Hi Robert, happy to know. You can store a value in global variable or some common location (properties) and refer from here. Can check online for more ways and examples.
Raghav, Great video and explanation! Few questions if i may: 1. What frame work would you suggest to work with, UnitTest or PyTest? 2. Do you have by chance some guide/video for setup page object model with PyTest? i know you have POM video with UnitTest. Thanks again and continue with the great work!

Hi Raghav. Nice video and thank you for sharing. Where are the results of the test run saved, when using PyTest? Like default reports of JUnit or NUnit?
Hi Sandeep, we can add options to create and store results for e.g. to create junit styled report pytest --junitxml=path To create result log files pytest --resultlog=path You can also create html reports - pypi.org/project/pytest-html/ Can see tutorials here automationstepbystep.com/online-courses/

Losing the login button ID in Inspect Elements can be frustrating, but don't worry, there are still ways to identify and interact with the button! Here are some options you can consider: 1. Look for alternative identifiers: Class names: Look for unique class names associated with the button. Often, buttons have specific class names for styling or functionality that you can use for identification. Data attributes: Many elements use custom data attributes for various purposes. Look for attributes like data-login, data-submit, or specific attributes related to the button's function. Text content: If the button has unique text content like "Log In" or "Sign In," you can use cy.contains in Cypress to locate it. Accessibility attributes: Elements often have accessibility attributes like aria-label or role that describe their purpose. Identifying buttons using these attributes can be a reliable approach. 2. Use relative positioning: If the button has a consistent relationship with other elements on the page, you can use relative positioning based on those elements. For example, you could locate the button as "the next sibling of the element with class 'header-logo'". 3. Shadow DOM exploration: Some web frameworks use Shadow DOM to encapsulate components. If you suspect the button might be hidden within Shadow DOM, you can use libraries like cypress-shadow-dom or framework-specific methods to access and interact with it.
Hello Raghav, thanks for your videos.They are very informative. Can you please also do this using eclipse as in eclipse we don't have terminal .Also when I run through command prompt , I don't get any results printed . Do I need to choose pyCharm or continue using Eclipse IDE .Kindly guide , I also want to keep using the same IDE to link my project to Jenkins and Maven.
Hi Swastika, if you have installed python on your system and added pydev in eclipse, you can continue with eclipse. Although as PyCharm is built for python projects, it may be more easier to follow. You can just install it and get started
hi sir after installation of pytest and checking the version it is still giving me below error C:\Users\91956>pytest 'pytest' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Shubham Here are a few steps you can follow to resolve this issue: 1. Install pytest in PyCharm: - Open PyCharm. - Go to File > Settings > Project: \ > Python Interpreter. - In the search bar, type "selenium" and click on the "+" button to install it². 2. Check Python Interpreter: - Make sure that the Python interpreter you're using in PyCharm is the same one where you installed pytest. - You can verify this by going to File > Settings > Project: \ > Python Interpreter and ensuring that the correct interpreter is selected. 3. Verify Selenium Installation: - Sometimes, issues can arise due to missing or incorrect installations. - Open a terminal/command prompt and run the following command to check if Selenium is installed: ``` pip show selenium ``` - If it's not installed, you can install it using: ``` pip install selenium ``` 4. Restart PyCharm: - After making any changes, restart PyCharm to ensure that the changes take effect. 5. Path Environment Variable: - Ensure that the directory containing the pytest executable is included in your system's PATH environment variable. - You can add the path to the directory where pytest is installed to your system's PATH. 6. Check for Typos: - Double-check that you're running the correct command. It should be: ``` pytest ``` - Make sure there are no typos or misspellings. --
I am facing an error while running my code. The browser opens but closes within few seconds without getting the URL of the website. How I can share my code with you?
Hi Joel. pls check the following: 1. pytest was installed properly: on cmd run pip check pytest 2. ensure the name of python file has format test_*.py OR *_test.py 3. the function name has test_ in the start of the name 4. In case you are defining a class, its name should start with Test 5. On command-line you have to run it with command pytest or py.test or python -m pytest (as shown in video)
down vote favorite I installed a virtual environment and then inside installed selenium, py.test and webdriverdownloader furthermore I set up a system environment variable and added path to geckodriver But when I executed Python test from command line it fails with error : geckodriver executable needs to be in path what went wrong from my side?
Both are good and depends on needs. No of jobs with Selenium Java are more but the skills available are also huge. If you can learn Selenium with Python that will help a lot.

