B4J Library Selenium Library - Pnd_Selenium

Selenium automates browsers. That's it!
What you do with that power is entirely up to you.
Primarily it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that.
Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should) also be automated as well.

Library can be used in UI and Console (Non-UI) app.

Wrapper is based on Selenium Java v4.27.0 (November 25, 2024) from HERE.


Some things Selenium can do:

• Most importantly, it "sees" the web page the same way a user does, with CSS, JavaScript, etc.
• Crawl or scrape websites, particularly those that don't provide an API and load content lazily using JavaScript.
• Measure web page elements and determine their locations.
• Simulate geolocation.
• Collect virtually anything imaginable from web pages.
• Inject JavaScript into a page, execute it, and retrieve the result.
• Manipulates cookies: read, add, edit, delete.
• Move the mouse, scroll page, click, perform drag & drop actions, etc.
• Fill out fields and submit forms.
• Send text to form elements or simulate button presses.
• Convert HTML to PDF.
• Take screenshots of the "visible" part or the entire web page.
• And much, much more.

    • ScrollFromWebElement (TargetWebElement As org.openqa.selenium.WebElement, DeltaX As Int, DeltaY As Int) As org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions
      Scrolls by provided amount based on a provided origin.
      The scroll origin is the center of an element.
      If the origin is an element, and the element is not in the viewport, the bottom of the element will first be scrolled to the bottom of the viewport.
      DeltaX - The distance along X axis to scroll using the wheel. A negative value scrolls left.
      DeltaY - The distance along Y axis to scroll using the wheel. A negative value scrolls up.
    • ScrollToWebElement (TargetWebElement As org.openqa.selenium.WebElement) As org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions
      If the element is outside the viewport, scrolls the bottom of the element to the bottom of the viewport.
    • SendKeys (Keys As CharSequence) As org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions
      Sends keys to the active element.
      This differs from calling WebElement.sendKeys() on the active element in two ways:
      1. The modifier keys included in this call are not released.
      2. There is no attempt to re-focus the element - so sendKeys(KeyCodes.TAB) for switching elements should work.
    • SendKeysWebElement (TargetWebElement As org.openqa.selenium.WebElement, Keys As CharSequence) As org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions
      Sends keys to the TargetWebElement element.
      This differs from calling WebElement.sendKeys() on the TargetWebElement element in two ways:

      CONFIG is a message level for static configuration messages.
      CONFIG messages are intended to provide a variety of static configuration information, to assist in debugging problems that may be associated with particular configurations.
      For example, CONFIG message might include the CPU type, the graphics depth, the GUI look-and-feel, etc.
    • FINE As java.util.logging.Level
      FINE is a message level providing tracing information.
      All of FINE, FINER, and FINEST are intended for relatively detailed tracing. The exact meaning of the three levels will vary between subsystems, but in general, FINEST should be used for the most voluminous detailed output, FINER for somewhat less detailed output, and FINE for the lowest volume (and most important) messages.
      In general the FINE level should be used for information that will be broadly interesting to developers who do not have a specialized interest in the specific subsystem.
      FINE messages might include things like minor (recoverable) failures. Issues indicating potential performance problems are also worth logging as FINE.
    • FINER As java.util.logging.Level
      FINER indicates a fairly detailed tracing message. By default logging calls for entering, returning, or throwing an exception are traced at this level.
    • FINEST As java.util.logging.Level
      FINEST indicates a highly detailed tracing message
    • INFO As java.util.logging.Level
      INFO is a message level for informational messages.
      Typically INFO messages will be written to the console or its equivalent.
      So the INFO level should only be used for reasonably significant messages that will make sense to end users and system administrators.
    • OFF As java.util.logging.Level
      OFF is a special level that can be used to turn off logging.
    • SEVERE As java.util.logging.Level
      SEVERE is a message level indicating a serious failure.
      In general SEVERE messages should describe events that are of considerable importance and which will prevent normal program execution.
      They should be reasonably intelligible to end users and to system administrators.
    • WARNING As java.util.logging.Level
      WARNING is a message level indicating a potential problem.
      In general WARNING messages should describe events that will be of interest to end users or system managers, or which indicate potential problems.

