class cfme.web_ui.BootstrapTreeview(tree_id)[source]

Bases: object

A class representing the Bootstrap treeview used in newer builds.

Implements expand_path, click_path, read_contents. All are implemented in manner very similar to the original Tree.

Parameters:tree_id – Id of the tree, the closest div to the root ul element.
CHILD_ITEMS = './ul/li[starts-with(@data-nodeid, {id}) and count(./span[contains(@class, "indent")])={indent}]'

check_node(*path, **kwargs)[source]

Expands the passed path and checks a checkbox that is located at the node.

check_uncheck_node(check, *path, **kwargs)[source]
child_items(item=None)[source]
child_items_with_text(item, text)[source]
click_path(*path, **kwargs)[source]

Expands the path and clicks the leaf node.

See expand_path() for more informations about synopsis.

collapse_node(nodeid)[source]

Collapses a node given its nodeid. Must be visible

Parameters:nodeidnodeId of the node
Returns:True if it was possible to expand the node, otherwise False.
expand_node(nodeid)[source]

Expands a node given its nodeid. Must be visible

Parameters:nodeidnodeId of the node
Returns:True if it was possible to expand the node, otherwise False.
expand_path(*path, **kwargs)[source]

Expands given path and returns the leaf node.

The path items can be plain strings. In that case, exact string matching happens. Path items can also be compiled regexps, where the match method is used to determine if the node is the one we want. And finally, the path items can be 2-tuples, where the second item can be the string or regular expression and the first item is the image to be matched using image_getter() method.

Parameters:*path – The path (explained above)
Returns:The leaf WebElement.
Raises:exceptions.CandidateNotFound when the node is not found in the tree.
find_path_to(target, exact=False)[source]

Method used to look up the exact path to an item we know only by its regexp or partial description.

Expands whole tree during the execution.

Parameters:
  • target – Item searched for. Can be regexp made by re.compile, otherwise it is taken as a string for in matching.
  • exact – Useful in string matching. If set to True, it matches the exact string. Default is False.

Returns: list with path to that item.

classmethod validate_node(node, matcher, image)[source]
class cfme.web_ui.CachedTableHeaders(table)[source]

Bases: object

the internal cache of headers

This allows columns to be moved and the Table updated. The headers stores the header cache element and the list of headers are stored in _headers. The attribute header_indexes is then created, before finally creating the items attribute.

class cfme.web_ui.Calendar(name)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

A CFME calendar form field

Calendar fields are readonly, and managed by the dxhtmlCalendar widget. A Calendar field will accept any object that can be coerced into a string, but the value may not match the format expected by dhtmlxCalendar or CFME. For best results, either a datetime.date or datetime.datetime object should be used to create a valid date field.

Parameters:name – “name” property of the readonly calendar field.

Usage:

calendar = web_ui.Calendar("miq_date_1")
web_ui.fill(calendar, date(2000, 1, 1))
web_ui.fill(calendar, '1/1/2001')

Returns:Selenium element of the cell.
class cfme.web_ui.Form(fields=None, identifying_loc=None)[source]

Bases: cfme.web_ui.Region

A class for interacting with Form elements on pages.

The Form class takes a set of locators and binds them together to create a unified Form object. This Form object has a defined field order so that the user does not have to worry about which order the information is provided. This enables the data to be provided as a dict meaning it can be passed directly from yamls. It inherits the base Region class, meaning that locators can still be referenced in the same way a Region’s locators can. You can also add one more field which will be a dict of metadata, determining mostly field validity. See field_valid()

Parameters:
  • fields – A list of field name/locator tuples. The argument not only defines the order of the elements but also which elements comprise part of the form.
  • identifying_loc – A locator which should be present if the form is visible.

Usage:

provider_form = web_ui.Form(
    fields=[
        ('type_select', "//*[@id='server_emstype']"),
        ('name_text', "//*[@id='name']"),
        ('hostname_text', "//*[@id='hostname']"),
        ('ipaddress_text', "//*[@id='ipaddress']"),
        ('amazon_region_select', "//*[@id='hostname']"),
        ('api_port', "//*[@id='port']"),
    ])

Forms can then be filled in like so.:

provider_info = {
   'type_select': "OpenStack",
   'name_text': "RHOS-01",
   'hostname_text': "RHOS-01",
   'ipaddress_text': "10.0.0.0",
   'api_port': "5000",
}
web_ui.fill(provider_form, provider_info)

Note

Using supertuples in a list, although ordered due to the properties of a List, will not overide the field order defined in the Form.

field_valid(field_name)[source]

Add the validity constraints here.

fill(fill_data)[source]
pretty_attrs = ['fields']
class cfme.web_ui.InfoBlock(title)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

Class designed to handle things about <input> tags that have name attr in one place.

Also applies on textarea, which is basically input with multiple lines (if it has name).

