Writing a basic Chrome scenario
Karate’s documentation recommends starting with automating the Chrome browser since it is the easiest and most capable. So, we will now create our first basic browser test for Chrome.
Opening a website in Chrome
We need to know in advance which browser we want to use so that we can specify the correct driver. Based on this, Karate will use the desired browser and protocol. For this example, we will start with the most straightforward one: Chrome.
Configuring the Karate driver
We will create a new scenario called First test and gradually add functionality during the next sections:
Scenario: First test
* configure driver = { type: 'chrome' }
As with other Karate-specific settings we have seen in earlier chapters, we use the configure keyword. This time, we tell Karate that our driver instance should be of type chrome. This driver instance should not be confused with WebDriver from the W3C WebDriver...
