How to run Selenium automation tests on HyperExecute (using JUnit framework)

Pre-requisites
- Download HyperExecute CLI
- Configure Environment Variables
Auto-Split Execution with JUnit
Matrix Execution with JUnit
Secrets Management
Navigation in Automation Dashboard

Pre-requisites

Before using HyperExecute, you have to download HyperExecute CLI corresponding to the host OS. Along with it, you also need to export the environment variables LT_USERNAME and LT_ACCESS_KEY that are available in the LambdaTest Profile page.

Download HyperExecute CLI

HyperExecute CLI is the CLI for interacting and running the tests on the HyperExecute Grid. The CLI provides a host of other useful features that accelerate test execution. In order to trigger tests using the CLI, you need to download the HyperExecute CLI binary corresponding to the platform (or OS) from where the tests are triggered:

Also, it is recommended to download the binary in the project's parent directory. Shown below is the location from where you can download the HyperExecute CLI binary:

Configure Environment Variables

Before the tests are run, please set the environment variables LT_USERNAME & LT_ACCESS_KEY from the terminal. The account details are available on your LambdaTest Profile page.

For macOS:

export LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
export LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY

For Linux:

export LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
export LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY

For Windows:

set LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
set LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY

Auto-Split Execution with JUnit

Auto-split execution mechanism lets you run tests at predefined concurrency and distribute the tests over the available infrastructure. Concurrency can be achieved at different levels - file, module, test suite, test, scenario, etc.

For more information about auto-split execution, check out the Auto-Split Getting Started Guide

Core

Auto-split YAML file (yaml/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml) in the repo contains the following configuration:

globalTimeout: 150
testSuiteTimeout: 150
testSuiteStep: 150

Global timeout, testSuite timeout, and testSuite timeout are set to 150 minutes. The runson key determines the platform (or operating system) on which the tests are executed. Here we have set the target OS as Windows.

runson: win

Auto-split is set to true in the YAML file.

 autosplit: true

retryOnFailure is set to true, instructing HyperExecute to retry failed command(s). The retry operation is carried out till the number of retries mentioned in maxRetries are exhausted or the command execution results in a Pass. In addition, the concurrency (i.e. number of parallel sessions) is set to 4.

retryOnFailure: true
maxRetries: 5
concurrency: 4

Pre Steps and Dependency Caching

Dependency caching is enabled in the YAML file to ensure that the package dependencies are not downloaded in subsequent runs. The first step is to set the Key used to cache directories. The directory m2_cache_dir is created in the project's root directory.

env:
  CACHE_DIR: m2_cache_dir

# Dependency caching for Windows
cacheKey: '{{ checksum "pom.xml" }}'
cacheDirectories:
  - $CACHE_DIR

Steps (or commands) that must run before the test execution are listed in the pre run step. In the example, the Maven packages are downloaded in the m2_cache_dir. To prevent test execution at the pre stage, the maven.test.skip parameter is set to true so that only packages are downloaded and no test execution is performed.

shell: bash

pre:
  - mvn -Dmaven.repo.local=$CACHE_DIR -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean install

Post Steps

Steps (or commands) that need to run after the test execution are listed in the post step. In the example, we cat the contents of yaml/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml

post:
  - cat yaml/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml

The testDiscovery directive contains the command that gives details of the mode of execution, along with detailing the command that is used for test execution. Here, we are fetching the list of class names that would be further passed in the testRunnerCommand

testDiscovery:
  type: raw
  mode: static
  command: grep 'public class' src/test/java/hyperexecute/*.java | awk '{print$3}'

Running the above command on the terminal will give a list of scenarios present in the feature files:

SelPlayGroundTest1
SelPlayGroundTest2
ToDoTest

The testRunnerCommand contains the command that is used for triggering the test. The output fetched from the testDiscoverer command acts as an input to the testRunner command.

testRunnerCommand: mvn `-Dmaven.repo.local=$CACHE_DIR `-Dtest=$test test site surefire-report:report

Artifacts Management

The mergeArtifacts directive (which is by default false) is set to true for merging the artifacts and combing artifacts generated under each task.

