Question: dump the current dom tree of a page into system.out

[clemens...@gmail.com]

Dear all,

we have a requirement (for official documentation) - to dump the current dom tree that is the basis of various test assertions into system out. 

Anyone an idea on how to do this ... (preferrably in a formatted ("with intends") way ..

thanks much

Can you please define what you mean by "current dom tree"? Do you mean page source? Or do you mean inner html of some of the elements you inspect in your test?

The current (fully rendered?) page that is used in my test..

So if i have an assertion, e.g. $some.path == 1, i can find that *some.path* in the dump (that will serve as evidence to an auditor that the assertion part and value truly existed at the point of test)

Please lets not argue about the why here. Its a hard requirement

I was by no means arguing the why, I just needed some clarification on what exactly you are after.

If it's the html of the whole page then you can use WebDriver.getPageSource() (https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver.html#getPageSource--). You can obtain an instance of WebDriver from Browser.getDriver() (https://gebish.org/manual/current/api/geb/Browser.html#getDriver()).

Hey Marcin- Thanks much. Will this also contain any modified dom elements?

(e.g. because the page is based on a dom modifying framework, e.g. react) ... the key is to get the "thing" (in a human readable fashion) that is the basis of the assertion ..

Marcin - we found a way .. - pretty much thru Navigator:children / .text &.value ... with a recursive strategy ... maybe we could add that to the Navigator (e.g. printContentRecursively(....))

Wouldn't using Element.innerHtml (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/innerHTML) over Geb's javascript integration (https://gebish.org/manual/current/#js-object) be a simpler solution?
