Classpath Setup for Java - Windows

Purpose: Classpath Setup for Java - Windows 7

We all know the importance of CLASSPATH for Java. Setting PATH/CLASSPATH is very easy but some of us facing difficulties. For them I want to contribute from my blog. Following steps will provide how easy we can set CLASSPATH/PATH for Java.


Step 1: Download and install Java if not available on your box. You can download from the following URL:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

Step 2: By default JDK will be install at "C:\Program Files\Java\jdkxxx.xx" location only. Unless we change the location at the time of installation this is the default location.

Step 3: Go to JDK installed location and you will find bin folder and open that one. copy the bin folder path.

Step 4: Right Click on My Computer and Select "Properties". Once the Properties window is opened click on Advanced System Settings.

Step 5: Once Advance System Settings window is opened click on Environment Variables option

Step 6: Once Environment Variables window is opened click on New under System Variables and enter Variable Name as PATH and Variable Values  as Path of Java Bin Folder(previously copied path) and click OK

Step 7: Go to JDK folder -> open lib folder and copy the path

 

Step 8: Repeat the steps 4 and 5. Now click on New under User Variables and enter User Variable as CLASS and Variable Values as Path of the lib folder and click on OK

Step 9:  Click on OK of Environment Variables window and System Properties window

Step 10: Open Command Prompt and run any java program and you are able to successfully complete.








 

Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers only or cross browser testing - Opening Browsers Parallel

Purpose: Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers only or cross browser testing - Opening Browsers Parallel

In my previous post I provided one way of executing same script with different browsers. Now I am going to show how to run the same script parallel(opening all the browsers at time)

Only the change is very small but I wontedly keeping the post separately to avoid the confusion.

The parallel attribute on the <suite> tag can take one of following values:

<suite name="My suite" parallel="methods">

parallel="methods": TestNG will run all your test methods in separate threads. Dependent methods will also run in separate threads but they will respect the order that you specified.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="tests">

parallel="tests": TestNG will run all the methods in the same <test> tag in the same thread, but each <test> tag will be in a separate thread. This allows you to group all your classes that are not thread safe in the same <test> and guarantee they will all run in the same thread while taking advantage of TestNG using as many threads as possible to run your tests.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="classes">

parallel="classes": TestNG will run all the methods in the same class in the same thread, but each class will be run in a separate thread.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="instances">

parallel="instances": TestNG will run all the methods in the same instance in the same thread, but two methods on two different instances will be running in different threads.


From the above parameters: we will use parallel="tests" to achieve our goal.

Step 1: We need to write our case with small change by passing a parameter.

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Parameters;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class MultiBrowser {
 private WebDriver driver;

 @Parameters("browser")
 @BeforeMethod
 public void setup(String browser)
 {
  if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("firefox"))
  {
   driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("iexplorer"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
   driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("chrome"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
   driver = new ChromeDriver();
  }
  driver.manage().window().maximize();
 }

 @AfterMethod
 public void tearDown()
 {
 driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void testMultiBrowser() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.get("http://www.google.com");
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
}

2. Now we need to create TestNG.xml and write the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd" >
<suite name="MultiBrowser">
       <test name="TestFirefox" verbose="10">
              <parameter name="browser" value="firefox" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="ChromeTest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="chrome" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="IETest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="iexplorer" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
</suite>

3. Now run the code from TestNG.xml

You can observer all the three browsers will open and perform the task at a time.






 

Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers onfly or cross browser testing

Purpose: Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers

Testing in multiple browsers or Browser compatibility Testing: these are the word we always bother while automating our Test Cases. Following code will help how to execute the same script with multiple browsers.

Step 1: We need to write our case with small change by passing a parameter.

public class MultiBrowser {
 private WebDriver driver;

 @Parameters("browser")
 @BeforeMethod
 public void setup(String browser)
 {
  if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("firefox"))
  {
   driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("iexplorer"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
   driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("chrome"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
   driver = new ChromeDriver();
  }
  driver.manage().window().maximize();
 }

 @AfterMethod
 public void tearDown()
 {
 driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void testMultiBrowser() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.get("http://www.google.com");
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
}

2. Now we need to create TestNG.xml and write the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd" >
<suite name="MultiBrowser">
       <test name="TestFirefox" verbose="10">
              <parameter name="browser" value="firefox" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="ChromeTest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="chrome" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="IETest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="iexplorer" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
</suite>

3. Now run the code from TestNG.xml

You can observer all the three browsers will open and perform the task one another.

Clicking on CSS Drop Down sub Menu using Selenium WebDriver

Purpose: Clicking on CSS Drop Down sub Menu using Selenium WebDriver

Some times we encounter to test different types of Web Sites which have some dynamic features and automating such features are little bit difficult. One of such example is CSS Drop Down Menus & Sub-menus.

