"""SeleniumLibrary is a *deprecated* web testing library for Robot Framework.
It uses the Selenium Remote Control tool internally to control a web browser.
See http://selenium-rc.openqa.org/ for more information on Selenium tool.
SeleniumLibrary runs tests in a real browser instance. It should work in
most modern browsers and can be used with both Python and Jython interpreters.
= Before running the tests =
Prior to running test cases using SeleniumLibrary, the Selenium Server must
be started. This can be done using keyword `Start Selenium Server` or from
the command line by using command: `java -jar
/path/to/selenium-server.jar`. The Selenium Server is included in the
SeleniumLibrary distribution and can be found under
`[PythonLibs]/site-packages/SeleniumLibrary/lib`. Additionally, `Open
Browser` keyword must be used in order to open browser in the desired
location before any other keyword from the library may be used.
= Locating elements =
All keywords in SeleniumLibrary that need to find an element on the page
take an argument, `locator`. In the most common case, `locator` is
matched against the values of key attributes of the particular element type.
For example, `id` and `name` are key attributes to all elements, and
locating elements is easy using just the `id` as a `locator`.
Asterisk character may be used as a wildcard in locators, but it only works
as the last character of the expression. In the middle of the locator it
is interpreted as literal '*'.
It is also possible to give an arbitrary XPath or DOM expression as
`locator`. In this case, the expression must be prefixed with either
'xpath=' or 'dom='.
Examples:
| Click Link | my link | # Matches if either link text or 'id', 'name' or 'href' of a link equals 'my link' |
| Page Should Contain Link | Link id * | # Passes if the page contain any link starting with 'Link id' |
| Select Checkbox | xpath=//table[0]/input[@name='my_checkbox'] | # Using XPath |
| Click Image | dom=document.images[56] | # Using a DOM expression |
Table related keywords, such as `Table Should Contain`, allow identifying
tables either by an id, by a CSS locator, or by an XPath expression.
The XPath support was added in SeleniumLibrary 2.6.
Examples:
| Table Should Contain | tableID | text |
| Table Should Contain | css=h2.someClass ~ table:last-child() | text |
| Table Should Contain | xpath=//table/[@name="myTable"] | text |
= Locating Flex elements =
SeleniumLibary 2.6 and newer support testing Adobe Flex and Flash
applications using Flex Pilot tool. For more information, including the
required bootstrapping, see
https://github.com/robotframework/SeleniumLibrary/wiki/FlexTesting
By default Flex elements are located based on `id` they have in Flex source
code. Other supported locators are `name`, `automationName`, `text`,
`htmlText`, `label` and xpath-like `chain`. To use them, you need to prefix
the value with the locator type like `name=example`. Locators also support
`*` as a wildcard.
Examples:
| Click Flex Element | foo | # Search element by id |
| Click Flex Element | name=myName | # Search element by name |
| Click Flex Element | label=Hello! | # Search element by label text |
| Click Flex Element | chain=id:someId/name:someName | # Search element first by id and then its child by name |
| Click Flex Element | name=wild* | # Name with wildcard |
| Click Flex Element | chain=name:*llo/name:world | # Chain with wildcard |
= Handling page load events =
Some keywords that may cause a page to load take an additional argument
`dont_wait` that is used to determine whether a new page is expected to
load or not. By default, a page load is expected to happen whenever a link
or image is clicked, or a form submitted. If a page load does not happen
(if the link only executes some JavaScript, for example), a non-empty value
must be given for the `dont_wait` argument. How much to wait is determined
by a timeout discussed in the next section.
There are also some keywords that may cause a page to load but by default
we expect them not to. For these cases, the keywords have an optional `wait`
argument, and providing a non-empty value for it will cause the keyword to
wait. An other possibility is using `Wait Until Page Loaded` keyword
which also accepts a custom timeout.
Examples:
| Click Link | link text | | | # A page is expected to load. |
| Click Link | another link | don't wait | | # A page is not expected to load. |
| Select Radio Button | group1 | value1 | | # A page is not expected to load. |
| Select Radio Button | group2 | value2 | and wait | # A page is expected to load. |
= Timeouts =
How much to wait when a new page is loaded is specified by a timeout
that can be given in `importing` (default is 5 seconds) or dynamically
with `Set Selenium Timeout` keyword.
There are also several `Wait ...` keywords that take timeout as an
argument. Starting from SeleniumLibrary 2.6 all these timeouts are
optional and the same timeout used with page loads is used as a default.
All timeouts can be given as numbers considered seconds (e.g. 0.5 or 42)
or in Robot Framework's time syntax (e.g. '1.5 seconds' or '1 min 30 s').
For more information about the time syntax see:
http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#time-format.
= Testing sites using https =

