similar to: How to use Selenium RC in Rails

Hey there, There''s been a bit of work going on with Selenium and Rails recently, so I thought I may as well share what I came up with. Check out my blog post at http://blog.viney.net.nz/articles/2006/02/09/selenium-testing, grab the plugin and give it a whirl (be sure to read the README!). Basically, my approach was to make it possible to write Selenium tests in the same way that

Hi all, I am getting the below error when I try to run my test case. I have already started selenium RC server (port:4444).. Also I have specified " 127.0.0.1 localhost " in /etc/hosts ... :ruby test1.rb Loaded suite test1 Started E Finished in 0.022698 seconds. 1) Error: testfestool(Test1): SocketError: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known

We''ve been threatening to open source this for a while, most recently during Alex and Brian''s talk at Railsconf [1]. See the readme [2] for more info, and the source/rdocs for all the gory details. Feedback and contributions are very welcome. Thanks, pt. [1] http://www.slideshare.net/alexchaffee/fullstack-webapp-testing-with-selenium-and-rails [2] == Introduction Welcome to

Greetings, I''ve just finished a new release of my Selenium testing plugin with much tighter integration to rails. The rake selenium step has been removed as all tests are now live (just save your test file and refresh the browser). Install it with: script/plugin install http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/selenium_testing And check out the readme:

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 =

Hi list I''ve got a bit of a philosophical question. After just having discovered Selenium /Selenium IDE and the rails selenium plugin I''ve realized that it''s a whole lot easier to do functinoal testing than writing the traditional rails functional tests. However it implies that the development database consists of standardized test data (e.g the test & dev

I caught two different approaches to integrate Selenium to Rails: http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/selenium_testing/README http://andthennothing.net/archives/2006/02/05/selenium-on-rails It seems that the first makes it easy to right the tests, and the second makes it easy to run them. Am I correct? Any chance of the two hooking up and cross polinating? -- Posted via

I am trying to run cucumber/webrat with Sinatra on Jruby 1.7.3 (1.9.3) on Windows. It seems to work ok, but when I try to add selenium to webrat. I get the error shown below. It seems like it thinks it is in a linux environment or something as the error happens when it tries to start selenium server and there is a "&" at the end of the argument chain. I took a look at capybara

Hi all Tonight I wanted to test out selenium in a story to test some ajax stuff on a page. After struggling for an hour or two with disappearing database objects I found the solution in a blog post by Kerry Buckley. with the comment included it reads: # Don''t add an ActiveRecordSafetyListener, or it''ll roll stuff back class Spec::Story::Runner::ScenarioRunner def

I am using Spec:UI to run my Selenium tests, and I want to start Selenium only once, for many descriptions. I''ve come quite far solving it by declaring a main ui spec like the following: require ''pathname'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/selenium'' $base_url="http://localhost:3000" $browser =

Does anyone have links to any complete Selenium docs or tutorial? I have Selenium 1.0.9 installed (OS X, Leopard), the proxy server appears to launch ok, and got the test to reach: @browser = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.google.com", 15000) this method has no documentation as far as I can tell (or

Hi All, I am trying to learn BDD using the Cucumber framework, and am integrating Selenium for client side tests. I''ve been playing with refactoring my cucumber installation a bit, and have pulled the code to start the selenium server out into a profile-configuration file, similar to env.rb: # start selenium server @@browser = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444,

Yesterday I added some Watir examples to RSpec''s svn. Today I added some Selenium (actually - Selenium Remote Control) examples. It''s dead easy to use both, and the Ruby code you end up writing is actually quite similar. Here''s a taste: == Watir == require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/rspec_watir'' context "Google''s search page" do

Dear all, i'm trying to run multiple selenium rc server on a centos box (different ports) with developers connecting to it through VNC (different respective ports) to check their automated test result. i can easily do the above manually (when it comes to running RC server). though automating the process is proving to be difficult. can anyone guide me on how to run a service on a specific

Has anybody had any luck getting Cucumber, Webrat and Selenium to play nicely together for SSL sites? My test environment: - nginx front-end accepting SSL requests, proxying them to mongrel back-end - mongrel back-end accepting normal HTTP requests - application routes configured with ":protocol => ''https''" so that URLs generated with "_url"

I''ve just released a new version of Selenium on Rails[1]. It''s a plugin that makes it easy to test Rails applications through browsers using Selenium [2]. The major new features are exprimental support for running all tests through a Rake task (which launches any number of browsers) and a new format RSelenese. The Rake task has a few rough edges so I would appreciate if

hello, I am starting out with cucumber and selenium. Whenever I run a rake features on my features or on cucumber/examples/selenium/features too many browser windows start... for example if run cucumber examples/selenium/features 3 browser windows get launched. I commented out browser closing after tests to see exactly how many windows and for a simple google search feature I ended up with 3

Now that 0.7.0 is forcing me to write properly compartmented specs, I thought I''d give the "dead easy Selenium support" a try. Is it supposed to all the things that rspec normally does for me, or is it just for using rspec-like grammar to surround Selenium tests? Specifically, should it roll back the database between specifications? I just did a quick test, and the result

Hi all, Selenium on Rails has so far lived on my personal site, but now it has moved in on OpenQA. Please get involved and help making testing Rails applications using Selenium too easy to resist! http://www.openqa.org/selenium-on-rails/ Cheers, Jonas Bengtsson http://andthennothing.net -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello there. I have a problem doing Selenium tests. When I try to test my delete method doesn''t prompt me the respective alert which otherwise would appears before run the destroy method on the controller. Without Selenium the application prompt me as the regular way but within Selenium things go badly. Here is a part of my view: <%=link_to_remote
