This is the Selenium browser provider plugin for TestCafe.

npm install testcafe-browser-provider-selenium

A Selenium Server up and running, either as standalone or in a grid. Check out the Selenium's Docker images for an easy way to get started with setting up a grid.

If you run tests from the command line, use the browser alias when specifying browsers. The '-c 2' parameter will split the tests up and run them across two browsers concurrently. Omit this if it is not needed.

testcafe -c 2 selenium:chrome 'path/to/test/file.js'

When you use API, pass the alias to the browsers() method:

testCafe
    .createRunner()
    .src('path/to/test/file.js')
    .browsers('selenium:chrome')
    .concurrency(2)
    .run();

The browser version and platform can be specified along with the browser name alias in the format:

selenium:browserName[@version][:platform]

for example:

• selenium:chrome
• selenium:[email protected]
• selenium:[email protected]:linux

Use the following optional environment variable to set additional configuration options:

• SELENIUM_SERVER - (optional) the url to the selenium server. If not set the default 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub' will be used.
