Gauge tests with Selenium Grid [http://getgauge.io/]

Gauge with Selenium Grid

This is a sample Gauge project that uses Selenium as the driver to interact with a web browser. It uses Selenium Grid to run tests on multiple browsers. This can also be used to run tests remotely, in different browsers, different platforms or even different versions of browsers.

Prerequisites

This example requires the following softwares to run.

• Java 1.7 or above
• Gauge
• Gauge Java plugin
  • can be installed using gauge --install java
• Firefox(>= v46)/Chromedriver in PATH

Setting the Selenium Grid

• Download the latest version of Selenium Server here. Or, you can use the selenium server jar v2.53.1 present in resources directory of this repository.

To set up the Hub, run

java -jar <path_to_selenium_server_jar> -role hub

This uses port 4444 by default for its web interface.

To set up a node, run

java -jar <path_to_selenium_server_jar> -role webdriver -hub http://localhost:4444/grid/register/ -port 5566

You can use the free port of choice.

To check web console, go to http://localhost:4444/grid/console

If you are running hub and nodes in different machines, localhost should be replaced with IP address of hub. This should also be updated in project_dir/env/user.properties.

Run specs

• Clone repository and run

mvn test

This runs the sample specs using the firefox driver by default. To run tests in Chrome browser, pass the -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="<path_to_chrome_driver>" flag to selenium node. Then run specs using mvn test -Denv="chrome"

To use a different browser, set the environment property BROWSER in project_dir/env/user.properties.

BROWSER = chrome
