Selenium and Jenkins integration on centos

1. Environment required

Centos Linux release 6.0 (Final )(CAT/etc/RedHat-release)

JDK: jdk1.6.0 _ 27 (/opt /)

Apachetomcat: APACHE-Tomcat-6.0.33 (/opt /)

1.1 extract JDK and Apache Tomcat (Tar xvf * .tar.gz)

1.2 set environment variables like below:

1.2.1 nano~ /. ProfileOr/etc/. Profile (NanoIs better than vi, we can install it usingYum install nanoIn centos)

Java_home =/opt/jdk1.6.0 _ 27
Classpath =.: $ java_home/lib/tool. Jar
Ant_home =/opt/Apache-ant-1.8.2
Display =: 1.0
Path =: $ ant_home/bin: $ java_home/bin: $ path
Export lang = "en_us.utf8" java_home classpath path

1.2.2 source ~ /. Profile

1.2.3 verify if set successful usingEcho $ java_home

1.3 start Apache

CD/opt/Apache-Tomcat-6.0.33/bin

Sh startup. ShOr./Startup. Sh

1.4 verify if Apache work well

Http: // host: 8080

If it cannot be accessed, it may be relevantFirewall, Just close firewall usingService iptables stopOrAdd a rule-open 8080

2. Install Jenkins

There are 2 ways to install it, one is using RPM (referto http://jenkins-ci.org/centos), another is using Jenkins. War

2.1 For first method: http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat/ this will installed Jenkins in/var/lib/Jenkins and the service will in/etc/init. d/Jenkins

When starting Jenkins, there is an error saying/usr/bin/Java: no such file or directory

The solution is to make a soft link usingLn-S $ java_home/bin/Java/usr/bin/Java

Use this method, there is some issueWhen integating with selenium (Firefox profile cannot be accessed well and if put profile in/tmp/, selenium will hang on launching Firefox ....).

2.2 for second method: DownloadJenkins. War, And copy it/Opt/Apache-Tomcat-6.0.33/webapps, And restart Apache

Then we can access Jenkins using http: // host: 8080/Jenkins

3. Install Firefox and Xvfb

Yum install Firefox

Yum install Xvfb

When start Xvfb using/Usr/bin/Xvfb: 1-ac-screen 0 1024x768x8There is an issue below:

(Ee) aiglx error: dlopen of/usr/lib64/DRI/swrast_dri.so failed (/usr/lib64/DRI/swrast_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory)
(Ee) Glx: cocould not load software Renderer

The solution is to installMesa-dri-drivers-7.7-2.el6.x86_64.rpm

4. Set environment variable display

Display =: 1.0(Same with Xvfb starting setting)

5. Install font libs

If we start an app like Firefox, there will an error like (Firefox: 3087): pango-warning **: failed to choose a font, please CT ugly output.

The solution is to install font libs usingYum install xorg-x11-font *

6. Install selenium plugins

Jenkins-manage Jenkins-available-check selenium plugins: Hudson seleniumhq plugin and selenium HTML report to install

7. Download selenium server jar, and put it in/opt/

8. Configure selenium server path

Jenkins-manage Jenkins-configure system

9. configure a job

Note: Firefox need a profile template to launch, the template can be copied from other machine.

How to create a profile template? Just close Firefox browser, and typeFirefox-profilemanagerIn terminal, then the dialog pops up, And we can create it here.
