selenium-grid-1.0.4 and "SeleniumException: Timed out" (need help badly :( )

2009-11-23T04:07:26Z

Hi,

I am relatively new to selenium grid and currently trying to use the selenium-grid-1.0.4 for my test suit.

I have worked with selenium rc and seems to be working at my end also the internet connection is good.

But when i am trying to run the examples in the above elenium gridmy tests are not at all getting executed.

Instead all the sessions are always getting timed out with the following exception. I also tried to change in the time out values in the java code, compiled it and ran the test suit again but still the problem persists.

com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: Timed out after 120000ms at com.thoughtworks.selenium.HttpCommandProcessor.throwAssertionFailureExceptionOrError(HttpCommandProcessor.java:97) at com.thoughtworks.selenium.HttpCommandProcessor.doCommand(HttpCommandProcessor.java:91) at com.thoughtworks.selenium.DefaultSelenium.open(DefaultSelenium.java:335) at com.thoughtworks.selenium.grid.demo.GoogleImageTestBase.runFlickrScenario(GoogleImageTestBase.java:16) at com.thoughtworks.selenium.grid.demo.WebTestForASingleBrowser.domme(WebTestForASingleBrowser.java:52) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:650) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:675) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) ...

Any comment with this regard will be really a great help.

Thanking You.

problem with xpath in Selenium RC. Can't click

Hi everyone,

1.

2.

And I used Selenium IDE to identify locator of 2 links. And I have 2 locators:
1.
locator1 = "//a[matches(@href, 'acct_edit\?sessionID=[\w]*&a=" + Name + "')]"
With Name = aaa

2.
locator2 = "//a[matches(@href, \"javascript:acct_del('cus\?sessionID=[\w]*','" + name + "');\")]"
with name = aaa

And I playback with 2 locators only locator1 executed well. and locator2 is not found

I don't know what happend. Please help me...

Re: Permission denied to get property Location.href

2009-11-16T22:36:37Z

I had this problem when trying to get YAHOO.util.History (from the Yahoo UI or YUI project) to work on my site.

The problem you're having is described here:

http://seleniumhq.org/docs/05_selenium_rc.html#the-same-origin-policy

I swear, I read that doc ten times, and although it describes exactly this problem, it doesn't contain the details of the two solutions provided.

To use option [1] that they describe, add "-proxyInjectionMode" as a parameter when starting the selenium-core jar. To use option [2], try using "iehta". This paragraph in the link above seems really important:

In Selenium-RC 1.0 beta 2 and later use *firefox or *iexplore for the run mode. In earlier versions, including Selenium-RC 1.0 beta 1, use *chrome or *iehta, for the run mode. Using these run modes, you will not need to install any special security certificates; Selenium-RC will handle it for you.

You'll want to pass that in when you initialize Selenium. So in Ruby I create Selenium by doing:

@selenium = Selenium::SeleniumDriver.new("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.usedisbetter.com/", 10000);

Re: Maximize size of remote control browser launcher

2009-10-27T12:59:58Z

Hi,
Read the post Maximize browser window on my blog. I have just the code you need.

R-24 wrote:

Hi

As the selenium RC browser launches as a size smaller than a maximized application I am getting a javascript error. I can fix this by making the size of the testRunner frame bigger. However, this is inconvenient as I have to do it for every test. Is there a way that I can launch the tests so that the frame is maximized from the beginning??
Thanks in advance

When I run my test using Selenium RC, I want to display & maximize the browser so that I can see the test in action, just like demo.
Is there anyway I can do this programmatically ? Because during test, the browser always stays minimized until I click & maximize it manually. I've checked windowMaximize and windowFocus method but I can't find the right window name to pass as parameter.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: How to get text (Title) from multiple links?

The only way I know to solve that is to use the getHtmlSource() method and then parse all the HTML code to get what you want. It's not the fastest but it should solve your problem.

What is Selenese?

2009-03-26T08:23:17Z

Hello,

I'm familiar with OpenQA's line of Selenium Projects,

but the word Selenese keeps intermittently showing up, and I haven't found a simple definition or explanation of what it is? Is it an extension of some sort for Selenium? Or is it synonym for Selenium? Or is it a deprecated way of saying Selenium?

Any input much appreciated!

Hi Rory,

I am also facing the same problem but a bit different.
The popped up window, appear due an ajax call.

I have used the wait condition for an element available on the popped up window after a sleep statement which is enough.

The test still fails as neither the IDE nor the RC are able to recognize elements on the popped up window.

Please revert back if any ways are out there.

Thanks in advance,
Hrushikesh.

R-24 wrote:

Hi,

I have been experiencing the same problems with it not being able to find certain elements in time. I read somewhere (cant remember where sorry) that Selenium does not know when an AJAX action is complete, so you cant use ClickAndWait for example as it will just timeout.

The way around this is to use a pause, for say 10000 milliseconds. This is not ideal, and takes time, but it will ensure the AJAX command is finished.

Hope this helps,

Hi All,
I have following automation running in my env.

