Highlights of this release

Update from ScalaWebTest < 3.0.0

For #12 we redesigned our configurations and replaced IntegrationSettings.host and IntegrationSetting.projectRoot with the method Configuration.useBaseUri(uri: String), which can be accessed as config.useBaseUri(uri). In your tests replace the following or similar

override val host = my.server:8080
override val projectRoot = "/myapp"
with
config.useBaseUri("http://my.server:8080/myapp")
A similar redesign was done for the Login. Instead of Login.loginPath there is now a LoginConfiguration.useLoginUri(uri: String) method. In your tests replace the following or similar
override val loginPath = "/login"
with
loginConfig.useLoginUri("http://my.server:8080/login")
All extension points now take a org.scalatest.ConfigMap parameter. You have to adapt the signature of beforeLogin, login, afterLogin, as well as beforeAll and afterAll accordingly. For example
override def login(): Unit =
now has to be changed to
override def login(configMap: ConfigMap): Unit =

With #90 we removed org.scalawebtest.core.gauge.Gauge (which was deprecated since 1.1.0). Simply replace your import with org.scalawebtest.core.gauge.HtmlGauge.

Configuration can be provided via Runner arguments or environment variables

With #12 we added the ability to configure ScalaWebTest via Runner arguments or environment variables. The latter is especially useful when using docker. config.baseUri can be overwritten by runner argument scalawebtest.base.uri or environment variable SCALAWEBTEST_BASE_URI. The same is true for loginConfig.loginUri with scalawebtest.base.uri and SCALAWEBTEST_BASE_URI

Any Selenium WebDriver can be used

HtmlUnit remains the default WebDriver. It is the best way to start, because no additional setup on the host is required. For JavaScript heavy applications, HtmlUnit is not the best solution. Chrome support is part of ScalaWebTest, for other WebDrivers one might take inspiration from our Chrome implementation. To use Chrome, extend org.scalawebtest.core.browser.SeleniumChrome and provide the path to the ChromeDriver via run argument webdriver.chrome.driver or the environment variable WEBDRIVER_CHROME_DRIVER. Alternatively you may start the Chrome Driver Service yourself and provide webdriver.chrome.driver.service.url respectively WEBDRIVER_CHROME_DRIVER_SERVICE_URL. Additionally the Webdriver arguments can be changed with webdriver.chrome.arguments respectively WEBDRIVER_CHROME_ARGUMENTS

Support Scala 2.13, drop support for Scala 2.10

With #72 we added support for Scala 2.13 and dropped support for Scala 2.10

Accessor methods for HTTP Response Code and Response Headers

With HtmlUnit we have access to Response Code and Response Headers. With #21 we addd convenience methods to access this information via org.scalawebtest.core.ResponseAccessors. As this information is not available over the WebDriver API, this feature can only be used with HtmlUnit. It is no problem to use multiple browsers in one set of integration tests.

Improved readability with currentPage

With #83 we added the currentPage keyword. This allows to rewrite tests from.

import org.scalawebtest.core.gauge.HtmlGauge._

"Homepage" should "contain a title" in {
    fits(<h1>title</h1>)
}
to
"Homepage" should "contain a title" in {
   currentPage fits <h1>title</h1>
}
Please notice that not only the text flow is improved, but additionally we can get rid of the parentheses around our gauge definition. Also the import of HtmlGauge is no longer needed.
