Testing web apps using Puppeteer

Translations: Français

Dependencies

• Puppeteer: npm install --save-dev puppeteer

Setup

The first step is setting up a helper to configure the environment:

./test/_withPage.js

import puppeteer from 'puppeteer';

module.exports = async (t, run) => {
	const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
	const page = await browser.newPage();
	try {
		await run(t, page);
	} finally {
		await page.close();
		await browser.close();
	}
}

Usage example

./test/main.js

import test from 'ava';
import withPage from './_withPage';

const url = 'https://google.com';

test('page title should contain "Google"', withPage, async (t, page) => {
	await page.goto(url);
	t.true((await page.title()).includes('Google'));
});

test('page should contain an element with `#hplogo` selector', withPage, async (t, page) => {
	await page.goto(url);
	t.not(await page.$('#hplogo'), null);
});

test('search form should match the snapshot', withPage, async (t, page) => {
	await page.goto(url);
	const innerHTML = await page.evaluate(form => form.innerHTML, await page.$('#searchform'));
	t.snapshot(innerHTML);
});
