Selenium IDE - Flow control and Looping statements

Selenium IDE - Flow control and Looping statements

Selenium IDE does not support Flow control and Looping statements like While,Goto directly.
So to achieve flow control and looping in Selenium IDE  goto_sel_ide.js  user extensions have to be added in Selenium Core Extensions.

User extension goto_sel_ide.js can be downloaded form here.

Adding Selenium Core Extensions:

To add user exstension in Selenium , goto Options >> Options >> Selenium Core extensions
Browse goto_sel_ide.js  file from  local disk and click ok.

After adding goto_sel_ide.js we can see while goto statements in the command list of the IDE.




Now lets see a simple While loop script :

We can use store command to save the initial value in variable counter.
Then in While we can use the value of counter  via Storedvars and compare against any  vlaue or vairable if required as shown below.

Before endWhile the value of  counter needs to be increased whcih can be done in a javascript code enclosed in braces.

Command	Target	Value
store	0	counter
while	storedVars.counter<3
Other statements
store	javascript{storedVars.counter++;}
endWhile

Sample script for While loop in Selenium IDE :
