I am new to Selenium. I generated my first java selenium test case and it has compiled successfully. But when I run that test I got the following RuntimeException
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not start Selenium session: Failed to start new browser session: Error while launching browser at com.thoughtworks.selenium.DefaultSelenium.start <DefaultSelenium.java:88>
Kindly tell me how can I fix this error.
This is the java file I want to run.
import com.thoughtworks.selenium.*;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
import junit.framework.*;
public class orkut extends SeleneseTestCase {
public void setUp() throws Exception {
setUp("https://www.google.com/", "*chrome");
}
public void testOrkut() throws Exception {
selenium.setTimeout("10000");
selenium.open("/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=orkut&hl=en-US&rm=false&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.orkut.com%2FRedirLogin%3Fmsg%3D0&cd=IN&skipvpage=true&sendvemail=false");
selenium.type("Email", "username");
selenium.type("Passwd", "password");
selenium.click("signIn");
selenium.selectFrame("orkutFrame");
selenium.click("link=Communities");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad("10000");
}
public static Test suite() {
return new TestSuite(orkut.class);
}
public void tearDown(){
selenium.stop();
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
junit.textui.TestRunner.run(suite());
}
}
I first started the selenium server through the command prompt and then execute the above java file through another command prompt.
Second Question: Can I do right click on a specified place on a webpage with selenium.
