I followed these steps:
ng new typescript-selenium-example
npm install selenium-webdriver --save
I also made sure to copy chromedriver to my /Application.
I updated the app.component.ts file as shown below:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Builder, By, until } from 'selenium-webdriver';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
constructor() {
var driver = new Builder()
.forBrowser('chrome')
.build();
driver.get('http://www.google.com/ncr')
.then(_ => driver.findElement(By.name('q')).sendKeys('webdriver'))
.then(_ => driver.findElement(By.name('btnG')).click())
.then(_ => driver.wait(until.titleIs('webdriver - Google Search'), 1000))
.then(_ => driver.quit());
console.log('hi');
}
title = 'app works!';
}
However, I encountered the following errors:
