capybara-siteprism-example-framework

A very very basic example framework in Ruby, using Cucumber, Capybara and Site Prism (for Page Objects), along with RSpec expectations, cucumber profiles and reporting.

Assumptions...

1. You are not 100% new to Ruby or Cucumber or Web Automation Testing.
2. You have some general idea as to what a web page/website is.

What this is / What's included....

1. A basic framework for testing websites, using Ruby.
2. A good example to see RSpec expectations in action.
3. A trivial example of how you can encapsulate your functionality using page objects and code DRYness.
4. Some basic control regarding choosing a browser at runtime
5. Simple intro into Rake.

What this is not...

1. An all-in-one super duper framework.
2. Something that you can 100% copy over for any app (though I suspect you'd be able to use most, as is).

Known limitations...

• No multi language

1. cd into capybara-siteprism-example-framework/
2. rvm use ruby-2.3.0
3. rvm gemset create capybara-siteprism-example-framework
4. rvm gemset use capybara-siteprism-example-framework
5. gem install nokogiri -v '1.8.2'
6. bundle install

Example commands to run a specific feature file...

After cd'ing into the 'capybara-siteprism-example-framework' directory...

cucumber features/google_search.feature

Note that the default profile will choose Chrome as the default browser.

Instructions

Then to run the tests using the default profile...

cucumber features/google_search.feature

You can also choose to use Rake (rake is a task runner, check out https://github.com/ruby/rake for useful info)

To list the available tasks...

# rake -T
# rake google_search_chrome  # Run Google Search feature with default profile

Then, to run the task...

rake google_search_chrome
