UI Elements


UI Elements

Simply, UI = User Interface

Consider any Application, Here I’m taking
www.google.com as an example.

If you navigate to Google URL on any browser, it should be look like below.




From this, you can observe something like below in the application.
Search box, buttons (Sign In, Google Search, I’m Feeling Lucky), Google Image, Links (Gmail, Images) and many more
So, all these elements are available in user interface. Hence, we called them as “UI ELEMENTS”

We can have categorized all above elements in 2 ways
Input Elements: Search box, buttons, Google Image, Links
Output Elements: Google Result

Operations which you performed on input/output elements is called as Input / Output Actions

Input Actions: Clicks, Text Typing, Mouse Hover, Key board Shortcuts
Output Actions: Getting Text, Finding Elements, Getting Results

From above, UI elements only constructs an application, if we know how to interact with them enables you to implement UI automation much faster and easier.

All interactions with the UI can be split into input and output as discussed above. This categorization helps you better understand which actions to use in different scenarios, when to use them, and the technology behind them. These are also going to be useful when dealing with scraping (Which discuss later)

Then the very Next Question is
How to Interact with UI Elements?

Generally, when we trying to identify a person/thing we took some properties (Height, width, color). In the same way, if you want to interact with UI Elements, you’ve to consider UI Elements properties

Types of Recording

Types of Recording: 4 types of recording modes are available Ø   Basic Ø   Desktop Ø   Web Ø   Citrix 2 ways of Recording Ø   Automatic Ø   Manual Basic – generates a full selector for each activity and no container, the resulted automation is slower than one that uses containers and is suitable for single activities. Desktop – suitable for all types of desktop apps and multiple actions; it is faster than the Basic recorder, and generates a container (with the selector of the top-level window) in which activities are enclosed, and partial selectors for each activity. Web – designed for recording in web apps and browsers (supported: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome), generates containers and uses the Simulate Type/Click input method by default. Citrix – used to record virtualized environments (VNC, virtual machines, Citrix, etc.) or SAP, permits only image, text and keyboard automation, and requires explici...

Defect/Bug Life Cycle

Bug Life Cycle: It is a cycle in which a defect goes through different phases during its lifetime The Journey of a Defect/Bug from its NEW (or Born/Found ) state to Close (or END/Fixed ) state, so this journey of a cycle is known as ‘ BUG LIFE CYCLE ’. We can also called it as ‘ DEFECT LIFE CYCLE ’ 1.        New:  When a defect is logged and posted for the first time. It’s state is given as new. 2.        Assigned:  After the tester has posted the bug, the lead of the tester approves that the bug is genuine and he assigns the bug to corresponding developer and the developer team. It’s state given as assigned. 3.        Open:  At  this state the developer has started analyzing and working on the defect fix. 4.        Fixed:  When developer makes necessary code changes and verifies the changes then he/she can make bu...
