No actions happened using htmlelements

Question

currently i'm working on automated testing solution implementation. I decided to choose htmlelements but during this implementation i'm coding using clean webdriver+pagefactory to see the advantages of htmlelements. I'm not really good at coding and i got stuck at the almost beginning. I've created java classes as was implemented in introduction on http://htmlelements.qatools.ru/.

Here is my code:

LoginForm.java (Elements)

    package htmlelements.Elements; /**
 * Created by Asus on 06.12.2015.
 */


import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.annotations.Name;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.element.Button;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.element.HtmlElement;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.element.TextInput;


@Name("Login Form")
public class LoginForm extends HtmlElement {

    @Name("Username textbox")
    @FindBy(id = "i_user")
    private TextInput UserNameTextbox;

    @Name("Password textbox")
    @FindBy(id = "i_password")
    private TextInput PasswordTextbox;

    @Name("Login button")
    @FindBy(xpath = "//*[@Value='Login']")
    private Button LoginButton;

    public void Login(String userName, String password){
         UserNameTextbox.sendKeys(userName);
         PasswordTextbox.sendKeys(password);
         LoginButton.click();
    }
}

LoginPage(PageObject):

package htmlelements.PageObjects;

import htmlelements.Elements.LoginForm;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.annotations.Name;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.element.TextInput;
import ru.yandex.qatools.htmlelements.loader.HtmlElementLoader;


/**
 * Created by Asus on 06.12.2015.
 */

@Name("Login Page")
public class LoginPage {
    private LoginForm loginForm;

    public LoginPage(WebDriver driver){
        HtmlElementLoader.populatePageObject(this, driver);
    }

    @FindBy(id = "i_user")
    public TextInput usernm;

    public void Login(String userName, String password){
        loginForm.Login(userName, password);
    }
}

MSWhtmlelements(test):

/**
 * Created by Asus on 05.12.2015.
 */

import htmlelements.PageObjects.LoginPage;
import htmlelements.PageObjects.MainMenuPage;
import htmlelements.PageObjects.MerchantServiceWorkbenchScreen;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterSuite;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeSuite;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class MSWhtmlelements {
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeSuite
    public void initDriver() throws Exception {
        System.out.println("You are testing in firefox");
        driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.manage().window().maximize();
    }

    @Test
    public void trainingTest(){
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

        LoginPage loginPage = new LoginPage(driver);
        MainMenuPage mainMenuPage = new MainMenuPage(driver);
        MerchantServiceWorkbenchScreen mswScreen = new MerchantServiceWorkbenchScreen(driver);

        String baseLink = "http://w4w-auto:41600/";
        driver.get(baseLink);


        loginPage.usernm.sendKeys("123123");

        loginPage.Login("epichugin", "epichugin");

        mainMenuPage.GoTo();
    }

    @AfterSuite
    public void quitDriver() throws Exception {
        driver.quit();
    }
}

So, as you see i tried to invoke actions 2 times : loginPage.usernm.sendKeys("123123"); - works fine loginPage.Login("epichugin", "epichugin"); - doesn't work at all. Even no exceptions appear.

In case of webdriver+pageobjects it works very good and stable. Here is my pageobject class which works. Test for this is almost the same:

/**
 * Created by Asus on 04.12.2015.
 */

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.PageFactory;


public class PageElements {
    @FindBy(id = "i_user")
    private WebElement UsernameTextbox;

    @FindBy(id = "i_password")
    private WebElement PasswordTextbox;

    @FindBy(xpath = "//*[@Value='Login']")
    private WebElement LoginButton;

    public PageElements (WebDriver driver){
        PageFactory.initElements(driver, this);
    }

    public void login (String username, String password){
        UsernameTextbox.sendKeys(username);
        PasswordTextbox.sendKeys(password);
        LoginButton.click();
    }
}

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

You don't have @FindBy annotaion for your LoginForm class, how do you expect selenium would find your login form?
