Re: [wtr-general] Watir Grid Examples Help
Hi Usman, If you follow the cucumber example you can indeed run 2 or more instances of a webdriver browser on one machine. Line 13 in env.rb should be changed to n.times where n is the desired number of browsers ... But beware that running multiple browsers on a single core (machine) is not ideal in terms of performance. You'll probably find browser performance will degrade after 5 or so parallel browsers. YMMV. And yes you can start and stop a controller/providers programatically rather than a command line. There's plenty of examples in the git repo (as well as its spec test cases) which do this... The next question you'll probably ask is how can you then divide the cucumber scenarios up between the different browsers so the entire suite can be processed more quickly. As in run different scenarios at the same time. Have a look at the discussion here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5903379/parallel-cucumber-watir-scenarios-in-windows Cheers, Tim @90kts On Sat, Jun 4, 2011 at 11:27 AM, wrote: > Hi tim, > > Thanks for your advice.

Re: [wtr-general] Watir Grid Examples Help
Hi tim, Thanks for your advice. I will be trying to run everything on one machine. Also a side question which is prob really stupid, but in your examples on github, do the env.) Files in the cucumber section not start the providers and controllers. I am using cucumber with watir webdriver. I managed to get 1 test running on 2 browsers. But I was more interested in the parallel tests. So getting 2 feature files running in parallel to one another. I really do appreciate your help.

Re: [wtr-general] Watir Grid Examples Help
Hi Usman, I can probably help you =) The correct order to start up a grid is: 1. start the controller on a central machine e.g. controller when it starts up it will tell you what its URI is. This is what you'll use to connect other providers e.g. I, [2011-06-04 08:22:15 #99844] INFO -- : Controller started on : *druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235* 2. Now on the remote machines, start up the providers e.g. provider -d webdriver -c *druby://10.0.1.158:11235* Note I need to specify a driver (-d) and the controller's URI (-c). You should see something like this in the console. I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Provider started on : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11236 I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Controller found on : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235 I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Provider registered : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235 Are you trying to run 2 browsers on one machine, or 2 browsers on 2 remote machines?

[wtr-general] Watir Grid Examples Help
Hi Guys, I wanted to get my tests to run parallel to one another so I went to GitHub/WatirGrid and downloaded the whole project. I then began to run the examples. I was able to one tests running in two different browsers (firefox and chrome). So then I thought let me run the parallel test provided. But when I do I get the following error: druby://10.0.1.3:11235 - # (DRb::DRbConnError) I then went to Terminal and typed in 'controller' and got the following: I, [2011-06-03 15:31:40 #67916] INFO -- : Controller started on : druby://10.194.192.181:11235 So I changed the controller uri to druby://10.194.192.181:11235 and then i got the following error: druby://10.194.192.181:11235 - # (DRb::DRbConnError) Has anyone else had any trouble running the examples in watirgrid... or come across this error message?
