TestingBot provides a cloud of browsers and devices, ready to run your Automated, Live and Visual tests.
Today we've added support for NodeJS Selenium testing on our Selenium grid. Installation of our plugin is easy by using NPM (Node Package Manager).
As mentioned before on this blog, we use a homemade utility to take screenshots of browser windows. Our tool, built in C#, will take a screenshot of any browser window on Windows.
It's been a busy week on TestingBot, here's what we did this week:
Updated our grid from Selenium 2.15 to 2.16, the changelog reads:
Today we're examining the captureNetworkTraffic selenium command, a little known gem in Selenium's command list.
Selenium offers a feature, captureNetworkTraffic, which allows you to intercept the network traffic as seen by the browser running your test. The response includes headers, status codes, timings and AJAX requests. It's especially useful if you're debugging requests in your browser.
We have just finished optimizing the video recording in our Selenium grid. Implementing this was harder than we thought, so here are some tips on how we implemented this.
After some more optimisations in our code and infrastructure we've now reached the point where the average simple test takes 9 seconds.
Compared with competitors, we're 2 to 3 times faster in running your test.
We've just finished upgrading our Selenium grid (the hub and all its RC nodes) to Selenium v2.15.0 This upgrade should provide improved stability.
Selenium is the industry standard for automatically testing websites in browsers. A selenium test is a set of instructions that will be sent to a browser of your choice.
With the start of this new website we provide every developer a powerful tool to run cross browser tests in the cloud.
Running Selenium tests across various browsers has never been easier with our plugins, example code and easy to use grid.
