Dependencies versions updates only.

• Updated versions of Selenium (3.11.0) and other libs.

• Added support for EventFiringWebDriver

  • Example:

  $.driver().useHtmlUnit().withWebDriverEventListener(new AbstractWebDriverEventListener() {
      @Override
      public void beforeNavigateTo(String url, WebDriver driver) {
          openedUrl.set(url);
      }
  });

  • Credits and thanks to @gmkumar2005

Highlights

Automatic (.exe) driver download! Automatic driver quit! Headless for Chrome and Firefox:

$.driver()
    .useChrome()
    .headless() // configures chrome to be headless
    .autoDriverDownload() // automatically downloads and configures chromedriver.exe
    .autoQuitDriver(); // automatically quits the driver when the JVM shuts down

Assertions: Created $().assertThat(). Any function that is available for .waitUntil() is also available for asserting:

$("#resultStats").assertThat().text().containsIgnoreCase("seconds");

Improved waiting: Dramatically improved $().waitUntil() inner-workings and error messages:

$("#foo").waitUntil().size().isGreaterThan(5);

// When failing, it will now show:
//
// Timeout while waiting for $("#foo").waitUntil().size().isGreaterThan(5).
// 
// expected: <size() to be greater than 5>
// but: <last size() was 2>

And much more. See below.

Dependencies:

• Updated Selenium to 3.8.1 and more...

Many more, check 0.18.0 milestone:
https://github.com/seleniumQuery/seleniumQuery/milestone/15?closed=1

Go get it:

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.github.seleniumquery</groupId>
    <artifactId>seleniumquery</artifactId>
    <version>0.18.0</version>
</dependency>

Noteworthy:

• Updated to Selenium 3.8.0 (jdk8)

• Updated htmlunit-driver to 2.27

• Added Chrome headless mode:

  $.driver().useChrome().withHeadlessMode();
  

Other changes

• Created SeleniumQuery.seleniumQueryBrowser() to get the SeleniumQueryBrowser instance used by the global SeleniumQuery.$ field.
• Update some dependencies, such as commons-lang3 from 3.5 to 3.6, as well as added commons-text 1.1.
• Removed htmlunit's $.driver().useHtmlUnit().emulatingInternetExplorer8(), $.driver().useHtmlUnit().emulatingInternetExplorer11() and other browsers HtmlUnit does not emulate anymore.
• Removed $.browser.function()s
  • The new place for the functions that were in $.browser.FUNCTION is either $.FUNCTION or $.driver().FUNCTION.
  • In other words, the function $.browser.function() will either be $.function() or $.driver().function().
• Removed BrowserFunctionsWithDeprecatedFunctions (class that held that attribute while it was deprecated)

Noteworthy changes:

• Updated Selenium to 2.53.1
• Tweaked .val()'s behavior on non-editable elements:
  • Warning is no longer issued.
  • It attempts to clear element, if not possible, it no longer throws exception (in other words, the clearing is a best-effort operation).
  • Even if clearing did not work, it stills types the keys. If the driver throws an exception here, it is not suppressed.

Noteworthy changes:

• Added $().dblclick() function
• Improved debug/error messages for $().waitUntil()

See the full list of changes here.

Noteworthy changes:

Noteworthy changes:

• Added $().each(<function>).
• Updated selenium to 2.51.0.
• Improved error messages for $().waitUntil().text().isLessThan(<number>).
