Reset to default 5What you have written as the first function is not something that you can call or invoke. describe
is a global Jasmine function that is used to group test specs to create a test suite, in an explanatory/human readable way. You have to write a function to call it in your test spec or it
. Here's an example -
//Write your function in the same file where test specs reside
function clickCandidate(){
element(by.css('i.flaticon-leftarrow48')).click();
//All your code that you want to include that you want to call from test spec
};
Call the function defined above in your test spec -
it('Click on candidate status Screened', function () {
//Call the first function
clickCandidate();
});
You can also write this function in a page object file and then invoke it from your test spec. Here's an example -
//Page object file - newPage.js
newPage = function(){
function clickCandidate(){
//All your code that you want to call from the test spec
});
};
module.exports = new newPage();
//Test Spec file - test.js
var newPage = require('./newPage.js'); //Write the location of your javascript file
it('Click on candidate status Screened', function () {
//Call the function
newPage.clickCandidate();
});
Hope it helps.
