Description

Element positioning method and device of test case, computer equipment and medium

Technical Field

The application is applicable to the technical field of automatic testing, and particularly relates to an element positioning method and device of a test case, computer equipment and a medium.

Background

At present, when recording an automated test case on a User Interface (UI), a page element to be operated in a test step needs to be selected and an "element path" thereof needs to be recorded. This step can be automatically generated when an automated testing framework is used, the generated element path is generally an XPath absolute path, that is, the element path includes all levels from the root element html to the target page element, and if there are multiple elements of the same type in each level, the order of the elements in the level will be recorded, but the level and the order will also be changed when the page function is changed. Because some elements in the page are dynamically generated according to user operations, for example, a selector is displayed in a popup window, such elements are generally referred to as "dynamic elements" hereinafter, an absolute path of the dynamic element is usually inconsistent with a recording sequence at a certain level, if the influence of path change on case execution success rate is to be avoided, an ID selector is generally required to be added in a front-end service code to realize the positioning of the element, but this method has certain intrusiveness on the service code and also increases debugging cost of case recording, and another method is to preferentially use a class selector to realize the positioning of the dynamic element when identifying the content which may be the dynamic element, but a plurality of page elements may be selected by using the class selector, and finally, the correct element cannot be selected during execution, and a test case needs to be re-recorded. In order to reduce the maintenance cost of the test script, a tester generally needs to have certain automated test experience or front-end knowledge to manually identify whether the element path is reliable. Therefore, how to eliminate the irrelevant elements and realize the accurate positioning of the elements becomes a problem to be solved urgently.

It should be understood that, the sequence numbers of the steps in the following embodiments do not mean the execution sequence, and the execution sequence of each process should be determined by the function and the inherent logic of the process, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.

In order to explain the technical means of the present application, the following description will be given by way of specific examples.

The element positioning method for the test case provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to an application environment as shown in fig. 1, wherein a client communicates with a server. The client includes, but is not limited to, a palm top computer, a desktop computer, a notebook computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a cloud computing device, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and other computing devices. The server can be implemented by an independent server or a server cluster composed of a plurality of servers.

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of an element location method for a test case provided in the second embodiment of the present application is shown, where the element location method for a test case is applied to the server in fig. 1, and a computer device corresponding to the server is connected to a corresponding database to obtain a corresponding test case in the database. The computer equipment can also be connected with a corresponding client, the client is operated by a user, and the user can provide a corresponding test case to the server through the client. As shown in fig. 2, the method for locating elements of a test case may include the following steps:

step S201, generating a page element path for the test case according to a preset element path generation rule, and detecting whether at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered.

In this application, the element path generation rule may be set according to an actual application requirement, where the actual application requirement may refer to a case that a requirement for a test case in an application scenario is that no dynamic element is included, it may be determined that a path is not required to be generated by using a specific element path generation rule, for example, the specific element path generation rule may refer to a rule corresponding to an ID selector and a class selector, that is, a conventional path generation rule is used.

The element path generation rule is used when the test case is recorded, and the generation rule is determined according to the selection of a user, so that the selected element path generation rule is used for generating the page element path for the test case.

In this application, the preset element path generation rule may include an ID selector, a class selector, a text selector, and the like, and specifically, if the page element path includes an ID, the ID selector is preferentially used to generate the page element path; in order to avoid operations such as adding an ID (identity) in a service code, and the like, when the characteristics of some dynamic elements contained in a page element path are identified during recording, a class selector can be preferentially used for generating the page element path; when the page element is identified as a text node and the corresponding content is not empty, the text content of the node can be recorded, a query text selector is generated, and a page element path is generated by using the text selector.

Optionally, generating a page element path for the test case according to a preset element path generation rule includes:

detecting element characteristics of page elements contained in the test case;

if the element characteristic is detected to be the first characteristic, generating a page element path corresponding to the page element by using an ID selector;

and if the element characteristic is detected to be the second characteristic, generating a page element path corresponding to the page element by using the class selector.

The element feature may refer to a feature such as an attribute and a category of the page element, for example, if the page element includes a dynamic attribute, it may be determined that the page element is a dynamic page element. The first characteristic is distinguished from the second characteristic, the first characteristic can refer to an ID attribute in a page element, the second characteristic can refer to a dynamic attribute in the page element, and when the page element contains the ID attribute, namely the element characteristic contains the first characteristic, an ID selector is used for generating a page element path corresponding to the page element; and when the page element contains the dynamic attribute, namely the element characteristic contains the second characteristic, generating a page element path corresponding to the page element by using a class selector.

