can you do parallel testing in junit? code example
Example 1: parallel testing in junit
To run parallel testing in Junit
We are using maven-surefire plugin
in pom.xml file.
We can specify how many threads we
want to run as at the same time.
We also have to make some changes
in Driver class. We need to use
"ThreadLocal<WebDriver> instead of
"WebDriver" Because "WebDriver"
generates only a single WebDriver object,
but "ThreadLocal<WebDriver>" generates
multiple browser to run parallel testing.
<testFailureIgnore>TRUE</testFailureIgnore>
<parallel>METHODS</parallel>
<threadCount>40</threadCount>
<forkCount>2C</forkCount>
<perCoreThreadCount>false</perCoreThreadCount>
<include>**
Example 2: parallel testing in junit
If we use JUNIT, we can use maven plugins to run tests in parallel.
In maven-surefire-plugin, we can specify how many threads we want to open
at the same time.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.18.1</version>
<configuration>
<parallel>classes</parallel> ==> you can choose classes or methods
<threadCount>5</threadCount> ==> how many browser will be launched
<includes>
<includetest1.java</include>
<includetest2.java</include>
<includetest3.java</include>
<includetest4.java</include>
</includes>
<testFailureIgnore>true</testFailureIgnore>
</configuration>
</plugin>
We also have to make some changes in Driver class. We need to use
"ThreadLocal<WebDriver> driverPool" instead of "WebDriver driver".
Because "WebDriver" generates only a single WebDriver object,
whereas "ThreadLocal<WebDriver>" generates multiple browser to run
parallel testing.
In TestNG it is very easy and efficient to perform
