Connection Refused running multiple environments on Selenium Grid 1.04 via Ubuntu 9.04
- by ReadyWater
Hello, I'm writing a selenium grid test suite which is going to be run on a series of different machines. I wrote most of it on my macbook but have recently transfered it over to my work machine, which is running ubuntu 9.04. That's actually my first experience with a linux machine, so I may be missing something very simple (I have disabled the firewall though).
I haven't been able to get the multienvironment thing working at all, and I've been trying and manual reviewing for a while. Any recommendations and help would be greatly, greatly appreciated!
The error I'm getting when I run the test is:
[java] FAILED CONFIGURATION: @BeforeMethod startFirstEnvironment("localhost", 4444, "*safari", "http://remoteURL:8080/tutor")
[java] java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not start Selenium session: ERROR: Connection refused
I thought it might be the mac refusing the connection, but using wireshark I determined that no connection attempt was made on the mac . Here's the code for setting up the session, which is where it seems to be dying
@BeforeMethod(groups = {"default", "example"}, alwaysRun = true)
@Parameters({"seleniumHost", "seleniumPort", "firstEnvironment", "webSite"})
protected void startFirstEnvironment(String seleniumHost, int seleniumPort, String firstEnvironment, String webSite) throws Exception {
try{
startSeleniumSession(seleniumHost, seleniumPort, firstEnvironment, webSite);
session().setTimeout(TIMEOUT);
} finally {
closeSeleniumSession();
}
}
@BeforeMethod(groups = {"default", "example"}, alwaysRun = true)
@Parameters({"seleniumHost", "seleniumPort", "secondEnvironment", "webSite"})
protected void startSecondEnvironment(String seleniumHost, int seleniumPort, String secondEnvironment, String webSite) throws Exception {
try{
startSeleniumSession(seleniumHost, seleniumPort, secondEnvironment, webSite);
session().setTimeout(TIMEOUT);
} finally {
closeSeleniumSession();
}
}
and the accompanying build script used to run the test
