Core Patterns

Basic Test

describe('Login', () => {
  beforeEach(async () => {
    await browser.get('/login');
  });

  it('should login with valid credentials', async () => {
    await element(by.model('email')).sendKeys('[email protected]');
    await element(by.model('password')).sendKeys('password123');
    await element(by.css('button[type="submit"]')).click();
    expect(await browser.getCurrentUrl()).toContain('/dashboard');
    expect(await element(by.css('.welcome')).getText()).toContain('Welcome');
  });

  it('should show error for invalid credentials', async () => {
    await element(by.model('email')).sendKeys('[email protected]');
    await element(by.model('password')).sendKeys('wrong');
    await element(by.css('button[type="submit"]')).click();
    expect(await element(by.css('.error')).isDisplayed()).toBe(true);
  });
});

Angular-Specific Locators

element(by.model('ctrl.email'));                      // ng-model
element(by.binding('ctrl.username'));                  // Angular binding
element(by.exactBinding('ctrl.name'));                // Exact binding
element(by.repeater('item in items'));                // ng-repeat
element.all(by.repeater('item in items')).count();   // Count repeater
element(by.cssContainingText('.item', 'Active'));     // CSS + text
element(by.buttonText('Submit'));                      // Button text
element(by.partialButtonText('Sub'));                  // Partial text

Page Objects

class LoginPage {
  constructor() {
    this.emailInput = element(by.model('email'));
    this.passwordInput = element(by.model('password'));
    this.loginButton = element(by.css('button[type="submit"]'));
    this.errorMessage = element(by.css('.error'));
  }

  async login(email, password) {
    await this.emailInput.sendKeys(email);
    await this.passwordInput.sendKeys(password);
    await this.loginButton.click();
  }
}

// Usage
const loginPage = new LoginPage();
await loginPage.login('[email protected]', 'password123');
