Web automation demo with typescript and webdriverio v6

Description

This is a web browser automation demo which uses a fairly standard page object model and runs some browser tests against the wonderful The Internet site using Typescript and Webdriverio v6. There is a Javascript only version in a similarly named repo here - web-automation-wdio-javascript

Test examples cover such issues as:

• A/B Testing
• Basic Authentication
• Broken Images
• Challenging DOMs
• Checkbox Manipulation
• Drag & Drop Operations
• Dropdown Lists
• Dynamic Content
• Dynamic Controls
• Dynamic Loading
• Exit Intent
• File Upload
• Login Page

Requirements

• Use nodeJS LTS v12.18.1 or above
• Google Chrome

Setup

• use nvm (or equivalent) to set the nodeJS version
• Clone repository
• run npm install in root directory

Execution

Execution on your local machine only (for now).

• npm run test to compile the typescript and run the code
• npm run test:report to do the above and generate an (allure) html report

Known Issues

• Not sure that wdio can handle basic auth
• https://github.com/ccharnkij/webdriverio/tree/bug_fix_allure_unknown_status
• webdriverio/webdriverio#5040 The allure reporter is showing beforeEach & afterEach hooks as passed (?) and subsequent tests as Unknown.
• webdriverio-boneyard/wdio-allure-reporter#128 Issue with allure marking test hooks as passed tests

TODO

• Basic Auth - check if wdio v6 can handle basic auth
• Dynamic controls - selector syntax
• Send info to log file instead of polluting stdout
