web » assertCssNotPresent(locator,property)

Description

This command asserts the absence of a specific CSS property for a given web element denoted via locator.

Any of the following will result in a FAIL for the corresponding step:

• If the specified web element cannot be found via the locator,
• If the specified CSS property is found for the specified web element,
• If an non-empty value is found for the specified CSS property.

Note that there are a few caveats to consider in terms of CSS property.

• If the CSS property in question is a color property (such as background-color or color), then it’s a good idea to specify it in the RGBA form. For example, instead of specifying green, specify rgba(0, 255, 0, 1) clarifies both the mix of red, green and blue value, as well as the alpha (transparent) value. Here are some online tools to help with the color conversion:
  • Devoth’s HEX 2 RGBA Color Calculator
  • RapidTables
• Shorthand CSS properties (e.g. background, font, border, border-top, margin, margin-top, padding, padding-top, list-style, outline, pause, cue), while are supported, might result in cross-browser incompatibility. The support for some of these CSS shorthands are not uniform across browser and some of them are still under review. Use the CSS longhand, like background-color, instead of background. To determine the longhand CSS properties, check out this article:
  • Expand CSS shorthand properties
• Nexial currently does not support automatic unit conversion, such as “px” to “em”, or “pt” to “in”. One must use extra care when dealing with CSS properties that use measurement units.

Parameters
