WebDriver::Tiny - Selenium 2.0 bindings for Perl
SYNOPSIS
use WebDriver::Tiny;
my $drv = WebDriver::Tiny->new;
# Go to Google.
$drv->get('https://www.google.co.uk');
# Type into the search box 'p', 'e', 'r', 'l', <RETURN>.
$drv->('input[name=q]')->send_keys("perl\N{WD_RETURN}");
# Click the first perl result (perl.org).
$drv->('h3.r > a')->click;
# Save a screenshot of the page.
$drv->screenshot('/tmp/perl.org.png');DESCRIPTION
Selenium automates browsers. That's it! What you do with that power is entirely up to you. Primarily, it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that. Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should!) also be automated as well.
Selenium has the support of some of the largest browser vendors who have taken (or are taking) steps to make Selenium a native part of their browser. It is also the core technology in countless other browser automation tools, APIs and frameworks.
WARNING: The API of this module is unstable and may change without warning (any change will be appropriately documented in the changelog).

METHODS
Driver
new
my $drv = WebDriver::Tiny->new(
base_url => ...,
host => 'localhost',
port => 4444,
);Constructs an instance of this class.
base_url
my $base_url = $drv->base_url;
$drv->base_url($base_url);Accessor to get/set the base_url after instantiation.
Actions
execute
my $return = $drv->execute('return 1 + 1');execute_phantom
find
my @array_of_elements $drv->find('.class');
my $elements = $drv->find( '#id', %args );Return a collection of matched elements found in the DOM based on passed argument(s). Always returns a collection of WebDriver::Elements (sometimes containing no elements), in list context it will return an array of collections, each containing one element.
Due to find being the most common method invoked, the method name can be dropped altogether like so:
$drv->('#foo');
$drv->('.bar');Accepts a mandatory selector parameter and zero or more of the following key/value options:
- dies
-
Whether
finddies if it fails to find any elements. Defaults to true. - method
-
The matching pattern to use with the given selector - css, ecmascript, link_text, partial_link_text, or xpath. Defaults to 'css'.
- sleep
-
How long to sleep before a reattempt of an unsuccessful match. Defaults to 0.1 seconds.
- tries
-
Maximum number of attempts to try and find a match.
