selenide-skill
Generates Selenide tests in Java. Concise UI testing framework built on Selenium with automatic waits and fluent API. Use when user mentions "Selenide", "$(selector)", "shouldBe(visible)", "Selenide Java". Triggers on: "Selenide", "$() selector", "shouldBe", "shouldHave", "Selenide test".
What this skill does
# Selenide Automation Skill
## Core Patterns
### Basic Test
```java
import com.codeborne.selenide.*;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.*;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Condition.*;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
class LoginTest {
@Test
void loginWithValidCredentials() {
open("/login");
$("#email").setValue("[email protected]");
$("#password").setValue("password123");
$("button[type='submit']").click();
$(".dashboard").shouldBe(visible);
$(".welcome").shouldHave(text("Welcome"));
}
@Test
void loginShowsError() {
open("/login");
$("#email").setValue("[email protected]");
$("#password").setValue("wrong");
$("button[type='submit']").click();
$(".error").shouldBe(visible).shouldHave(text("Invalid"));
}
}
```
### Selectors
```java
$("css-selector") // CSS
$(byText("Login")) // Exact text
$(withText("Welc")) // Contains text
$(byId("email")) // By ID
$(byName("password")) // By name
$(byXpath("//button")) // XPath (avoid)
$("[data-testid='login-btn']") // data attribute (best)
// Collections
$$("li").shouldHave(size(5));
$$("li").first().shouldHave(text("Item 1"));
$$("li").filterBy(text("Active")).shouldHave(size(2));
```
### Conditions
```java
element.shouldBe(visible);
element.shouldBe(hidden);
element.shouldBe(enabled);
element.shouldBe(disabled);
element.shouldHave(text("expected"));
element.shouldHave(exactText("Exact Match"));
element.shouldHave(value("input value"));
element.shouldHave(attribute("href", "/link"));
element.shouldHave(cssClass("active"));
element.shouldNot(exist);
```
### TestMu AI Cloud
```java
Configuration.remote = "https://" + LT_USERNAME + ":" + LT_ACCESS_KEY
+ "@hub.lambdatest.com/wd/hub";
Configuration.browserCapabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
Configuration.browserCapabilities.setCapability("browserName", "chrome");
Configuration.browserCapabilities.setCapability("LT:Options", Map.of(
"build", "Selenide Build", "name", "Login Test",
"platform", "Windows 11", "video", true
));
```
## Setup: Maven `com.codeborne:selenide:7.0.0`
## Run: `mvn test` (auto-downloads browser driver)
