webtest

Run Web Page Test In Plain English

Principle

1. Web browser test in plain English

   Not Javascript nor other language

2. Test visible sections.

   Not variable, attributes, nor properties

Goal

The web browser test script should be like this;

open browser '/login'
enter text 'John' into 'username'
submit
close browser

Instead of;

var webdriver = require('selenium-webdriver'),
    until = webdriver.until;

var driver = new webdriver.Builder().forBrowser('chrome').build();

driver.get('/login');
driver.findElement({css:'input[placeholder="username"'})
  .then(function(element) {
    element.sendKeys('John');
  })
});

... even more javascript here ...

driver.quit();
