The Selenium WebDriver is a popular open-source tool for web-based application automation testing. It supports a cross-operating system, cross-device and cross-browser tests. Also, it allows you to code using multiple programming languages, such as Python, Java, Ruby, PHP, Perl, and more!

PHP is a popular programming language for server-side programming. As of January 2021, research indicates that 79% of websites are developed in PHP. Did you know that PHP is used in web test automation as well?

This article discusses how you can use PHP to create web test automation. It mentions the basics around the Selenium-PHP combination. Also, it lists some popular automation testing tools that your software development company can use in their project.

Full text search is supported in Mongo by using a text index. Text indexes can include any field whose value is a string, or an array of string elements, to which you can give weights. For a text index, the weight of an indexed field denotes the significance of the field relative to the other indexed fields in terms of the text search score.

db.snippets.createIndex(
  {
    title: "text",
    tags: "text",
    "codeSnippets.comment": "text",
    "codeSnippets.code": "text",
    sourceUrl: "text"
  },
  {
    weights: {
      title: 8,
      tags: 13,
      "codeSnippets.comment": 3,
      "codeSnippets.code": 1,
      sourceUrl: 1
    },
    name: "full_text_search",
    default_language: "none",
    language_override: "none"
  }
);

For each indexed field in the document, MongoDB multiplies the number of matches by the weight and sums the results. Using this sum, MongoDB then calculates the score for the document. You then can use the $meta operator for details on returning and sorting by text scores, as in the snippet below:

let getPublicBookmarksForSearchedTerms = async function (nonSpecialSearchTerms, page, limit, sort, specialSearchFilters, searchInclude) {

  let filter = {
    public: true
  }

  if ( nonSpecialSearchTerms.length > 0 ) {
    if(searchInclude === 'any') {
      filter.$text = {$search: nonSpecialSearchTerms.join(' ')}
    } else {
      filter.$text = {$search: bookmarksSearchHelper.generateFullSearchText(nonSpecialSearchTerms)};
    }
  }

  addSpecialSearchFiltersToMongoFilter(specialSearchFilters, filter);

  let sortBy = {};
  if ( sort === 'newest' ) {
    sortBy.createdAt = -1;
  } else {
    sortBy.score = {$meta: "textScore"}
  }

  let bookmarks = await Bookmark.find(
    filter,
    {
      score: {$meta: "textScore"}
    }
  )
    .sort(sortBy)
    .skip((page - 1) * limit)
    .limit(limit)
    .lean()
    .exec();

  return bookmarks;
}

To perform a text search query on the text index of a collection, you need to use the $text operator. In the example below the results are sorted in order of relevance score, which you must explicitly project to the $meta textScore field and sort on it:

let getPersonalBookmarksForSearchedTerms = async function (nonSpecialSearchTerms, page, limit, userId, specialSearchFilters, searchInclude) {

  let filter = {userId: userId};
  if ( nonSpecialSearchTerms.length > 0 ) {
    if ( searchInclude === 'any' ) {
      filter.$text = {$search: nonSpecialSearchTerms.join(' ')}
    } else {
      filter.$text = {$search: bookmarksSearchHelper.generateFullSearchText(nonSpecialSearchTerms)};
    }
  }
  addSpecialSearchFiltersToMongoFilter(specialSearchFilters, filter);

  let bookmarks = await Bookmark.find(
    filter,
    {
      score: {$meta: "textScore"}
    }
  )
    .sort({score: {$meta: "textScore"}})
    .skip((page - 1) * limit)
    .limit(limit)
    .lean()
    .exec();

  return bookmarks;
}

By default, the full text search in Mongo looks for any of the terms, so a query of “java exception” will look for the bookmarks that container java or exception. You can force an AND search by using the terms in double quotes, so the query text would be "java" "exception". This is what the following generateFullSearchText function does for terms that you do not want excluded (To exclude a word in mongo, you can prepend a “-” character):

let generateFullSearchText = function (nonSpecialSearchTerms) {
  let termsQuery = '';
  nonSpecialSearchTerms.forEach(searchTerm => {
    if ( searchTerm.startsWith('-') ) {
      termsQuery += ' ' + searchTerm;
    } else { //wrap it in quotes to make it a default AND in search
      termsQuery += ' "' + searchTerm.substring(0, searchTerm.length) + '"';
    }
  });

  return termsQuery.trim();
};

Use the mongo cursor skip method with offset in combination with the limit method:

let getPersonalBookmarksForSearchFilter = async function (filter, pageNumber, nPerPage) {

  let bookmarks = await Bookmark.find(
    filter,
    {
      score: {$meta: "textScore"}
    }
  )
    .sort({score: {$meta: "textScore"}})
    .skip(pageNumber > 0 ? ((pageNumber - 1) * nPerPage) : 0)
    .limit(nPerPage)
    .lean()
    .exec();

  return bookmarks;
}

Use the sort and limit methods. In the following example we receive the latest 30 (limit) created bookmarks (sort descending by createdAt date) :

let getLastCreatedBookmarks = async (userId) => {
  const bookmarks = await Bookmark.find({userId: userId})
    .sort({createdAt: -1}) // -1 for descending sort
    .limit(30);

  return bookmarks;
};
