Even Java interop and access to the karate JS API would work. However, unlike Cucumber, tests aren't written in Java and are fully described in the Gherkin file. Format of the trustStore file. This is useful when you ship a JAR file containing re-usable features and JavaScript / Java code and want to default a few variables that teams can inherit from. So you have the following type markers you can use instead of def (or the rarely used text). Refer to the section on XPath Functions for examples of advanced XPath usage. time: '#? The following method signatures are available on the karate JS object to obtain a websocket client: These will init a websocket client for the given url and optional subProtocol. 1 [karate]: Karate UI Automation: Unable to launch the browser. The {} and {^} locator-prefixes are designed to make finding an HTML element by text content super-easy. # if the expression begins with "_" or "! Here is an example of getting the computed style for a given element: For an advanced example of simulating a drag and drop operation see this answer on Stack Overflow. You can choose between the string-placeholder style or directly refer to the variable foo (or even the whole row JSON as __row) in JSON-friendly expressions. Note that def will over-write any variable that was using the same name earlier. For completeness, the built-in tags are the following: There are two special tags that allow you to select or un-select a Scenario depending on the value of karate.env. Modifying existing JSON and XML is natively supported by Karate via the set keyword, and replace is primarily intended for dealing with raw strings. This will fail the test if the element does not appear after the configured number of re-tries have been attempted. Path is a keyword in karate. Full Time position. Use a variable in the called feature instead, for e.g. But sometimes it is un-avoidable, for example to wait for animations to render - before taking a screenshot. Since replace auto-converts the result to a string, make sure you perform type conversion back to JSON (or XML) if applicable. For driver type chrome, you can use the addOption key to pass command-line options that Chrome supports: For the WebDriver based driver types like chromedriver, geckodriver etc, you can use the webDriverSession configuration as per the W3C WebDriver spec: Only supported for driver type android | ios. return results.size() == 2 ? Heres a reminder that the #notpresent marker can be mixed into an equality match (==) to assert that some keys exist and at the same time ensure that some keys do not exist: The ! locateAll() can take a second argument which has to be a JavaScript predicate function, that returns a boolean true or false. Note that the optional(), exists() and locate() APIs are a little different from the other Element actions, because they will not honor any intent to retry() and immediately check the HTML for the given locator. { id: 23, name: 'Bob' }, It short-cuts to the pre-defined variable responseHeaders and reduces some complexity - because strictly, HTTP headers are a multi-valued map or a map of lists - the Java-speak equivalent being Map>. A common use case is to mix API-calls into a larger test-suite, for example a Selenium or WebDriver UI test. Here are some example assertions performed while scraping a list of child elements out of the JSON below. Karate supports JUnit 5 and the advantage is that you can have multiple methods in a test-class. Note that the parallel runner will run Scenario-s in parallel, which means they can run in any order. Everything to the right of the assert keyword will be evaluated as a single expression. You can use karate.callSingle() in karate-config.js like this: It can take a second JSON argument following the same rules as call. And especially when it comes to test-automation, we have found that attempts to apply patterns in the pursuit of code re-use, more often than not - results in hard-to-maintain code, and severely impacts readability. But this time, the return value from the call step will be a JSON array of the same size as the input array. Comprehensive support for different flavors of HTTP calls: You can easily choose features and tags to run and compose test-suites in a very flexible manner. As a convenience, all the methods on the driver have been injected into the context as special (JavaScript) variables so you can omit the driver. part and save a lot of typing. Custom header manipulation for every HTTP request is something that Karate makes very easy and pluggable. So you can do this, without needing the https:// part: You can also switch by page index if you know it: This sets context to a chosen frame (or