Following code will help to handle CSS Drop Down Menus & Sub-menus:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class DropDownCSSMenu {
 public String baseURL = "http://demo.lateralcode.com/css-drop-down-menus/";
 public WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 public Actions action = new Actions(driver);

 @BeforeTest
 public void launchBrowser()
 {
  driver.get(baseURL);
 }

 @AfterTest
 public void closeBrowser()
 {
  driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void test() throws InterruptedException
 {
  WebElement home = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Home"));
  WebElement about = driver.findElement(By.linkText("About"));
  WebElement contact = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Contact"));
 
  action.moveToElement(home).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[1]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 
  action.moveToElement(about).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 
  action.moveToElement(contact).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
}

Executing Sequence of Selenium Test Cases in a Cusomized Sequence

Purpose: Executing Sequence of Selenium WebDriver Test Cases in a Cusomized Sequence

While automating any application we come across a situation where we need to execute multiple test cases in a particular sequence. But when it comes to execute the test cases they will execute randomly. In order to execute the test cases in our pre requisite order we need to pass a parameter to @Test method priority and a value(Lower priorities will be scheduled first).

Following code will be useful to accomplish the requirement:
 

 import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class OrderOfTestCase {

 public String baseURL = "http://www.google.com";
 public WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

 @BeforeTest
 public void launchBrowser()
 {
  driver.get(baseURL);
 }

 @AfterTest
 public void closeBrowser()
 {
  driver.quit();
 }

 @BeforeMethod
 public void getTitle()
 {
  System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
 }
 @AfterMethod
 public void goToPreviousPage()
 {
  driver.navigate().back();
 }

 @Test(priority = 0)
 public void images() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.findElement(By.linkText("Images")).click();
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
 }

 @Test(priority = 1)
 public void maps() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.findElement(By.linkText("Maps")).click();
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
 }

 @Test(priority = 2)
 public void mail() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.findElement(By.linkText("Gmail")).click();
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
 }

Automation Testing for Android Mobile Web Applications & Steps to setup environment

Purpose: Automation Testing for Android Mobile Web Applications & Steps to setup environment
Introduction:

Android WebDriver allows to run automated end-to-end tests that ensure your site works correctly when viewed from the Android browser. Android WebDriver supports all core WebDriver APIs, and in addition to that it supports mobile spacific and HTML5 APIs. Android WebDriver models many user interactions such as finger taps, flicks, finger scrolls and long presses. It can rotate the display and interact with HTML5 features such as local storage, session storage and application cache.

The current apk will only work with Gingerbread (2.3.x), Honeycomb (3.x), Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.x) and later.

• Note that there is an emulator bug on Gingerbread that might cause WebDriver to crash.

Install the Android SDK:

Download the Android SDK, and unpack it to ~/android_sdk/. NOTE: The location of the Android SDK must exist in ../android_sdk, relative to the directory containing the Selenium repository.

Android WebDriver test can run on emulators or real devices for phone and tablets.

Setup Emulator

To create an emulator, you can use the graphical interface provided by the Android SDK, or the command line. Below are instructions for using the command line.

First, let's create an Android Virtual Device (AVD):

$cd ~/android_sdk/tools/
$./android create avd -n my_android -t 12 -c 100M

-n: specifies the name of the AVD.
-t: specifies the platform target. For an exhaustive list of targets, run:

./android list targets

Make sure the target level you selected corresponds to a supported SDK platform.
-c: specifies the SD card storage space.
When prompted "Do you wish to create a custom hardware profile [no]" enter "no".

Now, start the emulator. This can take a while, but take a look at the FAQ below for tips on how to improve performance of the emulator.

$./emulator -avd my_android &

Setup the Device

Simply connect your Android device through USB to your machine.

Using the Remote Server

This approach has a client and a server component. The client consists of your typical Junit tests that you can run from your favorite IDE or through the command line. The server is an Android application that contains an HTTP server. When you run the tests, each WebDriver command will make a RESTful HTTP request to the server using JSON according to a well defined protocol. The remote server will delegate the request to Android WebDriver, and will then return a response.

Install the WebDriver APK

Every device or emulator has a serial ID. Run this command to get the serial ID of the device or emulator you want to use:

$~/android_sdk/platform-tools/adb devices

Download the Android server from http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list. To install the application do:

$./adb -s <serialId> -e install -r  android-server.apk

Make sure you are allowing installation of application not coming from Android Market. Go to Settings -> Applications, and check "Unknown Sources".
Start the Android WebDriver application through the UI of the device or by running this command:

$./adb -s <serialId> shell am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n org.openqa.selenium.android.app/.MainActivity

Now we need to setup the port forwarding in order to forward traffic from the host machine to the emulator. In a terminal type:

$./adb -s <serialId> forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080

This will make the android server available at http://localhost:8080/wd/hub from the host machine. You're now ready to run the tests. Let's take a look at some code.

