Selenium - TestNG - Jenkins Integration

As current agile development process keep on expecting more testing with continuous integration stuff, I am going to give brief summary about how we can integrate the CI process with Jenkins.

Pre-Requesties:
1. Your Selenium project
2. Your Selenium and TestNG lib locations
3. Jenkins installed. Ensure IIS in your machine installed and you can access Jenkins Dashboard using http://localhost:8080/

Before creating a job under Jenkins, try to run your selenium tests from command line.

Selenium - CommandLine:

Let's say, you have project called SeleniumProject under C:\Eclipse folder. Assume you have all your JAR files (Selenium Jars, TestNG Jars, etc) under C:\Eclipse\JARs folder.

Now you can prepare your command.

1. Go to Project location
cd "C:\Eclipse\SeleniumProject"

2. Execute your testng.xml suite by setting the requied class path.
java -cp "bin;..\JARs\*" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml

-cp means class path
bin - bin path to look into class files to execute
..\JARs\* - to refer the JARs location and to include all JARs
testng.xml - assumed testng.xml file is under the project folder

Now it should run the tests. If working fine, then you can update the command in Jenkins.

Jenkins Job:

1. Go to Manage Jenkins --> Configure System and set the JDK installation path.
2. Create New Item of type Freestyle project
3. Under Build section, add build step of type Windows Execute Batch Command
4. Provide your commands and Save.
cd "C:\Eclipse\SeleniumProject"
java -cp "bin;..\JARs\*" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml
5. Now you can run and test.

Go to your newly created project and click Build Now. You can see the build process running and see the output.

Robotic Process Automation vs Traditional Test Automation vs Process/Task Automation

In IT industry, the term RPA is keep on hearing all sides of the walls for a while; and I was so confused about What's the difference from the test automation tools in the market and what's more into it. I did some search, understanding, and writing this post to share with you all. If I am not correct, PLEASE correct me. Traditional Test Automation: First, we have to recall the test automation tool QTP or UFT (Initially developed by Mercury Interactive Corporation(MIC) after WinRunner, then sold to HP, and again MicroFocus acquired from HP now). If you look into the architecture of this tool, MIC was trying to convert the testers into more efficient testers i.e. Testers were executing the test cases manually for regression suites, performance suites, etc. which had lot of repetitive tasks done by human testers instead of concentrating into new ideas or bug finding strategies to improve the quality of the product.  Thus WinRunner was introduced but it was demanding m...

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...
