the browser to run in. selenium.GeckoDriver(geckoDriverPath), // Specify the path to GeckoDriver in order to use Firefox. selenium.Output(os.Stderr), // Output debug information to STDERR. } selenium.SetDebug(true) service, err := selenium.NewSeleniumService(seleniumPath, port, opts...) if err != nil { panic(err) // panic is used only as an example and is not otherwise recommended. } defer service.Stop() // Connect to the WebDriver instance running locally. caps := selenium.Capabilities{"browserName": "firefox"} wd, err := selenium.NewRemote(caps, fmt.Sprintf("http://localhost:%d/wd/hub", port)) if err != nil { panic(err) } defer wd.Quit() // Navigate to the simple playground interface. if err := wd.Get("http://play.golang.org/?simple=1"); err != nil { panic(err) } // Get a reference to the text box containing code. elem, err := wd.FindElement(selenium.ByCSSSelector, "#code") if err != nil { panic(err) } // Remove the boilerplate code already in the text box. if err := elem.Clear(); err != nil { panic(err) } // Enter some new code in text box. err = elem.SendKeys(` package main import "fmt" func main() { fmt.Println("Hello WebDriver!\n") } `) if err != nil { panic(err) } // Click the run button. btn, err := wd.FindElement(selenium.ByCSSSelector, "#run") if err != nil { panic(err) } if err := btn.Click(); err != nil { panic(err) } // Wait for the program to finish running and get the output. outputDiv, err := wd.FindElement(selenium.ByCSSSelector, "#output") if err != nil { panic(err) } var output string for { output, err = outputDiv.Text() if err != nil { panic(err) } if output != "Waiting for remote server..." { break } time.Sleep(time.Millisecond * 100) } fmt.Printf("%s", strings.Replace(output, "\n\n", "\n", -1)) // Example Output: // Hello WebDriver! // // Program exited. }