Run the Tests

import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.android.AndroidDriver;
public class OneTest extends TestCase {
  public void testGoogle() throws Exception {
    WebDriver driver = new AndroidDriver();
   
    // And now use this to visit Google
    driver.get("http://www.google.com");
   
    // Find the text input element by its name
    WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
   
    // Enter something to search for
    element.sendKeys("Cheese!");
   
    // Now submit the form. WebDriver will find the form for us from the element
    element.submit();
   
    // Check the title of the page
    System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
    driver.quit();
  }
}

To compile and run this example you will need the selenium-java-X.zip (client side piece of selenium). Download the selenium-java-X.zip from our download page, unzip and include all jars in your IDE project. For Eclipse, right click on project -> Build Path -> Configure Build Path -> Libraries -> Add External Jars

Hope this will be useful for steup and test your application under Android.

Capturing all Links in a page, filtering and visiting filtered pages.

Purpose: Capturing all Links in a page, filtering and visiting filtered pages.


In general while testing any application we are facing a situation where we need to visit specific link available on the Web Page. The Following script help floks how to handle it.

In the following example, I am going to visit 'www.google.com', captures all the links available on the page, filter the required link and visit that link page.

import java.util.List;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Links {
 public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

  WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  driver.get("http://www.tata.com/");
  driver.manage().window().maximize();
//  Extract all links from the webpage using selenium webdriver
  List<WebElement> all_links_webpage = driver.findElements(By.tagName("a"));

//  Print total no of links on the webpage
  System.out.println("Print total no of links on the webpage---------------------------------------------");
  System.out.println(all_links_webpage.size());

//  Filter the Link and visit that link
  System.out.println("Print Links------------------------------------------------------------------------");
  for(int i=0;i<all_links_webpage.size();i++)
  {
   Thread.sleep(1000);
   if(all_links_webpage.get(i).getText().toLowerCase().contains("contact"))
   {
    System.out.println("Search Resutl found");
   String link = all_links_webpage.get(i).getAttribute("href");
   driver.navigate().to(link);
   Thread.sleep(3000);
   break;
   }
  }
 driver.quit();
 }
}

How to Run Webdriver Script under Internet Explorer and Google Chrome

Purpose: How to Run Webdriver Script for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome

Running Webdriver script for Internet Explorer & Chrome is not as same as working with Firefox browser. Following are the steps to Run:

Step 1: In order to run, we need to download IE Driver & Chrome Driver and we can download from https://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/detail?name=IEDriverServer_Win32_2.31.0.zip
https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/list

Step 2: Include the respective drivers in to the Path

Step 3: Set the System property using the following Command which takes two parameters Driver and location of the driver.

System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");

Step 4: Now create an Driver Object for IE using the following command

driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

Once we start running the script Internet Explorer will open and execute script.

Following is the sample code for IE and kept commented code for Google Chrome

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class DriversExample{
private static InternetExplorerDriver driver;
//private static ChromeDriver driver;
@BeforeClass
 public void beforeClass()
 {
  System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
  driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
//  System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
//  driver = new ChromeDriver();
  }
@Test
 public void testDrivers() throws Exception
 {
  driver.get("http://www.google.com");
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
@AfterClass
 public void afterClass()
 {
  driver.close();
 }
}

Capturing all Links on a Web Page and visiting those links using Web Driver

Purpose: Capturing all Links on a Web Page and visiting those links

In general while testing any application we are facing a situation where we need to visit each link available on the Web Page. The Following script help floks how to handle it.

In the following example, I am going to visit 'www.google.com', captures all the links available on the page, visiting each link and coming back to home page.

importjava.util.List;

importorg.openqa.selenium.By;

importorg.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

importorg.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

importorg.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Links {

private static String homeWindow = null;

private static String[] links = null;

private static int linksCount = 0;

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("http://www.google.com/");

// Fllowing instruction extract all links from the webpage using selenium webdriver

List<WebElement> all_links_webpage = driver.findElements(By.tagName("a"));

// Print total no of links on the webpage

System.out.println("Print total no of links on the webpage----------------------------------------------------");

linksCount = all_links_webpage.size();
System.out.println(linksCount);

links= new String[linksCount];// Following instruction stores each link and Prints on console

System.out.println("Print Links-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------");

for(int i=0;i<linksCount;i++)

{

links[i] = all_links_webpage.get(i).getAttribute("href");

System.out.println(all_links_webpage.get(i).getAttribute("href"));

}

// Following instruction Return an opaque handle to this window that uniquely identifies it within this driver instance.

