Question

I have a test script as follows, what I need to know is how I can make it to run in different browser at same time but with different test data,

Exactly what I want is I want parallel instance of Test Case one in Firefox and other in Internet Explorer, but again I want to use different data for it

Eg:
-Firefox with ‘username1’ and ‘password1’

-Internet Explorer ‘username2’ and ‘password2’

it is like logging into GMAIL with different usernames and password parallel in different browser but not in sequence.

Test Case :

public class Gmail 
{
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeClass
    public void setup()
    {
        driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.get("http://www.gmail.com");
    }

    @Test
    public void search()
    {
        WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("username"));
        element.sendKeys("username");
        WebElement element2 = driver.findElement(By.name("pass"));
        element2.sendKeys("password");
        element2.submit();
    }

    @Test
    public void compose()
    {
        driver.findElement(By.name("compose")).click();
    }

    @AfterClass
    public void exit()
    {
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Please give your suggestion would help in my project.

Steps to do this:

1. Pass the required values as parameters in testNG.xml – in your case you need browserName, userName & password.

2. Create 2 separate “test” tag in testNG.xml with different userName & password parameter

      <test name="Test on FF">
       <parameter name="browserName" value="Firefox" />
       <parameter name="userName" value="user1" />
       <parameter name="password" value="pass1" />
      <classes>
         <class>name="Gmail"</class>
        </classes>
      </test>
      <test name="Test on IE">
       <parameter name="browserName" value="IE" />
       <parameter name="userName" value="user2" />
       <parameter name="password" value="pass2" />
        <classes>
         <class>name="Gmail"</class>
        </classes>
      </test>
   

3. Define “suite” tag as <suite thread-count="2" name="Suite" parallel="tests">

4. Access and use those in your @Test method by @Parameters ({"browserName","userName","password"}) and instantiate corresponding driver
