NAME
Test::WWW::Selenium - Test applications using Selenium Remote Control VERSION
version 1.33 SYNOPSIS
Test::WWW::Selenium is a subclass of WWW::Selenium that provides convenient testing functions. use Test::More tests => 5; use Test::WWW::Selenium; # Parameters are passed through to WWW::Selenium my $sel = Test::WWW::Selenium->new( host => "localhost", port => 4444, browser => "*firefox", browser_url => "http://www.google.com", default_names => 1, error_callback => sub { ... }, ); # use special test wrappers around WWW::Selenium commands: $sel->open_ok("http://www.google.com", undef, "fetched G's site alright"); $sel->type_ok( "q", "hello world"); $sel->click_ok("btnG"); $sel->wait_for_page_to_load_ok(5000); $sel->title_like(qr/Google Search/); $sel->error_callback(sub {...}); DESCRIPTION
This module is a WWW::Selenium subclass providing some methods useful for writing tests. For each Selenium command (open, click, type, ...) there is a corresponding "<command>_ok" method that checks the return value (open_ok, click_ok, type_ok). For each Selenium getter (get_title, ...) there are four autogenerated methods ("<getter>_is", "<getter>_isnt", "<getter>_like", "<getter>_unlike") to check the value of the attribute. By calling the constructor with "default_names" set to a true value your tests will be given a reasonable name should you choose not to provide one of your own. The test name should always be the third argument. NAME
Test::WWW::Selenium - Test applications using Selenium Remote Control REQUIREMENTS
To use this module, you need to have already downloaded and started the Selenium Server. (The Selenium Server is a Java application.) ADDITIONAL METHODS
Test::WWW::Selenium also provides some other handy testing functions that wrap WWW::Selenium commands: get_location Returns the relative location of the current page. Works with _is, _like, ... methods. error_callback Sets the method to use when a corresponding selenium test is called and fails. For example if you call text_like(...) and it fails the sub defined in the error_callback will be called. This allows you to perform various tasks to obtain additional details that occured when obtianing the error. If this is set to undef then the callback will not be issued. AUTHORS

NAME
Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp - Test::WWW::Mechanize for CGI::Application SYNOPSIS
# We're in a t/*.t test script... use Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp; my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp->new; # test a class that uses CGI::Application calling semantics. # (in this case we'll new up an instance of the app and call # its ->run() method) # $mech->app("My::WebApp"); $mech->get_ok("?rm=my_run_mode&arg1=1&arg2=42"); # test a class that uses CGI::Application::Dispatch # to locate the run_mode # (in this case we'll just call the ->dispatch() class method). # my $dispatched_mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp->new; $dispatched_mech->app("My::DispatchApp"); $mech->get_ok("/WebApp/my_run_mode?arg1=1&arg2=42"); # create an anonymous sub that this class will use to # handle the request. # # this could be useful if you need to do something novel # after creating an instance of your class (e.g. the # fiddle_with_stuff() below) or maybe you have a unique # way to get the app to run. # my $custom_mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp->new; $custom_mech->app( sub { require "My::WebApp"; my $app = My::WebApp->new(); $app->fiddle_with_stuff(); $app->run(); }); $mech->get_ok("?rm=my_run_mode&arg1=1&arg2=42"); # at this point you can play with all kinds of cool # Test::WWW::Mechanize testing methods. is($mech->ct, "text/html"); $mech->title_is("Root", "On the root page"); $mech->content_contains("This is the root page", "Correct content"); $mech->follow_link_ok({text => 'Hello'}, "Click on Hello"); # ... and all other Test::WWW::Mechanize methods DESCRIPTION
This package makes testing CGIApp based modules fast and easy. It takes advantage of Test::WWW::Mechanize to provide functions for common web testing scenarios. For example: $mech->get_ok( $page ); $mech->title_is( "Invoice Status", "Make sure we're on the invoice page" ); $mech->content_contains( "Andy Lester", "My name somewhere" ); $mech->content_like( qr/(cpan|perl).org/, "Link to perl.org or CPAN" ); For applications that inherit from CGI::Application it will handle requests by creating a new instance of the class and calling its "run" method. For applications that use CGI::Application::Dispatch it will call the "dispatch" class method. If neither of these options are the right thing, you can set a reference to a sub that will be used to handle the request. This module supports cookies automatically. Check out Test::WWW::Mechanize for more information about all of the cool things you can test! CONSTRUCTOR
new Behaves like, and calls, Test::WWW::Mechanize's "new" method. It optionally uses an "app" parameter (see below), any other parameters get passed to Test::WWW::Mechanize's constructor. Note that you can either pass the name of the CGI::Application into the constructor using the "app" parameter or set it later using the "app" method. use Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp; my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp->new; # or my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp->new(app => 'TestApp'); METHODS
$mech->app($app_handler) This method provides a mechanism for informing Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp how it should go about executing your run_mode. If you set it to the name of a class, then it will load the class and either create an instance and ->run() it (if it's CGI::Application based), invoke the ->dispatch() method if it's CGI::Application::Dispatch based, or call the supplied anonymous subroutine and let it do all of the heavy lifting.
