The document discusses using Jenkins with Selenium for automated testing, outlining definitions and basic functionalities of both tools. It highlights the limitations of running Selenium tests directly on Jenkins and introduces the benefits of using Selenium Grid for parallel execution and support for various operating systems. A step-by-step guide for setting up a simpler Selenium Grid is also provided.

Introduction

3. What is Jenkins?
Jenkins is an open source continuous integration server. It support hundreds of
different building, deploying and automation types through plugins.

4. Supported by all major browser vendors:
What is Selenium?
Free and open source browser automation framework.

5. Run Selenium Tests
A simple Selenium test case:
[Test]
public void TestWithFirefox()
{
IWebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(TestUrl);
Assert.IsFalse(string.IsNullOrEmpty(driver.Title));
driver.Quit();
}

6. Run Selenium Tests
Configure Jenkins to run the test (nunit):

7. • Tests run directly on the Jenkins Server machine
• Not suitable for bigger test suites
• Testing with different operating systems not possible
• Tests can not run in parallel
Run Selenium Tests
Problems with this solution:

8. Using Selenium Grid

9. Using Selenium Grid
Simple change to the existing test case:
[TestMethod]
public void TestWithFirefox()
{
DesiredCapabilities capability = DesiredCapabilities.Firefox();
IWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(HubUrl, capability);
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(TestUrl);
Assert.IsFalse(string.IsNullOrEmpty(driver.Title));
driver.Quit();
}

10. Using Selenium Test
No change to Jenkins necessary!

11. • Tests run on distributed machines
• Suitable for bigger test suites
• Nodes on different operating systems possible
• Tests can run in parallel
Using Selenium Grid
Selenium Grid is scalable:

12. Simpler Selenium Grid Setup
Setup a Selenium Grid in 3 Steps (no requirements)!
1. Install BrowseEmAll Trial
2. Select necessary browsers
3. Start Grid
