running a geb test from a java class

Question

I\'ve recently stumbled across geb and it looks like a good way to perform integration tests on our web applications. Our platforms are all java based and from reading that

Answer 1

The best alternative to Geb if you're using Java is IMHO Selenide (http://selenide.org)

example from Quick Start Guide:

@Test
public void userCanLoginByUsername() {
  open("/login");
  $(By.name("user.name")).setValue("johny");
  $("#submit").click();
  $(".loading_progress").should(disappear); // Waits until element disappears
  $("#username").shouldHave(text("Hello, Johny!")); // Waits until element gets text
}

It's independent from your testing framework and therefore can be used with e.g. JUnit, TestNG, Cucumber, ScalaTest, JBehave
