Selenium Grid with TestNG


Hi all,
Here I want to share some information on "How to run selenium tests in parallel using Grid".

Steps:

1.     Keep ready the tests and TestNG.xml file by including tests to be run.
2.     Launch the Grid using "ant launch-hub"
3.     Then, launch how many RC instances you want to run on different environments like,  "ant launch-remote-control"
1.     You should use parameter -DhubURL=yourHubURL. Here yourHubURL is the machine address in which you launched Grid Hub.
2.     then you can use parameters -Dport, -Denvironment, -Dhost to launch different RCs.
4.     So now, Hub and RC instances are running. To see the running instances, goto http://localhost:4444/console
5.     After this, you have to make test multiplication for the purpose of making each instance to run a test.Because all instances will not share a single test.
So make the testng.xml file as below. I have a test

<suite name="Suite1"  parallel="tests" thread-count="2">
<test name="TestPlans1" preserve-order="false" > 
<parameter name="Browser" value="*firefox">
    <classes> 
      <class name="TestPlans.TestPlan_1"> 
        <methods> 
        </methods> 
      </class> 
      <class name="TestPlans.TestPlan_2"> 
        <methods> 
          <include name="TestCase_1"/> 
          <include name="TestCase_2"/>
        </methods> 
      </class> 
    </classes> 
  </test> 

This is my actual XML file. But I created this copy with another test name inside only my browser is changed. So it will run separately on different specified browsers.

<test name="TestPlans2" preserve-order="false" > 
<parameter name="Browser" value="*iehta">
    <classes> 
      <class name="TestPlans.TestPlan_1"> 
        <methods>
        </methods> 
      </class> 
      <class name="TestPlans.TestPlan_2"> 
        <methods> 
          <include name="TestCase_1"/> 
          <include name="TestCase_2"/>
        </methods> 
      </class> 
    </classes> 
  </test> 

6. Now go and Run the TestNG test from Eclipse. Thats all.

Change IE Browser ZOOM settings

Lot of UI automation testers could have faced this problem as we could change the zoom settings while operating manually for our convenience and forgot to reset to 100%. But our QTP and some other related tools would operate the browser perfectly if browser zoom is 100%. So wee need to change the zoom before start to run the scripts. Its better to have a code snippet in our framework to change this zoom setting right? Here we go... 1. We can simply change the Registry values before Invoking IE Function  ChangeRegistry   Dim  objShell   Set  objShell =  CreateObject ( "WScript.Shell" )  objShell.RegWrite  "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Zoom\ZoomFactor" ,  "100000" ,  "REG_DWORD"   Set  objShell =  Nothing End   Function This option is very useful. But in real time, lot of customers could have restricted write access to windows registry. So we can try othe...
