Screenplay extensions

Most of the useful functionality of Screenplay comes from Screenplay Extensions. Extensions typically provide Abilities, Performables and Builders which offer functionality relevant to that extension's technology.

Officially-supported extensions

These extensions are authored and maintained alongside the main Screenplay library. Developers are encouraged and welcomed to create their own extensions, too.

  • Selenium: remote control Web Browsers using Selenium Web Driver
  • Web APIs: communicate with Web APIs with an HTTP Client

Built-in abilities and performables

Screenplay offers a very small number of abilities and performables within the base library; these do not require the installation of an extension.

Using a Stopwatch

When an actor needs to keep precise track of time, you may give them the UseAStopwatch ability. Actors with this ability may use Actions and Questions which relate to use of the stopwatch. These are all accessible from the builder class StopwatchBuilder.
