Flex UI Selenium
It seems like you’re asking about using Selenium to interact with a Flex UI (Adobe Flex application). Unfortunately, Selenium alone cannot directly handle Flex UI elements, as it was primarily designed for web applications based on HTML and JavaScript. Flex applications use a proprietary technology from Adobe, which is not natively supported by Selenium.
However, there are some workarounds and alternative solutions to automate testing of Flex applications. Here are a few approaches:
Selenium-Flex API: There used to be a project called “Selenium-Flex API” that provided a bridge between Selenium and Flex applications. It allowed Selenium to interact with Flex UI components, but it might not be actively maintained or supported in newer versions of Flex or Selenium. You can search for this project and see if it meets your needs.
External Automation Tools: Some third-party tools specialize in automating Flex applications. These tools typically use automation libraries or Flex automation APIs provided by Adobe to interact with Flex components. Examples include Ranorex, TestComplete, and Sikuli.
Using a Proxy: Another option is to use a proxy tool like “FlexMonkey” that captures Flex application actions and events and translates them into Selenium-friendly commands. This way, you can automate a Flex application through Selenium WebDriver by running it through the proxy.
Custom Automation Framework: You can build your own automation framework that combines Selenium WebDriver with other automation libraries, such as FlexPilot or FlexUISelenium, which enable you to interact with Flex components programmatically.
Before choosing an approach, consider the compatibility of the tools with your specific Flex application version and its development environment. Additionally, check the availability of documentation and community support for the chosen tool to ensure a smooth automation process.
