This document describes a Webdriver Enhanced Platform for Automation (WEPA) framework for automating web application testing using Selenium. It discusses why a framework is useful for standardizing test artifacts, scripts, and classes to make tests reusable across projects, easy to maintain and extend. The framework uses Selenium scripts in Perl, a database to store test data and results, and a grid to run tests in parallel on multiple browsers and machines. It provides layers for test execution, functional actions on the application under test, and system services like the database. Configuration files are used to specify test browsers, platforms, and data.

- 2. SUMMARY FRAMEWORK? WHY? WHAT TO INCLUDE HOW IT WORKS HOW TO SCALE IT
- 3. WHY USE A FRAMEWORK STANDARD NOMENCLATURE TEST ARTIFACTS (SCREENSHOTS, LOG FILES) TEST SCRIPTS TEST CLASSES REUSABILITY (SAME FRAMEWORK DIFF PROJECTS) EASY TO MAINTAIN EASY TO EXTEND EASY TO UNDERSTAND
- 4. SYSTEM COMPONENTS 1. TEST SCRIPTS (SELENIUM) 2. AUT DRIVER (SELENIUM SERVER) 3. PERL 4. DATABASE
- 5. SYSTEM DIAGRAM & WORKFLOW
- 6. TEST SCRIPTS Coded in Perl Cross platform Use page objects Based on a standard template
- 7. TEST SCRIPT TEMPLATE PLATFORM LOOP BROWSER LOOP TEST DATA LOOP SETUP TEST RUN TEST CLEANUP TEST
- 8. THE GRID Java (jar file) Selenium Stand Alone Server Can be launched in two modes / roles Hub Node Adds the capability to run tests in Parallel GRID1
- 9. AUTOMATION DB MySQL Test Data Form Field Data HTML Element Object Map Test Pages (URLs) Keyword / Actions Test Artifacts Test Runs Results (pass/fail) Screenshots
- 10. SYSTEM COMPONENTS BLOCK DIAGRAM
- 11. TEST EXECUTION LAYER FACES THE USER (SCRIPT PROGRAMMER) COMMUNICATES WITH FUNCTIONAL LAYER VIA EXPOSED METHODS (ACTIONS): LOAD_TEST_DATA LOGIN_AS ADD_ITEM EDIT_ITEM DETERMINES PASS / FAIL STATUS TEST.PL
- 12. Only layer that speaks AUT language Drives the AUT (by executing actions) All actions to be performed on AUT are defined here Utilizes System Layer as needed Returns 1 or 0 to Test Execution layer 1 = success 0 = unsuccessful WepaApp.pm ShoppingCart.pm SettingsModule.pm FUNCTIONAL LAYER
- 13. Interface with anything that is not AUT Provides Services for the other layers DB access Write and Parse Log Files Test results processing WepaSubs.pm SYSTEM LAYER
- 14. TEST BREAKDOWN ONE WEPA<AREANAME>.PM FOR EACH APPLICATION FUNCTIONAL AREA INHERITS BASE ACTIONS FROM WEPAAPP.PM (THE FUNCTIONAL LAYERS MAIN CLASS)
- 15. TEST CONFIGURATION INI type configuration files Test Browsers (FFX, CHR, IE, SFR) Test Platforms (Win7, Win8, MAC) Test Information Test Data Configuration File is loaded when the test runs
- 16. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS WebDriver itself does not have any system requirements Requirements will depend on numerous factors: Total number of tests Number of physical machines (PCs) Complexity of the tests Type of test (end-to-end, regression) 12 Browsers per WebDriver node (VM) 2 GB RAM ~1.5 2GHz Processor General Guideline
- 17. VIRTUALIZED EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT 6 VIRTUAL MACHINES 11 BROWSERS / VM CAPABILITY TO RUN 46 CONCURRENT TESTS x5 x5 x5 x5 x5 x5 x5 x5 x1 x1 x1 x1 x1 x1 20 20 6 Total Browsers Per VM 11 11 11 11 1 1 46
