ProtoTest.Web.Selenium

The Selenium execution backend for ProtoTest.Web, with its own bounded actionability loop.

dotnet add package ProtoTest.Web.Selenium

Quick start

builder.AddWeb(
    () => new ChromeDriver(),
    options => options.ActionTimeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(8));

// The driver comes from your factory, so skip the test yourself when it may be missing.
[RequiresCapability(ProtoCapabilityKinds.Browser, CapabilityName = "Selenium")]
[ProtoTest]
public async Task Projects_render() { }

What it adds

  • BackendAddWeb(createDriver, options?) on the host builder or an application registers the Selenium backend, the Selenium browser capability and the "Web"/"Default" client; createDriver runs once per session that creates a backend.
  • Native escape hatchweb.GetBackendAsync<SeleniumWebBackend>() exposes the live IWebDriver.
  • Actionability — each interactive operation re-resolves scope and target, waits for visible, enabled and (for editing) writable state, scrolls clicks into view, waits for stable bounds and checks click obstruction when JavaScript is available, retrying stale or intercepted elements.
  • Locator translation — semantic roles resolve the implicit HTML element where the platform defines one (tr for Row, table for Table, li for ListItem, select for Combobox, …).
  • Diagnostics — on failure a screenshot (when supported), page source, URL and title; DiagnosticTraceRetention controls the selenium-{session}-diagnostics.json attachment with the actionability timeline.

Configuration

Under ProtoTest:Web:Selenium, and per session under ProtoTest:Web:Sessions:{name} (session wins).

Key Type Default
ActionTimeout TimeSpan 00:00:05
PollInterval TimeSpan 00:00:00.050
WaitForStableBounds bool true
CheckClickObstruction bool true
DiagnosticTraceRetention SeleniumDiagnosticTraceRetention (Off, OnWebFailure, Always) OnWebFailure

One driver per session with no pooling, so sessions do not share cookies or storage. There is no framework browser probe — [RequiresCapability(ProtoCapabilityKinds.Browser, CapabilityName = "Selenium")] proves only composition.
