I am using Eclipse+Maven based Robot Framework with Java implementation of SeleniumLibrary.
I could execute tests in sauce labs but it executes only on one VM. Has anyone achieved parallel execution of robot tests in Sauce Labs say in multiple VMs? Or can anyone guide to achieve this? Thanks in advance.
This is what I am using to run on multiple concurrent VM's on saucelabs. I have a 1-click batch file that uses start pybot to invoke parallel execution. Example:
ECHO starting parallel run on saucelabs.com
cd c:\base\dir\script
ECHO Win7/Chrome40:
start pybot -v REMOTE_URL:http://user:[email protected]:80/wd/hub -T -d results/Win7Chrome40 -v DESIRED_CAPABILITIES:"name:Win7 + Chrome40, platform:Windows 7, browserName:chrome, version:40" tests/test.robot
ECHO Win8/IE11
start pybot -v REMOTE_URL:http://user:[email protected]:80/wd/hub -T -d results/Win8IE11 -v DESIRED_CAPABILITIES:"name:Win8 + IE11, platform:Windows 8.1, browserName:internet explorer, version:11" tests/test.robot
-T tells pybot to not overwrite result logs but create a timestamped log for each run
-d specifies where the results will go
Works like a charm!
A parallel executor for Robot Framework tests. With Pabot you can split one execution into multiple and save test execution time. https://github.com/mkorpela/pabot
