Try to break any locator on html page which using in tests and allow Healenium fix it.
Note: You have to run correct tests before it in order to Healenium can remember successful data.

Question 5

If locators are written in excel, xml or in other files does it update locators there because in normal scenarios locators are written in java file but i am reading the locator value from excel, xml, etc ?

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

Locators may be in any places, for Healenium it doesn't matter. It'll work as well.
But If you use IDEA Plugin to update source locator, you should relocate locators in java classes. 
IDEA Plugin could work only with java files.

Hello JD B,

Thank you for your interest in Healenium library.

We collect unsuccessful results to enhance the healing algorithm and clean up after 1 year. The data is stored in our private repository, nothing to worry about.

Question 10

Is Healenium compatible with javascript and webdriverIO. We are using npm and node docker image in our project and want to integrate Healenium with WDIO. With WDIO7 the protocol for writing findelement is simply $. Can this be handled by Healenium?

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

First off, thank you for your interest in the Healenium library.

Healenium is compatible with webdriverio. But Healenium doesn’t support JavascriptExecutor to healing elements.

Sample Healenium + webdriverio: [https://github.com/healenium/healenium-example-webdriverio](https://github.com/healenium/healenium-example-webdriverio)

Question 11

I have Selenium and webdriverIo installed and while trying to install the Healenium dependency using cmd: npm run @healenium/webdriverio get error E404 '@healenium/webdriverio@*' is not present in npm registry. I have npm v 7.5.3 installed.

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

There is no dependency on js projects. You have to set up Healenium services (w/wo docker) and use RemoteWebDriver with a connection to hlm-proxy in the project. Here you can see the sample: [https://github.com/healenium/healenium-example-webdriverio](https://github.com/healenium/healenium-example-webdriverio)

Question 12

Does Healenium's Auto Healing work UIs with all new front end technologies like react?

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

Kasun,
As Helenium is a Selenium-based framework, it supports all frameworks available for Selenium. And React included.

Question 13

Hi, I am trying to explore solutions for cypress and playwright frameworks. Can Healenium be integrated with either of these frameworks?

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

Playwright and Cypress libraries cannot be used with Selenium for web testing. They employ different protocols and architectures, so you cannot use Healenium with them. Healenium is compatible only with Selenium.

Question 14

Can Healenium support mobile native applications without docker installation? if Yes, please provide a Road map for it, we wanted to give a try with our existing framework.

SolutionsHub Support · Accepted Answer

Yes, Healenium can be integrated with Appium. Setting up Healenium is possible both with Docker and without it. Here, you can review the documentation on configuring Healenium with Appium: [https://healenium.io/docs/download_and_install/hlm_appium](https://healenium.io/docs/download_and_install/hlm_appium)

Question 15

Even after successful execution for  first time, it is not able to heal elements when i modify any xpath.

There is no need to alter the locator within the code, just on the page.
