static Webdriver instance synchronization in java

Question

GlobalVariables class holds different variables which are used across my framework one of them is WebDriver instance:

  public class GlobalVariables
                 


        

Answer 1

You are getting this because of how JVM handles static members and methods.

You can't have a static webdriver object if you are going to run in parallel.