Parameters:*names – Possible values (or) of the name attribute.
Keywords:
use_id: Whether to use id instead of name. Useful if there is some input that does
not have name attribute present.

class cfme.web_ui.PagedTable(table_locator, header_offset=0, body_offset=0, hidden_locator=None)[source]

Bases: cfme.web_ui.Table

Table with support for paginator

Parameters:
  • table_locator – See cfme.web_ui.Table
  • header_checkbox_locator – Locator of header checkbox (default None) Specify in case the header checkbox is not part of the header row
  • body_checkbox_locator – Locator for checkboxes in body rows
  • header_offset – See cfme.web_ui.Table
  • body_offset – See cfme.web_ui.Table
find_row_by_cell_on_all_pages(cells)[source]

Find the first row containing cells on all pages

Parameters:cells – See Table.find_rows_by_cells()

Returns: The first matching row found on any page

find_row_on_all_pages(header, value)[source]
class cfme.web_ui.Region(locators=None, title=None, identifying_loc=None, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

Base class for all UI regions/pages

Parameters:
  • locators – A dict of locator objects for the given region
  • title – A string containing the title of the page, or a versioned dict of page title strings
  • identifying_loc – Single locator key from locators used by Region.is_displayed() to check if the region is currently visible

Usage:

page = Region(locators={
    'configuration_button': (By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.dhx_toolbar_btn[title='Configuration']"),
    'discover_button': (By.CSS_SELECTOR,
        "tr[title='Discover Cloud Providers']>td.td_btn_txt>" "div.btn_sel_text")
    },
    title='Cloud Providers',
    identifying_loc='discover_button'
)

The elements can then accessed like so:

page.configuration_button

Locator attributes will return the locator tuple for that particular element, and can be passed on to other functions, such as element() and click().

Note

When specifying a region title, omit the “Cloudforms Management Engine: ” or “ManageIQ: ” prefix. They are included on every page, and different for the two versions of the appliance, and is_displayed() strips them off before checking for equality.

is_displayed()[source]

Checks to see if the region is currently displayed.

Returns: A boolean describing if the region is currently displayed

pretty_attrs = ['title']
title
class cfme.web_ui.Table(table_locator, header_offset=0, body_offset=0, hidden_locator=None)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

Helper class for Table/List objects

Turns CFME custom Table/Lists into iterable objects using a generator.

Parameters:
  • table_locator – locator pointing to a table element with child thead and tbody elements representing that table’s header and body row containers
  • header_offset – In the case of a padding table row above the header, the row offset can be used to skip rows in <thead> to locate the correct header row. This offset is 1-indexed, not 0-indexed, so an offset of 1 is the first child row element
  • body_offset – In the case of a padding table row above the body rows, the row offset can be used to skip rows in <ttbody> to locate the correct header row. This offset is 1-indexed, not 0-indexed, so an offset of 1 is the first child row element
  • hidden_locator – If the table can disappear, you probably want ot set this param as it instructs the table that if it cannot find the table on the page but the element represented by hidden_locator is visible, it assumes no data and returns no rows.
header_indexes

A dict of header names related to their int index as a column.

Usage:

table = Table('//div[@id="prov_pxe_img_div"]//table')

The HTML code for the table looks something like this:

<div id="prov_pxe_img_div">
  <table>
      <thead>
          <tr>
              <th>Name</th>
              <th>Animal</th>
              <th>Size</th>
          </tr>
      </thead>
      <tbody>
          <tr>
              <td>John</td>
              <td>Monkey</td>
              <td>Small</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
              <td>Mike</td>
              <td>Tiger</td>
              <td>Large</td>
          </tr>
      </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

We can now click on an element in the list like so, by providing the column name and the value that we are searching for:

table.click_cell('name', 'Mike')

We can also perform the same, by using the index of the column, like so:

table.click_cell(1, 'Tiger')

Additionally, the rows of a table can be iterated over, and that row’s columns can be accessed by name or index (left to right, 0-index):

for row in table.rows()
    # Get the first cell in the row
    row[0]
    # Get the row's contents for the column with header 'Row Name'
    # All of these will work, though the first is preferred
    row.row_name, row['row_name'], row['Row Name']

When doing bulk opererations, such as selecting rows in a table based on their content, the *_by_cells methods are able to find matching row much more quickly than iterating, as the work can be done with fewer selenium calls.

Note

A table is defined by the containers of the header and data areas, and offsets to them. This allows a table to include one or more padding rows above the header row. In the example above, there is no padding row, as our offset values are set to 0.

class Row(row_element, parent_table)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

An object representing a row in a Table.

The Row object returns a dymanically addressable attribute space so that the tables headers are automatically generated.

Parameters:
  • row_element – A table row WebElement
  • parent_tableTable containing row_element

Notes

Attributes are dynamically generated. The index/key accessor is more flexible than the attr accessor, as it can operate on int indices and header names.

