Releasing HTML DOM Verifier API for the QA Community

When we automate web UI there is a huge challenge for us to know what elements are modified/added or removed. Most of the automation scripts fail due to this. So the best thing is to know in advance what are these changes and rectify them before execution.

The HTML DOM Verifier API lets us know about this. It allows us to know what elements have changed given the URL of the page.

To download the API use the following link

Next add the dependencies to your POM.xml file

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>itextpdf</artifactId>
    <version>5.5.13</version>

</dependency>

Thereafter add the downloaded JAR file to your test automation project

Import the class used in the API

import org.kushan.html.*;

Call the API method in a test scenario as follows

  DOMVerify dv = new DOMVerify();

	   dv.CheckDOMChanges("https://demo.guru99.com/V4/", "data1.html", "Report1.pdf");

//URL - URL of the web page 
// The base HTML page
// Report name 

After each call a report will be generated in PDF with the given name

Please note that further features will be added to this API in future.
