Example Selenium Java Project

This project shows a minimal Java project setup for Selenium tests.

This includes a sample test "GithubTest.java" which goes to the Github login page, fills in the email and password, submits the form, and checks the error message.

Pre-requisites

You need to have Java SDK 8 and Maven installed to run this project.

Running tests

To run the sample test, run mvn test at the project root.

Configuration

Note that the sample test is configured to run the test on chrome using a Remote Selenium Grid.

If you want to run tests remotely on a cloud webdriver grid provider such as UI-licious, use the following code to initialise the WebDriver object:

// Replace the URL with the URL to your webdriver grid given by your service provider
URL url = new URL("https://project_id:access_key@webdriver.uilicious.com/wd/hub");
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(url, capabilities);

If you want to run a test locally on chrome, use the following code instead initialise the WebDriver object:

ChromeDriverService service = new ChromeDriverService.Builder().build();
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(service);
