/**
* Defines an object that runs Selenium commands.
*
* Element Locators
*
* Element Locators tell Selenium which HTML element a command refers to. The format of a locator
* is:
*
* locatorType=argument
*
* We support the following strategies for locating elements:
*
*
* - identifier=id: Select the element with the specified @id attribute.
* If no match is found, select the first element whose @name attribute is id. (This is
* normally the default; see below.)
* - id=id: Select the element with the specified @id attribute.
* - name=name: Select the first element with the specified @name
* attribute.
*
* - username
* - name=username
*
*
* The name may optionally be followed by one or more element-filters, separated from the
* name by whitespace. If the filterType is not specified, value is
* assumed.
*
*
* - name=flavour value=chocolate
*
*
* - dom=javascriptExpression:
*
* Find an element by evaluating the specified string. This allows you to traverse the HTML Document
* Object Model using JavaScript. Note that you must not return a value in this string; simply make
* it the last expression in the block.
*
* - dom=document.forms['myForm'].myDropdown
* - dom=document.images[56]
* - dom=function foo() { return document.links[1]; }; foo();
*
*
* - xpath=xpathExpression: Locate an element using an XPath expression.
*
* - xpath=//img[@alt='The image alt text']
* - xpath=//table[@id='table1']//tr[4]/td[2]
* - xpath=//a[contains(@href,'#id1')]
* - xpath=//a[contains(@href,'#id1')]/@class
* - xpath=(//table[@class='stylee'])//th[text()='theHeaderText']/../td
* - xpath=//input[@name='name2' and @value='yes']
* - xpath=//*[text()="right"]
*
*
* - link=textPattern: Select the link (anchor) element which contains
* text matching the specified pattern.
*
* - link=The link text
*
*
* - css=cssSelectorSyntax: Select the element using css selectors.
* Please refer to CSS2 selectors, CSS3 selectors for more
* information. You can also check the TestCssLocators test in the selenium test suite for an
* example of usage, which is included in the downloaded selenium core package.
*
* - css=a[href="#id3"]
* - css=span#firstChild + span
*
*
* Currently the css selector locator supports all css1, css2 and css3 selectors except namespace in
* css3, some pseudo classes(:nth-of-type, :nth-last-of-type, :first-of-type, :last-of-type,
* :only-of-type, :visited, :hover, :active, :focus, :indeterminate) and pseudo
* elements(::first-line, ::first-letter, ::selection, ::before, ::after).
*
*
* - ui=uiSpecifierString: Locate an element by resolving the UI
* specifier string to another locator, and evaluating it. See the Selenium UI-Element Reference for more details.
*
* - ui=loginPages::loginButton()
* - ui=settingsPages::toggle(label=Hide Email)
* - ui=forumPages::postBody(index=2)//a[2]
*
*
*
*
* Without an explicit locator prefix, Selenium uses the following default strategies:
*
*
* - dom, for locators starting with "document."
* - xpath, for locators starting with "//"
* - identifier, otherwise
*
* Element Filters
*
* Element filters can be used with a locator to refine a list of candidate elements. They are
* currently used only in the 'name' element-locator.
*
*
* Filters look much like locators, ie.
*
* filterType=argument
*
* Supported element-filters are:
*
*
* value=valuePattern
*
* Matches elements based on their values. This is particularly useful for refining a
* list of similarly-named toggle-buttons.
*
* index=index
*
* Selects a single element based on its position in the list (offset from
* zero).
String-match Patterns
*
* Various Pattern syntaxes are available for matching string values:
*
*
* - glob:pattern: Match a string against a "glob" (aka "wildmat")
* pattern. "Glob" is a kind of limited regular-expression syntax typically used in command-line
* shells. In a glob pattern, "*" represents any sequence of characters, and "?" represents any
* single character. Glob patterns match against the entire string.
* - regexp:regexp: Match a string using a regular-expression. The full
* power of JavaScript regular-expressions is available.
* - regexpi:regexpi: Match a string using a case-insensitive
* regular-expression.
* - exact:string:
*
* Match a string exactly, verbatim, without any of that fancy wildcard stuff.
*
*
* If no pattern prefix is specified, Selenium assumes that it's a "glob" pattern.
*
*
* For commands that return multiple values (such as verifySelectOptions), the string being matched
* is a comma-separated list of the return values, where both commas and backslashes in the values
* are backslash-escaped. When providing a pattern, the optional matching syntax (i.e. glob, regexp,
* etc.) is specified once, as usual, at the beginning of the pattern.
*
* @deprecated The RC interface will be removed in Selenium 3.0. Please migrate to using WebDriver.

*
* Window locators provide different ways of specifying the window object: by title, by internal
* JavaScript "name," or by JavaScript variable.
*
*
* - title=My Special Window: Finds the window using the text that
* appears in the title bar. Be careful; two windows can share the same title. If that happens,
* this locator will just pick one.
* - name=myWindow: Finds the window using its internal JavaScript
* "name" property. This is the second parameter "windowName" passed to the JavaScript method
* window.open(url, windowName, windowFeatures, replaceFlag) (which Selenium intercepts).
* - var=variableName: Some pop-up windows are unnamed (anonymous),
* but are associated with a JavaScript variable name in the current application window, e.g.
* "window.foo = window.open(url);". In those cases, you can open the window using "var=foo".
*
*
* If no window locator prefix is provided, we'll try to guess what you mean like this:
*
*
* 1.) if windowID is null, (or the string "null") then it is assumed the user is referring to the
* original window instantiated by the browser).
*
*
* 2.) if the value of the "windowID" parameter is a JavaScript variable name in the current
* application window, then it is assumed that this variable contains the return value from a call
* to the JavaScript window.open() method.
*
*
* 3.) Otherwise, selenium looks in a hash it maintains that maps string names to window "names".
*
*
* 4.) If that fails, we'll try looping over all of the known windows to try to find the
* appropriate "title". Since "title" is not necessarily unique, this may have unexpected
* behavior.
*
*
* If you're having trouble figuring out the name of a window that you want to manipulate, look at
* the Selenium log messages which identify the names of windows created via window.open (and
* therefore intercepted by Selenium). You will see messages like the following for each window as
* it is opened:
*
*
* debug: window.open call intercepted; window ID (which you can use with selectWindow()) is "myNewWindow"
*
*
