Selenium WebDriver is a great open source tool, but it is not software a testing library. It is a browser manipulation tool. Still, a good deal of software QA projects are built on pure Selenium. Selenide is a testing library based on Selenium for making stable and readable tests.
Selenide is an open source framework for writing easy-to-read and easy-to-maintain automated tests in Java. It defines concise fluent API, natural language assertions and does some magic for ajax-based applications to let you focus entirely on the business logic of your tests. Selenide is based on and is compatible to Selenium WebDriver 4.0+
This short 20-minute session will briefly demonstrate how you can easily migrate your Java project from pure Selenium to Selenide. You will see how to deal with Webdriver initialization, enable automated screenshots, simplify page objects and use additional Selenide features.
You will also get a link to a sample project where you can find next steps and migration guide. And no, you don’t ultimately need to refactor the entire project. You can leave old code as is, and use Selenide only in some critical parts and new code.
