Hi,
The proposal is to make all click methods be named click*() in UI functional tests.
For example in ViewPage, instead of:
public LoginPage login()
{
this.loginLink.click();
return new LoginPage();
}
We would have:
public LoginPage clickLogin()
{
this.loginLink.click();
return new LoginPage();
}
Right now we have some methods starting with click and other not following this pattern,
the idea is to homogeneize it.
WDYT?
Thanks

+1 makes it a lot easier to understand what it does
Thanks

+1 as well. We need UI-tests to be consistent as much as possible.

-0, the fact that you have to click on a button/link in order to login
is an implementation detail IMO. The page object (ViewPage) should hide
this. It may be fine for "click", but I wouldn't like to change the name
of a page object method (an API) whenever the underlying user
interface/interaction changes.
Thanks,
Marius

* The PageObject strategy is to **mimick** the UI. So if the UI is changed from a button
click to something else it's normal to change the PageObject too
* I gave an example just to show that login() is not correct. It's not logging the
user in. It's simply clicking on the login button to display the login page. Another
possible name would be: getLoginPage() or gotoLoginPage() but click is more clear about
what it does since there are several ways to go to the login page (can be by using the URL
directly for example).

I don't agree with you, it's an implementation details when the
purpose of the test is not to validate login UI but the proposal here
is not about TestUtils.

+1 only for when the method does nothing more than click on an element
and wait for some conditions to be met. If the method does something
else as well, then it should have a name that describes the whole
process or the end result.
