First create NonEmptyNavigator The navigators should be placed somewhere inside “integration-test/groovy”. The author First create NonEmptyNavigator.groovy: The original select did […]

Geb setup with automatic driver downloading
Got a new computer. Setting up geb can actually be easier than earlier described. build.gradle The webdriver-binaries-gradle-plugin will actually download the wanted drivers for you. First add dependency, add plugin and define dependencies: Configuration of the plugin tells which driver-versions to download.

Searchable comboboxes

Geb testing – revisited
I have now written a couple of domain geb tests and overcome the first practical obstacles. Internationalization Firefox and chrome browsers language is Norwegian, while htmlUnit is English. This means that labels et.c. will change with the configured language of the browser. Starting with this EmployeeListPage: And then change the title: I put code used […]

After some searching, and re-reading the message I noticed this “The path to the driver executable must be set by the […]

Changing log level at run-time
Sometimes you need to change log-level for parts of your application at run-time. Most likely for debugging. When researching this topic I found a useful trait that logs log-level. https://github.com/jfrosch/GrailsLoggingIssue With this I created a LogLevel controller to visualize and manipulate log-levels: The loggerList variable gets very long if not filtered. Here’s the logLevel/index.gsp: It […]
