TestZeus:OS UI automation framework built for Salesforce with Auto-locators
summary
TestZeus is an open‑source Selenium/TestNG framework that generates auto-locators via UI API instead of hand‑coding XPath, pulling field label/type/location for ~30–35 account fields and building locators on the fly. It uses Salesforce’s EPT‑based auto-waits (page load time) to reduce flaky waits, creates and verifies an account in the demo, supports picklists/required flags, and targets Classic and Lightning. Licensed GPL‑v3, it handles many platform changes but still needs JS workarounds for complex shadow DOM/custom integrations.