__getattr__(name)[source]

Returns Row element by header name

__getitem__(index)[source]

Returns Row element by header index or name

columns

A list of WebElements corresponding to the <td> elements in this row

locate()[source]
pretty_attrs = ['row_element', 'table']
Table.body

Property representing the <tbody> element that contains body rows

Table.click_cell(header, value)[source]

Clicks on a cell defined in the row.

Uses the header identifier and a value to determine which cell to click on.

Parameters:
  • header – A string or int, describing which column to inspect.
  • value – The value to be compared when trying to identify the correct cell to click the cell in.

Returns: True if item was found and clicked, else False.

Table.click_cells(cell_map)[source]

Submits multiple cells to be clicked on

Parameters:cell_map

A mapping of header names and values, representing cells to click. As an example, {'name': ['wing', 'nut']}, {'age': ['12']} would click on the cells which had wing and nut in the name column and 12 in the age column. The yaml example for this would be as follows:

list_items:
    name:
        - wing
        - nut
    age:
        - 12
Raises:NotAllItemsClicked – If some cells were unable to be found.
Table.click_row_by_cells(cells, click_column=None, partial_check=False)[source]

Click the cell at click_column in the first row matched by cells

Parameters:
Table.click_rows_by_cells(cells, click_column=None, partial_check=False)[source]

Click the cell at click_column in the rows matched by cells

Parameters:
  • cells – See Table.find_rows_by_cells()
  • click_column – Which column in the row to click, defaults to None, which will attempt to click the row element

Note

The value of click_column can be a string or an int, and will be passed directly to the item accessor (__getitem__) for Table.Row

Table.create_row_from_element(row_element)[source]

Given a row element in this table, create a Table.Row

Parameters:row_element – A table row (<tr>) WebElement representing a row in this table.

Returns: A Table.Row for row_element

Table.find_cell(header, value)[source]

Finds an item in the Table by iterating through each visible item, this work used to be done by the :py:meth::click_cell method but has not been abstracted out to be called separately.

Parameters:
  • header – A string or int, describing which column to inspect.
  • value – The value to be compared when trying to identify the correct cell to click.

Returns: WebElement of the element if item was found, else None.

Table.find_row(header, value)[source]

Finds a row in the Table by iterating through each visible item.

Parameters:
  • header – A string or int, describing which column to inspect.
  • value – The value to be compared when trying to identify the correct row to return.
Returns:

Table.Row containing the requested cell, else None.

Table.find_row_by_cells(cells, partial_check=False)[source]

Find the first row containing cells

Parameters:cells – See Table.find_rows_by_cells()

Returns: The first matching row found, or None if no matching row was found

Table.find_rows_by_cells(cells, partial_check=False)[source]

A fast row finder, based on cell content.

If you pass a regexp as a value, then it will be used with its .match() method.

Parameters:
  • cells – A dict of header: value pairs or a sequence of nested (header, value) pairs.
  • partial_check – If to use the in operator rather than ==.
Returns: A list of containing Table.Row objects whose contents
match all of the header: value pairs in cells
Table.header_indexes

Dictionary of header name: column index for this table’s rows

Derived from headers

Table.header_row

Property representing the <tr> element that contains header cells

Table.headers

List of <td> or <th> elements in header_row

Table.locate()[source]
Table.pretty_attrs = ['_loc']
Table.row_count()[source]

Returns row count

Table.rows()[source]

A generator method holding the Row objects

This generator yields Row objects starting at the first data row.

Yields:Table.Row object corresponding to the next row in the table.
Table.rows_as_list()[source]

Returns rows as list

Table.verify_headers()[source]

Verifies whether the headers in the table correspond with the cached ones.

class cfme.web_ui.Tree(locator)[source]

Bases: cfme.utils.pretty.Pretty

A class directed at CFME Tree elements

The Tree class aims to deal with all kinds of CFME trees

Parameters:locator – This is a locator object pointing to the <ul> element which contains the rest of the table.

Returns: A Tree object.

A Tree object is set up by using a locator which contains the node elements. This element will usually be a <ul> in the case of a Dynatree.

Usage:

tree = web_ui.Tree((By.XPATH, '//table//tr[@title="Datastore"]/../..'))

The path can then be navigated to return the last object in the path list, like so:

tree.click_path('Automation', 'VM Lifecycle Management (VMLifecycle)',
    'VM Migrate (Migrate)')

Each path element will be expanded along the way, but will not be clicked.

When used in a Form, a list of path tuples is expected in the form fill data. The paths will be passed individually to Tree.check_node():

form = Form(fields=[
    ('tree_field', List(locator)),
])

form_fill_data = {
    'tree_field': [
        ('Tree Node', 'Value'),
        ('Tree Node', 'Branch Node', 'Value'),
    ]
]

Note: Dynatrees, rely on a <ul><li> setup. We class a <li> as a node.

classmethod browse(tree, *path)[source]
