In this blog, you’ll find out how to make a test suit manually using Selenium commands in Selenium IDE. In simple words, we’ll create test cases by inserting selenium commands rather than recording option.
For this test, we’ll search a text operation on any publicly available program (say “Google”). Subsequently, we’ll create a Login test suit within the same test suite.
To create a test suit manually, first you’ve got to travel through the foremost commonly used selenium commands which we’ve discussed within the previous section. Now, we’ll create our first test suit on search operation. we’ll search our text on Google program.

1. Insert Commands

• Launch Firefox browser.
• Click on the Selenium icon present on the highest right corner on your browser.
• It will launch the default interface of Selenium IDE.
• Enter the project name as “Manual Test”.
• Enter the test suit name as “Search Test”.
• Click on the command text box present on the Test Script Editor Box.

• Modify the properties of First command as:
• Command : open
• Target : https://www.google.co.in
• During execution of the test suit , this command will load the Google program website on your Firefox browser.

Now, we’ve to feature a command which will click on the Google program text box. For this, we’d like a singular identification element of the text box which can help the IDE to spot the target location.
The method for locating a singular identification element involves inspection of HTML codes.
• Open URL: https://www.google.co.inyour Firefox browser.
• Right click on the Google search text box and choose Inspect Element.

• It will launch a window containing all the precise codes involved within the development of the test box.

• Pick the input tag element that contains an ID name for the text box.

• Modify the properties of second command as:
• Command :click at
• Target : id=lst-ib
• During execution of the test suit , this command will click on the search text box present on the Google program website .

Note: The “Value” portion of the Test Script Editor box is optional for many of the commands.

Executing the Test Script

• Click on the “Run Current Test” button present on the tool bar menu of the IDE. it’ll execute all of your inserted commands on the browser and provides you an overall summary of the executed test script.

Now, we’ll create our test suit within an equivalent test suite.
We will generate a test suit supported login feature provided by one among the foremost popular website “Rediffmail”.
First you’ve got sign-up to urge the login credentials. For this test, we’ve already generated our login credentials.

1. Insert Commands

Click on the “Add new test” button at the highest of the test suit pane.

• Rename the test suit as “Login Test”.
• Click on the command text box present on the Test Script Editor Box.

• Modify the properties of First command as:
• Command : open
• Target : http://www.rediff.com/
• During execution of the test suit , this command will load the Rediff home page on your Firefox browser.

Now, we’ve to feature a command which will click on the “Sign-in” link present at the highest right corner of Rediff website. For this, we’d like a singular identification element of the “Sign-in” link which can help the IDE to spot the target location.
The method for locating a singular identification element involves inspection of HTML codes.

Open URL:http://www.rediff.com/ on your Firefox browser.
Right click on the “Sign-in” and choose Inspect Element.
It will launch a window containing all the precise codes involved within the development of the “Sign-in” link.
Pick the link element that contains the required name for the “Sign-in” link.
Modify the properties of second command as:
Command : click at
Target : link=Sign in
During execution of the test suit , this command will click on the “Sign in” link.The “Sign in” link will redirect you to the login page. Therefore, for the third command to be entered we’d like a singular identification for the “Username” text box which can help the IDE to spot the target location.
Right click on the “Username” text box and choose Inspect Element. It will launch a window containing all the precise codes involved within the development of the “Username” text box.o Pick the ID element that contains the precise ID for the “Username” text box.o Modify the properties of third command as:
o Command : click at
o Target : id=login1
o During execution of the test suit , this command will click on the “Username” text box.We will use an equivalent ID element for our next command which involves typing the user-id as login credential.
o Modify the properties of fourth command as:
o Command : type.
o Target : id=login1
o Value : frea********* (User Login ID)
o During execution of the test suit , this command will type the user id within the “Usename” text box.

We will now add a command which will click on the “Password” text box. For this command, we’d like a singular identification for the “Password” field which can help the IDE to spot the target location.
o Right click on the “Password” text box and choose Inspect Element.

o It will launch a window containing all the precise codes involved within the development of the “Password” text box.

o Pick the ID element that contains the precise ID for the “Password” text box.

o Modify the properties of fifth command as:
o Command : click at
o Target : id=password
o During execution of the test suit , this command will click on the “Username” text box.

We will use an equivalent ID element for our next command which involves typing the password as login credential.
o Modify the properties of sixth command as:
o Command : type
o arget : id=password
o Value : **********(User Login Password)
o During execution of the test suit , this command will type the user login password within the “Password” text box.

At last, we’d like a singular identification element for the Login Submit button which can help the IDE to spot the target location.
o Right click on the “Go” button and choose Inspect Element.

o It will launch a window containing all the precise codes involved within the development of the “Go” submit button.
o Pick the name element that contains the precise name for the “Go” submit button.

o Modify the properties of seventh command as:
o Command : click at
o Target : name=proceed
o During execution of the test suit , this command will click on the “Go” submit button.

We are now able to execute our second test script.
Executing the Test Script
o Click on the “Run Current Test” button present on the tool bar menu of the IDE. it’ll execute all of your inserted commands on the browser and provides you an overall summary of the executed test script.

o The Log pane displays the general summary of the executed test scripts.

Saving the test suite
o Click on the save button present on the acute right corner of the menu bar.

o Save the whole test suite as “Manual Test”.

o The test suite are often found at the situation provided within the above steps.
