# Selenium::Remote::Driver

[Selenium WebDriver][1] is an open source project that exposes an API
for browser automation. Selenium::Remote::Driver is a set of
Perl bindings to that API that allow you to write automated browser
tests in Perl, taking advantage of Selenium's strong ecosystem.

## Installation

    cpanm Selenium::Remote::Driver

To install from this repository, clone the repo, get Dist::Zilla, and:

    dzil installdeps --missing | cpanm
    dzil install

## Usage

You'll need a Remote WebDriver Server running somewhere. You can
download a [selenium-standalone-server.jar][j] and run one locally, or
you can point your job at Saucelabs and let them handle the Remote
WebDriver.

### Locally

    use Selenium::Remote::Driver;

    my $driver = Selenium::Remote::Driver->new;
    $driver->get('http://www.google.com');
    print $driver->get_title();
    $driver->quit();

## Unit Tests

This module uses LWP::Protocol::PSGI to facilitate unit
tests. LWP::Protocol::PSGI overrides the LWP HTTP/HTTPS & this allows
us to "mock" the interaction with WebDriver Server. In regular
instances you should be running the tests against the mocked
recording, which are stored in t/mock-recordings. If you want to run
the tests live against the WebDriver server, set an environment
variable WD_MOCKING_RECORD to 1. This will force the unit tests to run
tests against the WebDriver server & also save the traffic
(request/response) in t/mock-recordings.  Either reset the environment
variable or set it to 0 to revert to mocking the traffic.
