Selenium Page Object Model Using Page Factory | Selenium Tutorial For Beginners | Edureka
The document discusses the Page Object Model (POM) and its advantages in software testing, particularly in maintaining web UI element locators. It explains that POM is a design pattern that separates test scripts from element locators, ensuring easier maintenance and reusability. Additionally, it introduces the Page Factory, which enhances POM by allowing for efficient element lookups and caching.

Now if the path/locator of any element changes, then what happens? PROBLEM STATEMENT A web page with ‘x’ elements OH MY GOD !! Do I have to change the element locators in entire test script? Test Script SOLUTION Test case Element locator

Here, all the element locators used by the application will be stored in a class file separately from test case. Test Case Page Class Locators & test script stored separately POM Design Pattern • Element locators • Methods performing operations on elements. Page Class contains • Actual test scenario • Calls to methods in page class with arguments. Test Case contains

POM Implementation With Page Factory Without Page Factory • Uses By(). • No imports needed. • No cache storage. • Uses @FindBy(). • Import package: Page factory. • Cache lookup is faster. Page Factory is a built-in class in Selenium for maintaining object repository. (Import package: Page Factory) With Page Factory, initElement() statement can be used for easily looking up elements in page class. Page Factory allows storing of page elements in cache memory using @CacheLookup annotation. 1. Maintainability 2. Reusability 3. Flexibility 4. Optimized code ADVANTAGES
