Welcome to the UTAM Java Repository!
The UI Test Automation Model (UTAM) project allows a developer to create and use Page Objects for automating web pages through the browser. What makes UTAM unique is that it relies on a declarative description format to define the Page Objects. This format is independent of any specific programming language, and defines the Page Objects by use of a JSON grammar. This approach allows the same Page Object definitions to be used to generate Page Objects for use in any programming language for which there is a UTAM compiler and runtime library. This repository contains the compiler and runtime library for the Java programming language.
Please note that this repository does not contain actual UTAM Page Object declarative description files. It only contains the UTAM compiler and runtime library for Java.
The UTAM project is developed and built using the Apache Maven project. To get started, you will need the following prerequisites installed:
- A Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java 11. Salesforce recommends OpenJDK.
- The Maven build system.
Once you have forked and cloned this repository, in a terminal window, you open a terminal window, navigate into the directory where you have cloned the repository, and execute
mvn clean package
This will update or install the required dependencies, and build the project.
Contributions are handled using GitHub pull requests. All new code must be accompanied by unit tests, and all existing unit tests must pass before acceptance. Contributors must sign the Salesforce Contributor License Agreement before their contribution can be accepted.
