I am using Selenium for automating the tests. My application exclusively uses IE, it will not work on other Browsers.
Code:
import org.openqa.selenium.ie.InternetExplorerDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
final String sUrl = "http://www.google.co.in/";
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\vthaduri\\workspace\\LDCSuite\\IEDriverServer.exe");
WebDriver oWebDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
oWebDriver.get(sUrl);
WebElement oSearchInputElem = oWebDriver.findElement(By.name("q")); // Use name locator to identify the search input field.
oSearchInputElem.sendKeys("Selenium 2");
WebElement oGoogleSearchBtn = oWebDriver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[#name='btnG']"));
oGoogleSearchBtn.click();
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
} catch(InterruptedException ex) {
System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
}
oWebDriver.close();
}
}
And here is the error I am getting
The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.ie.driver system property; for more information, see https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver. The latest version can be downloaded from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/

Can someone help me on this?
You will need InternetExplorer driver executable on your system. So download it from the hinted source (http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/) unpack it and place somewhere you can find it. In my example, I will assume you will place it to C:\Selenium\iexploredriver.exe
Then you have to set it up in the system. Here is the Java code pasted from my Selenium project:
File file = new File("C:/Selenium/iexploredriver.exe");
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", file.getAbsolutePath());
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
Basically, you have to set this property before you initialize driver
The error message says
"The path to the driver executable must be set by the
webdriver.ie.driver system property;"
You are setting the path for the Chrome Driver with "webdriver.chrome.driver" property. You are not setting the file location when for InternetExplorerDriver, to do that you must set "webdriver.ie.driver" property.
You can set these properties in your shell, via maven, or your IDE with the -DpropertyName=Value
-Dwebdriver.ie.driver="C:/.../IEDriverServer.exe"
You need to use quotes because of spaces or slashes in your path on windows machines, or alternatively reverse the slashes other wise they are the string string escape prefix.
You could also use
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver","C:/.../IEDriverServer.exe");
inside your code.
I just put the driver files directly into my project to not get any dependency to my local machine.
final File file = new File("driver/chromedriver_2_22_mac");
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", file.getAbsolutePath());
driver = new ChromeDriver();
For spring :
File inputFile = new ClassPathResource("\\chrome\\chromedriver.exe").getFile();
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",inputFile.getCanonicalPath());
You will need have to download InternetExplorer driver executable on your system, download it from the source (http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list) after download unzip it and put on the place of somewhere in your computer. In my example, I will place it to D:\iexploredriver.exe
Then you have write below code in your eclipse main class
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "D:/iexploredriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

I am facing a problem with selenium web driver in java, it says that "The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.gecko.driver system property" you can see it below, but I have set everything as usual I do.
You just need to change the execution flow.
You see, you get the exception because you create FirefoxDriver first and THEN you set the property. It should be in reverse order.
First, set property and THEN initialize WebDriver:
public class EntryPoint {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "path/to/executable.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
}
}
Assuming you are on Windows:
1. Try replacing "/" with "\" on your path.
2. If the previous step did not work, try running Intellij as an admin. The program might not have the right permissions to execute anything on that folder.
I am unable to run my tests on Firefox 48 using latest Selenium versions (2.53, Selenium 3 beta).
Please explain the configuration needed and the code to use to successfully run tests on Firefox 48. I have pointed to the geckodriver and tried to initialise the same in my code.
Code:
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","E:\\Work\\Selenium\\geckodriver-v0.9.0-win64\\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = null;
driver = new MarionetteDriver();
Getting the below:
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms. Firefox console output:
Worked for me:
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "PATH TO GECKO DRIVER");
DesiredCapabilities ffCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
ffCapabilities.setCapability("marionette",true);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(ffCapabilities);
You need to write DesiredCapabilities. Add this line before driver initialization.
DesiredCapabilities cap = DesiredCapabilities.firefox()
You can download geckodriver from the link
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
Then save the file in your local system. unzip the file and change the application name as "wires.exe".
Then specify the path upto wires.exe in the code.
add selenium-2.53.0 jar files.
Try below code to start working on FF 47.0 or above.
package com.marionette.programs;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.MarionetteDriver;
public class HandleLatestFirefox {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String currentDir = System.getProperty("user.dir");
System.out.println(currentDir);
//String marionetteDriverLocation = currentDir + "G:\\ravik\\Ravi-Training\\Selenium\\Marionette for firefox\\wires.exe";
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "G:\\ravik\\Ravi-Training\\Selenium\\Marionette for firefox\\wires.exe");
WebDriver driver = new MarionetteDriver();
driver.get("https://www.google.co.in/webhp?hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjdgc21jJHOAhVCvY8KHZ4aCdcQPAgD");
System.out.println("marionette working fine....");
}
}