    • NavigateRefresh
      Refresh the current page
    • NavigateTo (Url As String)
      Load a new web page in the current browser window.
      This is done using an HTTP POST operation, and the method will block until the load is complete with the default 'page load strategy'.
      This will follow redirects issued either by the server or as a meta-redirect from within the returned HTML.
      Should a meta-redirect "rest" for any duration of time, it is best to wait until this timeout is over,
      since should the underlying page change whilst your test is executing the results of future calls against this interface will be against the freshly loaded page.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.
    • PageSource As String
      Get the source of the last loaded page.
      If the page has been modified after loading (for example, by Javascript)
      there is no guarantee that the returned text is that of the modified page.
      Please consult the documentation of the particular driver being used to determine whether the returned text
      reflects the current state of the page or the text last sent by the web server.
      The page source returned is a representation of the underlying DOM: do not expect it to be formatted or escaped
      in the same way as the response sent from the web server. Think of it as an artist's impression.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.
      Returns: The source of the current page.
    • Quit
      Quits, closing every associated window.

      This driver focused on the top window / first frame.
    • SwitchToFrame (NameOrID As String)
      Select a frame by its Name or ID. Frames located by matching name attributes are always given precedence over those matched by ID.
      Params: NameOrID – the name of the frame window, the id of the frame or iframe element, or the (zero-based) index.
    • SwitchToParentFrame
      Change focus to the parent context. If the current context is the top level browsing context, the context remains unchanged.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.

    • WebDriver As org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver
      Return: WebDriver objects
  • Properties:
    • ImplicitlyWait As Long [write only]
      Specifies the amount of milliseconds the driver should wait when searching for an element if it is not immediately present.
      When searching for a single element, the driver should poll the page until the element has been found, or this timeout expires before throwing a NoSuchElementException.
      When searching for multiple elements, the driver should poll the page until at least one element has been found or this timeout has expired.
      Increasing the implicit wait timeout should be used judiciously as it will have an adverse effect on test run time, especially when used with slower location strategies like XPath.
      If the timeout is negative or greater than 2e16 - 1, an error code with invalid argument will be returned.
    • LogLevel As java.util.logging.Level [write only]
      Set the log level specifying which message levels will be logged by this logger.
      Message levels lower than this value will be discarded.
      OFF can be used to turn off logging.
      Use Pnd_LogLevel class to set level
      Dim LogLevel As Pnd_LogLevel
      Selenium.LogLevel = LogLevel.INFO
    • PageLoadTimeout As Long [write only]
      Sets the amount of milliseconds to wait for a page load to complete before throwing an error.
      If the timeout is negative or greater than 2e16 - 1, an error code with invalid argument will be returned.
    • ScriptTimeout As Long [write only]
      Sets the amount of milliseconds to wait for an asynchronous script to finish execution before throwing an error.
      If the timeout is negative or greater than 2e16 - 1, an error code with invalid argument will be returned.
• Pnd_WebElement
  • Functions:
    • Clear
      If this element is a form entry element, this will reset its value.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.
    • Click
      Click this element. If this causes a new page to load, you should discard all references to this element
      and any further operations performed on this element will throw a StaleElementReferenceException.
      Note that if click() is done by sending a native event (which is the default on most browsers/platforms)
      then the method will _not_ wait for the next page to load and the caller should verify that themselves.
      There are some preconditions for an element to be clicked.
      The element must be visible, and it must have a height and width greater than 0.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.

      Get the value of a given CSS property. Color values could be returned as rgba or rgb strings. This depends on whether the browser omits the implicit opacity value or not.
      For example if the "background-color" property is set as "green" in the HTML source, the returned value could be "rgba(0, 255, 0, 1)" if implicit opacity value is preserved or "rgb(0, 255, 0)" if it is omitted.
      Note that shorthand CSS properties (e. g. background, font, border, border-top, margin, margin-top, padding, padding-top, list-style, outline, pause, cue) are not returned, in accordance with the DOM CSS2 specification - you should directly access the longhand properties (e. g. background-color) to access the desired values.
      See W3C WebDriver specification for more details.
      PropertyName – the css property name of the element
    • GetDomAttribute (Name As String) As String
      Get the value of the given attribute of the element.
      This method, unlike getAttribute(String), returns the value of the attribute with the given name but not the property with the same name.

Hi Pendrush,

first of all, thanks a lot for this Selenium library !

I only despair at the moment with Chrome's automation, after pressing a button opens a new tab and thus the CurrentUrl is no longer correct.

Thus the question: "How can I set the focus on the new TAB and thus continue to work in it?"

Thanks in advance !

With kind regards
Pip

 

[Pendrush]

Library updated to v0.6, to switch tab use code:

Dim TabName As String
For Each name As String In Selenium.AllTabs
    TabName = name
Next
Selenium.SwitchToTab(TabName)

 

[Pip]

Hi Pendrush,

the change to the new TAB works only conditionally. The CurrentURL changes apparently, but certain elements on this TAB are unfortunately still not findable.

