You need a framework to work with Selenium before g

Write some simple coding to run your automation sc

browsers. Though there are many frameworks available i

we would consider Eclipsehere which is again an open sis also well known tool which is behave same like STS. And

no change in configuration area if you are using Eclipse.

Now, it is the time to select a language to

go ahead. We would prefer Java and thus,

give you guidelines accordingly.

First Download Selenium Libraries

For Selenium Webdriver you should get linkon location displayed in image.

The actual work will start now.

Open Eclipse tool.

1. Create one Java Project from the path

2. Enter project name and select location to save the

project

3. ClickNext button once it enable.

4. ClickLibraries tab.

5. Click dd External Jars button.6. Select the Client Driver Java Jar file from the computer

location you just download.

Once you done w

you can start writscripts. Added jar

Java Project. Class file can be created from the path

If you are scared to write test cases in class, then Selenium IDE is the

It will create class code for you for that you just need to understan

record the actions for which automation script is require.

Selenium IDE This is a Firefox Add-on (download it here). Selenium IDE and install.

IDE supports only Firefox hence we are using Selenium RC to run al

scripts on different browsers. You can export recorded steps into

Now its time to run test case. Run is possible in many ways. One of the easiest ways is JUnit.

JUnit is used to run code internally which is mostly used by developer. You can use it like this:

Right click on Class file

Select Run s

JUnit Test

There is one more tool available

which is used for report

creation and mostly used by

Testers named as TestNG.

2. Click Add button3. Enter name as TestNG and location as http://beust.com/eclipse.

4. Click OK button.

5. Check TestNG checkbox and click Next button.

6. Finish the process.

7. Restart the STS or Eclipse to take effect.

TestNG can be used to create selenium report in some good format for a

cases. For that you need to configure it in your project. Configuratio

adding a jar file for TestNG into your project and installing it in Framewo

Keep in mind that while you are running

script with TestNG, your selenium should

start before. TestNG provides facility to run

all test cases at same time. For that you need

to create one XML file. XML file will look like

The problem you will face is the format of code that you write for selenium

uses its own coding standard to interact with selenium or any other langsimple to understand so we will also use the same for some example.
