Interface ConditionRunner

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultConditionRunner, JUnit4AndTestNgConditionRunner, JUnitConditionRunner

public interface ConditionRunner

A ConditionRunner is a class that can execute a Condition, which need certain basic pieces that it needs to execute (e.g. an instance of Selenium). This is achieved through the ConditionRunner.Context interface.

Nested Class Summary

static interface

ConditionRunner.Context Used by implementations of waitFor(Condition) to provide context to the isTrue(com.google.testing.selenium.condition.ConditionRunner.Context) method

Method Summary

void	waitFor(Condition condition) This method will, every so often, evaluate the given condition's Condition.isTrue(ConditionRunner.Context) method, until: it becomes true, in which case it simply returns a certain amount of time is passed, in which case it fails by throwing an failure exception tailored to a given test framework -- e.g.
void	waitFor(String narrative, Condition condition) As above but with an additional 'should' phrase narrative used in the event of the condition failing to become true

Method Detail

waitFor

void waitFor(Condition condition)

This method will, every so often, evaluate the given condition's Condition.isTrue(ConditionRunner.Context) method, until:

• it becomes true, in which case it simply returns
• a certain amount of time is passed, in which case it fails by throwing an failure exception tailored to a given test framework -- e.g. AssertionFailedError in the case of JUnit
• it throws an exception, in which case that is wrapped inside a RuntimeException and rethrown

How often if "every so often" and how long is the "certain amount of time" is left to the specific implementations of this interface.

waitFor

void waitFor(String narrative,
             Condition condition)

As above but with an additional 'should' phrase narrative used in the event of the condition failing to become true
