As a prerequisite, we need to enable the Remote Automation feature from the developer menu. To do so, enable the Safari Developer menu first with the steps below:
- Go to Safari -> Preferences-> Advanced
- Tick mark the Checkbox with the label – Show Develop menu in the menu bar
Once done, go to the Develop menu and click on the Allow Remote Automation option to enable it.
Once this is done, users can straightaway get started with the programming part without downloading Safari WebDriver.
Below is the sample code to run selenium script in safari browser
Java
package selenium;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.safari.SafariDriver;
public class TestSafari {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
WebDriver driver= new SafariDriver();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS) ;
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get("https://google.com");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[text()='Accept all']")).click();
driver.findElement(By.name("q")).sendKeys("yosuva");
driver.findElement(By.name("q")).submit();
driver.quit();
}
}
Python
import os
import unittest
from selenium import webdriver
class SafariTest(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.driver = webdriver.Safari()
def tearDown(self):
self.driver.quit()
def test_example_1(self):
driver = self.driver
driver.get('https://google.com')
driver.find_element_by_xpath('//div[text()='Accept all']').click()
driver.find_element_by_name('q').send_keys('yosuva')
driver.find_element_by_name('q').submit()
if __name__ == "__main__":
unittest.main()
Ruby
require 'selenium-webdriver'
require 'rspec/expectations'
include RSpec::Matchers
def setup
@driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :safari
end
def teardown
@driver.quit
end
def run
setup
yield
teardown
end
run do
@driver.get 'https://google.com'
@driver.find_element(xpath: '//div[text()='Accept all']').click
@driver.find_element(name: 'a').send_keys 'yosuva'
@driver.find_element(name: 'a').submit
end
C#
using NUnit.Framework;
using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
public class SafariTest
{
IWebDriver Driver;
[SetUp]
public void SetUp()
{
Driver = new SafariDriver();
}
[TearDown]
public void TearDown()
{
Driver.Quit();
}
[Test]
public void UploadFileFromDisk()
{
Driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://google.com");
Driver.FindElement(By.Xpath("//div[text()='Accept all")).Click();
Driver.FindElement(By.Name("q")).SendKeys("yosuva");
Driver.FindElement(By.Name("q")).Submit();
}
}
This is what happens when we run the above code
- Launch Safari browser
- Visit https://www.google.com
- Click Accept all button
- Enter the search query “yosuva”
- Submits the details
- Close the browser
