majdalden/SHAFT_ENGINE

SHAFT is an MIT licensed test automation engine. Powered by best-in-class frameworks like Selenium WebDriver, Appium & RestAssured it provides a wizard-like syntax to increase productivity, and built-in wrappers to eliminate boilerplate code and to ensure your tests are extra stable and your results are extra reliable.

SHAFT: Unified Test Automation Engine

🏃 Quick Start Guide

Option 1: Template Project

• Simply use this Template Project to get started with one click.

Option 2: New Project

Step 1: Initial Setup

• Create a new Java/Maven project using Eclipse, IntelliJ or your favourite IDE.
• Copy the highlighted contents of this pom.xml file into yours inside the <project> tag.
• Follow the steps in this footnote in case you are using IntelliJ¹.

Step 2: Creating Tests

• Create a new Package TestPackage under src/test/java and create a new Java Class TestClass under that package.
• Copy the below imports into your newly created java class.

import com.shaft.driver.SHAFT;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

• Copy the below code snippet into your newly created java class.

    SHAFT.GUI.WebDriver driver;
    SHAFT.TestData.JSON testData;

    By searchBox = By.name("q");
    By resultStats = By.id("result-stats");

    @Test
    public void test() {
        driver.browser().navigateToURL("https://www.google.com/");
        driver.verifyThat().browser().title().isEqualTo("Google").perform();
        driver.element().type(searchBox, testData.getTestData("searchQuery"))
                .keyPress(searchBox, Keys.ENTER);
        driver.assertThat().element(resultStats).text().doesNotEqual("")
                .withCustomReportMessage("Check that result stats is not empty").perform();
    }

    @BeforeClass
    public void beforeClass() {
        driver = new SHAFT.GUI.WebDriver();
        testData = new SHAFT.TestData.JSON("simpleJSON.json");
    }

    @AfterClass
    public void afterClass() {
        driver.quit();
    }

Step 3: Managing Test Data

• Create the following file src/test/resources/testDataFiles/simpleJSON.json.
• Copy the below code snippet into your newly created json file.

{
  "searchQuery": "SHAFT_Engine"
}

Step 4: Running Tests

• Run your TestClass.java as a TestNG Test Class.
• The execution report will open automatically in your default web browser after the test run is completed.
• Join our to get notified by email when a new release is pushed out.
• After upgrading your Engine to a new major release it is sometimes recommended to delete the properties folder src\main\resources\properties and allow SHAFT to regenerate the defaults by running any test method.

Footnotes

1. Due to a known issue with IntelliJ you need to edit your run configuration templates before running your tests by following these steps:
   - Open 'Edit Run/Debug Configurations' dialog > Edit Configurations... > Edit configuration templates...
   - Select TestNG > Listeners > and add these listeners one by one:
   io.github.shafthq.shaft.listeners.TestNGListener
   - Select Cucumber Java > Program Arguments > and add this argument:
   --plugin io.github.shafthq.shaft.listeners.CucumberFeatureListener
   - After saving the changes, remember to delete any old test runs you may have triggered by mistake before adding the needed config. ↩
