Circle CI Automated Testing

Circle CI is a continuous integration service in the cloud.

It is very easy to use the TestingBot Selenium grid together with Circle CI.


Below are the steps to run your Selenium tests via Circle CI, once the tests are up and running you can even display a TestingBot Status badge showcasing your Selenium tests status.

Get Circle CI up and running

Sign up at Circle CI and connect your GitHub project with Circle CI.


Example circle.yml file: 
machine:
  ruby:
    version: 2.0.0-p0
  environment:
    SELENIUM_HOST: hub.testingbot.com
    SELENIUM_PORT: 80
    TB_AUTOMATE_PROJECT: "Run on circleCI"
    TB_AUTOMATE_BUILD: "build No. $CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM for circleCI"
    SELENIUM_PLATFORM: WINDOWS
    SELENIUM_BROWSER: IE
    SELENIUM_VERSION: 9

test:
  override:
    - bundle exec cucumber

We recommend that you save your TestingBot Key and Secret via the Circle web interface.
This makes sure your credentials are not available to anyone else.


Once you've saved your Key and Secret, you can access them via Environment Variables, for example if you saved them under the name TB_KEY and TB_SECRET: 


require 'selenium/webdriver'

url = "http://#{ENV['TB_KEY']}:#{ENV['TB_SECRET']}@hub.testingbot.com/wd/hub"

capabilities = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.new

capabilities['project'] = ENV['TB_AUTOMATE_PROJECT'] if ENV['TB_AUTOMATE_PROJECT']
capabilities['build'] = ENV['TB_AUTOMATE_BUILD'] if ENV['TB_AUTOMATE_BUILD']

capabilities['platform'] = ENV['SELENIUM_PLATFORM'] || 'ANY'
capabilities['browser'] = ENV['SELENIUM_BROWSER'] || 'chrome'
capabilities['browser_version'] = ENV['SELENIUM_VERSION'] if ENV['SELENIUM_VERSION']

browser = Selenium::WebDriver.for(:remote, :url => url, :desired_capabilities => capabilities)

Before do |scenario|
    @browser = browser
end

at_exit do
    browser.quit
end
