title AngularJS - Codeception - Documentation

AngularJS

Module for AngularJS testing, based on WebDriver module and Protractor.

Performs synchronization to ensure that page content is fully rendered. Uses Angular's and Protractor internals methods to synchronize with the page.

Configurarion

The same as for WebDriver, but few new options added:

  • el - element where Angular application is defined (default: body)
  • script_timeout - for how long in seconds to wait for angular operations to finish (default: 5)

Example (acceptance.suite.yml)

modules:
   enabled:
      - AngularJS:
         url: 'http://localhost/'
         browser: firefox
         script_timeout: 10

Additional Features

Can perform matching elements by model. In this case you should provide a strict locator with model set.

Example:

{% highlight php %}

$I->selectOption(['model' => 'customerId'], '3');

{% endhighlight %}

Actions

_findElements

hidden API method, expected to be used from Helper classes

Locates element using available Codeception locator types:

  • XPath
  • CSS
  • Strict Locator

Use it in Helpers or GroupObject or Extension classes:

{% highlight php %}

getModule('AngularJS')->_findElements('.items'); $els = $this->getModule('AngularJS')->_findElements(['name' => 'username']); $editLinks = $this->getModule('AngularJS')->_findElements(['link' => 'Edit']); // now you can iterate over $editLinks and check that all them have valid hrefs {% endhighlight %} WebDriver module returns `Facebook\WebDriver\Remote\RemoteWebElement` instances PhpBrowser and Framework modules return `Symfony\Component\DomCrawler\Crawler` instances * `param` $locator * `return` array of interactive elements #### _getCurrentUri *hidden API method, expected to be used from Helper classes* Uri of currently opened page. * `return` string * `throws` ModuleException #### _getUrl *hidden API method, expected to be used from Helper classes* Returns URL of a host. * `throws` ModuleConfigException #### _savePageSource *hidden API method, expected to be used from Helper classes* Saves HTML source of a page to a file * `param` $filename #### _saveScreenshot *hidden API method, expected to be used from Helper classes* Saves screenshot of current page to a file {% highlight php %} $this->getModule('AngularJS')->_saveScreenshot(codecept_output_dir().'screenshot_1.png'); {% endhighlight %} * `param` $filename #### acceptPopup Accepts the active JavaScript native popup window, as created by `window.alert`|`window.confirm`|`window.prompt`. Don't confuse popups with modal windows, as created by [various libraries](http://jster.net/category/windows-modals-popups). #### amInsideAngularApp Enables Angular mode (enabled by default). Waits for Angular to finish rendering after each action. #### amOnPage Opens the page for the given relative URI. {% highlight php %} amOnPage('/'); // opens /register page $I->amOnPage('/register'); {% endhighlight %} * `param` $page #### amOnSubdomain Changes the subdomain for the 'url' configuration parameter. Does not open a page; use `amOnPage` for that. {% highlight php %} amOnSubdomain('user'); $I->amOnPage('/'); // moves to http://user.mysite.com/ ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $subdomain

amOnUrl

Open web page at the given absolute URL and sets its hostname as the base host.

{% highlight php %}

amOnUrl('http://codeception.com'); $I->amOnPage('/quickstart'); // moves to http://codeception.com/quickstart ?>

{% endhighlight %}

amOutsideAngularApp

Disabled Angular mode.

Falls back to original WebDriver, in case web page does not contain Angular app.

appendField

Append the given text to the given element. Can also add a selection to a select box.

{% highlight php %}

appendField('#mySelectbox', 'SelectValue'); $I->appendField('#myTextField', 'appended'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param string $field
  • param string $value
  • throws \Codeception\Exception\ElementNotFound

attachFile

Attaches a file relative to the Codeception data directory to the given file upload field.

{% highlight php %}

attachFile('input[ * `type="file"]',` 'prices.xls'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $field
  • param $filename

cancelPopup

Dismisses the active JavaScript popup, as created by window.alert|window.confirm|window.prompt.

checkOption

Ticks a checkbox. For radio buttons, use the selectOption method instead.

{% highlight php %}

checkOption('#agree'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $option

click

Perform a click on a link or a button, given by a locator. If a fuzzy locator is given, the page will be searched for a button, link, or image matching the locator string. For buttons, the "value" attribute, "name" attribute, and inner text are searched. For links, the link text is searched. For images, the "alt" attribute and inner text of any parent links are searched.

The second parameter is a context (CSS or XPath locator) to narrow the search.

Note that if the locator matches a button of type submit, the form will be submitted.

{% highlight php %}

click('Logout'); // button of form $I->click('Submit'); // CSS button $I->click('#form input[type=submit]'); // XPath $I->click('//form/*[ * `type=submit]');` // link in context $I->click('Logout', '#nav'); // using strict locator $I->click(['link' => 'Login']); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $link
  • param $context

clickWithRightButton

Performs contextual click with the right mouse button on an element.

