Selenium-Remote-Driver/Changes

Revision history for Selenium-Remote-Driver
0.18   7-26-2013
        [NEW FEATURES]
        - Added a pause() function, that sleeps for the given number of milliseconds, just like
          Test::WWW::Selenium.  https://github.com/aivaturi/Selenium-Remote-Driver/issues/60

        - new() now accepts a 'default_finder' option to allow to you change the default finder, which
          is currently 'xpath'. This will be of interest to those who prefer CSS-style selectors,
          such as jQuery uses.
           https://github.com/aivaturi/Selenium-Remote-Driver/pull/49

        [DOCUMENTATION]
        - Updated ChangeLog to reflect that debug_on() and debug_off() methods were added in 0.16.

        [INTERNALS]
        - Explained why the code does 'use 5.006; use v5.10.0;', and it's not pretty.
           The short version: before perl 5.006, the v-string 'v5.10.0' would not be understood.
           The page http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/369/version-numbers-should-be-boring/
           explains it in much more detail than I can.
           Fortunately, it boils down to this: http://perldoc.perl.org/5.10.0/functions/use.html#use-VERSION

0.11   8-16-2011
  This is quite a large list for this release and will be
  the first cpan release. The later releases will hopefully 
  happen often and won't be quite as large.

        - subroutine calls carp when an error occurs or when
          an element cannot be found
        - if an element cannot be found, carp should tell you
          which line in your local script where the element was
          not found
        - added the following driver api calls
           click,double_click,button_down,button_up,close,status,
           send_modifier,execute_script,execute_async_script

        - fixed the following api calls
           refresh,delete_cookie_named
        - $element->get_value is deprecated...
           subroutine now points to get_attribute('value')
        - added the following element api calls
           describe
        - added initial IDE plugin for the Selenium-IDE
           (this is based off the Rspec webdriver ide plugin)

        - Added "extra_capabilities" named argument to the driver
        - make send_keys accept one or more string argument
        - added javascript method to driver
           (thanks Phil Kania!)

        - fixed issue: check for empty string before trying to decode
        - fixed issue: if script using the module ever forked, the
          driver would call quit whenever that fork was closed
        - fixed issue: Marked as deprecated: WebElement::set_selected
          and WebElement::toggle
        - fixed issue: global $driver variable in WebElement caused the
          remote connection to be destroyed before the driver was able
          to call quit()

        - fixed issues:
          - improper definition of setImplicitWaitTimeout
          - Driver.pm: missing 'css' entry in FINDERS
          - Driver.pm::find_elements: set up $using correctly
            (thanks Phil Mitchell!)

0.10    5-2-2010
        - Implemented support for JSON wire protocol as of a4 release of
        Selenium 2.0.
        - The main Driver & WebElement modules are implemented & functional.
        - Added unit tests for Driver. As of this moment only live testing is
        supported as the server itself is alpha & mocking its behavior doesn't
        help our cause.
        - Added POD for Driver & WebElement
0.01    2-21-2010
        First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
