similar to: How to use Selenium from Rails

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

One of the things I like about Rails is the built-in support for testing ? it?s almost hard not to write tests. But even if I write extensive tests (currently ?Code to Test Ratio: 1:3.4? according to rake stats in a small toy project) I still feel that it?s not enough. I occasionally get the urge to fire up the browser and click around to test that everything works. You shouldn?t have to

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

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:

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

Hello, I am looking for a user test automation tool. When I say ''user'', I mean it should mimic the user interacting with the app. That ultimately boils down to a tool that drives a browser or is able to make http requests and allow us to deal easily with the responses. Our requirements are to be able to write the tests in Ruby (no need to switch to other language for test

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/.

Hi, I am trying to use Selenium RC in my rails application. I first install selenium RC ruby client (>gem install selenium-client). Then create a "selenium_test.rb" in libs folder. In the file, I create a class "SeleniumTest". # libs/selenium_test.rb require "selenium-client" class SeleniumTest attr_reader :browser def initialize @browser =

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

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 there, I''ve added an extra bunch of testing features for doing in-browser testing with Selenium, and am having quite a time figuring out how to use url_for with having a controller object present. I''ve tried using ActionController::Base.url_for and ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper.url_for but haven''t been able to get something that works. What I want to be able

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"

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

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 =

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

This is related to Selenium/Watir usage along side webrat in story testing. MHS_Testing and Rspec-ui provide some great help for testing through frameworks like Selenium/Watir. But there is something missing, Webrat has changed the landscape somewhat with Acceptance Tests/Story Driven development. Now I have a choice: 1. Tests and rails process run as one test process (Webrat) 2. Use

Hello All, I need to stub two class methods before a selenium call. The .rsel is : require ''mocha'' SalesConfigWork.stubs(:load_work_data) SalesConfigWork.stubs(:delete_work_data) setup :fixtures => :sales_config_works open "/" The Selenium test runner result is : undefined method `stubs'' for SalesConfigWork:Class Extracted source (around line *#0*):

I have been using Rspec stories with Webrat feeling very productive and happy. Then I needed to do something with Selenium (Webrat could have done what I needed but it does not yet have the functionality). Selenium-core as part of a rails plugin looked nice but did not seem to fit with rspec stories. So I went the Selenium-rc route. Since Selenium uses a separate instance of rails
