Question

How to run webdriver tests in Selenium Grid linux and firefox. After setting up the selenium Grid and registering the node with the hub when i try to run the below code throws class not found error, any thoughts.

    URL server = new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub");

    DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
    capabilities.setBrowserName("firefox");

    System.out.println("Connecting to " + server);

    RemoteWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(server, capabilities);

    driver.get("http://www.google.com");

    driver.quit();

Satish, check the error in stack trace. It says

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.app.tests.RemoteTest

This is NOT a selenium exception. Your class file RemoteTest is not in the classpath.You need to set it in the classpath.
