What specific HTML5 features will you be testing. HTML5 is not just
one thing.

I'd be interested to know as well. However, I asked about a diff HTML5
feature (multiple file uploader) and was told Selenium (2 / WebDriver)
may not currently support (all) HTML5 features. So bear that in mind.

In my case, I found you can't automate multiple file uploader, either
that or I haven't found the write code/method to do that.

I just recently did some basic test with local storage. You probably can test local storage with Selenium 2 / WebDriver. You may run into issues doing so with Selenium RC since you have to go through browserbot to access local storage. With WebDriver, you get direct access to it via the DOM (e.g. window.localStorage).

More details here:

granted that site talks about it from developer point of view, but you can manipulate it same way using WebDriver's Javascript executor.

FYI, in case anyone was wondering, here's sample code in Java on working with local storage. The sample below uses wrapped code around WebDriver, so you'll have to figure out the pure WebDriver code to call to execute javascript. Easily ported to other language bindings.

public void removeItemFromLocalStorage(String item){

this.executeJavascript(String.format("window.localStorage.removeItem('%s');", item));

}

public boolean isItemPresentInLocalStorage(String item){

if(this.executeJavascript(String.format("return window.localStorage.getItem('%s');", item)) == null)

return false;

else

return true;

}

public String getItemFromLocalStorage(String item){

return (String) this.executeJavascript(String.format("return window.localStorage.getItem('%s');", item));

}

public void setItemInLocalStorage(String item, String value){

this.executeJavascript(String.format("window.localStorage.setItem('%s','%s');", item, value));

}

public void clearLocalStorage(){

this.executeJavascript(String.format("window.localStorage.clear();"));

}

should work across most browsers per the link I mentioned earlier. Unless you're working with old browsers.

I made a gist for sessionStorage: https://gist.github.com/3972875

Hi David,

I am getting WebDriver executing the above java script(this.executeJavascript(String.format("window.localStorage.clear();"));) in my project.  

Browser : Firefox 30.0

Selenium : 2.42.2

From version 2.42 of selenium you can use `webDriver.getLocalStorage()` if the driver supports it.
