Working with Web Applications
We shall now discuss how to work with web applications −
Facebook login and logout
First, let us create a business object and enter a name for it.
We need to configure the Application Modeller.
Now we are going to spy the login button, username and password fields.
Now, we shall start the implementation part.
Create data items for email and passwords.
-
Use ”write stage” to type email id and password into Facebook site.
-
Click on Login button using Navigate Stage.
-
We are not getting the Click Actions in Navigate Stage.
-
So, go to Application Modeller and change the Login Element type to button.
-
Here, we are using the wait stage to load the site before launching the website.

Spy the required elements, first check what are the elements required for logout.
-
Then, we need to spy the arrow and sign-out option.
-
Use Navigate stage to click on arrow and click on logout.

After login button the site will take some time to load Account information. It depends on our network mean internet speed.
-
After login use conditional wait to hold the bold until the logout arrow will exists.
