Hope all is well,
Striaght to the point I wonder if someone has any ideas to help me with
the following problem:
I have written an automation framework in ruby, that uses selenium and
rspec and is run by an ant task, as thats the build process that is
implemented here.
Im currently running all my spec tests in firefox on my local machine by
passing the selenium variable:
@selenium = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444,
"*chrome",
"#{URL_BASE_1}", 10000);
if i want to change it to use ie then i would do the following
@selenium = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444,
"*iehta",
"#{URL_BASE_1}", 10000);
This is fine, bu i want to modify the run so it runs the tests against
all the browsers in one go without having to manually edit that line
after each run.
Anyone have any ideas on how i can do this using rspec?

Perhaps you could use that (I believe it comes with ant tasks that do some of the magic). http://selenium-grid.openqa.org/ Alternatively if you just want to run them sequentially why don''t you write a simple wrapper script. Something like: %w{iehta chrome}.each |browser| do @selenium = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444, "*#{browser}","#{URL_BASE_1}", 10000); #go rspec go! # spec --format html spec/ @selenium.stop end A further note, it does seem a bit odd to have specs that touch Selenium if thats what you are doing. Perhaps look towards using Features and something like Cucumber http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/tree/master rather than specs. HTH -- Joseph Wilk http://www.joesniff.co.uk

I have downloaded the demo, and run the example ruby tests in sequence and parrallel. I know how to start the hub, how to set up different RC instances that support different browsers on different machines but.... im still unsure on how to get it to run all the tests in ie and firefox without having to manually chaning it everytime....can you shed some light?? Thanks appreciate the help you have given me so far... -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
