Naked Page Objects

This repo contains the the code, slides and a video from the 'naked page objects' presentation. This shows the basic pattern that is followed on the fulcrum_specs test suite. http://stash.vm.wtf.nap/projects/TEST/repos/fulcrum_specs/browse Fulcrum_specs is likely to be renamed to product_management_specs.

The talk covers the following topics:

• A brief introduction to Page Objects
• A brief introduction to CSS Selectors
• A brief introduction to Capybara
• A practical example – testing http://demo.nopcommerce.com/
  • We will create tests without page objects
  • We will convert a test so that it uses a page obect
  • We will use ‘sections’ to break up the page object
• A brief introduction to SitePrism
• Look at how the example above would be implemented in SitePrism
• A look at the base modules in the Fulcrum Specs framework
• Q&A