It should be understood that a plurality of page elements may exist in one page at the same time, and accordingly, a plurality of page elements may also exist in a test case at the same time, and different selectors may be used for different page elements to generate a page path, thereby helping to distinguish the different page elements and achieving accurate and efficient positioning of the page elements.

Optionally, after detecting the element features of the page elements included in the test case, the method further includes:

if the element characteristics are detected to be text node characteristics and the corresponding element contents are not empty, recording the contents of the corresponding page elements, and generating a text selector for inquiring the text contents according to the contents of the element characteristics;

a page element path corresponding to the page element is generated using the text selector.

The text node feature may mean that the corresponding page element is a text element, for example, a text box in the page is a text element, and the content in the text box is the content of the corresponding element.

Since there may be redundant text boxes in operation, but the text boxes are not filled with content, and the presentation of the page is not affected when there is no content in the text boxes, but the page is still detected because, in order to avoid processing the useless text boxes, it is necessary to define the element content of the page element whose element feature is corresponding to the text node feature, that is, the element content is not empty.

Extracting element content corresponding to the page element, and generating a text selector according to the element content, wherein the purpose of the text selector is to generate a page element path corresponding to the page element, and essentially, the text selector is an expression containing the corresponding element content, as follows:

page.locator("text＝Log in").click()

page.locator("text＝'Log in'").click()

wherein text = Log in and text = 'Log in' difference: log in is not primed (single or double quotes): fuzzy matching and insensitive to case; 'Log in' has quote: exact match and case sensitive.

Step S202, if at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered, splitting the page element path into a first sub-path and a second sub-path.

In the application, when the first sub-path is triggered, at least the page elements in the outermost page of all the page elements are selected, and when the second sub-path is triggered, all the page elements except the page element selected when the first sub-path is triggered are selected.

After the page element path is executed, the page element path is located to more than two page elements, that is, under the condition that one page element path corresponds to multiple page elements, in order to accurately locate the target element, the page element path needs to be split, the splitting may refer to splitting the page element path into two segments, and the first segment may select the outermost page element, which may be referred to as a "parent element selector"; the second segment is where the remaining page elements can be selected, which may be referred to as a "child element selector".

In the case where the number of page elements in the outermost layer is plural, the number of parent element selectors also exists, but in general, the number of page elements in the outermost layer is 1, and one or more page elements exist in the remaining page elements.

Optionally, splitting the page element path into a first sub-path and a second sub-path includes:

and intercepting paths corresponding to the page elements with the outermost layer as a first sub-path from the page element paths, and intercepting paths corresponding to the remaining page elements from the page element paths as second sub-paths.

The method comprises the steps of extracting the hierarchy attribute of the page element, further knowing the hierarchy feature of each page element, and comparing the hierarchy features of all the page elements, thereby determining the page element with the outermost layer as the hierarchy.

After the page element with the outermost layer as the hierarchy is obtained, a path corresponding to the page element is intercepted from the page element path aiming at the page element, namely the first sub-path, and the rest page elements can obtain the corresponding path from the page element path, namely the second sub-path.

Step S203, detecting the area of the page element obtained by using the first sub-path query, determining the page element with the area not equal to zero as a suspected element, and obtaining the page element with the area not equal to zero as a target element by using the second sub-path query within the page range corresponding to the suspected element.

In the method, the page elements which can be inquired by the parent element selector are traversed, whether the corresponding page elements are visible page elements or not is judged, if the corresponding page elements are visible page elements, the visible page elements are used as inquiry ranges, the corresponding page elements are inquired by the child element selector, and if the corresponding page elements are invisible page elements, the corresponding page elements are not considered to be the current direction needing to be searched.

The visible page element is that the area displayed in the page by the corresponding page element is not zero, and it can also be understood that the length, width and height of the visible page element are not 0.

For a visible page element, among a plurality of page elements, a suspected element belonging to a suspected target element may eventually include the target element, and thus, after the suspected element is obtained, the corresponding target element may be found in an enclosing range or an enclosing area in the page corresponding to the suspected element.

And under the condition that the range of the suspected elements in the page is used as a condition, the page element obtained by using the second sub-path, namely the sub-element selector for query is the target element, and the target element at the moment may be a target to be finally positioned or not. There may be a plurality of target elements found by using the second sub-path, so that further confirmation is required in step S204.

Optionally, the detecting that the area of the page element is obtained by using the first sub-path query, and determining that the page element with the area not equal to zero is a suspected element includes:

acquiring the length, width or height of a page element in a page by using a first sub-path query;

The size of the Page element in the Page can be measured by adopting Page Ruler, and the Page Ruler is a plug-in of a Page measuring Ruler and can effectively measure the size of the Page element.

