Instance Method Details

#cast(name) ⇒ Base

The preferred way to create a new page object from the current page’s driver state. Raises a NameError if the page could not be found. If casting causes a StaleElementReferenceError, the method will retry up to 2 more times.

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    see Base.cast

Returns:

  • (Base) —

    The casted page object.

Raises:

  • InvalidPageState if the page cannot be casted to

  • NameError if the page object doesn’t exist

end

#cast_any(*names) ⇒ Base?

Cast the page to any of the listed ‘names`, in order of specification. Returns the first page that accepts the casting, or returns nil, rather than raising InvalidPageState.

Parameters:

  • names (Enumerable<String>) —

    see Base.cast

Returns:

  • (Base, nil) —

    the casted page object, if successful; nil otherwise.

Raises:

  • NameError if the page object doesn’t exist