See http://selenium-rc.openqa.org/ for more information on Selenium tool.
SeleniumLibrary runs tests in a real browser instance. It should work in
most modern browsers and can be used with both Python and Jython interpreters.
*Before running the tests*
Prior to running test cases using SeleniumLibrary, the Selenium Server must
be started. This can be done using keyword `Start Selenium Server` or from
the command line by using command: `java -jar
/path/to/selenium-server.jar`. The Selenium Server is included in the
SeleniumLibrary distribution and can be found under
`[PythonLibs]/site-packages/SeleniumLibrary/lib`. Additionally, `Open
Browser` keyword must be used in order to open browser in the desired
location before any other keyword from the library may be used.
*Locating elements*
All keywords in SeleniumLibrary that need to find an element on the page
take an argument, `locator`. In the most common case, `locator` is
matched against the values of key attributes of the particular element type.
For example, `id` and `name` are key attributes to all elements, and
locating elements is easy using just the `id` as a `locator`.
Asterisk character may be used as a wildcard in locators, but it only works
as the last character of the expression. In the middle of the locator it
is interpreted as literal '*'.
It is also possible to give an arbitrary XPath or DOM expression as
`locator`. In this case, the expression must be prefixed with either
'xpath=' or 'dom='.
Examples:
| Click Link | my link | # Matches if either link text or 'id', 'name' or 'href' of a link equals 'my link' |
| Page Should Contain Link | Link id * | # Passes if the page contain any link starting with 'Link id' |
| Select Checkbox | xpath=//table[0]/input[@name='my_checkbox'] | # Using XPath |
| Click Image | dom=document.images[56] | # Using a DOM expression |
Table related keywords, such as `Table Should Contain`, allow identifying
tables either by an id, by a CSS locator, or by an XPath expression.
The XPath support was added in SeleniumLibrary 2.6.
Examples:
| Table Should Contain | tableID | text |
| Table Should Contain | css=h2.someClass ~ table:last-child() | text |
| Table Should Contain | xpath=//table/[@name="myTable"] | text |
*Locating Flex elements*
SeleniumLibary 2.6 and newer support testing Adobe Flex and Flash
applications using Flex Pilot tool. For more information, including the
required bootstrapping, see
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-seleniumlibrary/wiki/FlexTesting
By default Flex elements are located based on `id` they have in Flex source
code. Other supported locators are `name`, `automationName`, `text`,
`htmlText`, `label` and xpath-like `chain`. To use them, you need to prefix
the value with the locator type like `name=example`. Locators also support
`*` as a wildcard.
Examples:
| Click Flex Element | foo | # Search element by id |
| Click Flex Element | name=myName | # Search element by name |
| Click Flex Element | label=Hello! | # Search element by label text |
| Click Flex Element | chain=id:someId/name:someName | # Search element first by id and then its child by name |
| Click Flex Element | name=wild* | # Name with wildcard |
| Click Flex Element | chain=name:*llo/name:world | # Chain with wildcard |
*Handling page load events*
Some keywords that may cause a page to load take an additional argument
`dont_wait` that is used to determine whether a new page is expected to
load or not. By default, a page load is expected to happen whenever a link
or image is clicked, or a form submitted. If a page load does not happen
(if the link only executes some JavaScript, for example), a non-empty value
must be given for the `dont_wait` argument. How much to wait is determined
by a timeout discussed in the next section.
There are also some keywords that may cause a page to load but by default
we expect them not to. For these cases, the keywords have an optional `wait`
argument, and providing a non-empty value for it will cause the keyword to
wait. An other possibility is using `Wait Until Page Loaded` keyword
which also accepts a custom timeout.
Examples:
| Click Link | link text | | | # A page is expected to load. |
| Click Link | another link | don't wait | | # A page is not expected to load. |
| Select Radio Button | group1 | value1 | | # A page is not expected to load. |
| Select Radio Button | group2 | value2 | and wait | # A page is expected to load. |
*Timeouts*
How much to wait when a new page is loaded is specified by a timeout
that can be given in `importing` (default is 5 seconds) or dynamically

There are also several `Wait ...` keywords that take timeout as an

and later. This is demonstrated by the last two examples below.

| Library | SeleniumLibrary | | | 4455 | # Use default timeout and host but specify different port. |
| Library | SeleniumLibrary | server_host=http://192.168.52.1:4444 | | | # Host as URL. |
| Library | SeleniumLibrary | run_on_failure=Nothing | | | # Do nothing on failure. |

"""Starts the Selenium Server provided with SeleniumLibrary.
`params` can contain additional command line options given to the
Selenium Server. This keyword uses some command line options
automatically:
1) The port given in `importing` is added to `params` automatically
using the `-port` option.
2) A custom Firefox profile that is included with the library
and contains automation friendly settings is enabled via the
`-firefoxProfileTemplate` option. You can override this
profile with your own custom profile by using the same argument
in `params` yourself. To use the default profile on your machine,
use this argument with `DEFAULT` value (case-sensitive). Using a
custom Firefox profile automatically is a new feature in
SeleniumLibrary 2.5. For more information see
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-seleniumlibrary/wiki/CustomFirefoxProfile
3) Starting from SeleniumLibrary 2.6, if there is `user-extensions.js`
file in the same directory as Selenium Server jar, it is loaded using
the `-userExtensions` option. This is not done if the option is
defined in `params`. By default, such extension file providing Flex
testing support is loaded automatically.
Examples:
| Start Selenium Server | | | # Default settings. Uses the Firefox profile supplied with the library. |
| Start Selenium Server | -firefoxProfileTemplate | C:\\\\the\\\\path | # Uses custom Firefox profile. |
| Start Selenium Server | -firefoxProfileTemplate | DEFAULT | # Uses default Firefox profile on your machine. |
| Start Selenium Server | -avoidProxy | -ensureCleanSession | # Uses various Selenium Server settings. |
All Selenium Server output is written into `selenium_server_log.txt`
file in the same directory as the Robot Framework log file.
If the test execution round starts and stops Selenium Server multiple
times, it is best to open the server to different port each time.
*NOTE:* This keyword requires `subprocess` module which is available
on Python/Jython 2.5 or newer.
