Enum Platform

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Platform>
    public enum Platform
extends java.lang.Enum<Platform>
    Represents the known and supported Platforms that WebDriver runs on. This is pretty close to the Operating System, but differs slightly, because this class is used to extract information such as program locations and line endings.

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static Platform[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (Platform c : Platform.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static Platform valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

      • getPartOfOsName

        public java.lang.String[] getPartOfOsName()

        current platform

      • extractFromSysProperty

        public static Platform extractFromSysProperty​(java.lang.String osName)
        Extracts platforms based on system properties in Java and uses a heuristic to determine the most likely operating system. If unable to determine the operating system, it will default to UNIX.

        Returns:
        the most likely platform based on given operating system name

      • extractFromSysProperty

        public static Platform extractFromSysProperty​(java.lang.String osName,
                                              java.lang.String osVersion)
        Extracts platforms based on system properties in Java and uses a heuristic to determine the most likely operating system. If unable to determine the operating system, it will default to UNIX.
        Parameters:
        osName - the operating system name to determine the platform of
        osVersion - the operating system version to determine the platform of
        Returns:
        the most likely platform based on given operating system name and version

      • fromString

        public static Platform fromString​(java.lang.String name)
        Gets a platform with the name matching the parameter.
        Parameters:
        name - the platform name

        the Platform enum value matching the parameter

      • is

        public boolean is​(Platform compareWith)
        Heuristic for comparing two platforms. If platforms (which is not the same thing as operating systems) are found to be approximately similar in nature, this will return true. For instance the LINUX platform is similar to UNIX, and will give a positive result if compared.
        Parameters:
        compareWith - the platform to compare with
        Returns:
        true if platforms are approximately similar, false otherwise

      • family

        public abstract Platform family()
        Returns a platform that represents a family for the current platform. For instance the LINUX if a part of the UNIX family, the XP is a part of the WINDOWS family.
        Returns:
        the family platform for the current one, or null if this Platform represents a platform family (such as Windows, or MacOS)

        public int getMajorVersion()
        Returns the major version of this platform.
        Returns:
        the major version of specified platform

      • getMinorVersion

        public int getMinorVersion()
        Returns the minor version of this platform.