// This can be used to switch to this window at a later date

homeWindow = driver.getWindowHandle().toString();

// Visiting Each Link in on the Page

System.

out.println("Visiting Each Links------------------------------------------------------------------------");

for(int i=0;i<linksCount;i++)

{

driver.navigate().to(

links[i]);

Thread.sleep(3000);

driver.switchTo().window(

homeWindow);

}

driver.quit();

}

}

Maximizing Browser Window using Selenium Rc and Web Driver

Purpose: Maximizing Browser window using Selenium RC and Web Driver

When ever we are opening Web Browser using Selenium RC and Web Driver, it will open in Resized state. But that will not give complete view of the Browser conten. In order to maximize the the window we need to use two different methods in RC and Web Driver.

Maximizing the Browser Window using RC

Once you started the Browser use the following Selenium RC command to maximize the Browser Window
(browser is the object of my DefaultSelenium Class)

browser.windowMaximize();

Maximizing the Browser Window using Web Driver:

It is not as same as RC in Web Driver. We need to use the following command

( driver is the Object of Respective Browser Driver Class )

driver.manage().window().maximize();
 

Unsupported Major/Minor Version issue while executing Selenium Scripts / Java Programs using Eclipse IDE

Purpose: When ever we are executing Selenium Scripts / Java Program which is developed / written in some othere version than our version we will get the error "Java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: .............................Unsupported major.minor version"

If you are executing the program using Console / Command Prompt, using additional parameter -source <version number>

For example, if your file name is VersionError.java and executing through Command Prompt use the following command to execute successfully:

javac -source 1.4 VersionError.java

The program will compile successfully.

If you are executing the code using Eclipse IDE follow the steps mentioned below:

Step 1: Click on 'Project' menu option and select 'Properties' submenu.

Step 2: Click on Project Facts from RNP and Select Java in RNP

Step 3: Select required version of Java and click on OK.

Now Run the application and the issue will be resolved.

Switching between Windows using Selenium Webdriver

Purpose: Switching between Windows using Selenium Webdriver

We come across to handle switching b/w windows while accessing different webpages. Inroder to automate switching b/w windows, following steps will help you to write Selenium Webdriver Script with the help of Java

It is not as easy as handling with Selenium Rc. We can achive with the help of getWindowHandle() and switchTo().window() methods.

Following is the Selenium Webdriver with Java script to handle popup windows:


package com.webdriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class SwitchWindow {

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
 {
  FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  driver.get("http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/");
  // Return an opaque handle to this window that uniquely identifies it within this driver instance. This can be used to switch to this window at a later date
  String parentWindow = driver.getWindowHandle().toString();
  driver.findElement(By.linkText("Pop up windows")).click();
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Example HTML Popup Window Code:[\\s\\S]*$"));
    driver.findElement(By.linkText("Open a popup window")).click();
    // to switch control to the new popup window by name
    driver.switchTo().window("popUpWindow");
    assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Copy/Paste HTML Codes[\\s\\S]*$"));
    // closing the popup window
  driver.close();
  // to switch control from popup window to another window, here parent window
  driver.switchTo().window(parentWindow);
  assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Example HTML Popup Window Code:[\\s\\S]*$"));
  driver.close();
 }
}

// Code for TestNG

package com.webdriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
public class SwitchWindow {
 FirefoxDriver driver;
  @Test
  public void testSwitchWindow() {
   driver.get("http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/");
   // Return an opaque handle to this window that uniquely identifies it within this driver instance. This can be used to switch to this window at a later date
   String parentWindow = driver.getWindowHandle();
   assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*HTML Codes - Free[\\s\\S]*$"));
   assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Pop up windows[\\s\\S]*$"));
   driver.findElement(By.linkText("Pop up windows")).click();
   assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Open a popup window[\\s\\S]*$"));
   driver.findElement(By.linkText("Open a popup window")).click();
   // to switch control to the new popup window by name
   driver.switchTo().window("popUpWindow");
   assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Copy/Paste HTML Codes[\\s\\S]*$"));
   // closing the popup window
   driver.close();
   // to switch control from popup window to another window, here parent window
   driver.switchTo().window(parentWindow);
   assert(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("BODY")).getText().matches("^[\\s\\S]*Open a popup window[\\s\\S]*$"));
  }
  @BeforeClass
  public void beforeClass() {
   driver = new FirefoxDriver();
   driver.manage().window().maximize();
  }
  @AfterClass
  public void afterClass() {
   driver.close();
  }
}
