selenium-grid

I am setting up Selenium Grid server and I have done successfully on my local machine and I'm wondering how to give the hostname so if other tester wants to register to the hub they should be able to do that, here is what I have done so far: on my local machine (assuming I will be allowing other tester to register the node here) Starting a Hub on my local machine: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.21.0.jar -hub Starting a Node java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.21.0.jar -role node -hub localhost:4444/grid/register I view the status of the hub: localhost:4444/grid/console Now, my

I'm having trouble launching Cucumber test with Chrome using remote webdriver capabilities on Grid (1 linux hub and 1 linux node with Firefox and Chrome). Firefox test go very well but Chrome returns the following error: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally (Driver info: chromedriver=2.2,platform=Linux 3.2.0-23-generic-pae x86) (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information) java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException Command duration or timeout: 20.67 seconds Build info:

I have taken latest Selenium Server which is 2.45.0 from here . Followed the documentation and started the hub with the following command java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.45.0.jar -role hub -hubConfig HubConfigFile.json And, the JSon file content is: { "host": 10.5.0.21, "port": 4444, "newSessionWaitTimeout": -1, "servlets" : [], "prioritizer": null, "capabilityMatcher": "org.openqa.grid.internal.utils.DefaultCapabilityMatcher", "throwOnCapabilityNotPresent": true, "nodePolling": 5000, "cleanUpCycle": 5000, "timeout": 300000, "browserTimeout": 0, "maxSession": 5, "jettyMaxThreads":-1 }

I am using RemoteWebDriver from Selenium 2 and Grid to divide my tests on several virtual machines. Let's say I have two Linux machines and in a test I specify the capabilities to run on a Linux machine, I can't figure out which of these two machines is being used. Is there any way, to figure it out? Something like driver.getServerIp() or anything else? The reason is, in my Selenium test code I want to start a bash script on the console of the linux machine where the test is being run. Therefore I have to know on which machine the test runs. Thanks guys! My java skills aren't the greatest and

Is it possible to know which node the selenium grid hub assigned to your test? My tests need to talk to other services on the node machine in order to perform configurations which are not supported by selenium. Mark Generally you shouldn't rely on knowing what machine your test is running on. Grid 2 provides a series of callback listeners that you could implement to provide machine configuration. But, if you really want to see what node a test is running on, you could use one of the API calls. Both endpoints can be found on the hub: http://localhost:4444/grid/api/proxy http://localhost:4444
