Ruby Selenium Page Object and Spec - STUI to Webdriver SG Blog

rubypageobjectandspec.rb

## Sample Page Object Setup for the Ruby Selenium solution
## We have a base Page object to share some functionality across all pages
## and then each page would have its own helper functions and selectors
include Gridium

class SomePage > Page 

	def initialize
		# Set up some Gridium timeouts/waits
		# Set up @member properties i.e. references to elements through XPath/CSS
		# @button = Element.new(“Button”, :css, “button”) 
		# @nav = Element.new(“Nav”, :xpath, “nav[text()=’Side Nav’]”)
	end

	# Helper functions around interacting with the page elements
end

## Sample Spec Layout using Page Object for the Ruby Selenium solution
describe ‘Some Page Spec’ do
	before(:all) do
		# Some hacky setup and timeouts for loading the page
		# Logging into the user through the UI - antipattern
		# @local_test_vars to be used in the test
	end

	context ‘some spec group description’ do
    	# notice p1/testrail_id integrations with TestRail
		it ‘some spec description’ p1: true, testrail_id: 123456 do
			# Use page object to help interact with page
			# Assert based on elements showing/not showing on the page
    		end
  	end
end
