The PHPUnit Selenium driver will execute each test command from your file and send it to the Selenium server, which does the job of launching the appropriate browser, opening web pages, and performing various specified actions and closing the browser after the test completes. Now that PHPUnit is installed and the Selenium RC server is up and running, its time to run our test we saved before in our ‘Example.php’ file.

The PEAR channel () is used to distribute PHPUnit so make sure that it is registered with your local PEAR environment:Īfter the channel is registered install PHPUnit: An easy way to install PHPUnit is to use the PEAR installer. Make sure you keep this server running till you finish testing.ġ. Now the server is ready to accept test commands from your PHP script. Start the Selenium RC server from the command-line by issuing the following command:ĥ. I copied it to my PHP installations bin directory.Ĥ.

After extracting the files from the archive copy the ‘selenium-server.jar’ file to any directory you feel appropriate. First make sure you have a Java runtime installed on your machine.ģ.

Selenium RC is a Java based command line server that starts browsers and runs commands you pass from your tests.ġ. If this happens please notify me or you can find the new xpath using the Xpather plugin. Note: This site uses ‘delicious’ as an example, so even some minor changes made by them to their site will render the xpath invalid, throwing an ‘element not found’ error in selenium. XPather retrieves the xpath to the specified element, which you can than use in your test code. After you download and install the addon, restart Firefox, right-click on any element and from the context menu select ‘Show in XPather’. An easy way is to use the XPather Firefox addon to get the xpath of any element on a page. You don’t have to rake your brains to find an xpath to an element. The complex looking line is an xpath expression to the results element: The function ‘getText’ returns the text found at the element specified in the expression. What the code basically does is it initializes the browser to ‘chrome’ (you can set the browser to your preference by changing to ‘*iexplore’ or ‘*firefox’) sets the baseurl to ‘’ and runs the test.Įverything may look fine to you except maybe the last line – ‘$this->getText…’. Say if you change the class name to ‘Delicious’ make sure that you also change the file name to ‘Delicious.php’. Make sure that the file name and the class name are the same, here ‘Example’. setBrowser ( "*chrome" ) $this -> setBrowserUrl ( "" ) } function testMyTestCase ( ) ?>īefore we proceed a few points to consider. This is what we will get in the ‘Example.php’ file. From the file menu select ‘Export Test Case As…’ and as we are using PHP, select ‘PHP – Selenium RC’. The interesting part comes now – running the same test from PHP. If this was all there was I wouldn’t be really writing this post. After the test is successfully completed this is what you should see in the log pane. Onwards…īefore running this test make sure that you are logged out of Delicious. Now this may not look like a test for you, but it is just an exercise in using Selenium, you will surely apply it to a good test case. Reads the total number of bookmarks from the results page as shown below

Then it searches by the keyword ‘selenium’ģ. So what exactly does this test do? Simple:ġ. If you are on a slow internet connection than it may help to slow the test speed. After doing this your IDE should like below. In the source tab replace the default HTML with the one from the above file. I’ve already created a small Selenium test that you can use. In this part we will use Delicious as our test target. In this part we will see how to use the test generated using the IDE with Selenium RC and PHPUnit. In part 1 of this tutorial you have seen how to write a simple web test using Selenium.