hey, the login button id is not longer there on the inspect elements. what should I use instead?
Losing the login button ID in Inspect Elements can be frustrating, but don't worry, there are still ways to identify and interact with the button! Here are some options you can consider:
1. Look for alternative identifiers:
Class names: Look for unique class names associated with the button. Often, buttons have specific class names for styling or functionality that you can use for identification.
Data attributes: Many elements use custom data attributes for various purposes. Look for attributes like data-login, data-submit, or specific attributes related to the button's function.
Text content: If the button has unique text content like "Log In" or "Sign In," you can use cy.contains in Cypress to locate it.
Accessibility attributes: Elements often have accessibility attributes like aria-label or role that describe their purpose. Identifying buttons using these attributes can be a reliable approach.
2. Use relative positioning:
If the button has a consistent relationship with other elements on the page, you can use relative positioning based on those elements. For example, you could locate the button as "the next sibling of the element with class 'header-logo'".
3. Shadow DOM exploration:
Some web frameworks use Shadow DOM to encapsulate components. If you suspect the button might be hidden within Shadow DOM, you can use libraries like cypress-shadow-dom or framework-specific methods to access and interact with it.
@@RaghavPal Thanks for the suggestions.
Testing or developer which course is better in future
Both are good and depends on your interests and passion. If you want to go in testing consider automation testing

Hello Raghav, thanks for your videos.They are very informative. Can you please also do this using eclipse as in eclipse we don't have terminal .Also when I run through command prompt , I don't get any results printed . Do I need to choose pyCharm or continue using Eclipse IDE .Kindly guide , I also want to keep using the same IDE to link my project to Jenkins and Maven.
Hi Swastika, if you have installed python on your system and added pydev in eclipse, you can continue with eclipse. Although as PyCharm is built for python projects, it may be more easier to follow. You can just install it and get started
@@RaghavPal ..Thank you for suggesting..

hi sir
after installation of pytest and checking the version it is still giving me below error
C:\Users\91956>pytest
'pytest' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Shubham
Here are a few steps you can follow to resolve this issue:
1. Install pytest in PyCharm:
- Open PyCharm.
- Go to File > Settings > Project: \ > Python Interpreter.
- In the search bar, type "selenium" and click on the "+" button to install it².
2. Check Python Interpreter:
- Make sure that the Python interpreter you're using in PyCharm is the same one where you installed pytest.
- You can verify this by going to File > Settings > Project: \ > Python Interpreter and ensuring that the correct interpreter is selected.
3. Verify Selenium Installation:
- Sometimes, issues can arise due to missing or incorrect installations.
- Open a terminal/command prompt and run the following command to check if Selenium is installed:
```
pip show selenium
```
- If it's not installed, you can install it using:
```
pip install selenium
```
4. Restart PyCharm:
- After making any changes, restart PyCharm to ensure that the changes take effect.
5. Path Environment Variable:
- Ensure that the directory containing the pytest executable is included in your system's PATH environment variable.
- You can add the path to the directory where pytest is installed to your system's PATH.
6. Check for Typos:
- Double-check that you're running the correct command. It should be:
```
pytest
```
- Make sure there are no typos or misspellings.

