Example Selenium scripts

The following Selenium scripts demonstrate how to record a script you can use with Veracode Dynamic Analysis.

Use the script examples as templates

To use these scripts as a template:

1. Copy all JSON from the example.
2. Paste the JSON into a text file.
3. Save the text file with the .side extension.
4. Open the SIDE file in the Selenium IDE or a text editor.
5. Update the commands and values or add commands.

Example script 1

The following script demonstrates signing in to a web application where the username and password fields are on the same page.

The script commands run in the following order:

• Opens the URL for the web application.
• Waits for the sign-in page to load.
• Enters the username.
• Enters the password.
• Selects the sign-in button to sign in.
• Waits for an element to load, which indicates successful sign in.
