Can i use that selenium java code to build it in VSTS - selenium

I have hybrid framework , which is selenium with java in eclipse. Can i use that whole code to build it in VSTS

Yes, you can. If the Hosted agent doesn’t meet the requirement(s) (such as Chrome: Install headless chrome on hosted build servers), you can set up the private agent on your local machine and do build and test with this agent.
Deploy an agent on Windows

Running EdgeDriver in Jenkins

I have Selenium tests that I am running through Jenkins on a build server. The tests all run as expected in Chrome (using ChromeDriver) and Firefox (using FirefoxDriver). However, the tests don't run in Edge using EdgeDriver.
When the tests run it gives an error:
Microsoft Web Driver can't be used with the Built-In Administrator account or while User Account Control is turned off.
I have tried turning UAC on, but that no effect. I tried running the Jenkins service as a different user and that also had no effect. I've tried the suggestions from: MicrosoftWebDriver fails when constructing while running under TeamCity agent's windows service
I can run the tests in the same location from a command prompt, just not through Jenkins.
If you configure jenkins slave agent as a windows services, Will get the issues. Because Edge won't run as a headless browsers.
For avoid those issues. we are not suppose to set a slave agent as window services.
Follow the below steps for setup slave agent and then run your script:
***** Then download the agent.jar and place it under jenkins working directory("D:/Jenkins")
***** Open the command prompt as admin user and execute the commands.
java -jar agent.jar -jnlpUrl http://srv-cbe-com4:8080/computer/T/slave-agent.jnlp -secret 07ba92bb8017901287acb979cf30d40a45c17abd2c0edba5b2b3f17cc94915e8 -workDir "D:/Jenkins"

Browser is not launching even test is running through Jenkins on ubuntu

I am trying to launch browser for automation testing(selenium) using jenkins on ubuntu OS. Test are running properly but browser is not launching seems like it is running headlessly.
I am able to fix this using this solution -
Added Xvfb plugin and added DISPLAY variable.
Running jenkins.war
from console using java -jar jenkins.war
As I know in Windows OS by checking "Allow service to interact with desktop" while jenkins installation we can fix this. So Is there any way we can do this on ubuntu by updating some configuration so we don't have run jenkins.war from console everytime.
There are two ways to facilitate the launch of browser on ubuntu OS.
1.First way - Configure your Jenkins nodes and add the ubuntu machine. Add the sshing details(username-password OR RSA key) of the target machine. This configuration is recommended if you are in cloud.
2.Second way(not recommended on cloud environments) -You have to run a Selenium standalone-Server (a standalone node), and register your remote WebDriver to it.
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://ipOfUbuntuMachine:port/wd/hub"), capability);

Automate testing with out installing anything on client machine

We have a requirement to automate testing on website with out installing anything on client machine(including with out running driver in client),
I have gone through grid model in selinum, but there we need to run webdriver on client machine which I can't do.
So, I need suggestions how can I automate web site with out installing or running jar or dll on client machine.
I am looking for any possibility injection of automation script from server machine to client.
Try Sikuli Automation tool.
you don't need to install sikuli application in your client machine.
Import sikuli libs with java program - http://sikulix-2014.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq/030-java-dev.html
Export your program as executable jar and use it in your client machine

Timeout while trying to contact RemoteTestNG in Selenium on Mac

I have a TestNG setup running on Eclipse Indigo 20120216-1857 and TestNG for Eclipse v2.0. Dev environment is Mac OSX 10.8.2. Target is a web server running on Ubuntu 12.04.
Error: 'Couldn't contact the RemoteTestNG client. Make sure you don't have an older version of testng.jar on your class path.'
This error only happens when i'm running selenium scripts. not on my other api oriented test cases. I have selenium-server-standalone-2.25.0.jar running.
This same setup is working on my windows 7 dev environment.
This is a brand new eclipse setup and workspace on the mac.
I had met same question. I hope my resolved method can help you.
Method:
Please open Eclipse->Preferences->Then click TestNG->Restore Defaults
root reason: I had use ReportNG instead of testng default report,but after that I forgot to restore config. So when I make a new project,run as TestNG,but not add ReportNG jars, it report error.

Possible to register Selenium RC's with the Hudson Selenium Grid Hub w/o the RC's being slaves in the Hudson cluster?

I am trying to get Hudson to run my ruby based selenium tests. I have installed the Selenium Grid plugin, but I don't want to have the RC's running as slaves in a Hudson cluster. The reason for this is I don't want to waste the next six years of my life trying to configure each of my projects in various Windows environments.
Hudson currently pulls each project from Github and builds it just fine. With a regular Selenium Grid setup, I am able to edit the grid_configuration.yml file to represent the various environments I wish to tests against, then pass environment variables to the rake task that runs the test i.e. which browser/platfom to run on and the URL of the application under test -- usually a port on the hub machine running in a specific environment.
In this way, the machines on which the RC's run don't need to know anything about the source code of my apps, they just need to have selenium-grid installed and have registered with the hub.
Is there a way of elegantly emulating this with Hudson?
do you have a concept of build agents, I do not know much about Hudson. We are using Anthill Pro at work and we have set up an Ahtill Pro agent. The source code is downloaded to the agent and the agent is responsible to run the maven goal for running the tests. It works pretty well for us as the RC machines are not part of the build environment. the tests are responsible to talk to Selenium HUB and get new sessions and do the testing.
I hope this helps.
Cheers
Haroon
I chose to not use the plugin in order to take advantage of the newer Grid version. I cloned a few VMs with a startup script that runs ant launch-remote-control from a shared drive that they can all access. Hudson doesn't have, and doesn't need any access to the Grid nodes and they aren't slaves to Hudson. I altered my Hudson server to launch the hub on machine startup. This setup allows me to run the grid normally with or without Hudson.
