Set up your first HTML Suite test

TIP: If you want to run tests created with Selenium IDE, it is much easier and faster to use our TestLab.

You can use the official Selenium IDE Firefox addon to build a Selenium test in HTML Format.

  • Record your test with the IDE addon, then save the testsuite as an HTML file.
  • Upload the testsuite file and the test file to your server.
  • Start a session with:
    Copy code
    curl http://hub.testingbot.com/selenium-server/driver/ -d 'cmd=getNewBrowserSession&client_key=CLIENT_KEY&client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET&1=firefox&2=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F'
    The response will be your session ID.

Use the sessionID in the request below, make sure the 3rd parameter points to the suite file you have uploaded.

Copy code

				curl http://hub.testingbot.com:4444/selenium-server/driver/ -d 'cmd=runHTMLSuite&1=firefox&2=https://www.google.com&3=http://mydomain.com/googlesuite.html&4=true&5=htmloutput.html&sessionId=[INSERT_SESSION_ID]&client_key=CLIENT_KEY&client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET'
