I am trying to test my application using Selenium tool via the Hudson plugin

  • 0

I am trying to test my application using Selenium tool via the Hudson plugin (the one called sleniumhq plugin).

As a proof of concept I decided to make a very simple test targetting google, the test is the one below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1  /DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head profile="http://selenium-ide.openqa.org/profiles/test-case">
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
    <link rel="selenium.base" href="" />
    <title>New Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" border="1">
    <thead>
        <tr><td rowspan="1" colspan="3">New Test</td></tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
        <td>open</td>
        <td>/</td>
        <td></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td>waitForPageToLoad</td>
        <td>3000</td>
        <td></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td>type</td>
        <td>q</td>
        <td>selenium rc</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td>click</td>
        <td>btnG</td>
        <td></td>
        </tr>
    </tbody></table>
</body>

This test opens Google then searches for selenium rc.

When I run it using Hudson I get HTTP error 403 in the opened browser.
There is no specific error raised by Hudson or Selenium.

Here is my Hudson configuration:

browser : *iehta

startUrl : http://:4444/selenium-server/

suiteFile : suite.html (suite pointing to the test described before)

resultFile: result.html

other : -timeout 5 -debug -browserSideLog -ensureCleanSession -trustAllSSLCertificates

htmlSuiteRunner : C:\selenium\selenium-remote-control-1.0.1\selenium-server-1.0.1\selenium-server.jar

Do you guys have already faced such an issue? Is it linked to user rights definition or something?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    I’m not familiar with Hudson, but that startUrl doesn’t look right. Are you meant to have the IP address of the Selenium RC server in there? For example: http://10.100.1.1:4444

    Also, if you are using the latest version of Selenium (1.0) then the browser should be set to ‘*iexplore’ for Internet Explorer in HTA mode.
