I am kind of addicted to your channel. Thanks for clear concepts.

[@Mukeshotwani]

So nice of you mate

[@rkn3383]

For the first time I created grid and two nodes local machine node and remote node and also execute through hub and specific node. Thanks very much Mukesh.

[@Mukeshotwani]

Nice work! RK

[@javeethnisarahamed7972]

Excellent Mukesh.. Instead of learning theoretically, this video explained lot of Grid concepts in a simple way. Thanks a lot for your support.

[@Mukeshotwani]

Thanks Ahamed I am glad it helped you :)

Hey Jay thank you . Keep watching.

[@MohitSharma-fs1qz]

Hi Mukesh, I'm trying to automate parallel testing using Selenium Grid. My question is - With 1 VM(Hub, in this case)can I connect it to different WiFi (Nodes, in this case) routed through different IP (each WiFi line has a specific IP)address and ports?

[@sravanipasam6204]

Nice info Mukesh, I want to execute my test in devices and desktop browsers at a time then how to set capabilities and do we need to mention any configurations in testng. Xml .first how to use it please help me

[@arunab1624]

Hi Mukesh, your vedios are awesome and very very useful for me..thanks a lot

[@Mukeshotwani]

thank you Aruna :) I m glad you liked all.

[@SauravKumar-xj4lm]

I am trying to execute through maven project but i am getting this issue: No main manifest attribute can you please help me . Thanks in advance .

[@SagarAjmire1]

Hi Mukesh, In one of ur video u have associated only one jar of selenium (may be selenium-server.zip), instead of around 23 jars, which we get after extracting "selenium-java.zip". But I forgot which video it was in, as I have watched many of them. So how to decide which one to use and when? And also for Selenium Grid, u have used "selenium-standalone-server". So, are "selenium-standalone-server" and "selenium-server.zip" common for all languages like python, java, c#?

[@fullstack101]

Awesome explanation!

[@Hrudhitha10]

nice bro. i learn new things from this video thank you so much :)

[@Mukeshotwani]

Thanks buddy

[@rajeshsingla335]

Which cloud is best for usage? Do we have any comparison? Also, in any organization, automation would be run mainly on Staging/test envs. than running on production env. Any one would love to know the impact if any feature is going to break on different browsers on different platforms/versions before the release. How can we achieve it? Any thoughts?

[@sonammittal3498]

Hi Mukesh, I want to schedule my selenium grid project into jenkins. Please help on how to achieve this. Please create a video for this, on how to execute selwnium grid commands (create node/hub) through jenkins.

[@chethu30]

Thank you so much Mukesh. It really helped me. Can you please give an example of executing multiple nodes where we can execute in two OS

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Mate, You can just create multiple nodes and rest hub will take care.

[@anilkumarmaram6821]

Hi Mukesh, Am getting below error while configuring standalone server and role hub in command prompt. Error- (port 4444 is busy, please choose a free port for the hub and specify it using -port option) .

[@sumitkumar-os7cr]

Hi Mukesh I have followed same steps my node and hub is up and running .... but on console it keep saying sessionnotcreated exception: unable to create new remote session ... pls help

[@kroe761]

Hello Mukesh, great video! Thanks a Lot for the wonderful info. Do you know how to set up a selenium grid that runs the same test in parallel over multiple platforms at the same time? This can be either in BrowserStack or other machines, it doesn't matter. Can I run the sample google test on Chrome AND Firefox at the same time? Additionally, I see that the Selenium Grid Standalone Server is now on version 3.0. Do you know of any drastic differences in 2.0 vs 3.0? Thanks a lot!

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Kevin, There is not much changes in Selenium 3 only some drivers added and some old fixes. To run same test in multiple machine you can create 2 node. Example - Node1 for Win and Node 2 for MAC and then register them to hub. While executing test you can pass which system to take for running.

