Set up your first Java test with JUnit

See our JUnit example repository for a simple example on how to run JUnit tests in parallel on TestingBot.

Below is a JUnit test example, showing you how to run a JUnit test on TestingBot

Copy code
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.*;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class SimpleTest extends TestCase {
	private WebDriver driver;

	@Before
	public void setUp() throws Exception {
		DesiredCapabilities capability = new DesiredCapabilities();
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "chrome");
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_VERSION, "latest");
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME, "WIN10");

		Map<String, Object> testingBotOptions = new HashMap<>();
		testingBotOptions.put("name", "Testing Selenium");
		capabilities.setCapability("tb:options", testingBotOptions);

		this.driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
		   new URL("https://key:secret@hub.testingbot.com/wd/hub"),
		   capabilities);
		driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
	}

	@Test
	public void testSimple() throws Exception {
		this.driver.get("https://www.google.com");
		assertEquals("Google", this.driver.getTitle());
	}

	@After
	public void tearDown() throws Exception {
		this.driver.quit();
	}
}

Configuring capabilities

To run your existing tests on TestingBot, your tests will need to be configured to use the TestingBot remote machines. If the test was running on your local machine or network, you can simply change your existing test like this:

Before:
Copy code
FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
After:
Copy code
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
	new URL("https://key:secret@hub.testingbot.com/wd/hub"),
	DesiredCapabilities.firefox()
);

Specify Browsers & Devices

To let TestingBot know on which browser/platform/device you want to run your test on, you need to specify the browsername, version, OS and other optional options in the capabilities field.

1. Select a Platform
2. Select a browser
Copy code

Testing Internal Websites

We've built TestingBot Tunnel, to provide you with a secure way to run tests against your staged/internal webapps.
Please see our TestingBot Tunnel documentation for more information about this easy to use tunneling solution.

The example below shows how to easily run a JUnit test with our Tunnel:

1. Download our tunnel and start the tunnel:

Copy code
java -jar testingbot-tunnel.jar key secret

2. Adjust your test: instead of pointing to 'hub.testingbot.com/wd/hub' like the example above - change it to point to your tunnel's IP address.
Assuming you run the tunnel on the same machine you run your tests, change to 'localhost:4445/wd/hub'. localhost is the machine running the tunnel, 4445 is the default port of the tunnel.

This way your test will go securely through the tunnel to TestingBot and back:

Copy code
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.*;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class SimpleTest extends TestCase {
	private WebDriver driver;

	@Before
	public void setUp() throws Exception {
		DesiredCapabilities capability = new DesiredCapabilities();
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "chrome");
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_VERSION, "latest");
		capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME, "WIN10");

		Map<String, Object> testingBotOptions = new HashMap<>();
		testingBotOptions.put("name", "Testing Selenium");
		capabilities.setCapability("tb:options", testingBotOptions);

		this.driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
		   new URL("http://key:secret@localhost:4445/wd/hub"),
		   capabilities);
		driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
	}

	@Test
	public void testSimple() throws Exception {
		this.driver.get("https://www.google.com");
		assertEquals("Google", this.driver.getTitle());
	}

	@After
	public void tearDown() throws Exception {
		this.driver.quit();
	}
}

Run tests in Parallel

Parallel Testing means running the same test, or multiple tests, simultaneously. This greatly reduces your total testing time.

You can run the same tests on all different browser configurations or run different tests all on the same browser configuration.
TestingBot has a large grid of machines and browsers, which means you can use our service to do efficient parallel testing. It is one of the key features we provide to greatly cut down on your total testing time.

Please see our Parallel JUnit documentation for parallel testing.

Queuing

Every plan we provide comes with a limit of parallel tests.
If you exceed the number of parallel tests assigned to your account, TestingBot will queue the additional tests (for up to 6 minutes) and run the tests as soon as slots become available.

Mark tests as passed/failed

To see if a test passed or not in our member area, or to send additional meta-data to TestingBot, you need to use our API.

TestingBot has a Java client for using the TestingBot API.

Once included with your tests, you can send back test status and other meta-data to TestingBot:

Copy code
import com.testingbot.testingbotrest.TestingbotREST;

@After
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
	TestingbotREST r = new TestingbotREST("key", "secret");
	Map<String, String> data = new HashMap<String, String>();
	data.put("success", "1");
	data.put("name", "My Test");
	r.updateTest(driver.getSessionId(), data);
	driver.quit();
}

Other Java Framework examples

  • Parallel JUnit

    By running multiple JUnit tests at the same time you can cut down on overall test time.

  • Selenide

    Run tests with TestNG and Selenide.

  • TestNG

    TestNG is a framework similar to JUnit and NUnit, which supports some additional commands and features.

  • TestNG + Cucumber

    Run tests with TestNG and BDD Cucumber.
