About this Presentation

Geb is a browser automation solution for Groovy. It brings together the power of WebDriver, the elegance of jQuery content selection, the robustness of Page Object modelling and the expressiveness of the Groovy language. Geb enables more expressive, more concise, and (very importantly) more maintainable web tests.

In this session we'll go beyond an introduction and explore how to take advantage of Geb's advanced features to functionally test modern rich, dynamic, web applications. We'll also explore some common patterns and best practices for Page Object modelling that lead to robust tests with a high level of reuse. Finally we'll discuss cross browser testing strategies and explore the options for testing mobile device targeted sites. A basic understanding of Geb is required for this session.