  • param $cssOrXPath
  • throws \Codeception\Exception\ElementNotFound

dontSee('Login'); // I can suppose user is already logged in $I->dontSee('Sign Up','h1'); // I can suppose it's not a signup page $I->dontSee('Sign Up','//body/h1'); // with XPath {% endhighlight %} Note that the search is done after stripping all HTML tags from the body, so `$I->dontSee('strong')` will fail on strings like: - `

I am Stronger than thou

` - `<script>document.createElement('strong');</script>` But will ignore strings like: - `Home` - `
Home` - `` For checking the raw source code, use `seeInSource()`. * `param` $text * `param null` $selector #### dontSeeCheckboxIsChecked Check that the specified checkbox is unchecked. {% highlight php %} dontSeeCheckboxIsChecked('#agree'); // I suppose user didn't agree to terms $I->seeCheckboxIsChecked('#signup_form input[type=checkbox]'); // I suppose user didn't check the first checkbox in form. ?>

For multi-select elements, or to check values of multiple elements with the same name, an array may be passed:

{% highlight php %}

seeInFormFields('.form-class', [ 'multiselect' => [ 'value1', 'value2', ], 'checkbox[]' => [ 'a checked value', 'another checked value', ], ]); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Additionally, checkbox values can be checked with a boolean.

{% highlight php %}

seeInFormFields('#form-id', [ 'checkbox1' => true, // passes if checked 'checkbox2' => false, // passes if unchecked ]); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Pair this with submitForm for quick testing magic.

Checks that the given option is selected.

{% highlight php %}

seeOptionIsSelected('#form input[name=payment]', 'Visa'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $selector
  • param $optionText

selectOption

Selects an option in a select tag or in radio button group.

{% highlight php %}

selectOption('form select[name=account]', 'Premium'); $I->selectOption('form input[name=payment]', 'Monthly'); $I->selectOption('//form/select[ * `name=account]',` 'Monthly'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Provide an array for the second argument to select multiple options:

{% highlight php %}

selectOption('Which OS do you use?', array('Windows','Linux')); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Or provide an associative array for the second argument to specifically define which selection method should be used:

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $select
  • param $option

setCookie

Sets a cookie with the given name and value. You can set additional cookie params like domain, path, expires, secure in array passed as last argument.

{% highlight php %}

setCookie('PHPSESSID', 'el4ukv0kqbvoirg7nkp4dncpk3'); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $name
  • param $val
  • param array $params

submitForm

Submits the given form on the page, optionally with the given form values. Give the form fields values as an array. Note that hidden fields can't be accessed.

Skipped fields will be filled by their values from the page. You don't need to click the 'Submit' button afterwards. This command itself triggers the request to form's action.

You can optionally specify what button's value to include in the request with the last parameter as an alternative to explicitly setting its value in the second parameter, as button values are not otherwise included in the request.

Examples:

{% highlight php %}

submitForm('#login', [ 'login' => 'davert', 'password' => '123456' ]); // or $I->submitForm('#login', [ 'login' => 'davert', 'password' => '123456' ], 'submitButtonName'); {% endhighlight %} For example, given this sample "Sign Up" form: {% highlight html %} Login:
Password:
Do you agree to our terms?
Select pricing plan: Free Paid {% endhighlight %} You could write the following to submit it: {% highlight php %} submitForm( '#userForm', [ 'user[login]' => 'Davert', 'user[password]' => '123456', 'user[agree]' => true ], 'submitButton' ); {% endhighlight %} Note that "2" will be the submitted value for the "plan" field, as it is the selected option. Also note that this differs from PhpBrowser, in that {% highlight yaml %} 'user' => [ 'login' => 'Davert' ] {% endhighlight %} is not supported at the moment. Named array keys *must* be included in the name as above. Pair this with seeInFormFields for quick testing magic. {% highlight php %} 'value', 'field2' => 'another value', 'checkbox1' => true, // ... ]; $I->submitForm('//form[ * `id=my-form]',` $form, 'submitButton'); // $I->amOnPage('/path/to/form-page') may be needed $I->seeInFormFields('//form[ * `id=my-form]',` $form); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Parameter values must be set to arrays for multiple input fields of the same name, or multi-select combo boxes. For checkboxes, either the string value can be used, or boolean values which will be replaced by the checkbox's value in the DOM.

{% highlight php %}

submitForm('#my-form', [ 'field1' => 'value', 'checkbox' => [ 'value of first checkbox', 'value of second checkbox, ], 'otherCheckboxes' => [ true, false, false ], 'multiselect' => [ 'first option value', 'second option value' ] ]); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

Mixing string and boolean values for a checkbox's value is not supported and may produce unexpected results.

Field names ending in "[]" must be passed without the trailing square bracket characters, and must contain an array for its value. This allows submitting multiple values with the same name, consider:

{% highlight php %}

$I->submitForm('#my-form', [ 'field[]' => 'value', 'field[]' => 'another value', // 'field[]' is already a defined key ]);

{% endhighlight %}

The solution is to pass an array value:

{% highlight php %}

// this way both values are submitted $I->submitForm('#my-form', [ 'field' => [ 'value', 'another value', ] ]);

{% endhighlight %}

  • param $selector
  • param $params
  • param $button

switchToIFrame

Switch to another frame on the page.

Example: {% highlight html %}

{% endhighlight %}

{% highlight php %}

switchToIFrame("another_frame"); # switch to parent page $I->switchToIFrame(); {% endhighlight %} * `param string|null` $name #### switchToWindow Switch to another window identified by name. The window can only be identified by name. If the $name parameter is blank, the parent window will be used. Example: {% highlight html %} {% endhighlight %} {% highlight php %} click("Open window"); # switch to another window $I->switchToWindow("another_window"); # switch to parent window $I->switchToWindow(); ?>

{% endhighlight %}

If the window has no name, the only way to access it is via the executeInSelenium() method, like so:

{% highlight php %}

executeInSelenium(function (\Facebook\WebDriver\Remote\RemoteWebDriver $webdriver) { $handles=$webdriver->getWindowHandles(); $last_window = end($handles); $webdriver->switchTo()->window($last_window); }); ?>
