In the last video, I did some refactoring to take all the major steps of the test and extract them into methods. Now, I'm going to extend that example and move these methods outside of the test class and into specific page object classes to demonstrate the page object pattern. I'll start by creating a new directory under the root project of start and I'll right-click and select new directory. And I will call this new directory pages. Then, I'll right-click on this directory and create a new Java Class called FormPage. In this page object class, I'll want to have the method to submit a form. So I'll hop back over…