As an example:
org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method": "css selector", "selector": "body#body>header>form>div>div>button"}

it doesn't matter if I search with CSS selector or XPath, the element remains untraceable.

Even if I close the old TAB before executing the For Each loop, this has no effect.

I try to address a textbox and next a button. Despite the correct linking I get "No Search element" displayed. It seems to me that the website blocks such controls.

Try:
By simulating the Tab key, I navigate to the textbox and would now only need a routine to pass a text, unfortunately I am missing the element here and pure keyboard input cannot be sent, also CTRL+V fails unfortunately.

Would you still have an idea for me ?

 

[Pip]

Sorry for double post,

is there a way to disable the message "Chrome is being controlled by automated test software" and suggest to the web server that there is no underlying automation? I have not been able to solve it via startup parameters.

As an example:
I try to log in to the UPS website, automated by Chromedriver I get an "Access Denied" message.

So I would have to make it so that the web server does not notice that it is an automation software. Is there a solution for this problem?

Thanks a lot in advance !

 

[Anser]

Maybe the elements that you are trying to access are inside a Frame.
Switch to that particular frame first using the SwitchToFrame() and then try to access those elements

SwitchToFrame() was a good hint ! Thank you, I could then access the element via XPath !

Ok, so this works now, but how do I solve the problem that the UPS website (completely different website) recognizes that it is an automation ? Do you have a tip for me ?

Thank you

Maybe you can try to change user agent, for example:

Selenium.AddArgument("--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)")

You can also try some other user agent from different browsers.

Hello Pendrush,

I had

I hope this thread is not too old to add a bit to it. If so, please let me know, and I´ll start a new one.

I´ve installed Selenium, but fail to get the demo working. I´m using the latest chromedriver, which is 111.0.5563.65, whereas the chromedriver is for 111.0.5563.64, so not sure if that´s what´s causing the below:

I hope this thread is not too old to add a bit to it. If so, please let me know, and I´ll start a new one.

I´ve installed Selenium, but fail to get the demo working. I´m using the latest chromedriver, which is 111.0.5563.65, whereas the chromedriver is for 111.0.5563.64, so not sure if that´s what´s causing the below:

Thanks in advance!

Hey kostefar,

Try this before Selenium.initialize:

Selenium.addArgument("--remote-allow-origins=*")

It works fine for me !

Kind regards
Pip

Thank you SO much Pip, now I´m one step further! How did you find out about that?

Error 403 - Forbidden connection web socket

Possible arguments given by Pendrush.
https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/

--remote-allow-origins

Description:
Allows web socket connections only from the specified origins. '*' allows any origin.

Tested, works !

@Pendrush
I am still trying to bypass the bot detection. :/

@Pendrush

Is there a possibility to set the "navigator.webdriver" flag to false ?

The Chromedriver starts with navigator.webdriver = true, so the website already knows about it. This flag would be false if the website is driven by a human.

Is it possible to make the chrome dev options accessible before the chrome browser starts and thus set the flag to false ?

If this already works with the current library, I wouldn't know exactly how to do it.

Thanks in advance !

Hi,

Thank you

Would someone be able to get me started on something that looks like this in terms of filling in email address + password and clicking "Sign in"?

<div class="form-group username">
            <label class="control-label" for="Email">Email</label>
            <input class="form-control" placeholder="Email Address" autocomplete="off" tabindex="1" spellcheck="false" type="text" data-val="true" data-val-required="The Email field is required." id="Email" name="Email" value="" />
            <span class="text-danger" id="unError" style="display:none;">Please enter a valid email address</span>
        </div>
            <div class="form-group password">
                <label class="control-label" for="Password">Password</label>
                <input type="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Password" autofocus="autofocus" autocomplete="off" tabindex="2" id="Password" name="Password" />
            </div>

        <div class="form-group">
            <label class="chk-label" for="RememberLogin">
                <input tabindex="4" type="checkbox" checked="checked" data-val="true" data-val-required="The Remember Login field is required." id="RememberLogin" name="RememberLogin" value="true" />
                Remember Login
            </label>
        </div>

        <div class="form-group">
            <button type="submit" id="SubmitLogin" tabindex="3">
                Sign in
            </button>
        </div>

Thanks in advance!

PS: I did already try different things using the example attached to the initial post as a template, but with no luck so far.
