TestNG Automated Testing

See our TestNG example repository for a simple example on how to run TestNG tests on TestingBot.

TestNG is a framework similar to JUnit and NUnit, which supports some additional commands and features.
You can find more info about TestNG on the TestNG website.


To run your first test with TestNG, please follow the simple example below.


Example code

import java.net.URL;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Platform;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
import org.testng.Assert;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class TestingBotTest {
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeClass
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
        DesiredCapabilities capabillities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
        capabillities.setCapability("version", "latest");
        capabillities.setCapability("platform", Platform.WINDOWS);
        capabillities.setCapability("name", "Testing Selenium");

        driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
                new URL("https://api_key:[email protected]/wd/hub"),capabillities);
    }

    @Test
    public void testSimple() throws Exception {
        driver.get("https://testingbot.com/");
        String searchHeader = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("H1"))
                .getText().toLowerCase();

        Assert.assertTrue(searchHeader.contains("Browser Testing"));
    }

    @AfterClass
    public void tearDown() throws Exception {
        driver.getSessionId()
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Send test details back to TestingBot

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.

Configuring capabilities

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



Before 
FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

After 
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
new URL("https://key:[email protected]/wd/hub"),
  DesiredCapabilities.firefox()
);

To see how to do this, please select a combination of browser, version and platform in the drop-down menus below:


1. Select a Platform
2. Select a Browser


Testing Internal/Staged 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 TestNG WebDriver test with our Tunnel:


1. Download our tunnel and start the tunnel:

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:


import java.net.URL;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Platform;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
import org.testng.Assert;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class TestingBotTest {
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeClass
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
        DesiredCapabilities capabillities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
        capabillities.setCapability("version", "latest");
        capabillities.setCapability("platform", Platform.WINDOWS);
        capabillities.setCapability("name", "Testing Selenium");

        driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
                new URL("http://api_key:[email protected]:4445/wd/hub"),capabillities);
    }

    @Test
    public void testSimple() throws Exception {
        driver.get("https://testingbot.com/");
        String searchHeader = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("H1"))
                .getText().toLowerCase();

        Assert.assertTrue(searchHeader.contains("Browser Testing"));
    }

    @AfterClass
    public void tearDown() throws Exception {
        driver.getSessionId()
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Other Options

We offer many other test options, for example: disable video recording, specifying a custom Firefox Profile, loading Chrome/Firefox/Safari extensions, running an executable before your test starts, uploading files, ...
See our list of test options for a full list of options to customize your tests.

Parallel Testing

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.


Parallel Testing Example

To run a test on different browsers at the same time, you will need to create a testng.xml file and create a testcase that uses parameters (org.testng.annotations.Parameters). Please see the example below: 


package tb;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterClass;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.Assert;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;

import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.OutputType;
import org.openqa.selenium.TakesScreenshot;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.Augmenter;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;

public class TestCase {

  private WebDriver driver;


  @BeforeClass
  @org.testng.annotations.Parameters(value={"browser","version","platform"})
  public void setUp(String browser, String version, String platform) throws Exception {
    DesiredCapabilities capability = new DesiredCapabilities();
    capability.setCapability("platform", platform);
    capability.setCapability("browserName", browser);
    capability.setCapability("version", version);
    driver = new RemoteWebDriver(
      new URL("api_key:[email protected]/wd/hub"),
      capability);
  }

  @Test
  public void testSimple() throws Exception {
    driver.get("http://www.google.com");
    System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
    Assert.assertEquals("Google", driver.getTitle());
    WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
    element.sendKeys("TestingBot");
    element.submit();
    driver = new Augmenter().augment(driver);
    File srcFile = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
    try {
      FileUtils.copyFile(srcFile, new File("Screenshot.png"));
    } catch (IOException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }

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

Now you need to create a testng.xml file which will provide the test cases with parameters (browser combinations): 


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite thread-count="3" name="Suite" parallel="tests">
  <test name="FirstTest">
  <parameter name="browser" value="firefox"/>
  <parameter name="version" value="latest"/>
  <parameter name="platform" value="MAC"/>
    <classes>
      <class name="tb.TestCase"/>
    </classes>
  </test> <!-- Test -->
  <test name="SecondTest">
  <parameter name="browser" value="chrome"/>
  <parameter name="version" value="latest"/>
  <parameter name="platform" value="WINDOWS"/>
    <classes>
      <class name="tb.TestCase"/>
    </classes>
  </test> <!-- Test -->
  <test name="ThirdTest">
  <parameter name="browser" value="safari"/>
  <parameter name="version" value="latest"/>
  <parameter name="platform" value="MAC"/>
    <classes>
      <class name="tb.TestCase"/>
    </classes>
  </test> <!-- Test -->
</suite>

Queueing

Every plan we provide comes with a limit of concurrent VMs (how many tests you can run in parallel).
For example: if you have a plan with 5 concurrent VMs, it is possible to start more tests. TestingBot will queue the additional tests and run the tests as soon as slots become available.

Send test details back to TestingBot

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 an open-sourced Java client for using the TestingBot API.
