C#/.NET web UI test automation full-featured framework based on Selenium WebDriver. It uses a fluent page object pattern; has a built-in logging system; contains a unique triggers functionality; has a set of ready-to-use components. One of the key ideas of the framework is to provide a simple and intuitive syntax for defining and using page objects. A page object implementation requires as less code as possible. You can describe a page object class without any methods and only have a set of properties marked with attributes representing page components.
The package targets .NET Standard 2.0, which supports .NET 5+, .NET Framework 4.6.1+ and .NET Core/Standard 2.0+.
- WebDriver. Based on Selenium WebDriver and preserves all its features.
- Page object model. Provides a unique fluent page object pattern, which is easy to implement and maintain.
- Components. Contains a rich set of ready-to-use components for inputs, tables, lists, etc.
- Integration. Works on any .NET test engine (e.g. NUnit, xUnit, SpecFlow) as well as on CI systems like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or TeamCity.
- Triggers. A bunch of triggers to bind with different events to extend component behavior.
- Verification. A set of fluent assertion methods and triggers for a component and data verification.
- Configurable. Defines the default component search strategies as well as additional settings. Atata.Configuration.Json provides flexible JSON configurations.
- Reporting/Logging. Built-in customizable logging; screenshots and snapshots capturing functionality.
- Extensible. Atata.HtmlValidation adds HTML page validation. Atata.Bootstrap and Atata.KendoUI provide extra components.
Simple sign-in page object for https://demo.atata.io/signin page:
using Atata;
namespace SampleApp.UITests
{
using _ = SignInPage;
[Url("signin")] // Relative URL of the page.
[VerifyH1] // Verifies that H1 header text equals "Sign In" upon page object initialization.
public class SignInPage : Page<_>
{
[FindByLabel] // Finds <label> element containing "Email" (<label for="email">Email</label>), then finds text <input> element by "id" that equals label's "for" attribute value.
public TextInput<_> Email { get; private set; }
[FindById("password")] // Finds password <input> element by id that equals "password" (<input id="password" type="password">).
public PasswordInput<_> Password { get; private set; }
[FindByValue(TermCase.Title)] // Finds button element by value that equals "Sign In" (<input value="Sign In" type="submit">).
public Button<_> SignIn { get; private set; }
}
}Usage in the test method:
[Test]
public void SignIn()
{
Go.To<SignInPage>()
.Email.Set("[email protected]")
.Password.Set("abc123")
.SignIn.Click();
}[SetUp]
public void SetUp()
{
AtataContext.Configure()
.UseChrome()
.UseBaseUrl("https://demo.atata.io/")
.Build();

Demo atata-framework/atata-sample-app-tests UI tests application demonstrates different testing approaches and features of Atata Framework. It covers main Atata features: page navigation, data input and verification, interaction with pop-ups and tables, logging, screenshot capture, etc.
Sample test:
[Test]
public void Create()
{
Login()
.New()
.ModalTitle.Should.Be("New User")
.General.FirstName.SetRandom(out string firstName)
.General.LastName.SetRandom(out string lastName)
.General.Email.SetRandom(out string email)
.General.Office.SetRandom(out Office office)
.General.Gender.SetRandom(out Gender gender)
.Save()
.GetUserRow(email).View()
.AggregateAssert(x => x
.Header.Should.Be($"{firstName} {lastName}")
.Email.Should.Be(email)
.Office.Should.Be(office)
.Gender.Should.Be(gender)
.Birthday.Should.Not.Exist()
.Notes.Should.Not.Exist());

Atata Framework tries to follow Semantic Versioning 2.0 when possible. Sometimes Selenium.WebDriver dependency package can contain breaking changes in minor version releases, so those changes can break Atata as well. But Atata manages its sources according to SemVer. Thus backward compatibility is mostly followed and updates within the same major version (e.g. from 2.1 to 2.2) should not require code changes.
