Not directly the step, but the step can inspect the scenario context.
scenario.getSourceTagNames() would return the list of tags - thus you can add a @testEnv tag on the scenario and just perform the extra clicking if this tag is present.
With the configuration above, when in not in testing env, you can run all scenarios without @testEnv.

This was answered here. In short:
It is possible to add the message as a String to an assertion:
assert "a custom message" && expression
Since a non-empty String is truthy in Groovy, the assertion will only fail –and produce output– if the expression is falsey + you'll get power assertion output from it.

When using selectors i try to assume nothing. By.cssSelector("form button") is a bad selector because the frontend might change the button to an input[type="submit"].
If possible, i try to mark all my test intends with specific classes. Like By.cssSelector(".e2e-contact-form .e2e-submit"). This only assumes that there are elements with these classes, ...

Just be yourself. They asked you to the final round, so they see potential in you.
Swamping yourself with more topics and information might overwhelm you more than it benefits.
The interviewers will look at you someone with 2 years of experience, not a guru/expert/god/know-it-all.
Be honest, and saying I don't know is an good option to most questions. I ...

According to the Selenium documentation, this constructor for WebDriverWait requires a long as second argument - the timeOutInSeconds.
In Java, when NaN is used in arithmetic operations, the behavior is undefined.
You simply need to use some timeout value instead of NaN when creating the WebDriverWait object.

I believe you are missing out on the asterisk or the tag details,
//* selects all elements in a document, regardless of name, or you could provide the tag name (input, span, table, etc).
Try this code:

or

The must read book for Agile Software Testing is Agile Testing by Lisa Crispin and Janet Gregory. It is generally recognized in the modern Agile Software Quality Assurance field as 'the bible' on what to know and what to do.

Note : I am giving my suggestion in Answer as I do not have sufficient reputation to be able to comment.
First do not use thread sleep.
Second put some implicit or explicit wait between your element finding and if condition statements.

if in the beginning a bad design is chosen and the subsequent steps are always based on it, in my opinion it can also run very badly.
The whole point of iterative design is to be able to observe those bad decisions and be able to act upon them sooner then later. The team evaluate their design and implementation in each iteration,
when the design is "by ...

There are a few practices and concepts that are very important to iterative design.
First, there should be a refactoring step in every iteration. This allows space for improvements to be implemented so you are not stuck with design decisions that the team has outgrown.
Second, the team should be building with an architecture that is as decoupled as ...

If you have some html like this:
<div id="someID">some text</div>
Then calling verify text with Value == some text for xpath=//div[@id='someID'] will confirm that the text is some text

It appears to be an issue with the chrome driver implementation for Mac OSX. Around High Sierra (10.13.0) it looks like Apple introduced increased logging for their Text Services Manager (TSM).
From the discussion on this (other library) around the same issue, I don't think it will have any functional issue (but is very annoying).

By looking at the exception and the code again I have noticed that XSSFWorkbook.getSheetAt method returns a 0-based array which you then traverse starting from 0, but not stopping at size-1. That can be a reason you are receiving the IndexOutOfBounds exception. Try changing your for loop to for (int i = 0; i < numberOfSheets-1; i++).

Probably. Allure is an open-source project. So you can change the code and decide where to store the results.
Also if you can export the report you could manually store it on S3.

Unless I'm seeing things, you're hitting "www.wikipaedia.org" instead of "www.wikipedia.org" (you've got an extra "a"). On Wikipedia, the search field has an ID value of "searchInput".

I see there's already a good answer for this but I'd just like to add my explicit solution in case it helps anyone.
This solution allows you to explicitly say what amount you want any slider to be instead of passing in pixel values or manually calculating it for each slider.
So quite simply to move the slider we need to call something like.

That is a html response. You will need to add an extractor to parse the HTML and extract the data. Using Jmeter right click on the thread group and select post processors, then CSS selector extractor. Once added define the variable name as var1, set the CSS selector expression to iframe, set the attribute to sessionKey, set match number to 1 and tick box for ...

Test open source software and report defects on Github. Maybe start with the top open source applications, you might already be using some.

Using css selectors, instead of class, the syntax to select the tag with a specific class/attribute is tag[attribute='value']. So in your case:
[element.text for element in self.browser.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div[class='dept-time']")]
More information on css selectors: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp
3
To select the div with the class you can use css (preferred for readability)
BY.css
Example
driver.find_element(By.CSS, 'div.dept-time')
or xpath
BY.xpath
Example
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//div[@class=dept-time]
or if there are multiple classes for that element, use
contains
Example
//div[contains(@class, 'dept-time')]

public void setup() {
initialization();
SigninPage signinPage = new SigninPage();
}
Here, you are assigning a SiginPage object to a singinPage local variable. This object is eligible to be destroyed as soon as the method ends.
What you probably want to do is to assign this object to an attribute.
this.signinPage = new SigninPage();

You are on the right track here, but do not reinvent the wheel. Simply serializing the xml with any of the available c# serializers will get You started. I did the exact same thing for a rest API in java. It might even be possible to generate the xsl files and then create classes from them (it was in my case, thanks to the IDE). I am no expert in Visual ...

One the main reasons of doing UI automation (more applicable in your case since you said you are using Selenium WebDriver) is to test your application with different types of datasets. This include those for negative testing as well.
In your example, I would use automation to parameterize my password with different datasets that include negative ones like-

Not sure why that would happen in Win10 (same thing works for me) but couple of things you could try, depending on what you need:

I don't believe recorders will be faster in the short, nor the long run. Recorded tests need to be re-recorded, are harder to debug. Unless it is easier to get a lot of non-technical people who can continuously update the recorded test-suite.
Faster would be writing test scripts and letting people in low costs countries run the scripts daily until you have ...

This does not work, you cannot click a link that loads another page. Then go back and expect the earlier found elements to still be there in memory.

You need to again find the elements after back. Changed your example code a bit to retrieve the elements again in the loop.

Test Automation is not about having or not having test cases, which you can automate. This is about you deciding on test automation strategy. I wrote a blog post, which has several links and ideas where to start. Main idea is that you start with strategy: what do you want to automate, what kind of information you want to collect, how will you know that you ...

Mindmap all the high-level features of the application together with business owners. Go over the map with stakeholders (e.g users, developers, managers, and sponsors). Do a risk assessment with some key people, maybe also analyze brittle areas based on defect reports.

You could tackle that from two directions. You could take the bugs and ask the people who opened the bugs how to reproduce them. There is your testcase. You can probably start automating regression tests for these bugs immediately.
Or you could just write the testcases yourself based on the documents and SUT you have. Maybe there is a business capability ...

I am not sure I understand completly so here are two solutions:
If the image path does not change use css selector:

If the path does change and all you really need to do is select "some" product:
Query all divs that have a class 'card-item-img' and select ...

Here i can see that in your DOM that your image's path will unique, so if they will not change then you create the Xpath of that div using it's class and bakground-image.

When there is no way to trigger the job yourself like its proposed in https://sqa.stackexchange.com/a/38880/35888 you would need some kind of persistent memory.

For production ensure you have monitoring on the dependent service

First, to know whether you are a good tester or not (or you have tested a product well or not), the scale to check is the number of bug slips. If the number of bugs from the client / user end is more, and you had missed them in QA, SQA, UAT, Mock Live envs, then the number of bugs speak something isn't it?
And to understand the strength and weaknesses, both ...
