writing new splinter driversΒΆ

The process of creating a new splinter browser is really simple: you just need to implement a TestCase (extending tests.base. BaseBrowserTests) and make all tests green.

Here is an example: imagine you’re creating the Columbia driver, you would add the test_columbia.py file containing some code like this:

from splinter import Browser
from tests.base import BaseBrowserTests

class ColumbiaTest(BaseBrowserTests):

    @classmethod
    def setUpClass(cls):
        cls.browser = Browser('columbia')

    # ...

Now, to make the test green, you need to implement methods provided by the DriverAPI and the ElementAPI.

Use make test to run the tests:

$ make test which=tests/test_columbia.py
