This article is about Locate Execute Expect design pattern. In the beginning we will discuss about the purpose of this pattern.We will review the general structure of a classic framework where there is a Page Object Model structure and then we will present the Locate Execute Expect structure. We will show some advantages and disadvantages for both patterns.After this comparison, we need to see the differences in a real-world scenario, and we will show you a general structure of an automation framework that does not implement a design pattern. After that we will show how the structure looks like when we have the Page Object Model and Locate Execute Expect pattern implemented.We will try to apply Locate Execute Expect pattern to a project and see how easy is to achieve this. This pattern is very flexible, and it can be used also in combination with Gherkin which is one of the most used behavior-driven development languages.In the end, we will learn when we should use this pattern and when we should avoid it.
