I'm trying to integrate my selenium automation project with Jenkins using ANT build tool.
I've successfully configured a job and I'm able to BUILD too, but my scripts didn't launch the application and perform the test steps as expected. But still I could see the console output as 'BUILD SUCCESS'...!
When I tried to execute the ANT build through command prompt, it got executed appropriately by launching the application and performing required test steps. So expected the same to happen in Jenkins job as well, but it's not happening so.
Please help me in fixing this issue....!
Note: I have followed the steps given in the post below for integrating Jenkins & Selenium-
http://www.ontestautomation.com/running-selenium-webdriver-tests-in-jenkins-using-ant/
Make sure of two things
Configure Ant: Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Ant installations
Invoke Ant: Jenkins > Job > configure > Build > invoke ant targets
Followed the steps below to overcome the issue I logged/faced:
1) Upgraded the Chrome to latest version
2) Ensured 'Allow service to interact with deskop' is checked - refer to the post below for more information:
Jenkins windows slave service does not interact with desktop
3) Initiated the Jenkins through command prompt (Jenkins should be stopped in services.msc when we do this) in traditional way....

I'd like to Integrate Ranorex to Jenkins and i have 2 staff i'd like to check
- First should only on the slave where the Ranorex automation should be triggered that Jenkins is not started as a service or on both master and slave
- Second i'm working with JenkinsFile pipline and i'd like execute Renorex test from this script (jenkinsfile) but i couldn't found any solution any ideas
Thanks a lot :P
I can help you with the first question you have:
The Jenkins service must be executed only on the machine where the automated tests are to be executed. You must also have Ranorex installed on that machine with a runtime license available. Jenkins can be configured to provide continuous integration, so each time you update the source code from Ranorex Jenkins will be able to automatically compile the solution and run the automated test.
Ranorex has an add-on that you can install in Jenkins to integrate the run configurations in order to be launched.
I have created a Jenkins maven task to run selenium tests on one project, and now I want to use these selenium test in a proper way for CI.
Actually, I have a Jenkins task which 1-builds the project, 2- uses sonar, 3 - deploys the project. I would like to add the selenium tests to this process. The question is: can I run the selenium tests before deployment? Is it necessary to do a previous deploy for the selenium tests before the real deployment? Is there anyway to simulate a deployment or something like that so I can run the selenium tests?I would appreciate If you could advise me on how to do or any plugin which could help me.
As per my understanding, To deal with the scenario you should run the selenium test on QA environment. If all test pass then deployment should start for staging etc.
Additionally, once the deployment is done on staging, then selenium script should run again, test staging and if something went wrong then rollback from staging should be happened.
I never tried it but you can use below github plug-in for deployment(in case you are using github) :-
https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/GitHub+plugin
If you are using SVN then use below :-

Hope it will help you :)
Currently, I am doing automation UI tests with testcafejs for React project.
I would like to run these tests in continuous integration environments such as Jenkins. I already add browserStack plugin to run them locally with different browsers and operating system.
However, I would like to integrate them into Jenkins but not always consuming browserStack quota for daily checks. Any suggestions for how to run them within different browsers in Jenkins?
TestCafe has an extensive command line interface that allows it to fit well in any popular continuous integration system.
Here are instructions on how you can integrate TestCafe with Jenkins. The up-to-date KB article can be found in this documentation topic for the TestCafe Open Source version:
Integrating TestCafe with Jenkins CI System
If you are using the legacy TestCafe version (version 15.1), you can use the following KB article:
How to integrate TestCafe with Jenkins
You may also wish to check the TestCafe plugin for Jenkins that attaches screenshots and videos to the Jenkins test results page.
Step 1 - Fetching Test Code From a Repository
Here, we will use tests published in a separate repository on GitHub - ci-integration-demo. If you use a different version control system, search for a plugin that integrates it with Jenkins.
Open your project and choose Configure from the right pane.
Scroll down to the Source Code Management section and select Git, then specify the Repository URL.
Step 2 - Adding a Command to Install TestCafe
Go to the Build section, find a step that builds you application and add a new step right after it. To do this, click Add build step and select a step type that runs a shell command.
In the Command box, type the following.
npm install testcafe testcafe-reporter-xunit
This command installs the main testcafe module and a plugin that saves test run reports in the xUnit format.
Step 3 - Adding a Command to Run TestCafe
Add another step that executes a shell command after the previous one. This step will run TestCafe.
Type the following command.
node_modules/.bin/testcafe chrome tests/**/* -r xunit:res.xml
This runs TestCafe tests from the tests directory in Google Chrome. Test results are saved to the res.xml file in the xUnit format.
Step 4 - Publishing Test Run Reports
Go to the Post-build Actions section and click Add post-build action. In the drop-down list, select Publish JUnit test result report.
In the Test report XMLs field, specify the test report file: res.xml.
Step 5 - Run the Test
Click Save and you will be navigated to the Project page.
Hit Build Now to build the project immediately.
Step 6 - View Test Results
In the Build History section of the Project page, click a build and select Test Results from the drop-down menu.
Jenkins will display a test run report where you can see general information about testing results. You can click individual tests for details.
I would like to schedule task which is login to a partner site and prolongs a license. I found that it can do Selenium. After I faced issue with scheduler and found article here http://www.learnseleniumtesting.com/ about Jenkins configuration. Now I cannot understand how to run test from selenium in Jenkins. Is there need good knowledge in python or java ? Also I found that RC standalone selenium server is deprecated and avoided to be using now. Is there need deep diving into using these tools for executing 5-7 action on site ?
I feel that Selenium is great for doing any tasks that you may find yourself doing over and over again. For "prolonging a license" on a partner site I think this is the perfect tool for you. We setup Jenkins to run certain Selenium tests after each commit and other Selenium tests every night. If you need me to go into more detail about how the setup looks I would be glad to show you more details.
Adding Jenkins build information to help show how we did it.
1) The first step is to get a build in Jenkins that will compile any code you have and deploy a war if needed with something similar to the following: mvn -P release clean test package. We set ours to build #midnight shown in the picture below.
2) After this build finishes it triggers the next job to run this command shown in the image below: mvn -Dtest -P smokeTest clean verify
I have selenium webdriver script, and i want to run the script in jenkins. how to configure in jenkins. what steps i need to fallow? i am new to jenkins, can any one tell me the step by step procedure to fallow.
If you're running Jenkins on a unix machine, create a new job:
Click on New Job, Type a name and click on Build a free-style software project
Then add a 'build' step called 'Execute shell'. (For windows you can use Windows Batch command).
Using that you can run the selenium standalone server jar to execute the your selenium script.
For example:
java -version && java -jar /Applications/SeleniumRC/selenium-server-standalone-2.12.0.jar -trustAllSSLCertificates -htmlSuite "*googlechrome" "https://user:password#www.example.com/" "examplesuite.html" "result_file.html"
Other option would be to go to Configure Jenkins -> Configure Plugins and install Hudson Seleniumhq plugin and use the build step provided by them when configuring the jenkins job.
You might also want to create a Post-build Action to show reports. If you install Selenium HTML report plugin from the aforementioned Manage Plugins page, you can then add 'Publish selenium report' Post-build step.
