Introduction
Selenium WebDriver provides a highly flexible and robust API to extend the features and commands and add customization for building a scalable test automation framework. This chapter covers some of the important recipes for extending Selenium WebDriver for various practical scenarios.
In this chapter we will write Selenium WebDriver extensions that support web tables, object maps, and image comparison features.
We will also build an extension for jQuery UI control. You can use this pattern for implementing support for third party or custom controls used in your application by hiding technical details from the tests. This makes test development a lot easier.
