python 2.7 - Simplifying Long List of `if` Statements -
i have lot of page objects application testing. page object have of elements on page. writing validate_fields method on each page object when tester navigates page, can call validate_fields method verify of items supposed on page in fact on page.
the problem running validate_fields function can really long, , bunch of
if not x.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the item x missing page") with problems being list of problems assert empty @ end of our test.
below code sample, there way simplify this?
def validate_fields(self): if not self.el_page_header.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the page header missing") if not self.el_preferred.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the preferred check box missing") if not self.el_address.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the address 1 field missing") if not self.el_address_2.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the address 2 field missing") if not self.el_address_3_city.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the address 3 city field missing") if not self.el_address_4_state.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the address 4 state field missing") if not self.el_address_5_zip_code.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the address 5 zip code field missing") if not self.el_contact.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the contact field missing") if not self.el_phone.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the phone field missing") if not self.el_phone_ext.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the phone extension field missing") if not self.el_fax.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the fax number field missing") ...
you put widgets along human-readable name list:
def validate_fields(self): widgets = [(self.el_page_header, "page header"), (self.el_preferred, "preferred check box"), ... , many more... ] widget, name in widgets: if not widget.is_displayed(): self.problems.append("the %s missing" % name)
