The Selenium Grid: Run Multiple Automated Tests in ParallelJosiah Renaudin
The Selenium Grid unleashes the full power of Selenium to run multiple automated tests in parallel across multiple platforms. Brian Long demonstrates the use of an open-source framework developed at Virginia Tech to get up and running with a Selenium Grid in about an hour. He begins by discussing the Selenium Grid configuration and then progresses to the installation of the framework. Starting with a clean Selenium installation, Brian uses Git to retrieve and install the open-source Selenium Grid framework, then Maven to build it using the Java JDK. Working from the instructions in the open-source Selenium-Grid-setup project, Brian configures a hub and a node on separate machines. After demonstrating the working grid by running a simple test on the remote nodes, Brian continues with how to use the Selenium IDE to generate tests and integrate them into the Grid by extending the open-source code. Note: There will be some programming!
1) The document discusses running Selenium tests in a Maven integration testing project locally and in the cloud using Amazon Web Services.
2) Tests are run across different environments and browsers using TestNG properties and can be run in parallel.
3) Running tests in the cloud addresses issues with local testing by providing on-demand access to varied environments in a cost effective manner.
Dave Haeffner's Proven Method to Grading the Quality of Selenium TestsApplitools

So you've written your fair share of Selenium tests.
Perhaps you've dabbled with Page Objects, Wait Strategies (aka Implicit and/or Explicit Waits), and you feel confident about your locators. Your test code might be in pretty good shape -- able to work reliably as time marches on and the application under test continues to evolve and your testing needs continue grow with it.
But how do you *know*? It's not like there is a quantitative way to measure this.
Or is there?
Watch Selenium expert Dave Haeffner as he steps through the core tenets of good test and page object design, locators, and a repeatable and quantitative approach for assessing your test code.
When you're done, you'll be able to see how your tests and page objects stack up, and what changes are needed to help them stand the test of time.
Want to run your tests fast, in multiple threads, different browsers and operation systems? Selenium Grid is for you.

Grid Extras is a tool that enhances Selenium Grid functionality by automatically updating web drivers, restarting nodes after a set number of tests, and providing centralized node configuration, video recordings of test runs, OS screenshots, and more advanced capabilities than a standard Grid installation. It aims to improve the Selenium Grid testing process through features like auto-updating browser versions, handling protected content modes in Internet Explorer, and allowing contributions from the open source community. The presenter is a contributor to Grid Extras, helps users on IRC and forums, and works as an SDET at GoDaddy to promote test automation.
Selenium Grid allows maintaining a cluster of Selenium RC servers, configuring tests for different environments, and parallelizing tests. It works by having a Grid Hub that manages Selenium Grid Nodes, which each run a Selenium RC Server. The Hub maps environment names like "linux_firefox_3_6" to specific browsers, and clients connect using environment names. This allows the Hub to route clients to available Nodes matching the requested environment.

Conclusion
This document discusses exploratory testing and provides examples of how to explore different targets like editing profiles and injection attacks to discover bugs. It suggests exploring with different resources and discussing techniques for brainstorming, planning, and observing tests. The document also lists some heuristics for test sizes and variations, including path names, strings, navigation, and data values to help test different scenarios.
Would you like to automate your acceptance tests against multiple browsers and multiple servers? How about make your UI tests run faster? And remove the boilerplate on them? Browser automation tools to the rescue! In this session, I'll share how you can gain back development time by using FluentLenium, an open source Java wrapper around the Selenium API. We'll take a brief look at what is new in the UI testing javascript ecosystem and then I’ll share with you some rules for writing better UI tests.
FluentLenium is an alternative way to do Selenium testing that optimizes test code writing, facilitates element interactions, ensures maintainability, improves handling of AJAX elements, simplifies assertions, and allows tests to be written in a JQuery style. It features custom CSS and XPath selectors, actions like click and fill, support for the page object pattern, waiting for AJAX elements, and assertion methods. The documentation provides examples of using FluentLenium and encourages testing teams to try it out.