Re: Selenium Embedded Jetty (version problems)

2008-08-05T14:38:24Z

I've been having the same problem. My application requires Jetty 6.1.7 but Selenium requires 5.1.10. The maven package names changed for Jetty between 5.X and 6.X. As a result, two different versions of Jetty are being included in my classpath, and both contain the class org.mortbay.util.UrlEncoded. My app is failing on a call to UrlEncoded.decodeTo(). I'm trying to figure out a way to specify the classpath order in maven so that I can have 5.1.10 appear first, but based on what I've read thus far, it doesn't seem possible.

I'm hoping that a new version of Selenium will come out that uses the Jetty 6.X libraries.

In the mean time, I may have to remove UrlEncoded from the 6.1.7 library so that the one in 5.1.10 is the first one that is found.

And also because maven seems to be figuring out a transitive dependency to jetty 5.1.10.

Has anyone come across and solved this problem before?

GWT clicking ...

2008-03-25T09:07:47Z

Some clicks in GWT applications do not actually send a click event to
the widget in question. The workaround is to do mouseMove(),
mouseDown(), and mouseUp().

Something we may characterize as 'full click'

Could we have fullClick as a JS function (and obviously in all the
drivers).

- Paul

PS - I'm pairing with Alex Chaffee and feel a greater affinity to
'analClick' as a function name.

Progress towards Selenium 2.0

2008-03-25T03:55:21Z

This seems like the proper place to have this discussion :)

What are the steps that we'll need to do to roll WebDriver into the Selenium codebase? Right now, there seem to be a few practical and logistical things that need doing (in no particular order):

* Change the package name. What should this be? "org.openqa.selenium"? "org.openqa.selenium.webdriver"?
* Decide where to host the code, wiki and forums. The obvious answer is here on OpenQA, but I do enjoy the lightweight environment of Google Code, particularly the wiki and the issue tracking
* Complete the WebDriver-backed Selenium implementation. This implies fixing at least three things in webdriver: handling alerts, allowing timeouts and providing a mechanism to inject javascript into a page
* Create a Selenium-backed WebDriver implementation. This may need some work on Selenium Core
* Create WebDriver bindings for ruby, python and .net (at least) Those are the ones I can manage (in that I know the language) but other bindings would be nice too
* Roll some of the webdriver features into the existing selenium rc. Suggestions include the new Firefox profile management "stuff" and the firefox socket listener

As we discuss this, I propose continuing development on google code, but to do the package rename ASAP (since that's the most disruptive thing for users)

Is there anything else that people think should be done? And is anyone interested in helping? :)

"Borrowing" the Wait class

2008-03-25T03:44:44Z

Just a quick question: one of the increasingly common requests about webdriver is for an implementation of something like the "Wait" class from Selenium RC (that is, the ability to wait until a certain condition has been met). Would there be any objection to my including that class in the webdriver "support" jar?

tests we run in the build: some currently commented out; could we enable them?

2008-03-24T11:36:04Z

Here’s what we have now:

clients/java/pom.xml:63: **/ClientUnitTestSuite.java

clients/java/target/selenium-server/META-INF/maven/org.openqa.selenium.server/selenium-server-coreless/pom.xml:66: **/UnitTestSuite.java

server-coreless/pom.xml:66: **/UnitTestSuite.java

Other test suites are referred to but commented out:

clients/java/target/selenium-server/META-INF/maven/org.openqa.selenium.server/selenium-server-coreless/pom.xml:67: commented out: **/ServerTestSuite.java-->

clients/java/pom.xml:65: commented out: **/ClientDriverSuite.java

clients/java/pom.xml:66: commented out: **/ClientDriverPISuite.java

server-coreless/pom.xml:67: commented out: **/ServerTestSuite.java

In none of these latter cases is it explained why the suite is commented out. Let’s make it a convention to note in the comment what our motivation is (e.g., “this test is unreliable on Mac and Linux”).

I’d like to enable every test that is reliable, and for the others, either fix them or file bugs to note that they are broken and represent work that should be done. At that point, the comments in the code would be updated to refer to these JIRA bugs. Sound reasonable?

On my system:

1. ServerTestSuite works

2. ClientDriverSuite is broken (due to across-the-board failures in the RealDealIntegration test)

3. ClientDriverPISuite is broken (due to TestType failing)

Does anyone know of other problems (e.g., failures which only show on other platforms)?

And before I change anything in the pom’s, I need to get on the list of individuals who are alerted when the build fails. Can someone please educate me as to how I can accomplish this?

Thank you!

selenium coverage report?

2008-03-23T00:05:53Z

Do we have coverage reports anywhere?

Last week I didn't do any work on SRC. Internal users are requesting that various features be added, by and large still on the topics outlined in the doc I shared with y'all during the developer days. Yes, we're encouraging them to register here and start voting for issues.
This next week and next I also won't get any SRC done; 'regular' job work this week and spring break (read: kids not in school) next week. Hopefully April will show more contributions.
