Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers only or cross browser testing - Opening Browsers Parallel

Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers only or cross browser testing - Opening Browsers Parallel

Purpose: Executing same selenium script with multiple browsers only or cross browser testing - Opening Browsers Parallel

In my previous post I provided one way of executing same script with different browsers. Now I am going to show how to run the same script parallel(opening all the browsers at time)

Only the change is very small but I wontedly keeping the post separately to avoid the confusion.

The parallel attribute on the <suite> tag can take one of following values:

<suite name="My suite" parallel="methods">

parallel="methods": TestNG will run all your test methods in separate threads. Dependent methods will also run in separate threads but they will respect the order that you specified.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="tests">

parallel="tests": TestNG will run all the methods in the same <test> tag in the same thread, but each <test> tag will be in a separate thread. This allows you to group all your classes that are not thread safe in the same <test> and guarantee they will all run in the same thread while taking advantage of TestNG using as many threads as possible to run your tests.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="classes">

parallel="classes": TestNG will run all the methods in the same class in the same thread, but each class will be run in a separate thread.

<suite name="My suite" parallel="instances">

parallel="instances": TestNG will run all the methods in the same instance in the same thread, but two methods on two different instances will be running in different threads.


From the above parameters: we will use parallel="tests" to achieve our goal.

Step 1: We need to write our case with small change by passing a parameter.

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Parameters;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class MultiBrowser {
 private WebDriver driver;

 @Parameters("browser")
 @BeforeMethod
 public void setup(String browser)
 {
  if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("firefox"))
  {
   driver = new FirefoxDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("iexplorer"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
   driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
  }
  else if(browser.equalsIgnoreCase("chrome"))
  {
// Update the driver path with your location
   System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
   driver = new ChromeDriver();
  }
  driver.manage().window().maximize();
 }

 @AfterMethod
 public void tearDown()
 {
 driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void testMultiBrowser() throws InterruptedException
 {
  driver.get("http://www.google.com");
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
}

2. Now we need to create TestNG.xml and write the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd" >
<suite name="MultiBrowser">
       <test name="TestFirefox" verbose="10">
              <parameter name="browser" value="firefox" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="ChromeTest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="chrome" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
       <test name="IETest">
              <parameter name="browser" value="iexplorer" />
              <classes>
                     <class name="MultiBrowser" />
              </classes>
       </test>
</suite>

3. Now run the code from TestNG.xml

You can observer all the three browsers will open and perform the task at a time.

How to Run Webdriver Script under Internet Explorer and Google Chrome

How to Run Webdriver Script under Internet Explorer and Google Chrome

Purpose: How to Run Webdriver Script for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome

Running Webdriver script for Internet Explorer & Chrome is not as same as working with Firefox browser. Following are the steps to Run:

Step 1: In order to run, we need to download IE Driver & Chrome Driver and we can download from https://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/detail?name=IEDriverServer_Win32_2.31.0.zip
https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/list

Step 2: Include the respective drivers in to the Path

Step 3: Set the System property using the following Command which takes two parameters Driver and location of the driver.

System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");

Step 4: Now create an Driver Object for IE using the following command

driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

Once we start running the script Internet Explorer will open and execute script.

Following is the sample code for IE and kept commented code for Google Chrome

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class DriversExample{
private static InternetExplorerDriver driver;
//private static ChromeDriver driver;
@BeforeClass
 public void beforeClass()
 {
  System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
  driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
//  System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
//  driver = new ChromeDriver();
  }
@Test
 public void testDrivers() throws Exception
 {
  driver.get("http://www.google.com");
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
@AfterClass
 public void afterClass()
 {
  driver.close();
 }
}
