Selenium Question

-          Assume, given web application is accessible in one Machine ( IP : 10.10.10.10)

-          You need to write selenium tests and run.

-          You are not allowed to install / download any software except browser in IP: 10.10.10.10.

How you do you achieve this?                                                 

Analysis:

-          We can start coding in our local laptop , later we can think about executing tests.

-          To find out locators ( xpaths / css / etc) , connect to the machine IP 10.10.10.10 via remote desktop and fetch as much info as needed.

Now Execution part,

-          When we execute our test in local, tests should run in the IP 10.10.10.10.

-          This can be achieved via selenium GRID.

-          Create a node in IP 10.10.10.10 and connect to a HUB ( either in your laptop / IP 10.10.10.10)

-          Write Remote web driver code instead of plain webdriver.

Just hit run. That’s all.