During detection, the area can be determined to be zero as long as any size of the page elements is measured to be zero, and the corresponding page elements are invisible page elements and are not suspected elements.

Step S204, the positions of all the page elements in the page selected by using the page element path are respectively compared with the positions of the target elements in the page, and if the comparison result shows that the same positions exist, the target elements are determined to be the elements positioned by the page element path.

In the application, after the target element is determined, in order to determine whether the target element is an element to be located by the test case, the target element needs to be further confirmed.

And positioning the positions of all the page elements selected by the page element path from the page, similarly, positioning the position of the target element in the page, and if the position of the target element in the page is the same as the position of any page element selected by the page element path, indicating that the page element is the element to be positioned finally.

Through the steps, elements which are not required to be selected in the page can be eliminated, and the accuracy of the target elements in the path of the page elements is greatly improved, so that the case execution passing rate is ensured, and the debugging cost of testers is reduced.

Originally, when a tester records a case, a method for identifying which positioning element is used is generally adopted in a mode of adding an ID selector in a service code when the tester cannot debug the case. The method provided by the application can generate more reliable element positioning according to the actual situation of the page elements.

Meanwhile, aiming at the condition that a plurality of page elements can be positioned when the test case is executed, the processing method provided by the scheme can eliminate the elements which are not selected in the page, and effectively improves the accuracy of the target elements selected by the page element path, thereby ensuring the case execution passing rate and reducing the debugging cost of testers.

According to the method and the device, a page element path is generated for a test case according to a preset element path generation rule, whether at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered is detected, if the at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered, the page element path is divided into a first sub-path and a second sub-path, the page elements in the outermost page are selected at least when the first sub-path is triggered, all the page elements except the page elements selected when the first sub-path is triggered are selected when the second sub-path is triggered, the area of the page elements obtained by using the first sub-path query is detected, the page elements with the area not being zero are determined to be suspected elements, the page elements with the area not being zero are obtained by using the second sub-path query within a page range corresponding to the suspected elements, the positions of all the page elements selected by using the page element path in the page are respectively compared with the positions of the target elements in the page, and if the comparison result is that the same position exists, the target elements are determined to be the elements positioned by the page element path, so that the test case element positioning is accurately realized, and the test case testing personnel pass the debugging cost is reduced.

Referring to fig. 3, which is a schematic flow chart of a method for locating an element of a test case provided in the third embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, the method for locating an element of a test case may include the following steps:

step S301, generating a page element path for the test case according to a preset element path generating rule, and detecting whether at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered.

Step S302, if it is detected that at least two page elements are selected when the page element path is triggered, splitting the page element path into a first sub-path and a second sub-path.

Step S303, detecting the area of the page element obtained by using the first sub-path query, determining the page element with the area not being zero as a suspected element, and obtaining the page element with the area not being zero as a target element by using the second sub-path query within a page range corresponding to the suspected element.

The contents of steps S301 to S303 are the same as those of steps S201 to S203, and the descriptions of steps S201 to S203 may be referred to, which are not repeated herein.

And step S304, sequentially comparing the positions of all the page elements selected by the page element path with the target elements by using a document position comparison method.

In the present application, a Document position class method, that is, a method class of composition Document position in a Document Object Model (DOM) interface, is compared, so as to compare the position relationship between two elements. The composedocumentposition () method compares the document position of the current node with the specified node in the document order. The DOM is a standard programming interface for the W3C organization to process extensible markup language.

When using the compare documentposition method class, the return value may be:

1: without relation, these two elements do not belong to the same document;

2: the first element (P1) is located after the second element (P2);

4: the first element (P1) is positioned before the second element (P2);

8: the first element (P1) is located within the second element (P2);

16: the second element (P2) is located within the first element (P1);

32: two attributes that have no relationship or are two nodes in the same element;

40: the first element (P1) is in the same position as the second element (P2).

Where the return value may be a combination of values, for example, return 20 means that P2 is inside P1 (16) and P1 precedes P2 (4).

Step S305, determining a position comparison result, wherein the position comparison result comprises the same position, the front-back relationship and the inclusion relationship.

Through the above process, the document positions of the two elements are compared by using the composedocumentposition, and the result is various: identical in position, A before B, A after B, A within B, B within A, etc.

Step S306, if the comparison result indicates that the same position exists, determining that the target element is an element located by the page element path.

The content of step S306 is the same as that of step S204, and reference may be made to the description of step S204, which is not repeated herein.
