Summary
This manual will help you to set up the automation test environment for Selenium.
I will also introduce the automation test framework of Selenium used in Morningstar.
The related tools introduction
First, i'd like to show you all the tools which we'll use during the automation test work. We just need to have a brief understand about them in the beginning. No need to spend too much time on this table. After we participate in a specific project, we will get to know all the tools in detail.
Don't worry about the huge list. Leaving an impression is enough.

Step 5:Remain the configuration,click "Finish" button.
If it's the first time you import a selenium project, after you click "Finish" button, the maven project will automatically download dependent JARs to your local computer.
The download process will take a long time. Please be patient to wait.
The JARs will be downloaded to this directory automatically : C:Usersjzhang6.m2 epository
You can also see the JARs in the Project's Maven Dependencies in Spring Tool Suite.
Someone may wonder where is Selenium. Actually Selenium just provides some JARs to us, you can find them in the Maven Dependencies.
Step 6:(Opetional)If import project failed,try to do the following operation.
After the download process finished , if error with red cross appears in the code, it means some JARs may download failed.
We need to delete the project in Spring Tool Suite and delete all the files in this folder : C:Usersjzhang6.m2 epository
And then import the project to Spring Tool Suite again.
Or, you can also operate as below:
1.Click Window->Show View->Other...
2.Select Maven Repositories and click "OK" button.
3.Select "Golbal Repositories->central(http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)[updating]" and then click "Rebuild Index"
9.Maven install project
Before maven install the project, firstly change environment.xml as below:
Change mode="debug" , useGrid="false"
Why do this, i will explain it in another section.
Now, let's start to maven install the project to perform the test.
Step 1:Find out pom.xml in the project,select it and right click the mouse,and then click Run as->Maven install, testing will start.
The testing will take a long time, because all the test cases will be tested. If you want to suspend it , close Spring Tool Suite and kill all the browser processes and java process in Windows Task Manager : java.exe, firefox.exe, ie.exe, chrome.exe and etc.
Step 2:(Opetional)If maven install project failed,try to do the following operation.
1.Click Window->Show View->Other...
2.Select Maven Repositories and click "OK" button.
3.Select "Golbal Repositories->central(http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)[updating]" and then click "Rebuild Index"
10.Run mode introduction
There are several modes to run test cases.
You can let test case run on your local computer or remote computer.
And also you can let multiple test cases run on multiple remote computers at the same time, we call it concurrency test. And we also call it run inGrid mode.
Mode 1 : Run test case on local computer.
When we are developing a new test case, we always need to run the code on local computer.
Mode 2 : Run test suite on remote computers
Test suite may includes one or multiple test cases.
Hub can be put on Local Computer or Remote Computer, or other computers, no matter where is it.
Nodes on Remote Computers will point which computer is Hub by IP address.
Selenium will configure which computer is Hub in environment.xml
How to control the Run mode?
We can control the Run mode by environment.xml
(File Path: Automation_Test_PA_Smokesrc est esourcesconfigenvironment.xml)
mode="" useGrid="true" : Run on remote computers , Hub is CIHub configured in environment.xml
mode="debug" useGrid="false" : Run on local computers
mode="debug" useGrid="true" : Run on remote computers , Hub is debugHub configured in environment.xml
11.Debug test case on local computer in non-Grid mode
Step 1: Config environment.xml to let test case run on local computer with no concurrency
File Path: Automation_Test_PA_Smokesrc est esourcesconfigenvironment.xml
Change mode="debug" useGrid="false"
Step 2: Debug one test case
If you want to debug one test case, you can find it out in the "Outline" view, and right click it and debug it by TestNG.
Or just move the mouse to the test case's class name in code , right click it and debug by TestNG.
12.Run test suite on remote computer in Grid mode
If you want to run a test suite with multiple test cases, you can run it on remote computer in Grid mode.
Test cases in the test suite will run concurrently on multiple computers which are being used as nodes.
Step 1:Change environment configuration "environment.xml". Let it run in grid mode.
Change mode="" useGrid="true"
Step 2: Select smokeTest.xml, right click it and select Run As->TestNG Suite
The test cases configured in smokeTest.xml will run on remote computers in concurrency mode.
13.About Grid,Hub,Node,BrowserDriver
Why we need Grid?
When we want to improve the speed of automation test, we hope the test cases can run on multiple computers at the same time, we call it "concurrent execution", so we need Grid.
What is Grid?
In Grid mode, there is one Hub and multiple Nodes.
Hub run on a single computer, each Node run on a single computer.
Each Node points to the Hub by the hostname and port of the Hub.
How to set up the Grid environment?
To set up the Grid environment, we only need to copy several files to the computers which are used as Hub and Node.
Config the hub infomation and file path in Allnodes.bat, and then run Hub.bat on Hub, run Allnodes.bat on Nodes.
You can find the files in the code to set up Grid environment: /src/test/resources/driver
About Hub.bat and Allnodes.bat
Copy the folder driver to C:/ , change the folder name to WebDriver
About Hub.bat , no need to change anything
About AllNodes.bat
If you want to build the Hub and Node environment on you local computer or other computers, you must modify the configuration in Allnodes.bat.
Both the HUD_NAME and DRIVER_PATH in Allnodes.bat need to be modified according to the actual condition.
What is Browserdriver?
Webdriver is provided by browser company, if we want to operate Browser by software program, we need Browser Webdriver to driver it.
The Webdriver for Firefox has been integrated to Browser , so we can not see Firefox Webdriver in the folder.
Only Webdriver for Chrome and IE have been included in.
Grid we are using
Let's see the Grid Console which we are using. Copy "http://szmercurytest1:4444/grid/console#" to Browser and open it.
There are 7 Nodes under the Hub "SZMERCURYTEST1".
Each Node has 4 kinds of WebDrivers, includes :Safari, Chrome, Firefox, IE
When the browser has been used to run test case, the icon of it will become gray.
More information about Grid we are using , please refer to : Automation Test Operation Memo
14.Introduction of automation test projects

Q & A
Q1: Where is Selenium?
Selenium is several .jar packets used as functional APIs in our projects. Your can see them in the Project's folder : "Maven Dependencies".
All of them will be downloaded to : C:Usersjzhang6.m2 epository when you import a maven project.
Q4: When running test case in Firefox, Firefox can be opened but displays white board, error message is "driver is null"
Current Selenium version may not support the Firefox version in your computer, if your Firefox always update automatically, the version may be too new to Selenium.
Please uninstall the New Firefox Version and install the old Firefox 31.0 version.
Your can get the installation package from Jenny Zhang's computer: \szpc2081ToolsFirefox Setup 31.0.exe
After you install it and open it the first time, it's very important to prevent the automatic update before you check the Firefox Version
(If you check the Firefox version firstly, it will update soon, so don't check the version before you prevent the automatic update.)
To prevent automatic update, Click 
in the top right, select "Options"->"Advanced"->"Update", setup is shown below.
