2.Run the demo

3.Running the Tests in Parallel on Multiple Machines

Notes:

• 在所有的机器(比如GRID机,RC机)上,都必须要安装ANT和SELENIUM GRID
  
• 必须在GRID机上先启动 ant-hub,然后再在其它的机器上启动RC,这样在localhost:4444/console中,你才能看到available remote control的信息.
• 如果在某台机器上想用某种浏览器(e.g.safari)进行测试,那在在这台机器上,必须将支持此浏览器的RC启动起来,格式如下:ant -Dport=5556 -Dhost=192.168.1.4 -DhubURL=http://192.168.1.70:4444 -Denvironment="Safari on Windows" launch-remote-control

4.Running the Demo Using a Different Browser

In the demo, firefox is the default browser, if you want to run the demo with the Safari web browser, you need to follow the below steps:

• ant launch-hub

• Launch a remote control(in the other machine or in the same machine) declaring that it provides the Safari environment:ant -Dport= -Dhost= -DhubURL= -Denvironment="*safari" launch-remote-control

• Launch the other remote controls the same way:

• ant -Denvironment="*safari" -Dport=5556 launch-remote-control
  ant -Denvironment="*safari" -Dport=5557 launch-remote-control

• Launch the demo overriding the browser system property:
• ant -Dbrowser="*safari" run-demo-in-parallel
