public class VerifyXPath
extends AbstractVerifyTextStep

A webtest verify step that evaluates XPath expressions.

This step can either simply verify that an xpath is true, or that it matches something in particular. In keeping with XSLT parlance, the test attribute chooses the first mode and the select attribute chooses the second. If the select attribute exists, a value attribute must also exist which contains the expected value.

Method Detail

setText

public void setText(String text)

Overrides:

setText in class AbstractVerifyTextStep

Parameters:

text -

getXpath

public String getXpath()

setXpath

public void setXpath(String xpath)

verifyParameters

protected void verifyParameters()

Description copied from class: Step

Called to let the step's implementation validate its parameters. The method is called after parameter extensions but before Step.doExecute(). This implementation does nothing, overwrite as needed.

Overrides:

verifyParameters in class AbstractVerifyTextStep

doExecute

public void doExecute()
               throws javax.xml.xpath.XPathException

Description copied from class: Step

Called to perform the step's functionality. Before calling this method, the step has been completely initialized (including expanding and verifying the parameters) and the environment notified of the start.

Specified by:

doExecute in class Step

Throws:

javax.xml.xpath.XPathException

isComparingPathAndValue

protected boolean isComparingPathAndValue()

verifyXPath

protected void verifyXPath()
                    throws javax.xml.xpath.XPathException,
                           StepFailedException

Throws:

javax.xml.xpath.XPathException
