php-webdriver v1.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-01-13 // over 7 years ago
  • ➕ Added

    • ➕ Added getCapabilities() method of RemoteWebDriver, to retrieve actual capabilities acknowledged by the remote driver on startup.
    • ➕ Added option to pass required capabilities when creating RemoteWebDriver. (So far only desired capabilities were supported.)
    • ➕ Added new expected conditions:
      • urlIs - current URL exactly equals given value
      • urlContains - current URL contains given text
      • urlMatches - current URL matches regular expression
      • titleMatches - current page title matches regular expression
      • elementTextIs - text in element exactly equals given text
      • elementTextContains (as an alias for textToBePresentInElement) - text in element contains given text
      • elementTextMatches - text in element matches regular expression
      • numberOfWindowsToBe - number of opened windows equals given number
    • Possibility to select option of <select> by its partial text (using selectByVisiblePartialText()).
    • XPathEscaper helper class to quote XPaths containing both single and double quotes.
    • WebDriverSelectInterface, to allow implementation of custom select-like components, eg. those not built around and actual select tag.

    🔄 Changed

    • Symfony\Process is used to start local WebDriver processes (when browsers are run directly, without Selenium server) to workaround some PHP bugs and improve portability.
    • Clarified meaning of selenium server URL variable in methods of RemoteWebDriver class.
    • 🗄 Deprecated setSessionID() and setCommandExecutor() methods of RemoteWebDriver class; these values should be immutable and thus passed only via constructor.
    • 🗄 Deprecated WebDriverExpectedCondition::textToBePresentInElement() in favor of elementTextContains().
    • 👻 Throw an exception when attempting to deselect options of non-multiselect (it already didn't have any effect, but was silently ignored).
    • 🐎 Optimize performance of (de)selectByIndex() and getAllSelectedOptions() methods of WebDriverSelect when used with non-multiple select element.

    🛠 Fixed

    • XPath escaping in select*() and deselect*() methods of WebDriverSelect.