This is because Selenium 3 uses a seperate driver to interact with the Firefox browser.
Check out this link.
Add the path of geckodriver.exe with System.setProperty. Assuming path C:\Selenium\Firefox driver\geckodriver.exe:
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","C:\Selenium\Firefox driver\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
I started using selenide (selenium wrapper api) and must say its a great tool but my only issue is its lack of documentation or usage examples online yet.
Any idea how to run your application coded in selenide in google-Chrome. I am using eclipse as IDE. I have added an environment variable "browser" with value chrome in my run configuration but when I run it picks up firefox.
My stack is
JDBC
Java
Selenide
Try this
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");
System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "Chrome");
open("http://google.com");
You can find some documentation here.
The below code will help you launch the Chrome Browser with Selenide, and not with the selenium. It means you don't have to issue a close or quit command at the end of the iteration.
import static com.codeborne.selenide.CollectionCondition.size;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Condition.text;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.*;
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import com.codeborne.selenide.junit.ScreenShooter;
public class SimpleDateFormatClass {
#Rule
public ScreenShooter takeScreenshotSelenide = ScreenShooter.failedTests().succeededTests();
#Test
public void checkGoogleSearchResultsReturnValidResultNumberAndText() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/usr/bin/chromedriver_2");
//Doesn't matter chrome or Chrome as this is case insensitive.
System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "Chrome");
open("http://google.com");
$(By.name("q")).setValue("Selenide").pressEnter();
// assure there are 10 results in the page
// static import shortcut, place the cursor on the method and press
// ctrl+shift+m/ cmd+shift+m
// $ -> driver.findElement, $$ -> driver.findElements
$$(".iris li.g").shouldHave(size(10));
$(".iris li.g").shouldHave(text("Selenide World!"));
}
}
This should help you even if you are running from the command prompt/ terminal, but if you want to exclusively pass on the Chrome from cmd you can use the "browser" parameter as below
-Dselenide.browser=chrome
You need to tell Selenide what browser to use. That can be done using Configuration properties:
import com.codeborne.selenide.Configuration;
public class Tests {
#Before
public void setBrowser() {
Configuration.browser = "chrome";
}
Remember: your webdriver should be placed on the standard path. For unix/linux it is: /usr/local/bin;
If your webdriver is located on a different path or renamed -- you need to set a system property with right path to the webdriver. For example:
Windows:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Program files\\chromedriver.exe");
Linux\Unix:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","/usr/share/chromedriver");
Make sure that your unix / linux chromedriver is executable. After this, you should have a fully working example (in my case, chromedriver is renamed and has version information):
import com.codeborne.selenide.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.junit.*;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.$;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.open;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.WebDriverRunner.getWebDriver;
public class TestClass {
#Before
public void setBrowser(){
Configuration.browser = "chrome";
Configuration.browserSize = "1920x1080";
Configuration.holdBrowserOpen = true;
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/usr/local/bin/chromedriver_2.33");
}
#Test
public void gotoGoogle(){
open("https://www.google.com");
WebElement searchBox = $(By.xpath("//input[#id='lst-ib']"));
$(searchBox).shouldBe(Condition.visible).setValue("How can I execute Selenide in Chrome using ChromeDriver").pressEnter();
WebElement firstResultLink = $(By.xpath("(//div[#class='rc']//a)[1]"));
$(firstResultLink).click();
System.out.println(getWebDriver().getCurrentUrl());
}
}
Another way is to use this command line switch with Maven:
mvn test -P chrome
It requires the Maven profiles in the pom.xml file such as are seen here:
https://github.com/selenide-examples/google
You can use System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "chrome"); for running in the chrome browser. If the same test you need to perform in safari just change the chrome to safari.
Eg:
System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "safari"); open("http://idemo.bspb.ru/");
I want to use phantomJS for some web testing, and I've come across GhostDriver (https://github.com/detro/ghostdriver). I've built it using the instructions in the readme and I can run it on a specified port, but I am not sure how to access the web driver from my java code. To clarify, I've seen this example in ruby:
caps = {
:browserName => "phantomjs",
:platform => "LINUX"
}
urlhub = "http://key:secret#hub.testingbot.com:4444/wd/hub"
client = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Http::Default.new
client.timeout = 120
#webdriver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :remote, :url => urlhub, :desired_capabilities => caps, :http_client => client
#webdriver.navigate.to "http://www.google.com/"
puts #webdriver.title
#webdriver.save_screenshot("./screenshot.png")
#webdriver.quit
I'm just not sure how to do the same from java.
Just to clarify for others who might see this, to run it from java:
DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
caps.setCapability(PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE_PATH_PROPERTY,
"/Path/to/bin/phantomjs");
driver = new PhantomJSDriver(caps);
Then it can be used like a usual WebDriver.
I believe this link will answer your questions. You will need Selenium 2.28.0, and PhantomJS 1.8. I have tested this, and it works as advertised, although my tests were precursory. Note that you need to download the Selenium zip file to get the jar which contains the bindings. The Maven repo does not yet include it.
http://ivandemarino.me/2012/12/04/Finally-GhostDriver-1-0-0/
First download the exe file of the PhantomJSDriver. Don't need to install, only download this file from http://phantomjs.org/download.html and simply give the path of the exe file in the given code.
public class Browserlaunch {
public static void main(String[] args) {
DesiredCapabilities DesireCaps = new DesiredCapabilities();
DesireCaps.setCapability(PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE_PATH_PROPERTY, "C:/Drivers/phantomjs/bin/phantomjs.exe");
WebDriver driver=new PhantomJSDriver(DesireCaps);
driver.get("http://google.com");
}
}
Only set system property:
System.setProperty("phantomjs.binary.path", "lib/phantomjs.exe");
WebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver();
