Time for action – working with OperaProfile - Selenium

Imagine that you want to test your web application that uses geolocation in the browser, when it cannot use geolocation. All location-based applications need to support this if you were to get a user who is worried about privacy on certain machines.

1. Update the setUp() method to load the OperaDriver() : OperaProfile profile = new OperaProfile(); profile.preferences().set("Geolocation","Enable geolocation", false); driver = new OperaDriver(profile);

2. Now we need to find an element. In this section we will find the link Chapter 4:

   WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.linkTexxt("Chapter 4"));

3. Now we need to click on the link:

   element.click();

4. Run your test and it should look like the following:

   public class TestChapter6 { WebDriver driver; @Before public void setUp() { OperaProfile profile = new OperaProfile(); profile.preferences().set("Geolocation",Enable geolocation", false); driver = new OperaDriver(profile); driver.get("http://www.wisdomjobs.com/"); } @After public void tearDown() { driver.quit(); } @Test public void testExamples() { WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Chapter 4")); element.click(); Assert.assertEquals(1, driver.findElementsiBy.linkText("index")).size()); } }

What just happened?

We have just seen how we can set a preference with Opera and then inject that into the browser so that when the browser starts, it is there for us to use. As mentioned earlier, there are a lot of different preferences that can be set. To see a list of these, open Opera and use the URL opera: config or visit http: //www.opera.com /support/ usingopera/ operaini/.