The uploadArtefacts directive informs HyperExecute to upload artifacts [files, reports, etc.] generated after task completion. In the example, path consists of a regex for parsing the site and sure-fire reports (i.e. target/site/ and target/surefire-reports/) directory.

mergeArtifacts: true

uploadArtefacts:
 - name: Final Report
   path:
    - target/site/**
 - name: Surefire Report
   path:
    - target/surefire-reports/**

HyperExecute also facilitates the provision to download the artifacts on your local machine. To download the artifacts, click on Artifacts button corresponding to the associated TestID.

Now, you can download the artifacts by clicking on the Download button as shown below:

Test Execution

The CLI option --config is used for providing the custom HyperExecute YAML file (i.e. yaml/win/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml for Windows and yaml/linux/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml for Linux).

Execute JUnit tests using Autosplit mechanism on Windows platform

Run the following command on the terminal to trigger the tests in Java files with HyperExecute platform set to Windows. The --download-artifacts option is used to inform HyperExecute to download the artifacts for the job. The --force-clean-artifacts option force cleans any existing artifacts for the project.

./hyperexecute --config yaml/win/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml --force-clean-artifacts --download-artifacts

Execute JUnit tests using Autosplit mechanism on Linux platform

Run the following command on the terminal to trigger the tests in Java files with HyperExecute platform set to Linux. The --download-artifacts option is used to inform HyperExecute to download the artifacts for the job. The --force-clean-artifacts option force cleans any existing artifacts for the project.

./hyperexecute --config yaml/linux/junit_hyperexecute_autosplit_sample.yaml --force-clean-artifacts --download-artifacts

Visit HyperExecute Automation Dashboard to check the status of execution

Shown below is the execution screenshot when the YAML file is triggered from the terminal:

Matrix Execution with JUnit

Matrix-based test execution is used for running the same tests across different test (or input) combinations. The Matrix directive in HyperExecute YAML file is a key:value pair where value is an array of strings.

Also, the key:value pairs are opaque strings for HyperExecute. For more information about matrix multiplexing, check out the Matrix Getting Started Guide

Core

In the current example, matrix YAML file (yaml/junit_hyperexecute_matrix_sample.yaml) in the repo contains the following configuration:

globalTimeout: 150
testSuiteTimeout: 150
testSuiteStep: 150

Global timeout, testSuite timeout, and testSuite timeout are set to 150 minutes. The target platform is set to Win. Please set the [runson] key to [mac] if the tests have to be executed on the macOS platform.

runson: win

The matrix constitutes of the following entries - classname. The entries represent the class names in the test code.

matrix:
  classname: ["ToDoTest", "SelPlayGroundTest1", "SelPlayGroundTest2" ]

The testSuites object contains a list of commands (that can be presented in an array). In the current YAML file, commands for executing the tests are put in an array (with a '-' preceding each item). The Maven command mvn test is used to run tests located in the current project. In the current project, parallel execution is achieved at the class level. The maven.repo.local parameter in Maven is used for overriding the location where the dependent Maven packages are downloaded.

testSuites:
  - mvn `-Dmaven.repo.local=$CACHE_DIR `-Dtest=$classname test site surefire-report:report

Pre Steps and Dependency Caching

Dependency caching is enabled in the YAML file to ensure that the package dependencies are not downloaded in subsequent runs. The first step is to set the Key used to cache directories. The directory m2_cache_dir is created in the project's root directory.

env:
  CACHE_DIR: ~/m2_cache_dir

cacheKey: '{{ checksum "pom.xml" }}'
cacheDirectories:
  - $CACHE_DIR

Steps (or commands) that must run before the test execution are listed in the pre run step. In the example, the Maven packages are downloaded in the m2_cache_dir. To prevent test execution at the pre stage, the maven.test.skip parameter is set to true so that only packages are downloaded and no test execution is performed.

pre:
  - mvn -Dmaven.repo.local=$CACHE_DIR -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean install
