Calling methods from two classes in Selenium C #

This is probably a stupid question, but I haven't found an answer that leads me to a solution yet

Let's say I have a test method to test the functionality of the login portal. It's in TestClassA. I want to run this method in TestClassB TestInitialize method so that I can reliably run selenium on a blank slide to test the functionality behind this portal login.

Here's the test code given

using Login_Elements;
using Dashboard;

namespace Test_Dashboard_Elements
{
[TestClass]
public class DashboardTests
{
    IWebDriver _driver;
    DashboardElements dash;

    [TestInitialize]
    public void Test_Setup()
    {
        dash = new DashboardElements(_driver);
        LoginPage login = new LoginPage(_driver);
        _driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        _driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("exampleurl/login");
        login.Login();
    }
}

      

Which calls the DashboardElements instance and passes the selenium web editor, then calls the LoginPage instance and passes the selenium web editor (which I believe is the problem), and calls the login method from LoginPage

    IWebDriver _driver;

    //Username field
    [FindsBy(How = How.Id, Using = "username")]
    private IWebElement userName;

    //Password field
    [FindsBy(How = How.Id, Using = "password")]
    private IWebElement password;

    //Submit Button
    [FindsBy(How = How.ClassName, Using = "btn")]
    private  IWebElement submit_button;

    //Constructor
    public LoginPage(IWebDriver driver)
    {
        this._driver = driver;
        PageFactory.InitElements(driver, this);
    }

    //Sends passed string to username field
    public void sendUserName(string strUsername)
    {
        userName.SendKeys(strUsername);
    }

    //Sends passed string to password field
    public void sendPassword(string strPassword)
    {
        password.SendKeys(strPassword);
    }

    //Clicks submit button
    public void submit()
    {
        submit_button.Click();
    }

    public void Login()
    {
        sendUserName("username");
        sendPassword("password!");
        submit();
    }

      

Returns

>Message: Initialization method Test_Dashboard_Elements.DashboardTests.Test_Setup threw exception.  System.ArgumentNullException: System.ArgumentNullException: searchContext may not be null Parameter name: searchContext

      

It looks to me like it has to do with passing _driver twice, but I'm not sure how to do it

It looks like the problem is with the instantiation driver

. You are not passing an instance of the driver to DashboardElements()

. To fix this:



  • First enter driver

    .
  • Transfer an instance driver

    to PageObject

    .

     using Login_Elements;
     using Dashboard;
    
    namespace Test_Dashboard_Elements
    {
        [TestClass]
        public class DashboardTests
        {
           IWebDriver _driver;
           DashboardElements dash;
    
        [TestInitialize]
        public void Test_Setup()
        {
          _driver = new FirefoxDriver();
           dash = new DashboardElements(_driver);
           LoginPage login = new LoginPage(_driver);
           _driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("exampleurl/login");
           login.Login();
        }
    }
