# Creating a Web Test

## Creating Scripts <a href="#creating-scripts" id="creating-scripts"></a>

For Oxygen IDE download instructions - please refer to the [Download Page](https://docs.oxygenhq.org/download-installation-start/download-and-installation/download-oxygen-ide).

In this guide we will be using the following test scenario to demonstrate how to develop a simple test script:

1. Open Wikipedia website
2. Select English area
3. Enter "selenium" in the search field
4. Press "Search" button
5. Validate that the page header shows the word "Selenium"

### Basic Script <a href="#basic-script" id="basic-script"></a>

Oxygen provides a number of built-in objects (modules) for automation purposes. Because in our sample scenario we want to automate only browser interactions, we will use the `web` module. Refer to API Reference for a complete list of provided modules and methods.

1. Open Wikipedia website.

   ```javascript
   web.open('https://www.wikipedia.org/');
   ```

   `open` command accepts only one argument - web site URL. It will open the provided URL and return once the web-page has been fully loaded.
2. Select English area.

   ```javascript
   web.click('id=js-link-box-en');
   ```
3. Enter "selenium" in the search field.

   ```javascript
   web.type('name=search', 'selenium');
   ```

   `type` allows typed strings into input elements and accepts two arguments: a locator which will be used for finding the element and a string which will be typed into that element. See API Reference for a list of supported locators.
4. Press "Search" (looking glass icon) button. This command will return once the web-page has been fully loaded.

   ```javascript
   web.click('name=go');
   ```

   Similarly to other commands `click` accepts a locator argument. It will click on the provided element and block until the new page has been fully loaded.
5. Validate that the page header shows the word "Selenium"

   ```javascript
   web.assertText('id=firstHeading', 'Selenium');
   ```

   `assertText` asserts whether the element contains the specified text. This command will fail the test if element doesn't contain the text or wasn't found at all.

Entire script:

```javascript
web.open('https://www.wikipedia.org/');
web.click('id=js-link-box-en');
web.type('name=search', 'selenium');
web.click('name=go');
web.assertText('id=firstHeading', 'Selenium');
```

Now open a new script in the IDE and paste the above snippet into it. Save the file as `wikipedia.js`. In the dropdown menu select the browser you wish to run the script in and click Run.
