Syntax

# Use the default wait_time
py.should().<expectation>

---or---

# Customize the wait_time for this expectation
py.should(timeout: int).<expectation>

---or---

# Ignore exceptions that you expect to "get in the way"
py.should(ignored_exceptions: list).<expectation>

# Customize both fully
py.should(timeout: int, ignored_exceptions: list).<expectation>

Examples

.contain_title()
def test_title_contains(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().contain_title("QA")
.contain_url()
def test_url_contains(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().contain_url("www.qap.dev")
.have_title()
def test_title_matches(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().have_title("QA at the Point")
.have_url()
def test_url_matches(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().have_title("https://www.qap.dev/")
.not_find()
def test_page_does_not_have_element(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().not_find("#zaboomafoo")
.not_findx()
def test_page_does_not_have_element(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().not_findx("//*[@id='zaboomafoo']")
.not_contain()
def test_text_should_not_be_present_on_page(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    assert py.should().not_contain("zaboomafoo")
Customize timeout
def test_title_matches_within_5_seconds(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    # Override global timeout for only this action
    assert py.should(timeout=5).have_title("QA at the Point")
Ignore exceptions
def test_title_matches(py):
    py.visit("https://qap.dev")
    # These exceptions will not stop the "wait until"
    exceptions = [WebDriverException, NoSuchElementException]
    assert py.should(ignored_exceptions=exceptions).have_title("QA at the Point")

Yields

  • Pylenium - If the assertion passes, then the current instance of Pylenium is returned, else an AssertionError is raised if the condition is not met within the specified timeout.

  • bool - for the Find Element expectations.
