GitLab CI Automated Testing
GitLab CI/CD is a part of GitLab and provides a Continuous Integration system to run automated tests.
Below are the steps to run your Selenium tests via GitLab CI, once the tests are up and running you can even display a TestingBot Status badge showcasing your Selenium tests status.
1. Get GitLab CI up and running
Download GitLab CI and set up GitLab CI to your requirements.
2. Create a simple Selenium test
Add a simple Selenium test to your GitLab project, modify the .gitlab-ci.yml file in your repository to indicate you want to run a Selenium test.
Example .gitlab-ci.yml file:
image: node:latest
stages:
- Test TestingBot
Selenium Test:
stage: Test TestingBot
before_script:
- npm install
script:
- node sample_test.js
Add your TESTINGBOT_KEY and TESTINGBOT_SECRET environment variables to GitLab's Variables Page.
npm -i selenium-webdriver --save
var webdriver = require('selenium-webdriver'), driver;
driver = new webdriver.Builder().
withCapabilities({
'browserName': 'firefox',
'platform': 'VISTA',
'version': 'latest',
'client_key': process.env.TESTINGBOT_KEY,
'client_secret': process.env.TESTINGBOT_SECRET,
'name': (process.env.CI_JOB_ID ? ("GitLab Build " + process.env.CI_JOB_ID) : "Simple Test")
}).
usingServer("https://" + testingbotKey + ":" + testingbotSecret +
"@hub.testingbot.com/wd/hub").
build();
driver.get('https://www.google.com');
driver.getTitle().then(function (title) {
console.log("title is: " + title);
});
driver.quit();Now you're ready to run this first sample test with GitLab CI.
