PDF Testing

There may be scenarios in which you need to download a PDF document and edit/assert text which it contains for PDF testing. This can be easily done in Provar using the Download interaction for links, which downloads the link’s destination in a value and parses/asserts it.

Download and Assert PDF Testing

Specify the following parameters:

Result Name: Stores the content of the downloaded document
Result Scope: Selects the scope of the result
Result Format: Indicates how Provar should the content

There are three ways in which the content of the document/PDF can be processed or tested.

Parsed PDF Testing

The content will be parsed by Provar, allowing the value to be updated by using Replace test step. The text content of word/PDF documents is made available for assertion also while doing PDF testing.

Use MatchAPI to Assert Text

Text

The content is parsed similar to above but stored as a simple text value. The value cannot be updated and re-uploaded. Text content available for only assertion.
