Gizmo is a simple page model testing framework which aims to DRY up testing assertions by abstracting code that defines your page.

Gizmo

In homage to its humble beginnings as our 'gremlin' testing submodule.
With which we were entrusted and asked to follow 3 simple rules...

• "Don't get it wet"
• "Keep it away from bright lights....especially sunlight"
• "Don't ever feed it after midnight"

We didn't listen, and it got nasty...
So, we've gone back to the drawing board and come up with a friendlier, cuddlier testing helper.
