Page Factory Annotations FindBy

The video tutorial explains the concept of page object and page object factory in Selenium. It highlights the differences between the two, emphasizing the simplicity and readability of the page object factory. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on implementing the page object factory, using annotations to simplify code, and migrating existing code to this model. It concludes with the advantages of using the page object factory and demonstrates executing the program.

What is the main purpose of both Page Object Model and Page Object Factory?

• To replace Selenium entirely

• To serve the same purpose in design patterns

• To simplify the code structure

• To create complex test cases

What is a key difference between Page Object Model and Page Object Factory?

• Page Object Model is more simplified

• Page Object Factory uses annotations

• Page Object Model uses annotations

• Page Object Factory is more complex

What is the first step in transitioning a page object class to a page object factory?

• Write a new driver script

• Use the 'find by' annotation

• Create a new test case

• Change the class name

Which annotation is used in Page Object Factory to simplify element identification?

• @IdentifyBy

• @FindBy

• @LocateBy

• @ElementBy

How does the 'find by' annotation improve code readability?

• By using complex syntax

• By eliminating the need for comments

• By using descriptive names for elements

• By reducing the number of lines

What must be done after writing 'find by' annotations in a page object factory?

• Initialize elements with PageFactory

• Run the test case

• Create a new repository

• Compile the code

What is a benefit of using Page Object Factory over the traditional Page Object Model?

• It simplifies element initialization

• It is less readable

• It requires more coding

• It is less efficient

Why might some projects still use the traditional Page Object Model?

• It is more widely understood

• It is more modern

• It is less efficient

• It is more complex

What is a key advantage of using Page Object Factory in test cases?

• It requires more setup

• It increases the complexity of the code

• It makes the code less readable

• It simplifies the test case structure

In the context of the video, what is the recommended approach for new projects?

• Use a mix of both approaches

• Use Page Object Factory for simplicity

• Avoid using any design pattern

• Use the traditional Page Object Model
