selenium-page-factory

Python library provides page factory approach to implement page object model in selenium

Introduction

• A Page Factory is one way of implementing a Page Object Model. In order to support the Page Object pattern.
• As in Java we are using @findBy, here we are declaring all web element in dictionary. Dictionary keys become WebElement / class member variable with having all extended WebElement methods.

Main Features

• Initialise all the webElements declared in Point at a time.
• All WebElements methods are re-define to add extra features eg- click method extended to have explicit wait for element to be clickable.
• Cent percent unittest coverage.
• Supports Selenium 4 ActionChains methods
• Now Support Appium for mobile testing
• Raised custom Page factory exceptions

Installation

  pip install selenium-page-factory

Pre-Requisite

Every Page in Page Object Model should have WebDriver object as class member as shown below

class PageClass(PageFactory):

    def __init__(self,driver):
        self.driver = driver        # Required
        self.timeout = 15      	    #(Optional - Customise your explicit wait for every webElement)
        self.highlight = True 	    #(Optional - To highlight every webElement in PageClass)
	self.mobile_test = False    #(Optional - Added for Appium support)

Extended WebElements Methods

Note: Every WebElement will be created after verifying it's Presence and visibility on Page at Run-Time.
