Understanding The DSL

 

Let’s start with the DSL. So, DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. Not to mention, users get a high-speed bandwidth connection from a phone wall jack on an existing telephone network. Moreover, this works within the frequencies. So, you can use the Internet while making phone calls.

In the same vein, consider DSL Internet as the big brother to dial-up. Likewise, many local phone services provide High-Speed Internet access delivered through existing telephone networks. Not to mention, telephone wires transfer hundreds of thousands of frequencies. However, only a few thousand are for telephone communications. This implies that the telephone and DSL modem can work at the same time.
In adition, there are two types of DSL technology.
Symmetrical DSL– Certainly, symmetrical connections give equal bandwidth for upload as well as download speeds.
Asymmetrical DSL– Most importantly, this is one of the most popular types of the DSL connection. Certainly, most people download more information than they are uploading. Therefore, an asymmetrical connection has more downstream bandwidth and less upstream bandwidth.

Above all, Capybara will only locate visible elements. Moreover, this is because a real user would not be able to interact with non-visible elements.

Not to mention, all searches in Capybara are case sensitive. Further, this is because Capybara heavily uses XPath, which doesn’t support case insensitivity.
