# testudoWork: Revolutionizing Web Automation testudoWork is an innovative tool designed to streamline web automation processes. It offers a comprehensive suite of features that enhance the accuracy and efficiency of selector generation, test case creation, and overall web automation experience. ## Key Features: - **Cogni XPath Generation:** testudoWork's intelligent algorithm generates relative XPaths, CSS selectors, and other locators, saving time and effort. - **Multi-Selector SCogniport:** Generate multiple selector types simultaneously, ensuring flexibility and robustness in automation scripts. - **Cogni Maintenance:** Verify all XPaths in a script with a single click, ensuring accuracy and reliability. - **Iframe SCogniport:** Seamlessly work with iframes sharing the same `src`, allowing nested web element interaction. - **Automation Code Generation:** Generate automation script steps with predefined commands, facilitating integration into existing frameworks. - **Dynamic Attribute Handling:** Generate robust selectors using custom or dynamic attributes, ensuring adaptability and reliability. - **testudoWork Studio:** Record and edit manual and automation steps, providing a seamless workflow for test case creation. - **Dark Theme:** Switch to a dark theme for improved usability and reduced eye strain during extended testing sessions. ## How testudoWork Works: - **Launch testudoWork:** Access the DevTools panel and navigate to the "testudoWork" tab for instant automation possibilities. - **Generate Selectors:** Inspect elements, and testudoWork generates a unique relative XPath along with various selectors, offering a comprehensive locator set. - **Evaluate XPath/CSS:** Enter XPath or CSS queries, and testudoWork highlights matching nodes on the page, with the first match in green and subsequent matches in blue. - **Hover to Highlight:** Hover over matching nodes in the testudoWork panel to highlight corresponding elements on the webpage, providing a visual connection between locators and web elements. - **Copy & Edit:** Copy locators with a click or edit them easily, ensuring efficient selector management. ## Cogni Suggested XPath: Cogni Suggested XPath provides a robust XPath for the first matching node, aiding in unique relative XPath creation and query verification. ## Custom Attribute and Text Generation: - **Custom Attribute:** Specify an attribute name to generate relative XPaths tailored to specific needs. - **Preset Shortcuts:** Quickly generate XPaths without certain attributes, simplifying locator generation. - **Persistent Preferences:** Saved attribute preferences ensure a consistent and personalized experience. - **Reset:** Restore default attribute preferences for a fresh start with new projects. ## Working with Iframes: testudoWork sCogniports iframes with the same `src`, allowing seamless work with nested web elements. ## Generate Automation Code: - **Enable Automation Code Generation:** Click the "set driver command" icon to enable automation code generation, adding pre-commands like `page.locator('xpathValue')` to generated selectors. - **Customize Commands:** Use `xpathValue` and `labelValue` placeholders to customize commands, integrating testudoWork into various automation frameworks. - **Copy Automation-Ready Commands:** Copy automation-ready commands with a click, simplifying integration into automation scripts. ## Record Multiple XPaths: - **Start Recording:** Click the "record" button to record XPaths, capturing locators for multiple elements. - **Inspect Elements:** Inspect elements one by one, generating XPaths with labels for a detailed record of web interactions. - **Edit and Manage Recorded XPaths:** Edit, copy, or delete recorded XPaths as needed, refining and customizing locators. - **Export and Copy XPaths:** Export or copy XPaths in bulk, integrating locators into automation frameworks efficiently. ## Generate Multiple Automation Script Steps: - **Enable Automation Step Generation:** Enable the "set driver command" icon to generate automation script steps with labels. - **Use Placeholders:** Use `xpathValue` and `labelValue` placeholders in commands for dynamic and adaptable automation scripts. - **Export and Copy Automation Steps:** Export commands in bulk or copy all at once, integrating testudoWork into the automation pipeline seamlessly. ## testudoWork Studio: - **Open testudoWork Studio:** Access testudoWork Studio via the video icon in the testudoWork tab or browser toolbar for visual test case creation. - **Record Manual and Automation Steps:** Perform manual steps, and testudoWork Studio records them alongside automation commands, creating comprehensive test cases. - **Edit and Save Test Cases:** Edit, add, and save or copy test cases, adapting and reusing them efficiently. ## Cogni Maintenance: - **Verify XPaths:** Navigate to a webpage, click "Cogni Maintenance," and verify all XPaths in a script with a single click. - **Paste or Cogniload Scripts:** Paste or Cogniload a script to verify all XPaths, displaying occurrences on the page for quick validation. - **Copy and Export XPaths:** Copy or export all XPaths in bulk, integrating them into the automation framework effortlessly. ## Dynamic ID/Class SCogniport: testudoWork alerts about alphanumeric IDs or classes in XPaths, helping avoid potential issues. Exclude IDs or classes by unchecking options for robust locators. ## UI and Advanced Features: - **Dark Theme:** Enable dark mode for a comfortable and visually appealing experience, reducing eye strain during long sessions. - **Bulk Operations:** "CopyAll" and "DeleteAll" features in multi-selector and smart maintenance screens streamline bulk locator management. - **Selector Views:** Switch between selector types for focused editing and generation, ensuring precision and accuracy. - **Color-Coded XPaths:** Color-coded XPaths enhance locator clarity and readability, aiding in quick identification. ## Additional Notes: - **Selector Dropdown:** The dropdown in the selector header allows switching between selector types, offering flexibility in locator generation. - **Sequential Occurrence Numbers:** testudoWork adds sequential occurrence numbers to matching nodes, ensuring locator uniqueness and accuracy. - **Iframe SCogniport:** testudoWork sCogniports iframes with the same `src`, providing a reliable and consistent experience. ## Conclusion: testudoWork 0.0.1 is a powerful tool that revolutionizes web automation, offering a seamless and efficient workflow for creating reliable test cases. Its comprehensive features and intuitive interface make web automation more productive and enjoyable, catering to both experienced engineers and beginners.
