Page objects with extended Selenium2Library

[gaurav517]

You use following to share instance of selenium2library: BuiltIn().get_library_instance("Selenium2Library")

Now in my case, I extend Selenium2Library to MySelenium2Library class in python.. with some additional functions in MySelenium2Library class. Is it possible to share the instance of MySelenium2Library?

Any clue how we can achieve page objects with custom: MySelenium2Library. Thanks a lot.

Sure, I could consider adding a configuration option to let you define which selenium library to choose from, though I'm not convinced it's necessary. You can just create your own base class that inherits from PageObject, but redefines the se2lib property to be whatever you want.

@boakley - I'd like to use ExtendedSelenium2Library instead of Selenium2Library. I tried your suggestion to create my own base class that redefines se2lib, but I just cannot get that to work. I'm new to python, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Could you provide a concrete example of how to do this?

It should be something as simple as this, though I haven't tested it and likely won't have time for several days:

class CustomPageObject(PageObject): @property def se2lib(self): return BuiltIn().get_library_instance("ExtendedSelenium2Library")

Then, just have your page objects inherit from CustomPageObject rather than PageObject
