PDF Validation with UI

Step 2:- Add the steps to the testcase to navigate to the screen where elements are visible which we need to validate in PDF document.

Step 3 :-  Declare the empty variables on Test case writer to save values that are extracted from PDF using custom script.

Step 4:-  Add a custom script to access the data from the PDF document.

Step 5:- Call the custom script to extract values from the PDF.

• In the custom script you can access the data from the PDF, which are further assigned to the variables declared by the user in the previous step.
• Following is the example script to draw out value from the PDF.

try {
            URL url = new URL("https://devtestos.testgrid.io/assets/pdf/ToolsQA.pdf");
            System.out.println("PDFURL2 == :-");
            InputStream is = url.openStream();
            BufferedInputStream fileToParse = new BufferedInputStream(is);
            PDDocument document = null;
            String output = null;
            try {
                document = PDDocument.load(fileToParse);
                output = new org.apache.pdfbox.text.PDFTextStripper().getText(document);

                String lines[] = output.split("\\r?\\n");
         for(int i = 0;i<lines.length;i++){

                    var_ISBNFromPDF =  lines[15];
                    var_TitleFromPDF =  lines[16];
                    var_SubTitleFromPDF =  lines[17];
                    var_AuthorFromPDF =  lines[18];
                    var_TotalPagesFromPDF =  lines[20];

                             System.out.println("line ====== :"+i +"Value of lines" + lines[i]);
                    
                }

           } finally {
                if (document != null) {
                    document.close();
                }
                fileToParse.close();
                is.close();
            }
        }catch (Exception e){

            e.printStackTrace();
        }

• Once the custom script is executed the next step is to take the UI Element values and save them in the variables declared by them.

Step 6:- Declare the variables on the test case writer in which values are retrieved from the UI elements.

Step 7:- Add steps to check if the values retrieved from UI is the same as the value obtained from the PDF.

Step 8:- Click on ‘Save’ to save the testcase.

Step 9:- Once testcase is ready select the testcase and click on ‘Run’.

Step 10:- Enter the URL of the website you want to test and tap ‘Next’.

Step 11:- Select the browser and tap ‘Run Test’.

• As the test case starts to run, you can see the logs of the test case execution.

• You can also see the values printed in logs which are taken out from PDF using custom script.

• If the test run is successfully executed, the user can see the message of “Completed” and “Test success” in the Detailed Log.
