My version of an Abstract Page Object for using with Selenium and JBehave - utility behaviour for clicking links by text, selecting a JSF/PrimeFaces selectOne option, and waiting for ajax to complete.

Abstract page object for selenium webdriver

import net.thucydides.core.pages.PageObject;
import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

public abstract class AbstractPage extends PageObject {
    public AbstractPage(WebDriver driver) {
        super(driver);
    }


    public void waitForAjax() {
        waitForRenderedElements(By.className("ajaxLoadingImg"));
        waitForRenderedElementsToDisappear(By.className("ajaxLoadingImg"));
    }

    public void clickLinkWithText(String linkText) {
        getDriver().findElement(By.linkText(linkText)).click();
    }


    public void selectOne(String idPrefix, String value) {
        if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(value)) {
            getDriver().findElement(By.id(idPrefix + "_label")).click();
            getDriver().findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='" + idPrefix + "_panel']/div/ul/li[text()='" + value + "']")).click();
        }
    }

}
