What is Hybrid Driven and Keyword Driven in selenium? - selenium

Question

Please give an example for Hybrid Driven and Keyword Driven using selenium. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Never heard about Hybrid driven testing, you might be referring to testing hybrid applications.
A hybrid application (hybrid app) is one that combines elements of
both native and Web applications. Native applications are developed
for a specific platform and installed on a computing device. Web
applications are generalized for multiple platforms and not installed
locally but made available over the Internet through a browser. Hybrid
apps are often mentioned in the context of mobile computing.
About Keyword driven testing, each keyword corresponds to an individual testing action like a mouse click, selection of a menu item, keystrokes, opening or closing a window or other actions. A keyword-driven test is a sequence of operations, in a keyword format, that simulate user actions on the tested application.

Answer 2

Posted below is a simple class for Hybrid (Modular and Data Driven) framework -
SearchData.java
Has the code for data to be used in the test.
package com.data;
public class SearchData {
private String url;
private String searchWord;
public String getUrl() {
return url;
}
public void setUrl(String url) {
this.url = url;
}
public String getSearchWord() {
return searchWord;
}
public void setSearchWord(String searchWord) {
this.searchWord = searchWord;
}
}
SearchPage.java
Contains modules of code.
package com.page;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import com.data.SearchData;
public class SearchPage {
WebDriver driver;
public SearchPage(WebDriver driver) {
this.driver = driver;
}
public void launchGoogle(SearchData searchData) {
driver.get(searchData.getUrl());
}
public void search(SearchData searchData) {
driver.findElement(By.name("q")).sendKeys(searchData.getSearchWord());
driver.findElement(By.name("btnG")).click();
}
}
GoogleTest.java
Contains the actual Junit Test.
package com.test;
import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import com.data.SearchData;
import com.page.SearchPage;
public class GoogleTest {
protected WebDriver driver;
#Before
public void setUp() {
driver = new FirefoxDriver();
}
#After
public void tearDown() {
driver.close();
driver.quit();
}
#Test
public void searchTest() throws InterruptedException {
// set the data
SearchData searchData = new SearchData();
searchData.setUrl("https://www.google.com");
searchData.setSearchWord("Selenium");
// call the methods
SearchPage searchPage = new SearchPage(driver);
searchPage.launchGoogle(searchData);
searchPage.search(searchData);
Thread.sleep(10000);
}
}
The above code is pretty basic and can be enhanced to a great extend.
As for Keyword driven framework use SELENIUM IDE / ROBOT FRAMEWORK.
