What is Page Object Model or POM?
Hello Tom-dale,
Page Object Model (POM) is a design pattern in Selenium. A design pattern is a solution or a set of standards that are used for solving commonly occurring software problems.
Now coming to POM – POM helps to create a framework for maintaining selenium scripts. In POM for each page of the application, a class is created having the web elements belonging to the page and methods handling the events on that page. The test scripts are maintained in separate files and the methods of the page object files are called from the test scripts file.
In this way, we can create a robust automation framework using POM.
