Maven and Selenium?
Is anyone using Selenium for functional testing of webapps? After
hearing about it a while ago, I finally had a chance to see it in
action at a NFJS show last weekend. Of course, the first order of
business was getting it to work with a Maven build.
Selenium is not in a Maven repository that I could find, so I
installed the zip in my local repository with mvn install:install-file
... -Dpackaging=zip.
I added a profile which uses dependency-maven-plugin to unzip the
Selenium distribution under 'target', and maven-antrun-plugin to copy
both the selenium 'core' directory and my src/test/selenium folder
containing the tests into the webapp.
The pom with the configuration (profile id=selenium) is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/shale/framework/trunk/shale-apps/pom.xml
(That pom also has the Cargo plugin configuration which starts Tomcat
and deploys the app.)
More information on installation and how to run the tests for Shale
Mailreader can be found here:
http://shale.apache.org/shale-apps/selenium.html
Suggestions and questions are welcome. :) I didn't find anything in
the archives, but I can't possibly be the first one to do this...

Right, the 2.x website is not deployed yet.
jWebUnit is a young and promissing project.

Personally, I hit the wall wilth HTMLUnit and had to move to Selenium
RC. The problem was that HTMLUnit had problems as soon as I upgraded
from Tapestry 4 to Tapestry 4.1 due to the inclusion of Dojo
libraries. I assume these will be fixed eventually, but I am much
happier having my tests run in the actual browser (even on a headless
linux box!) and it really helps to see what is going when stepping
through in the debugger.
I get the selenium server from openqa's repository, copy it into my
maven build area with the dependency plugin, then start and stop it on
the pre-integration-test and post-integration-test phases using
antrun.

Hi,
It's true that jWebUnit API is not easier than Selenium-RC API (except some very usefull assertions). But one of it's main advantage is to be compatible with different testing engines. Once your tests are written with jWebUnit, they could be executed thanks to HtmlUnit on your integration server each night. And for example, before each delivery, you could run them with Selenium to check compatibility with your customer's web browser.

Hi,
I understand that Selenium by design requires a full-fledged browser,
but isn't that also one of its greatest features? By running your
tests using FF or IE, you can be sure they do work in their target
environment, regardless of browser bugs.
So yes, the htmlunit approach makes testing easier to integrate with
CI, but it doesn't give you the same results. This may be acceptable
for many simple testcases though.
I just looked over the jWebUnit 2.x website very quickly, so I may be
missing something. But how is test case writing with jWebUnit easier
than using Selenium's IDE or DSL syntax?
Cheers,
-Ralph.

Hi Daniel,
Some advantages of using jWebUnit to test a web application are:
- easier test case writing,
- faster test case running,
- No graphic server is needed with the engine "htmlunit", so the
integration into a continuous integration system is easier (no browser
is needed),
- Soon, you will use an engine for Selenium to run your tests
directly in your browser.

It's been a while since I looked at jWebUnit, and I'm currently using
Selenium; what is the advantage of using jWebUnit as you describe

Hi ,
A snapshot repository is available at: http://maven.openqa.org/
Have you try jWebUnit (http://jwebunit.sourceforge.net/index.html)
instead of Selenium for your functional tests? With jWebUnit, you can
run your tests with different engines as htmlunit or Selenium (the
Selenium engine is available trough SVN). You will use the htmlunit
engine to execute your tests in a background mode (continuous
integration) and the selenium engine in a visual mode.
