karma-sauce-launcher

Run your unit tests on Sauce Labs' browser cloud!

Installation

Install karma-sauce-launcher as a devDependency in your package.json:

npm install karma-sauce-launcher --save-dev

Usage

This launcher is typically used in CI to run your unit tests across many browsers and platforms on Sauce Labs. However, you can also use it locally to debug tests in browsers not available on your machine. It is expected that you are already familiar with Karma when configuring this launcher, so if you are new to Karma, head over to the Karma website.

The Sauce Labs platform configurator can help to find the correct configuration for your desired test platform.

Adding karma-sauce-launcher to an existing Karma config

To configure this launcher, you need to add two properties to your top-level Karma config, sauceLabs and customLaunchers, set the browsers array to use Sauce Labs browsers, and add the sauceLabs reporter.

The sauceLabs object defines global properties for each browser/platform while the customLaunchers object configures individual browsers. The sauceLabs reporter allows your tests results to be properly displayed on https://saucelabs.com. Here is a sample Karma config to get the launcher running:

module.exports = function(config) {
  // Example set of browsers to run on Sauce Labs
  // Check out https://saucelabs.com/platforms for all browser/platform combos
  var customLaunchers = {
    // Old JSONWP way of setting the capabilities
    sl_chrome: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      browserName: 'chrome',
      platform: 'Windows 10',
    },
    sl_firefox: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      browserName: 'firefox',
      version: 'latest'
    },
    sl_ie_11: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      browserName: 'internet explorer',
      platform: 'Windows 8.1',
    },
    // Mobile settings
    // 1. Go to https://wiki.saucelabs.com/display/DOCS/Platform+Configurator#/
    // 2. Select Appium iOS,Android
    // 3. Configure your device
    //    Don't forget to provide the `appiumVersion`
    sl_ios_safari: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      deviceName: 'iPhone 11 Simulator',
      platformVersion: '13.4',
      platformName: 'iOS',
      browserName: 'Safari',
      appiumVersion: '1.17.1',
      deviceOrientation: 'portrait'
    },
    // !!!!IMPORTANT!!!!
    // If you want to use an Android emulator then you can't use localhost.
    // Because an Android emulator is a VM it will go to it's own localhost
    // and the test will fail. Make change the `hostname` to your
    // local ip
    sl_android: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      deviceName: 'Android GoogleAPI Emulator',
      platform: 'Android',
      version: '11.0',
      browserName: 'chrome',
      appiumVersion: '1.18.1',
      deviceOrientation: 'portrait'
    },
    // For W3C way of setting the capabilities check
    // https://wiki.saucelabs.com/display/DOCS/Platform+Configurator#/
    // And select WebDriver (W3C) Selenium 3/4, Webdriver.io
    sl_chromeW3C: {
      base: 'SauceLabs',
      browserName: 'chrome',
      browserVersion: 'latest',
      'sauce:options':{
        tags: ['w3c-chrome']
      }
    },
  }

  config.set({

    // The rest of your karma config is here
    // ...
    sauceLabs: {
        testName: 'Web App Unit Tests'
    },
    customLaunchers: customLaunchers,
    browsers: Object.keys(customLaunchers),
    reporters: ['dots', 'saucelabs'],
    singleRun: true
  })
}

Note: this config assumes that process.env.SAUCE_USERNAME and process.env.SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY are set.
