How to run appium testcase from command prompt in windows machine? - appium

I'm ready with Appium setup and AddContact testcase(script in java). I'm able to run successfully through eclipse and it's working fine. But, I would like to run same script on command line.

Open the command prompt on your system.
Go to the Test Java project folder where the new testng.xml is created.
Type the following line. java -cp "/opt/testng-6.8.jar:bin" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml.
This is the general way to run TestNG suites from command line
Hope this helps.

Better install maven in ur machine and add maven dependancy to your project. Then you can directly use the following command to execute the test command line easily.
mvn clean test

Cannot Build build.xml file in wso2 esb home/bin directory

In WSO2 Documentation, they have said Open a command prompt (or a shell in Linux) and go to the <ESB_HOME>\bin directory. Then run the ant command as shown below to build the build.xml file.
In My Case If I run ant Command it shows command not found even though I run cmd in bin of wso2.
So Can anyone help me with this?
you need to install 'ant' first when you are using Windows.

how to run Selenium tests in Jenkins

I want to run my Selenium Webdriver Maven tests in Jenkins. I've followed the tutorial: https://www.guru99.com/maven-jenkins-with-selenium-complete-tutorial.html and https://www.safaribooksonline.com/library/view/jenkins-the-definitive/9781449311155/ch04s06.html
But now, I want to run each of hundreds tests that I've written in Selenium Webdriver with Eclipse.
I use Maven to create testng.xml (where I have my Maven projects to can execute a list of tests in the same execution).
I use Eclipse to write Java to create tests in Selenium Webdriver.
I use github to import tests.
I show you my github project... I don't know how to access into the different folders to execute each testng.xml files, sorry, I'm pretty new here.
Could anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks so much!!!!
Create a freestyle Jenkins job and then go to the configuration page of your job and in Source Code Management section add the URL of your Git repo where you have kept your TestNG tests. This will help to bring the tests from the repository to your workspace.
Then go to the Build section and select Execute windows batch script if and then add the following script:
java -cp ".;/path/to/testng-x.x.x.jar;/path/to/jcommander-x.xx.jar;/path/to/test-classes" org.testng.TestNG /path/to/test.xml
For Linux use the following script with Execute shell in `Build step:
cd /path/to/test.xml
java -cp "/path/to/testng-x.x.x.jar:/path/to/bin" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml
Where /bin folder contains the compiled code for the TestNG tests.
Then save the job and run the build to execute TestNG test cases.
Note: You can find the required JAR files inside the .m2 folder.

How to debug the Jenkins plugin

I have built a new "Hello World" plugin for Jenkins and I was able to upload it onto Jenkins and it works successfully. I am now trying to make change to the plugin and debug it on Jenkins.
Note:
My Jenkins is deployed in my local tomcat, i build the hpi file and copy it to jenkins plugins folder, it works.
Now i want to ask how can i debug my plugin code? Suggestions with any IDE is welcome.
I also have questions about:
do i need to create a project for jenkins source in my IDE and develop my plugin base on it?
Currently i only create a project for the plugin, build a hpi file and put it to Jenkins.
I am not sure if this step is correct.
Thanks in advance!
I imagine you ran
mvn package
to create your package
To debug you can do
mvnDebug hpi:run
and this will copy all the dependencies down (rather than in your jenkins install) and run it in place
If you are using an IDE then this can be done from within it.
More help can be found in the plugin tutorial
Follow the tutorial to set MAVEN_OPTS, and using IntelliJ to add a Jetty Server to point the port to it.
execute from cmd:
mvn clean
set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000,suspend=n
mvn hpi:run
add a debug local Jetty Server from intelliJ and point it to port 8000 (port number is specified in above cmd)
In case of IntelliJ IDEA the easiest way is to use maven's Run/Debug configuration.
Just add hpi:run in "Command line" filed and start Debug as usual.
When the console says that your "Jenkins is fully up and running", open a browser and go to http://localhost:8080/jenkins/ and your code will stopped at break point (if any).

Jenkins + CasperJS

I have a series of frontend tests written in CasperJS that I need to run in Jenkins. Here is command I run from the command line: casperjs test ./src/tests/**/ts_*.js --xunit=xunit.xml. This runs the tests and saves the xunit file. Ok. When I have Jenkins run the same command it gets through loading the first test page and spits out this error: "Process leaked file descriptors" and directs me to: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Spawning+processes+from+build
It provides an explanation and a few OS specific work arounds. The environment this will be run on will eventually be linux however my development environment is Windows and I don't understand the workaround they provide. What kind of file is that and how does it fit with Jenkins?
Does anyone have experience running CasperJS tests using Jenkins?
I installed jenkins as a service and use default settings.
I solved same issue on windows.
if you are running as a service and default home directory ( c:/program files(x86)/jenkins/ )
you have to change path to other normal folder(ex.c:/jenkins/").
SET JENKINS_HOME=c:\jenkins\
What I do with jenkins and casper:
I create a job with string parameter 'tests', which takes *.js or specified test
and try to run casper tests via Build -> Execute shell
cd ~/test_directory
casperjs test ${tests}

execute shell step skipped completely in jenkins

I can't seem to run a build execute shell step in Jenkins. I've worked with Hudson in the past on windows and I was able to create shell/batch steps without a problem but I seem to be be missing something here.
It's a fresh jenkins install and I go to "add build step", "execute shell" and enter "echo hi" in the command. I run the build and when I look in the console output, nothing happens.
I've also tried executing a test.sh file which also just echoes hi. I've tested this in both a linux install and an os X installed Jenkins server.
What am I missing in the configuration to run a shell script?
The console output shows that the shell script steps were skipped completely
Started by user admin
Finished: SUCCESS
It looks like Jenkins is not being able to redirect the output from the system. What version of Java are you using? If you're using OpenJDK, could you try with Sun Java/Sun JDK?
First test to try to check if anything is executing at all: add the following to your "Execute Shell"
#!/bin/bash
echo "HELLO WORLD" > /tmp/testfile
Run this and check if there is a /tmp/testfile in on your Linux system, and if it contains the HELLO WORLD text, it means your script is in fact executing.
Which version of Jenkins do you have?
The last good version that I can attest to (last one I know works well at least for us) is 1.447. If you're not using that one, would you be able to try with it?
Also, could you add #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash before echo hi on your "Execute Shell" for the Linux system and see if that works.
Also, try running a script using source /path/to/script and see if that works. The script should contain #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash as the first line, just to see if that makes a difference.
Note: none of this should be required, but is helpful just to get more information on what's going on. Couldn't fit all this into a comment. I'll update my answer based on your answers to the above, or delete if I can't get anything..
Putting this here for posterity.
I had a Jenkins project configured with Maven running clean test and a execute shell in the pre steps. The logs from Maven where not coming through and the script was not executing. Once I unchecked Build modules in parallel under the Maven build options my logs and scripts started working.
Make sure its in a location where Jenkins can see it, check permissions.
