Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Create a separate module called something like Selenium3 with the same folder structures."

A block of code is set as follows:

public abstract class BrowserBasePO <M extends WebElement> {
    public int elementWait = Global_VARS.TIMEOUT_ELEMENT;
    public String pageTitle = "";
    WebDriver driver = CreateDriver.getInstance().getDriver();

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

public abstract class MobileBasePO <M extends MobileElement> {
    public int elementWait = Global_VARS.TIMEOUT_ELEMENT;
    public String pageTitle = "";
    AppiumDriver<MobileElement> driver =

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "This is a basic concept in Java called encapsulation."
