Basic Selenium Example

info

This Workflows functionality is not available when running the Testkube Agent in Standalone Mode - Read More

Below is a basic workflow for executing a Selenium test with maven - the test itself is written in Java and available on GitHub. You can paste this directly into the YAML of an existing or new test, just make sure to update the name and namespace for your environment if needed.

  • The spec.content property defines the location of the GitHub project
  • The spec.services.chrome property starts the Chrome engine as a Service which Selenium then uses for running the test (read more about Services)
  • the spec.steps property defines a single step that runs the test using the started Chrome engine and uploads the created reports.
