Maven project creation in Selenium Java - Test Execution Trace

Test Overview

This test verifies that a Maven project is created successfully and that Selenium WebDriver can open a browser and navigate to a webpage.

Test Code - JUnit 5

Selenium Java

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.AfterEach;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeEach;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;

public class MavenProjectTest {
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeEach
    public void setUp() {
        // Set the path to chromedriver executable if needed
        // System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "path/to/chromedriver");
        driver = new ChromeDriver();
    }

    @Test
    public void testOpenGoogle() {
        driver.get("https://www.google.com");
        String title = driver.getTitle();
        assertEquals("Google", title, "Page title should be Google");
    }

    @AfterEach
    public void tearDown() {
        if (driver != null) {
            driver.quit();
        }
    }
}

Execution Trace - 5 Steps

Step	Action	System State	Assertion	Result
1	Test starts	JUnit test runner initializes the test class	-	PASS
2	BeforeEach method runs: ChromeDriver instance is created	Chrome browser window opens	-	PASS
3	Test method runs: driver navigates to https://www.google.com	Browser displays Google homepage	Check page title equals 'Google'	PASS
4	Assertion checks page title	Page title is 'Google'	assertEquals("Google", title)	PASS
5	AfterEach method runs: driver quits	Browser window closes	-	PASS

Failure Scenario

Failing Condition: ChromeDriver executable not found or browser fails to open

Execution Trace Quiz - 3 Questions

What does the test verify after opening the browser?

A The page title is 'Google'

B The browser URL is 'https://www.selenium.dev'

C The browser window is maximized

D The page contains a search box

Key Result

Always include setup and teardown methods to initialize and clean up WebDriver instances to avoid resource leaks and ensure tests run independently.
