I need to implement a parallel testing feature to my tests, I found these three; Spoon, Cucumber(parallel-cucumber) and Selendroid(Selenium grid). But I searched for some information about them and I couldn't find it anywhere...
Spoon: Do it run in Webviews?
Cucumber: do it work with both UIAutomator and Espresso?
Selendroid: do it also run with UIAutomator and Espresso?
I'm not familiar with UIAutomator and Espresso but I am familiar with Cucumber.
The steps you implement in Cucumber are regular Java methods. If you can use UIAutomator or Espresso from regular Java methods, then yes. You are able to use UIAutomator and Espresso with Cucumber-JVM.

Karate framework and TestNG
(1 answer)
Closed last year.
We have implemented cucumber with rest assured for API automation. Recently we came to know Karate giving advantages when compared with Rest assured. So I thought of recommend to my organization to use Karate, hence I have prepared sample to API automation scripts with Karate. Yes, I can execute very well with JUnit, but same testrunner file if I tried to execute with TestNG am unable to execute at all, displaying Test runs are zero after my execution.
Could you please help me is there any way to run Karate runner file with TestNG framwework. Really your answer going to make us decision.
I have gone through various posts which are related TestNG with Karate. But unluckily am unable to trigger my scripts.
Note: I have extended KarateRunner class and used #KarateOptions as well in my code.
TestNG is needed only for development mode. All teams finally need to do CI and here Karate does not need even JUnit, please refer this: https://github.com/intuit/karate#parallel-execution
Now for development mode - even if you insist on using TestNG, you can mix JUnit into the same project: https://stackoverflow.com/a/19928639/143475
Please give up trying to use TestNG for Karate, it is un-necessary and a waste of your time. Also note that we have IDE support which is what most developers will use. Even the JUnit support is not needed most of the time.
Is there an open source tool available to control the running of BDD cucumber tests?
We are developing BDD cucumber tests and would like the option to control the tests when running them (start/stop/pause/restart) using an open source (or proprietary) test tool.
The short answer it, yes.
The somewhat longer answer is that it depends on your echo system.
If you are using Java, then any build tool will be sufficient. That is Maven, Gradle or similar. These are easy to integrate in your Continuous Integration, CI, environment. With a tool chain like that, you are able to execute Cucumber on every build and will always know if your system works or not.
Yes , but in small scope (Automation tests) and less process control related to run and control tests ,In high scope with multiple branches and projects i think you have to move to Jenkins with full control.

I want to start my automation project from scratch, as per requirements I have to use Behavior Driven Approach for testcase authoring and selenium for Automation. please suggest best suited framework.
You can check open source QMetry Automation Framework for web (selenium-webdriver) and mobile (appium) automation. It has all the features driver management, parallel execution, run configuration you want and many more like data-driven testing, data-bean, locator repository, integration with third party tools (CI, Test Management tools etc).
It support BDD, keyword-driven and coded (TestNG test) approach for authoring test cases. So you can opt bdd for test authoring.
You also will find inbuilt bdd steps ready to use for selenium webdriver and rest-webservices with the framework.
You can start by downloading blank project from git which uses ANT and IVY. If you want to use maven you can download qaf-blank-project-maven.
For getting started follow step-by-step-tutorial
I just moved into web testing using Selenium and have been learning Selenium WebDriver + Java.
My question is, why do I need to build a test framework when TestNG is there?
What is there that TestNG cannot do as a framework?
Nothing :-)
More seriously, TestNG is very popular with Selenium users for a variety of reasons, among which support for:
Dependencies (very convenient to test pages that follow each other).
Parameterization with #DataProvider (useful to test various combinations of browsers and user agents).
Parallel tests (lets you test on multiple browsers simultaneously).
Check out the Selenium forums for more information and feel free to email the testng-users list if you have questions.
Yes, I think TestNG is enough as a web test framework. If you are familiar of using JUnit, It is easier to switch into TestNG
Building a custom framework may be necessary at times.
And you can use TestNG for that. :)
How to do testing and is there something similar like Rack::Test with ruby frameworks?
You can use Specs, ScalaTest and JUnit (and any other java test framework), theres some examples on the new wiki.
Read this!
I don't know much about ruby, so maybe don't get your point. But what about Jitr?
Jitr (pronounced "jitter") is a JUnit
Integration Test Runner.
It allows your web application
integration tests to easily run
against a lightweight web container in
the same JVM as your tests.
You can use it with JUnit 4's #RunWith annotation. In Scala: #RunWith(classOf[Jitr]).
This may be of help, it's on Lifts wiki pages. There are examples using Junit, Scalatest and and Specs.
