Headless & Continuous Integration

Headless Mode

A very common use case is to execute tests in Continuous Integration systems (build pipelines) in headless mode.

Config changes to execute tests in headless mode

Create a new config called ci.properties and
a. Specify web.headless as true
Execute tests via gradle task
a. /gradlew clean runWebTests -Dconfig=ci

ci.properties

# Web Config

# Target Browser. Supported values <any | chrome | firefox | msedge |responsive>
web.target: chrome

# Feed file having desiredCapabilities, arguments etc
web.headless: true

Use ci.properties config while running tests

./gradlew clean runWebTests -Dconfig=ci
