    Study Notes

    Selenium Grid Deprecation

    • Selenium Grid 1 is being deprecated by the Selenium Team.

    Selenium Grid Architecture

    • There should be only one hub in a Selenium Grid.
    • The hub runs on a single machine.
    • Tests are loaded into the hub in Selenium Grid.

    Selenium Grid Nodes

    • Nodes are the machines that run the tests in Selenium Grid.
    • Nodes can be launched on multiple machines with different platforms and browsers.
    • The browser being automated is on the node machine.

    Selenium Grid Configuration

    • The RemoteWebDriver object requires the org.openqa.selenium.remote package to be imported.
    • The DesiredCapabilities object is used to set the type of browser and OS that will be automated.
    • The capabilityMatcher in the JSON config file is used to match the capabilities of the node with the test requirements.
    • The JSON config file has a .json file extension.

    Selenium Grid Hub

    • The hub is the central point that manages the nodes and distributes the tests.
    • The hub can be launched on Machine A using the command java -jar selenium-server-standalone.jar -role hub.
    • Selenium Grid, by default, uses port 4444 for its web interface on Machine A.
    • The Grid Console can be accessed at <a href="http://localhost:4444/grid/console">http://localhost:4444/grid/console</a>.

    Selenium Grid Purpose

    • The purpose of Selenium Grid is to run multiple tests simultaneously on different browsers and platforms.
    • Selenium Grid uses the concept of parallel testing to run multiple tests simultaneously.
    • The purpose of running tests on Selenium Grid is to save time and resources.

    Selenium Grid Versions

    • The main difference between Selenium Grid 1 and Selenium Grid 2 is the architecture and functionality.

    Selenium Grid Verification

    • The hub can be verified by accessing the Grid Console.

    Selenium Grid Objects

    • The Selenium Server jar file is used to launch the hub and nodes.
    • The DesiredCapabilities object is used to set the type of browser and OS that will be automated.
    • The RemoteWebDriver object is used to interact with the browser on the node machine.
