Splinter subplugin for Pytest BDD plugin
Project description
Splinter plugin for the py.test runner
Install pytest-splinter
pip install pytest-splinter
Features
The plugin provides many useful fixtures to be used if you’re using splinter for browser testing
Fixtures
- browser
Get the splinter’s Browser. Fixture is underneath session scoped, so browser process is started once per test session.
- splinter_selenium_implicit_wait
Implicit wait timeout to be passed to Selenium webdriver. Fixture gets the value from the command-line option splinter-implicit-wait (see below)
- splinter_selenium_speed
Speed for Selenium, if not 0 then it will sleep between each selenium command. Useful for debugging/demonstration. Fixture gets the value from the command-line option splinter-speed (see below)
- splinter_selenium_socket_timeout
Socket timeout for communication between the webdriver and the browser. Fixture gets the value from the command-line option splinter-socket-timeout (see below)
- splinter_webdriver
Splinter’s webdriver name to use. Fixture gets the value from the command-line option splinter-webdriver (see below)
- splinter_session_scoped_browser
pytest-splinter should use single browser instance per test session. Fixture gets the value from the command-line option splinter-session-scoped-browser (see below)
- splinter_file_download_dir
Directory, to which browser will automatically download the files it will experience during browsing. For example when you click on some download link. By default it’s a temporary directory. Automatic downloading of files is only supported for firefox driver at the moment.
- splinter_download_file_types
Comma-separated list of content types to automatically download. By default it’s the all known system mime types (via mimetypes standard library).
- splinter_browser_load_condition
Browser load condition, python function which should return True. If function returns False, it will be run several times, until timeout below reached.
- splinter_browser_load_timeout
Browser load condition timeout in seconds, after this timeout the exception WaitUntilTimeout will be raised.
- splinter_firefox_profile_preferences
Firefox profile preferences, a dictionary which is passed to selenium webdriver’s profile_preferences
- splinter_driver_kwargs
Webdriver keyword arguments, a dictionary which is passed to selenium webdriver’s constructor (after applying firefox preferences)
- splinter_window_size
Size of the browser window on browser initialization. Tuple in form (<width>, <height>). Default is (1366, 768)
Command-line options
- –splinter-implicit-wait
Selenium webdriver implicit wait. Seconds (default: 1).
- –splinter-speed
selenium webdriver speed (from command to command). Seconds (default: 0).
- –splinter-socket-timeout
Selenium webdriver socket timeout for for communication between the webdriver and the browser. Seconds (default: 120).
- –splinter-webdriver
Webdriver name to use. (default: firefox). Options:
firefox
remote
chrome
phantomjs
For more details, refer to splinter and selenium documentation.
- –splinter-session-scoped-browser
pytest-splinter should use single browser instance per test session. (set by default).
Browser fixture
As mentioned above, browser is a fixture made by creating splinter’s Browser object, but with some overrides.
- visit
Added possibility to wait for condition on each browser visit by having a fixture.
- wait_for_condition
Method copying selenium’s wait_for_condition, with difference that condition is in python, so there you can do whatever you want, and not only execute javascript via browser.evaluate_script.
- status_code
This functionality is removed, so not available. Splinter implements this using additional request from python side, which is in general performance-wise not a good idea. Also normally when you interact with the browser as a user, you don’t need the status code of the page.
Python3 support
Python3 is supported, check if you have recent version of splinter as it was added recently.
Example
test_your_test.py:
def test_some_browser_stuff(browser):
"""Test using real browser."""
url = "http://www.google.com"
browser.visit(url)
browser.fill('q', 'splinter - python acceptance testing for web applications')
# Find and click the 'search' button
button = browser.find_by_name('btnK')
# Interact with elements
button.click()
assert browser.is_text_present('splinter.cobrateam.info'), 'splinter.cobrateam.info wasn't found... We need to'
