Now to find out if I can arrange docker images in a tree, so I can kill the root image and have everything that uses it also die

could be a step backwards, I am not sure if there is a better to still get the output on the same console

for the 2nd thing, I think it is better to use docker compose for that, when you stop it, it stops all the images

diemol-sl: it's sometimes useful to get all the output to the same console

@simonstewart on a terminal window, using docker logs --follow [container id]

Interesting. Thanks manoj9788-sl

Task for today: merge how we start webdriver images in Grid, Standalone, and the RC emulation

And do matching of requests

And not assume that everything fits in memory, but it might

docker attach and docker logs --follow do the same as --ti, so I don't really know if there is something that works exactly as @simonstewart wants step backwards indeed, maybe someone else knows?

WebDriverBackedSeleniumServlet: creates a Capabilities object, then uses that. Old DriverServlet: deserializes request and builds a new session payload. WebDriverServlet: creates a CommandHandler and that reads the request, Grid: expects capabilities to be singular and deserializes the lot of them

Oh boy

Time to go delving into how Grid does prioritisation of incoming requests

isn't it first come first serve? unless you pass a class that overwrites it?

It probably is

Chatting with Francois too :)

I guess that is easier

:)

What's the point of knowing everyone on the project if I can't ask for help sometimes?

Anyone here?

Need some assistance please

just ask your question

!ask

:ask

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for topic experts. Don't ask to ask. Don't PM. Don't ask if people are awake, or in the mood to help. Just ask the question straight out, and stick around. We'll get to it eventually :)

do ! instead of :

So I have installed Eclipse and followed all the steps to install Selenium IDE and the Webdriver with Eclipse. New to it yes.

the bot has always used : for the last 6 years.

Long story short, I cannot find the source files needed for the webdriver class anywhere

yeah, but I’ve used lots of things over the past 6 years and they all merge into one confusing mess in my head ;)

org.openga.selenium.WebDriver Note: This element neither has attached source nor attached Javadoc and hence no Javadoc could be found.

I have tried everything. Have downloaded all the jar files for Java from Selenium and added them to the build path. Nothing.

If you've used maven to get selenium, then just ask it to also download source jars

Na I didnt hey.....downloaded the Java JDK, then Exclipse, then the Jar files and added them to the build path

Where did you get the jar files?

The site?

Huh. I thought we packed the source in there too

Apparently not :/

Apparently not :)

And I cannot find it anywhere online

Lol yeah....

You can grab source jars from maven central

All the releases are kept in sync

I added both those jar files as well as the server jar

You don't add the source to the build path. There's some other steps in Eclipse

@titusfortner is watir.com not valid anymore?

Which source file am I looking for though? Sorry to be daft here.....

Great Scott! I think I can finally merge Grid, Node, and Standalone

*holds onto seat*

micahel: just whack the whole source jar into eclipse as suggested by the stackoverflow post

cool!

It'll take some clever shenanigans.

And I may end up rewriting a reasonable chunk of code

But I have a way forward.

Might also allow you to mark a hub or node as "draining", so it completes active sessions, and then quits

Without accepting new session requests

Heya folks, Chrome stopped allowing embedded credentials in URLs in my test suite last night. I'm looking for a new way to specify the credentials. I'm not getting an authentication popup. I thought I was using NTLM Auth but passing credentials in url was working, so I guess i'm just using basic... Any help greatly appreciated

So I attached the sources.jar file as the Source under the Selenium jar file?

Not working arg

TacticSiege: use a proxy

TacticSiege: BrowserMob is one often used with selenium

My fish is doing a startling good impression of an ex-fish. This does not bode well.

:(

Turns out she has a wicked sense of humour

Fish! I am unimpressed!

@michael if you want to go down the maven route there is a starter project here you can try: https://github.com/Ardesco/Selenium-Maven-Template Eclipse should be able to deal with maven projects just fine.

i wish we'd had time to get basic auth into the spec...

Seconded.

jimevans: aren't you in a giant metal tube, hurtling through the atmosphere at some terrifying speed?

but i'm experiencing a little schadenfreude now that chrome users have to deal with everything that IE users have had to deal with for years.

simonstewart: indeed i am

Nothing like a schadenfreude

headed to a city a mile above sea level for a couple of hours, then on to the land of the rising sun

WhereIsMySpoon: that's quite a leap from just prepending to the URL to setting up and learning a fair bit about the whole proxy rigging, is there a more code oriented solution?

micahel: if you have code already, you can do this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9164893/how...

Personally, I use something that understands maven dependencies and then pulls them locally. And then I stop touching anything maven related

much to my dismay, i'm dealing with fixing a crap-ton of tests that use the :contains() pseudoselector in a css locator

because effing selenium rc

No More RC!

and dealing with the fallout of where i inevitably forget a bracket in my conversion of the locator to xpath…

the grind

i have, over the last six weeks, converted over 22000 tests from the selenium RC technology stack to the webdriver stack.

03illicitonion over 5 years ago - --- | https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/commit/2...

maybe not the api, which we wrap all to hell anyway, but the engine.

!m jimevans

You're doing good work, jimevans!

it honestly hasn't been *that* hard to do.

because wrapper api

but i've been trying for nearly five years to get this done

and asking other teams to actually take ownership of their stuff

and being told at every turn that "it'll take too much effort"

i've finally gotten fed up.

to paraphrase mr. wednesday from the season finale of the recent american gods adaptation, "anger gets shit done"

(incidentally, if you like gaiman's work, and you're a fan of the novel, and you're not watching the tv adaptation, you're missing out)

The TV series is excellent. This is true

22K tests? Perkele!

:yt rise PIL

you forget just how many selenium tests we have at salesforce. it's an ungodly number.

and there are still another 7000 or so more to go.

not that i'm going to be doing that conversion on those.

i'm just grabbing the low-hanging fruit, the tests that already work via webdriver without any other code change.

Can I ask a daft question?

of course.

WhereIsMySpoon: any recommendations for a .net friendly proxy? I need something that can run as a fixed account, but use credentials provided at runtime

Why not just create a "ByJQuery" and use that?

TacticSiege: i know zip about .net
