#25471: Random test failures with parallel selenium tests -----------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: MoritzS | Owner: nobody Type: Bug | Status: new Component: Testing framework | Version: master Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 -----------------------------------+-------------------- When running selenium tests in parallel I often get test failures that seem to be some kind of race condition. However with `--parallel 1` these errors don't occur and sometimes even when running in parallel all tests pass.
I usually run the tests with `xvfb-runner`, however I also tested it without xvfb and the errors still occur. {{{ $ chromium --version Chromium 45.0.2454.101 $ chromedriver --version ChromeDriver 2.16 $ firefox --version Mozilla Firefox 41.0 }}} Here are some of the results of running the test suite multiple times with `./runtests --selenium` (running on 8 cores): {{{ ====================================================================== ERROR: test_ForeignKey (admin_widgets.tests.AdminRawIdWidgetSeleniumFirefoxTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: Unable to locate element: {"method":"link text","selector":"Bogey Blues"} Stacktrace: at FirefoxDriver.prototype.findElementInternal_ (file:///tmp/django_m_oympys/tmpqtuo3nbn/extensions/fxdri...@googlecode.com/components /driver-component.js:10647) at FirefoxDriver.prototype.findElement (file:///tmp/django_m_oympys/tmpqtuo3nbn/extensions/fxdri...@googlecode.com/components /driver-component.js:10656) at DelayedCommand.prototype.executeInternal_/h (file:///tmp/django_m_oympys/tmpqtuo3nbn/extensions/fxdri...@googlecode.com/components /command-processor.js:12617) at DelayedCommand.prototype.executeInternal_ (file:///tmp/django_m_oympys/tmpqtuo3nbn/extensions/fxdri...@googlecode.com/components /command-processor.js:12622) at DelayedCommand.prototype.execute/< (file:///tmp/django_m_oympys/tmpqtuo3nbn/extensions/fxdri...@googlecode.com/components /command-processor.js:12564) ====================================================================== ERROR: test_many_to_many (admin_widgets.tests.AdminRawIdWidgetSeleniumFirefoxTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: ====================================================================== ERROR: test_prepopulated_fields (admin_views.tests.SeleniumAdminViewsChromeTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element (Session info: chrome=45.0.2454.101) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.16,platform=Linux 4.1.6-1-ARCH x86_64) ====================================================================== FAIL: test_multiple_locales (i18n.test_compilation.MultipleLocaleCompilationTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AssertionError: False is not true ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 10308 tests in 61.830s }}} {{{ ====================================================================== ERROR: test_calendar_nonday_class (admin_widgets.tests.DateTimePickerSeleniumChromeTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element (Session info: chrome=45.0.2454.101) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.16,platform=Linux 4.1.6-1-ARCH x86_64) ====================================================================== FAIL: test_add_inlines (admin_inlines.tests.SeleniumChromeTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AssertionError: 0 != 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 10308 tests in 62.124s }}} {{{ ====================================================================== ERROR: test_filter (admin_widgets.tests.HorizontalVerticalFilterSeleniumChromeTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- selenium.common.exceptions.StaleElementReferenceException: Message: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document (Session info: chrome=45.0.2454.101) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.16,platform=Linux 4.1.6-1-ARCH x86_64) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 10308 tests in 65.913s }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/25471> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