[@elvenpath7]

Very clear explanation thank you. Is it possible to use testng with this approach ?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Yes with thread count and parallel attribute in TestNG

[@yashdewangan8450]

Hi Mukesh, Thanks for making such a informative video. would be nice if you can guide us in your next video for integration Browserstack with maven and cucumber. Thanks

[@kasunherath2173]

Hi I get the following error when the test is executed Unable to create new service: GeckoDriverService Build info: version: '3.141.59', revision: 'e82be7d358', time: '2018-11-14T08:25:53' System info: host: 'PYXLE-000354', ip: '169.254.74.239', os.name: 'Windows 10', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '10.0', java.version: '1.8.0_181' Driver info: driver.version: unknown Command duration or timeout: 51 milliseconds

[@PoojaPanchal12]

How would I be able to run tests on multiple machines if need to connect to the client's VPN to be able to access the web application? Will it suffice if the hub and nodes are on the same network?

[@i-techtutor2738]

File upload from desktop by using autoit sikuli and robot supported in browser stack ..if yes mean pls specify setup ..if no mean recommend alternative way

[@SauravKumar-xj4lm]

Hello mukesh , when i execute the jar the i am getting this issue: no main manifest attribute.

[@350avinash]

very good video, Really helpful

[@manoranjanmoharana9901]

Hi Mukesh, Thanks for this excellent piece of information. I have a question- How can we enable remote execution setup in cloud for any application which is accessible in organization’s own network. eg I am working in a project where we test on the testing environment of a web app which we can access in company’s intranet only How same site can be tested in cloud

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Moharana you need to set proxy tunnel to access internal site, which cloud u use? SauceLab and BrowserStack provide this feature.

[@rajalakshmis201]

Hi Mukesh, thanks for your guidance for testers like us, your knowledge sharing and clear explanation helps us lot thankyou. one request voice is very low in few videos it would be good volume better.

[@TomalKundu]

Hi, Mukesh i am getting this (Selenium build info: version: '3.4.0', revision: 'unknown') issue while setting up grid hub in command prompt

[@gauravsaikia7462]

Hi Mukesh, while using BrowserStack in grid environment how the nodes getting registered to my hub. Normally we are registering each nodes to the hub but here how we are doing it. Because here in cloud nodes we are not running any java -jar commands

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Gaurav in cloud all these setting are done wit nodes and hub so we just need hub url which is provided by BrowserStack.

[@arunab1624]

Hi mukesh, Can you upload a video for SVN tutorial.How Testers use this tool?.......plzzz

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hey Aruna sure will upload soon.

[@MrAdikhare]

you have not added any line for a firefox driver , how it is running with out the statement, without driver initialization?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Aditya, earlier there was no drivers was needed for FF but now its mandatory to use Gecko driver.

[@veeraratna]

Thanks Again Mukesh

[@Mukeshotwani]

Welcome Ratna. Happy weekend.

Thanks, Happy weekend

[@harmanmaan870]

nice very informative , thanks

[@namrathanayak3608]

Hi Mukesh Sir, Very nice video.. Thanks for sharing the knowledge. But I have one query, is it possible to run native mobile applications using this selenium Grid?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Namaratha if it is on cloud then yes

[@mysvasi]

Hi Mukesh , Very good and understandable video for running a for remote servers if you want to run it in different client server not localhost any pre-requisites are required or only creating a node is enough

[@Mukeshotwani]

Only node with driver is enough to run on remote machines.

[@zainubbehl5946]

Hi Mukesh, Really appreciate this video. But I am getting session not created exception. Could you please help me.

[@Mukeshotwani]

Thanks Zainub. Can you please add exception logs and explain your scenarion?

[@zainubbehl5946]

Actually sir i was able to run my script on grid. I was trying to run your script only which u hv in your blog. Its a maven project. Now i want to run selenium grid on jenkins. I passed my my batch file which has hub and node commands in post build section . Its opening hub only and getting stuck there . Doesn't open node. Is this the right way to run grid on jenkins. Or there is another way?. Do i have to pass grid config in json file ? Is it possible for you to send me the code for grid config in jenkins ? Thanks

[@rohitranjan7322]

Hi sir thanks for video...i have a question , what is the minimum setup required in node machine(like Eclipse, jdk,selenium- server-satndalone..etc to execute program using grid???

[@Mukeshotwani]

HI Rohit, for node machine only Selenium node should be configured with drivers path. Note- Java is must for Selenium grid. Eclipse only need if you want to write the test.

