Selenium & WebDriver

有一段时间没有关注Selenium了，最近浏览了下，Selenium已经出到2.0rc3了，最大的变化是WebDriver集成了进来

什么是WebDriver请看这篇wiki，介绍得很详细，http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions 

所以Selenium2.0其实就是Selenium 1.x+WebDriver。

WebDriver除了支持PC浏览器之外，最大的亮点是能够支持移动浏览器——WebDriverForMobileBrowsers  /

AndroidDriver ，支持Android and iOS 

当然多种开发语言的优点还是保持着，看了下 WebDriver的例子，代码比过去的Selenium更简练，

 1 from selenium import webdriver
 2 import time
 3 
 4 if __name__=='__main__':
 5     # Create a new instance of the Firefox driver
 6     driver = webdriver.Firefox()
 7     
 8     # go to the google home page
 9     driver.get("http://www.google.com")
10     
11     # find the element that's name attribute is q (the google search box)
12     inputElement = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
13     
14     # type in the search
15     inputElement.send_keys("Cheese!")
16     
17     # submit the form (although google automatically searches now without submitting)
18     inputElement.submit()
19     
20     # the page is ajaxy so the title is originally this:
21     print driver.title
22     
23     # we have to wait for the page to refresh, the last thing that seems to be updated is the title
24     while not driver.title.startswith("cheese!"):
25         # this is an infinite loop... should probably put some logic to break after x time
26         # sleep for a second
27         time.sleep(1)
28     
29     # You should see "cheese! - Google Search"
30     print driver.title
31     

     driver.quit()  

Selenium的启动，除了默认的方式

java -jar selenium-server.jar

对于公司内部的代理还可以使用

java -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=www.google.cn -jar selenium-server.jar  

java -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=www.google.cn -jar selenium-server.jar  -avoidProxy

不过我比较喜欢新建一个firefox profile，用firefox.exe -ProfileManager创建 

java -jar selenium-server.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate "/home/oscarxie/.mozilla/firefox/binmn2bo.selenium" -multiWindow 

java -jar selenium-server.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate "/home/oscarxie/.mozilla/firefox/binmn2bo.selenium"
