visual-grid-client

A library that drives the visual grid with dom snapshot rendering.

Installing

npm install @applitools/visual-grid-client

Using the package

const {makeVisualGridClient} = require('@applitools/visual-grid-client')

See below for the full API.

API

makeVisualGridClient

  • To create a visualGridClient, call makeVisualGridClient:
const {makeVisualGridClient} = require('@applitools/visual-grid-client')
const visualGridClient = makeVisualGridClient()

The visualGridClient, returned by makeVisualGridClient, is an object with the following functions:

  • openEyes(configOverride): to start a set of tests, where each step is a set of renderings according to the browser stuff in the configuration. This function will return an object with functions (see below) allowing you to create renderings (or "steps" in Applitools parlance) for the test.

  • testWindow({openParams, checkParams, throwEx})

  • closeBatch()

openEyes

Async function openEyes will create a test. Actually, it will create a series of tests, one for each browser configuration defined in the browser property of the configuration.

  • openEyes accepts a configuration object that will override the default configuration found by makeVisualGridClient, per this test.

  • Accepts:

    • proxy - string or object, examples:

      https://username:password@myproxy

      {url: 'https://myproxy', username: 'my_user', password: 'my_password', isHttpOnly: false

    • more params TBD..

  • Returns a promise to an object with the following functions:

    • checkWindow(...): creates a "step" that checks the window according to the baseline. Note that this function will not fail, and you need to await the promises returned from close() to wait for the failure or success of a batch of steps in the test.
    • close(): async closes the test (or series of tests) created by openEyes.
    • abort(): if you want to abort this test (or series of tests). Async.

checkWindow(...)

checkWindow receives an object with the following parameters:

  • tag: the name of the step, as seen in Applitools Eyes.
  • url: the URL appearing in the address bar of the browser. All relative URLs in the CDT will be relative to it.
  • snapshots: either single dom snapshot or an array corresponding to the browser array sent in openEyes. The DOM snapshot can have these properties:
    • cdt: the HTML and set and resources, in the x-applitools-html/cdt format (see below). you can use domNodesToCdt to create a CDT from a document.
    • resourceUrls: By default, an empty array. Additional resource URLs not found in the CDT.
    • resourceContents: a map of all resource values (buffers). The keys are URLs (relative to the url property).
    • frames: same structure of snapshot, recursively.
  • target: the target of the rendering. Can be one of window, region
  • fully: set when target is window, if fully is true then snapshot is full page, if fully is false then snapshot is viewport.
  • selector: if the target is region, this is the selector we are targeting.
  • region: if the target is region, this is the region we are targeting. This is an object with x, y, width, height properties.
  • ignore: TBD
  • floating: TBD
  • accessibility: TBD
  • strict: TBD
  • layout: TBD
  • content: TBD
  • sendDom: TBD
  • scriptHooks: a set of scripts to be run by the browser during the rendering. An object with the following properties:
    • beforeCaptureScreenshot: a script that runs after the page is loaded but before taking the screenshot. The value is an object with the following properties:
    • url: yes, again.
    • type: the content type of the resource.
    • value: a Buffer of the resource content.
  • matchLevel: The method to use when comparing two screenshots, which expresses the extent to which the two images are expected to match.
  • accessibilitySettings: The accessibility to use for the screenshots. Possible values are 'AA' and 'AAA'. // TODO
  • batchNotify.

close()

close receives throwEx parameters, and returns a promise.

  • If throwEx = true (default) :
    • If all tests defined in the openEyes pass then the promise is resolved with Array<TestResults>.
    • If there are differences found in some tests defined in openEyes then the promise is rejected with Array<TestResults>.
    • If there are any unexpected errors like a network error then the promise is rejected with Array<Error|TestResults>.
  • If throwEx = false :
    • The promise is always resolved with Array<TestResults|Error>.

The CDT format

{
  domNodes: [
    {
      nodeType: number, // like in the DOM Standard
      nodeName: ... , // for elements and DocumentType
      nodeValue: ..., // for text nodes
      attributes: [{name, value}, ...],
      childNodeIndexes: [index, index, ...]
    },
    //...
  ],
  resources: [
    {
      hashFormat: 'sha256', // currently the only hash format allowed
      hash: '....', // the hash of the resource.
      contentType: '...', // the mime type of the resource.
    },
    //...
  ]
}

domNodesToCdt

Accepts a document object conforming to the DOM specification (browser document is fine, as is the JSDOM document). Returns a cdt, ready to be passed to checkWindow

Configuration

  • See Eyes Cypress configuration for a list of properties in the configuration and to understand how the visual grid client reads the configuration.

Example

Example Mocha test that uses the visual grid client:

const path = require('path')
const fs = require('fs')
const {makeVisualGridClient} = require('@applitools/visual-grid-client')
const {getProcessPageAndSerialize} = require('@applitools/dom-snapshot')
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer')

describe('visual-grid-client test', function() {
  let visualGridClient
  let closePromises = []
  let processPageAndSerialize
  let browser
  let page

  before(async () => {
    browser = await puppeteer.launch()
    page = await browser.newPage()

    visualGridClient = makeVisualGridClient({
      showLogs: true,
    })

    processPageAndSerialize = `(${await getProcessPageAndSerializeScript()})()`
  })

  after(async () => {
    await browser.close()
    const results = await Promise.all(closePromises)
    await visualGridClient.closeBatch() // after all sessions ended (session = open checkWindow close)
    return results;
  })

  let checkWindow, close
  beforeEach(async () => {
    ;({checkWindow, close} = await visualGridClient.openEyes({
      appName: 'visual grid client with a cat',
      testName: 'visual-grid-client test',
    }))
  })
  afterEach(() => closePromises.push(close()))

  it('should work', async () => {
    await page.goto('index.html')
    const {cdt, url, resourceUrls, blobs, frames} = await page.evaluate(processPageAndSerialize)
    const resourceContents = blobs.map(({url, type, value}) => ({
      url,
      type,
      value: Buffer.from(value, 'base64'),
    }));
    checkWindow({
      tag: 'first test',
      target: 'region',
      fully: false,
      url,
      snapshots: {
        cdt,
        resourceUrls,
        resourceContents,
        frames,
      }
    })
  })
})

Example testWindow()

const {makeVisualGridClient} = require('@applitools/visual-grid-client')
const {getProcessPageAndSerialize} = require('@applitools/dom-snapshot')
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer')

describe('visual-grid-client test', function() {
  let visualGridClient
  let closePromises = []
  let processPageAndSerialize
  let browser
  let page

  before(async () => {
    browser = await puppeteer.launch()
    page = await browser.newPage()

    visualGridClient = makeVisualGridClient({
      showLogs: true,
    })

    processPageAndSerialize = `(${await getProcessPageAndSerializeScript()})()`
  })

  after(async () => {
    await browser.close()
    const results = await Promise.all(closePromises)
  })

  it('should work', async () => {
    await page.goto('index.html')
    const {cdt, url, resourceUrls, blobs, frames} = await page.evaluate(processPageAndSerialize)
    const resourceContents = blobs.map(({url, type, value}) => ({
      url,
      type,
      value: Buffer.from(value, 'base64'),
    }));

    const checkParams = {
      tag: 'first test',
      target: 'region',
      fully: false,
      url,
      snapshots: {
        cdt,
        resourceUrls,
        resourceContents,
        frames,
      }
    };

    const openParams = {
      appName: 'visual grid client with a cat',
      testName: 'visual-grid-client test',
    }

    const results = await testWindow({checkParams, openParams, throwEx: false})
  })
})