[@esakkivash_n]

Hey bro, You can use selenium- server-standalone with drivers, That's enough!

[@ajaylachipathruni1438]

Hi Mukesh, Thank you so much, you helped me a lot in learning selenium. I am working on windows7(both hub and node are on same machine) however it is showing OS as VISTA, program executed successfully. Could you please let me know why it is showing OS as VISTA while i am working on windows7 ?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Yes for 7 it takes Vista until you dont mention :)

Hey Mukesh how can I run cucumber framework which consists of feature files and scenario so let's say I want to run three feature file out of 5 and want to run particular scenario in feature file so how to set browser stack

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Adita you can use @Tag for Cucumber

[@lohithmatam7789]

Hi Mukesh please tell me how to do cross platform in grid... Need a command ... Getting missing parameters from hub error

[@JAIMEJESUS89]

Hello Mukesh: So I can run now the code into BrowserStack, but... How can I run or open more than one Virtual machine in the same execution? It is the same code but I need to run it in many virtual machines... Need I create one class for each virtual machine? Or how can I do it?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Jaime, if you have multiple virtual machines then all has to be connected as node in Selenium hub. While running the test you need to pass only hub url and selenium hub will distribute the test according to input parameter like browser platform.

[@JAIMEJESUS89]

Thank you @@Mukeshotwani I resolve this using TestNG xml like a principal and then this go to call the number of classes that I have implemented. Also I had to start 1 node in CMD for each 5 classes to chrome.

[@abhilashgursale8816]

Hi Mukesh, Thank you for the video. I dont think anyone can explain selenium grid more perfectly then this. So i tried executing my test cases by setting up browserstack. But since i am using internet from my office it requires a proxy to connect to the URL. So is there any additional configuration required when connections are made through proxy? because when i run the test case i get error: Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure. Build info: version: '3.4.0', revision: 'unknown', time: 'unknown' Caused by: org.apache.http.conn.HttpHostConnectException: Connect to hub-cloud.browserstack.com:443 [hub-cloud.browserstack.com/5.255.92.202] failed: Connection refused: connect i tried to ping the URL "hub-cloud.browserstack.com" and the IP "5.255.92.202" but it failed.So we can see there is some problem with connection. normally i can access the URL. It would be great help if you can help on this.Thanks in advance. i confirmed that the URL is right which we provide to the remotewebdriver

Hi Mukesh, Could you just provide theoretical knowledge on how to run different test cases on different nodes. How we decide particular number of test cases to be executed in particular node. I know with the help @Tag we can run tests parallel. I want to know how we can decide to run particular test cases in particular node or how we distribute the test cases to node.

Hi Maheshwer which selenium version you are using? If it is Selenium 3 then you have some changes in Syntax while creating node.. Let me know what syntax you are using to create node..

[@maheshwerreddy6442]

Selenium-3.13.0

Hi mukesh,I tried to execute selenium grid program as per your instructions,but I am getting this exception:: FAILED: test1 org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.gecko.driver system property; for more information, see github.com/mozilla/geckodriver. The latest version can be downloaded from github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases

[@bharatvarshney2666]

Hi Sudha, you download geko driver from www.seleniumhq.com

[@sudhakamble]

Hi Bharat I already downloaded gicko from ssleniumhq.org .also added the path in system.setproperty.still getting this error .let know how to go ahead

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Sudha you have to add all driver path (Chrome, IE, Gecko ) in node machine while creating node itself. Example java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.45.0.jar -role node -Dwebdriver.ie.driver=.\IEDriverServer.exe

[@sudhakamble]

Thanks mukesh.Will try .

[@Rapperabstar]

It is easier to configure selenium grid now with the help of this utility - github.com/frostyaxe/Talongrid

[@Mukeshotwani]

Thanks Mate, I will look into this repository

[@hemininm5649]

Hi ihave got an assignment of creating a Selenium implementation in my already exesting framework .what is the procedure that i need to follow

[@Rapperabstar]

@@hemininm5649 could you please elaborate on this more. If you are planning to add selenium grid feature then I suggest you to create two classes, one for remotewebdriver capabilities and another for remotewebdriver configuration ( here we will create the instance of it )

[@GurudattaPraharaj]
