Selenide Slow Down Execution

[Andre Steenkamp]

Hi guys,

Is there a way to slow down the execution of steps in Selenide?

I am not referring to waiting on elements to be visible or clickable etc I do all those things but I am purely talking from the perspective of showing your automation to colleagues by slowing down each click or action you do.

Putting Selenide.sleeps everywhere you want a delay looks very messy and I know other automation tools such as Playwright has a config option to do this exact thing, again purely for the purposes of showcasing what your automation is doing to a person in real time.

Thank you

Andre

Hi Andre.

In Selenide, you can add WebDriverListener that intercepts any web driver calls (find, click, sendKeys - whatever). 

You can make pauses, take screenshots, highlight elements - whatever you wish.

Something like this:

WebDriverRunner.addListener(new WebDriverListener() {
  @Override
  public void beforeAnyCall(Object target, Method method, Object[] args) {
    sleep(200);
  }

  @Override
  public void afterAnyCall(Object target, Method method, Object[] args, Object result) {
    if (target instanceof WebElement) {
      $((WebElement) result).highlight();
      sleep(200);
    }
  }
});
