What is Selenium | run a selenium cell on the Docker machine | Transfer login state to current browser | Search

The testLive function automates a website test by navigating to a specific URL and clicking a login link. It uses a WebDriver client to perform these actions and likely returns a result object.

Run example

npm run import -- "Test docker selenium"

Test docker selenium

function testLive() {
    return client
        .url('https://purchasesprint.actops.com')
        .click('[href*="/auth"], [routerlink*="/auth"]');
}
module.exports = testLive();

What the code could have been:

// import the required module
const { Client } = require('playwright');

/**
 * Navigate to the login page and click the login link
 * @param {Client} browser - the playwright browser instance
 * @returns {Promise<void>} a promise that resolves when the operation is complete
 */
async function navigateToLogin(browser) {
  try {
    // Launch the browser and navigate to the login page
    const page = await browser.newPage();
    await page.goto('https://purchasesprint.actops.com');
    
    // Click the login link
    await page.click('[href*="/auth"], [routerlink*="/auth"]');
  } catch (error) {
    // Handle any errors that may occur during navigation
    console.error('Error navigating to login page:', error);
  }
}

/**
 * Get the playwright browser instance
 * @returns {Promise<Client>} a promise that resolves with the browser instance
 */
async function getBrowser() {
  // Create a new browser instance
  const browser = await Client.launch();
  return browser;
}

// Get the browser instance and navigate to the login page
async function testLive() {
  try {
    const browser = await getBrowser();
    await navigateToLogin(browser);
    await browser.close();
  } catch (error) {
    // Handle any errors that may occur during the test
    console.error('Error running test:', error);
  }
}

// Export the test function for use elsewhere
module.exports = testLive;

This code defines a function testLive that simulates a user interaction with a website.

In essence, this code snippet automates a basic test scenario: navigating to a website and clicking on a login link.
