Changing the base URL

Change the base URL that the tests were recorded with, note that it will not affect tests that used absolute URLs. resus-ride-runner --base-url https://www.seleniumhq.org

.ride.yml

All of the configuration can be written in the .ride.yml file, the runner will load it from the current working directory automatically.

Example usage

capabilities:
  browserName: "firefox"
baseUrl: "https://www.seleniumhq.org"
server: "http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"

Advanced features

Running on multiple workers

Running tests faster through the use of multiple workers
resus-ride-runner -w 4
The runner will automatically set the number of workers to the amount of cores available, for most cases this is the best result.
Note: unless you specified that a suite is parallel, it will still run the contained tests sequentially, though the runner will run suites in parallel by default.
To mark a suite's tests as parallel, set that in the suite's settings in the IDE.

Using a proxy server

resus-ride-runner can pass proxy capabilities to the browser using the following schemes.

direct proxy

Configures WebDriver to bypass all browser proxies.
resus-ride-runner --proxy-type=direct

proxyType: direct

manual proxy

Manually configures the browser proxy.
resus-ride-runner --proxy-type=manual --proxy-options="http=localhost:434 bypass=[http://localhost:434, http://localhost:8080]"

proxyType: manual
proxyOptions:
  http: http://localhost:434
  https: http://localhost:434
  ftp: http://localhost:434
  bypass:
    - http://localhost:8080
    - http://host:434
    - http://somethingelse:32

pac proxy

Configures WebDriver to configure the browser proxy using the PAC file at the given URL.
resus-ride-runner --proxy-type=pac --proxy-options="http://localhost/pac"

proxyType: pac
proxyOptions: http://localhost/pac

socks proxy

Creates a proxy configuration for a socks proxy.
resus-ride-runner --proxy-type=socks --proxy-options="socksProxy=localhost:434 socksVersion=5"

proxyType: socks
proxyOptions:
  socksProxy: localhost:434
  socksVersion: 5

system proxy

Configures WebDriver to use the current system's proxy.
sresus-ride-runner --proxy-type=system

proxyType: system

FAQ

I'm getting an error similar to Unknown locator ${vars.something}

When running your projects make sure that the command is aware of the locator strategy before variables are evaluated.
For example click | id=${myButton} vs click | ${idOfMyButton}.
Always use the first one, since the strategy is hardcoded in the command, the second would yield an error.

But it works in the IDE.

That is because the IDE calculates locator strategies differently than the runner, it is a known current issue.
