getMenuItemByLabel()​

getMenuItemByLabel(label, option?): Promise<Optional<MenuItemDriver>>

Defined in: packages/component-driver-mui-v7/src/components/SelectDriver.ts:113

getSelectedValues()​

getSelectedValues(): Promise<string[]>

Defined in: packages/component-driver-mui-v7/src/components/SelectDriver.ts:240

The selected values of a multiple select as an array. MUI stores a multi-select's value as a comma-joined string in the hidden input (what getValue returns), so this splits it; an empty selection yields [].

Returns​

Promise<string[]>


getValue()​

getValue(): Promise<string | null>

Defined in: packages/component-driver-mui-v7/src/components/SelectDriver.ts:73

Returns​

Promise<string | null>

Returns​

Promise<boolean>


isDropdownOpen()​

isDropdownOpen(): Promise<boolean>

Defined in: packages/component-driver-mui-v7/src/components/SelectDriver.ts:179

Check if the dropdown is open, or if it is a native select, it is always open because there is no known way check its open state

Returns​

Promise<boolean>

For native dropdown it is always true. For custom dropdown, it is true if the dropdown is open.

Properties​

commutableOption​

readonly commutableOption: CommutableComponentDriverOption

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1356

The component-agnostic slice of the constructor option that is safe to share across the whole driver tree — everything the constructor received EXCEPT the component-specific parts, which each driver owns for itself. Parent drivers pass this straight to the constructors of children they create dynamically (see the list helpers). See CommutableComponentDriverOption.

scrollIntoView()​

scrollIntoView(): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1529

ComponentDriver.waitUntil


waitUntilComponentState()​

waitUntilComponentState(option?): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1595

Wait until the component is in the expected state such as the component's visibility or existence. If the component has not reached the expected state within the timeout, it will throw an error.

By default it waits until the component is attached to the DOM within 30 seconds.

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

Wait until the component is attached and becomes visible to the DOM.

Parameters​
timeoutMs?​

number

The number of milliseconds to wait before timing out. Defaults to defaultWaitForOption.timeoutMs so this wait shares a single flake-tolerance source with waitUntilComponentState (#1057).

Returns​

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.waitUntilVisible


within()​

within<ContentT>(parts): ScenePartDriver<ContentT>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1468

Driver instances for a caller-supplied interior scene, resolved against this component's ComponentDriver.interiorLocator.

The call-time counterpart to ComponentDriver.parts: parts is the chrome the driver author hardcodes, this is the interior the scene author owns — a dialog's body, a popover's panel, a toast's action area. A PartLocator resolves lazily and queries nothing here, so this is synchronous and safe to call before the interior has mounted.

This replaced an earlier ContainerDriver base whose content option required the same scene to be named twice — once as a type argument, once in the driver option — plus a laundering constructor in every subclass (ADR-019). Named within rather than getContent because leaf drivers already own that name for reading a component's own text (a badge's content, a tooltip's content), and a base-class member cannot collide with them.

Interior children are constructed with an empty option, exactly as content parts always have been: an interior belongs to the scene, so it inherits no driver-specific configuration from its host. This differs deliberately from ComponentDriver.parts, whose children do inherit the host's option.

Type Parameters​
ContentT​

ContentT extends ScenePart

Parameters​
parts​

ContentT

The interior scene to resolve against this component's interior

Returns​

ScenePartDriver<ContentT>

One driver instance per named part

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.within


overriddenParentLocator()​

static overriddenParentLocator(_option?): Optional<PartLocator>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1393

Portal hook: where to re-root this driver's locator when its component renders outside the parent's DOM (a modal, popup, drawer). Return the PartLocator that locates the component from the document root, or undefined (the default) for normal in-tree components whose locator chains from the parent.

This is static because it is per-class metadata read off the constructor before any instance exists — which makes the "no instance state" constraint structural rather than a documented caution. Override with static override.

option is the fully-merged constructor option the driver is about to receive (the same value passed to the driver's own constructor) — a purely static, per-invocation input, not instance state — so a driver whose portalling is conditional on how its scene configures it (e.g. an overlay that can render teleported OR in-tree, such as PrimeVue's appendTo="self") can branch on a flag there instead of always re-rooting. Ignore it to keep unconditional portal behavior.

Parameters​
_option?​

Partial<IComponentDriverOption<any>>

Returns​

Optional<PartLocator>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.overriddenParentLocator


overrideLocatorRelativePosition()​

static overrideLocatorRelativePosition(_option?): Optional<LocatorRelativePosition>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1406

Portal hook: the locator relative position to apply when the component's real DOM is a sibling/elsewhere rather than a descendant (e.g. a MUI dialog rendered at the document root, located by a "Same"-level selector). Return undefined (the default) to keep the natural position declared by the ScenePart.

Static for the same reason as ComponentDriver.overriddenParentLocator: it is class-level metadata read before construction. Override with static override.

