Selenoid

Pre-Requisite#

Please go through this link to make sure you have installed docker & Configuration Manager.

Setup Docker in IntelliJ Idea#

The Ekam plugin installs the Docker plugin as part of the installation. Now we need to configure Docker within IntelliJ Idea. For this.

IntelliJ Idea → Preferences → Build, Execution, Deployment → Docker

Click on the + button to configure Docker

Click Apply button. Then the OK button to dismiss the window.

Now you would see the Docker window in your IDE. Right-click and choose Connect.

Bring up Selenoid containers#

You would see Containers and Images.

Right-click on selenoid and Start container. Start selenoid-ui container too.

Open http://localhost:8080 & observe that selenoid-ui is up.

open http://localhost:4444/wd/hub

and you should see text You are using Selenoid 1.10.4!

Now let us make Ekam execute tests against Selenoid containers#

Here are steps

1. Create a webfeed specific to Selenoid

2. Create a cloud-config file specific to Selenoid

3. Create a config to use 1 and 2

Create a webfeed specific to Selenoid#

Let us create webfeed file

src/test/resources/cloud_config/selenoid/selenoid-webfeed.json

content as below:

{
  "desiredCapabilities": {
    "pageLoadStrategy": "eager",
    "enableVNC": true
  },
  "arguments": [
  ],
  "preferences": {
    "managed_default_content_settings.cookies": 2
  },
  "extensions": [
  ],
  "experimentalOptions": {
  }
}

Please observe that enable VNC is set to true.

Create a cloud-config file specific to Selenoid (Hub)#

Let us create cloud-config file

src/test/resources/cloud_config/selenoid-local-hub.json

content as below:

{
  "url": "http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"
}

Create a config to the files we created#

Let us create selenoid.local.properties under config.properties

Lets execute our tests !!

./gradlew clean runWebTests -Dconfig=selenoid.local

Hurray !! We executed our test as part of Selenoid.

Let us say your team/company has hosted Selenoid hub centrally, then all that you need to do is to - update cloud-config file to mention the hub url.
