In this blog we will be utilizing Playwright Java to verify \u201ccurrent versus expected url\u201d and verify \u201cplaceholder text\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

Verify \u201ccurrent versus expected url\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
In a test case, we might need to verify whether the curent url of the page matches with the expected url. For example, let us launch the url https:\/\/rahulshettyacademy.com\/AutomationPractice\/<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n
Let us call this as our \u201ccurrent url\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Now, on the top right hand side, we can see a link \u201cFree Access to InterviewQues\/ResumeAssistance\/Material<\/em>\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Click this link. You will be re-directed to a different url https:\/\/rahulshettyacademy.com\/documents-request<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n
Let us consider this as our \u201cexpected url\u201d.<\/p>\n
In line#26 and 30, we define our \u201ccurrent\u201d and \u201cexpected\u201d urls.<\/p>\n
Lines#32-36 will perform the verification. In line#32, we are saying that \u201cif current and expected urls donot match, than the verification passes\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Execute.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Notice the console output<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Click \u2018Home\u2019 link. You will still be on the same page https:\/\/rahulshettyacademy.com\/<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inspect \u2018Home\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0In present case, the current and expected urls are same. We can now perform the verification<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
Verify \u201cplaceholder text\u201c<\/strong><\/p>\n
Go to https:\/\/rahulshettyacademy.com\/AutomationPractice\/<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n
You can see the default placeholder text \u201cType to Select Countries\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Now how do we verify this placeholder text?<\/p>\n
We can use the \u201cgetAttribute()<\/em>\u201d method tofecth the placeholder text (see line#28).<\/p>\n
Let us intentionally make a mistake in the placeholder text (line#30)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
$\"\"$ <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Let us now correct the text and re-execute. The verification passes this time<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
