Title Validation Made Easy

Verify title field

hey hi everyone this is mukesh from learn - automation comm in this video we are going to discuss how to verify title in selenium-webdriver this is one of the basic validation in automation not only in selenium in any automation you need to make sure the title is matching as per the requirement or not we need to verify whether we are lending to the right page or not right so this one line of code is enough to verify the title and selenium have predefined method to capture the title so if I create a new class now verify title so before using before verifying this you should watch two videos which I posted recently like how to use assert how to use soft assert so using this assertion will verify the title of the application so quickly I will create a small test public void verify application title and I will quickly write the test and I will start with webdriver Firefox driver I will maximize this and I will say driver dot get I will simply start my blog that is this learn - automation com and you can see the title is coming selenium webdriver tutorials free selenium tutorials and if you see the page source I am getting this selenium webdriver tutorials free selenium tutorials right so we need to verify whether the title is this or not so as of now just pass this URL once will pass now we can capture the title using one method call get title you can see this message write a method so what it does it will capture the title of the page and it will return you the string so let's store the title in a string and I will say my title now if you want to print you can print I will say title is my title but now we need to verify right so how this verification so it's giving view some issue ok this plus symbol has to come here yeah so now this is the actual rate this is the actual title that will be coming from our application whenever you do validation you should have expected result as well right so let's say expected title is so this is the expected title now this is actual this is expected now we need to verify whether both are same or not so now I will use assert okay now make sure you are taking a set of tests in G same assault class you have in J unit so make sure you are using a set of tests in G so if you simply type a certain press control space you will get the suggestions so take a set from testing G and put dot operator so you can see again I am getting list of assert and if you have not still seen my previous video on assertion then please have a look because that will help you to understand what exactly assert is and now you can see I have a method we simply accept actual and expected so actual is this right my title so I will simply type my title and expected is expected rate and if well - in pass I will say test completed or let's fail this test so I will remove these tutorials from here I have only given selenium-webdriver tutorials free selenium and actual will be coming something different so idly this should film a test and if it is failing my test this will not be printed so let's run this so it will mess the exact contained okay and if it is not missing it will fail so in the next scenario I will show you if you don't want to match the exact content let's say you want only the title should contain selenium webdriver to do this that's all it should not match completely it should only check the some part of the string that was that is also possible so we'll see in the next example in this case it will fail case is still loading you can see this loading symbol is coming yeah so if you go back and see test run one failure one now if you go up and if you see the reason is expected was selenium-webdriver tutorials free selenium but actual is free selenium tutorials you can see some mismatch right so that's the reason it has been failed so assert equals will check the exact content so now let's use another flavor and it totally up to you do you want to make the exact match the exact content if yes then use this or else use this approach which I'm going to show you right now so try to assert dot assert true so assert true will only pass if it will get true condition so I will check this is the my title right which contains the actual title I will see if my titles which is coming from the application contains this particular keyword I am only checking selenium webdriver to told that so if yes then continue my test and I will say page verified this is another way and I like this way because sometimes complete title may not match but if you need to check the specific part of title you can use this so in this case we don't want the expected I will only check if the title contains selenium webdriver tutorial it should complete my test so this is one way using get title we have another way using get paste source so that will give you an as an assignment so try to explore how to verify title using page source this is very interesting and you can say important question for interviews as well how do you verify title using page source I will give you a small hint as well so you don't have to google it Firefox is little bit slow so taking some time to load in the meanwhile I will show you right now we are using get title right if you don't want to use get title just check one more method called get paid source so it will return you the complete page source okay so in the pasted source if I write like and if I say view page source you can see I'm getting title as well so you need to verify if I say driver dot get page source so we need to verify if page source contains in any web driver tutorial it means my test pass just try to explore from your end now let's see the console not test run successfully because title contains selenium webdriver tutorials and you can see now now this statement is executed correctly without fail so this statement is getting printed number 33 okay so that's all I have for this video so try to cover this using get paste source and let me know sure able to automate the same and if you still have some issues then drop me an email and in case you like this video please share with your friends subscribe to my channel and let me know how we can improve this thank you so much have a nice day bye bye
