An Introduction to Selenium WebDriver with Python

Talkat Selenium Conf 2022 · 2022-07-29..07-30· [testing, python]
slides:none on file

Builds a working pytest + Selenium WebDriver project in Python that runs a parameterized DuckDuckGo search three times in ~10 seconds on Chrome, showing fixtures (config.json + conftest.py) that yield and quit WebDriver and provide an actor with a browser ability. Uses the screenplay pattern with pages as locators only, interactions as tasks/questions that call browser.get, find_element, send_keys and assertions, includes a tiny homegrown Python screenplay package and configurable implicit wait.
