For this document, we provide complete example files in our Azure Pipelines GitHub Repository.
Azure Pipelines is a continuous integration tool that lets you automate your development process quickly, safely, and at scale. Through Azure Pipelines’ integration with GitHub, GitHub Enterprise, Azure Repos Git & TFVC, Bitbucket Cloud, and Subversion, every time you commit code, a build is created and automatically run in a clean container or virtual machine, allowing you to test every commit.
In this guide we will use Azure Pipelines for testing using the Selenium WebDriver and Python programming language.
Set up Azure Pipelines
-
Sign into your Azure DevOps organization or follow the detailed guide to create a new one.
-

Add file test_selenium.py.
Python
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
import os, time
username = os.getenv("CBT_USERNAME")
authkey = os.getenv("CBT_AUTHKEY")
caps = {
'platform': 'Windows',
'browserName': 'Chrome',
}
driver = webdriver.Remote(
command_executor="http://%s:%[email protected]/wd/hub"%(username, authkey),
desired_capabilities=caps)
driver.get("http://www.google.com")
if not "Google" in driver.title:
raise Exception("Unable to load google page!")
elem = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
elem.send_keys("CrossBrowserTesting")
elem.submit()
print(driver.title)
driver.quit() -
Add file requirements.txt
requests==2.22.0
selenium==3.141.0