I am facing an error while running my code. The browser opens but closes within few seconds without getting the URL of the website. How I can share my code with you?
Hi Hassan, check if you are using the same version of browser driver as the browser ver on your system, also check other related comments
Can you help, after creating functions I get "Process finished with exit code 0" but it didn't run.
Hi Joel. pls check the following:
1. pytest was installed properly: on cmd run pip check pytest
2. ensure the name of python file has format test_*.py OR *_test.py
3. the function name has test_ in the start of the name
4. In case you are defining a class, its name should start with Test
5. On command-line you have to run it with command pytest or py.test or python -m pytest (as shown in video)
I followed step by step, could it be the path for my webdriver. Before defining the function it ran fine and smooth.
Do you get any logs for this.
Pls check the video again, just in case you have missed anything.
@@RaghavPal Thanks for your reply. No logs . Do I have to Enable pytest as Default test runner from the Settings/Tools ?
Hi Joel, if you try to run from command line with -v flag:
pytest -v
you should get some logs & information.

and set complete path of directory of test executed folder
1. Go to dl.bintray.com/qameta/generic/io/qameta/allure/allure
2. Download the zip and unzip it inside the bat folder that is in your python installation, e.g. C:\Libs\Python\bat
3. Go to edit system variable and in system section look for PATH variable and add the bin path of that allure in the path, e.g. C:\Libs\Python\bat\allure-2.7.0\bin\
4. close and open console and it should work :)
=====================================
I resolved this issue. Issue is Allure is not installed in our system that is why we facing this issue.Steps how to fix this issue fro windows 10 OS:
1. Open Power Shell and run this command : iex (new-object net.webclient).downloadstring('get.scoop.sh')
Note: if you get an error you might need to change the execution policy (i.e. enable Powershell) with Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -scope CurrentUser
2. After installing Allure add environment variable under System Variable : C:\Users\test123\scoop\apps\allure\current\bin
3. Restart your machine and allure serve /path of file will work.

How can I create exe for the parallel testing with pytest. I am trying to automate file download in parallel proceess for the team . I goggled and tried still no luck. Can you kindly help advise?
Hi Jalal, you want to create exe file of the project? I will like you know your scenario for this.
@@RaghavPal Yes, i want to run the parallel downloads at the users PC where python is not installed.
My code is in 2 of the .py files which i am currently running codes at my own PC and i am thinking how can i deploy this to the users .

import pytest
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from test_twotest import test_first
from test_twotest import test_second
def RunBoth():
#pytest.main(["-s","-v","-n 3"])
pytest.main(["test_twotest.py","-n 2"])
from tkinter import *
window = Tk()
window.configure(bg="lightblue")
window.geometry("300x150+120+120")
window.resizable(width=False, height=False)
window.title("IFW Form")
entry1 = Entry(window)
entry2 = Entry(window,show="*")
entry1.grid(row=0,column=1)
entry2.grid(row=1,column=1)
LoginButton = Button(window,text="Login", command=RunBoth, height=1,width=12)
LoginButton.grid(row=2,column=0)
window.mainloop()
Name of the second .py file is test_twotest and has the below code.

driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\\Selenium Drivers\\chromedriver.exe")
driver.get("www.facebook.com")
def test_second():
driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\\Selenium Drivers\\chromedriver.exe")

You should be using Version control system for this
@@RaghavPal thanks for the response sir, can you please direct me where can I get the used case for this.
Is this "global" driver approach standard?
Hi Peter, You can either make it global or inherit the class (inheritance)
why we need to use class, when we can do it with functions.
Class will help you create objects and use Object Oriented Programming.. You can watch Python basics videos for more information - automationstepbystep.com/
How can I express more.. Thank you Sooooo much.

On command line go one folder up from the folder from where you have any imports in your script
For example this is your project structure:
ProjectFolder/Example/Demo/file.py
In you file.py you have your code with import statements.
Suppose one of the import is from Demo folder
So on command line goto folder Example (parent of demo folder)
and then say command
python -m unittest Demo.file .
(note do not give .py extension)
