Vlocity API Testing

Vlocity UI Testing (*Vlocity is now “Salesforce Industries“) comprises JSON components. Thus, when Salesforce parses and displays these Vlocity UI fields, it creates dynamic ‘ng’ locators in the DOM, making it difficult for other automation tools to identify them with the traditional locators. Provar has implemented a unique solution that readily identifies and maps Vlocity UI elements on the page using a custom locator. This makes Vlocity API testing automation simple, maintainable, and more reliable.

Vlocity API Automation Testing

---

Vlocity objects are downloaded and available in the Provar Org Browser. This provides data visibility and allows the tester to create/modify data. This approach can create test data quickly and is ideal for creating seed data for a deterministic test case.

Vlocity UI Testing

Provar Test Builder maps the various Vlocity UI fields by using the By Vlocity Label locator, as shown below:

Vlocity Text Field

---

Vlocity text fields are recognized using By Vlocity Label locator and the Visual force page configured on it.

Vlocity Picklist

---

Vlocity picklists are similarly mapped, and all the options in that picklist are shown. The user can then choose to either set or assert a picklist value from the available options.

Vlocity Lookup

---

Vlocity lookups are different than what we have in Salesforce. It is mostly confused with an SF dropdown menu, but the options shown depend on the value we provide in the filter text box. Provar offers a simple implementation to map Vlocity lookups in which you can specify a filter and select the value in a single step.

Vlocity Checkbox

---

Vlocity checkboxes are mapped using the By Vlocity Label and show interaction types as Check, Uncheck, and Toggle.