See ComponentDriver.overriddenParentLocator for what option carries and why accepting it does not reintroduce instance state.

Parameters​
_option?​

Partial<IComponentDriverOption<any>>

Returns​

Optional<LocatorRelativePosition>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.overrideLocatorRelativePosition

Protected members (18)

Accessors​

interiorLocator​

Get Signature​

get protected interiorLocator(): PartLocator

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1442

The element ComponentDriver.within resolves an interior scene against — "inside this component", as this driver defines inside. Defaults to ComponentDriver.locator, which is already correct wherever a driver's own locator resolves to the surface holding caller content (Radix/Reka anchor at Dialog.Content, Fluent at DialogSurface).

Override it when the driver's locator resolves to a wrapper instead. MUI's Dialog, Drawer and Menu are the shipped cases: their locator is the portal-rendered Modal root, whose children are the backdrop, two focus-trap sentinels and a positioning container. Un-narrowed, an interior there reaches MUI's own chrome, and a 'Child'-relative interior part resolves to .MuiBackdrop-root rather than to anything the scene wrote — silently, since a locator that matches the wrong element raises nothing.

An override only helps where that chrome is ancestral to the caller's content. Where a design system interleaves chrome beside it — Fluent's focus-trap sentinels are siblings of the dialog body — no anchor separates the two, and the default stands (ADR-019's rollout-width audit).

An override MUST resolve to an element containing everything the caller supplied. For a slotted component that means the surface, never one slot: MUI spreads caller content across DialogTitle/DialogContent/DialogActions as siblings, so narrowing to .MuiDialogContent-root would drop the action buttons scenes click. Over-narrowing fails the same silent way it fixes — the part just stops resolving (ADR-019).

Returns​

PartLocator

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.interiorLocator

Methods​

activate()​

protected activate(): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1522

Activate the component without relying on pointer geometry. See Interactor.activate.

Returns​

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.activate


awaitPostcondition()​

protected awaitPostcondition(postcondition, probeFn, option?): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1628

Hold an action open until its own postcondition holds, so the action does not resolve while the DOM it promised is still arriving.

Why actions, not reads or assertions. An interactor settles the framework's scheduler after a write (React act(), Vue nextTick(), Angular whenStable()) and then treats the DOM as final. A component that defers its own DOM work onto a host timer — a setTimeout to re-register a select's options, to restore a picker's section spans — lands after that settle, so the next single-shot read observes a transient state that is neither the old value nor the new one. Making reads retry cannot fix this (a read does not know what it is waiting for, and negative reads must stay fast); making every mutation drain a fixed extra macrotask is a sleep at framework scale. The action is the only layer that knows what it promised, so the action is where the wait belongs.

Probing uses waitUntil's escalating intervals, so a postcondition that already holds costs one probe and no delay.

Parameters​
postcondition​

string

Human-readable description of the awaited state, used verbatim in PostconditionNotMetError. Phrase it as the state that must arrive, not the action taken.

probeFn​

() => boolean | Promise<boolean>

Returns true once the postcondition holds. Keep it cheap — it runs repeatedly.

option?​
timeoutMs?​

number

Defaults to defaultWaitForOption.timeoutMs so every wait in the library shares one flake-tolerance source (#1057).

Returns​

Promise<void>

Throws​

If the postcondition never holds. Failing here is deliberate: an action that cannot keep its promise is a real defect, and reporting it at the action gives a far better diagnostic than the downstream assertion mismatch it would otherwise become.

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.awaitPostcondition


contextMenu()​

protected contextMenu(): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1518

Dispatch a right-click / contextmenu event on the component. See Interactor.contextMenu.

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.contextMenu


drag()​

protected drag(delta): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1560

Drag this component by the given pixel delta from its center. See Interactor.drag.

Prefer a keyboard-driven setValue over a true drag in real drivers — these drag primitives exist only for cases keyboard cannot express (e.g. panning a Lightbox, reordering a column). jsdom has no layout engine, so the positional outcome of the drag is E2E-only there.

Parameters​
delta​

Point

Pixel offset to drag by

Returns​

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.drag


dragTo()​

protected dragTo(target): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1549

Drag this component and drop it onto another component. See Interactor.dragTo.

Prefer a keyboard-driven setValue over a true drag in real drivers — these drag primitives exist only for cases keyboard cannot express (e.g. panning a Lightbox, reordering a column). jsdom has no layout engine, so the positional outcome of the drag is E2E-only there.

Parameters​
target​

ComponentDriver<any>

Another driver whose root element is the drop target

Returns​

Promise<void>

Inherited from​

ComponentDriver.dragTo


enforcePartExistence()​

protected enforcePartExistence(partName): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1474

getBoundingRect()​

protected getBoundingRect(): Promise<BoundingRect>

Defined in: packages/core/dist/index.d.mts:1567

Get this component's bounding rectangle. See Interactor.getBoundingRect.

jsdom has no layout engine, so every coordinate and dimension is 0 there; real geometry is E2E-only.
