Every tests should undergo WebDriverEventListener for analyzing tests and for better reporting. This post is very Generic and anyone can easily understand the concepts.
Note|
1| There are more to do and customize with the WebDriver EventListeners. Explained below is the most important functions under WebDriver EventListeners.
2| In the given example, make sure all the sections are commented out except one which you are working on. eg., if you working on 'onException' then comment out the other sections
EventFiringWebDriver supports registering of a WebDriverEventListener. Create a test class as shown below.
import org.openqa.selenium.support.events.EventFiringWebDriver;
public class className {
private WebDriver driver;
@BeforeTest
public void setUp() throws Exception {
driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
}
@Test
public void Test01() throws Exception {
EventFiringWebDriver event = new EventFiringWebDriver(driver);
WebDriverListerners eventListener = new WebDriverListerners();
event.register(eventListener);
// beforeNavigateTo & afterNavigateTo
event.get("http://www.google.com");
// beforeNavigateBack & afterNavigateBack
event.get("http://www.google.com");
event.get("http://www.bing.com");
event.navigate().back();
// beforeNavigateForward & afterNavigateForward
event.get("http://www.google.com");
event.get("http://www.bing.com");
event.navigate().back();
event.navigate().forward();
// onException
event.get("http://.........");
event.findElement(By.id("Wrong Value"));
// beforeFindBy & afterFindBy
event.get("http://.........");
event.findElement(By.id("Value"));
// beforeClickOn & afterClickOn
event.get("http://.........");
event.findElement(By.id("Value")).click();
// beforeChangeValueOf & afterChangeValueOf
event.get("http://.........");
event.findElement(By.id("Value")).clear();
event.findElement(By.id("Value")).sendKeys("Seleniumworks");
}
}
AbstractWebDriverEventListener
Use AbstractWebDriverEventListener as a Base class for implementing WebDriverEventListener.
