Selenium Cucumber BDD Framework with Java and TestNG | Page Factory

Hello Everyone, welcome back, I'm Raghavendra Mishra and I welcome you all, In this video, We will learn how to use Page Factory design pattern in Cucumber.

Page Factory is a built in class provided by Selenium WebDriver and an extension of the Page Object Model that simplifies the initialization of web elements in the page classes. It's part of the Selenium framework and helps reduce the boiler plate code for element initialization.

In Page Factory, The initElements method is used to initialize web elements and testers use `@FindBy`, `@FindAll`, or `@FindBys` to find web elements on the page classes and perform actions on them.

In my previous video, I have already demonstrated how POM works. In this video, we will implement Factory design Pattern.

Advantages of Page Factory:

Reduces code redundancy: Element initialization code is centralized in the page class.
Enhances code readability: Test scripts are cleaner and focus on test logic.
Promotes a modular approach: Page Factory encourages better organization of web elements.

In summary, both Page Object Model and Page Factory are essential concepts in Selenium automation for building maintainable and efficient test automation frameworks. Page Factory can be considered an enhancement of POM that simplifies the initialization of web elements. The choice between them depends on your specific requirements and coding preferences.
