I'm trying to run multiple test cases that are placed in different classes, but when I run the code, the last class creates a new instance of chrome driver. This code is related to company's work hence I can't share the full code in detail but I'll try sharing as much as I can to help you understand better.
Here's the code:
Main Class:
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
public class Main1 {
public static WebDriver driver;
public static WebDriverWait w;
@BeforeClass
public void setUp() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\Person\\Downloads\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe");
driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
}
}
Second Class:
import java.time.Duration;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
import org.testng.annotations.*;
public class Second extends Main{
@BeforeClass
public void openWebsite() {
driver.get("http://www.example.com");
System.out.println("Verfying Title...");
String expTitle = "Company Title";
String actualTitle = driver.getTitle();
if (expTitle.equals(actualTitle)) {
System.out.println("Title Verified");
} else {
System.out.println("Title Not Verified");
}
}
@Test(priority=1)
public void companyCode() {
w = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(30));
//Dropdown to select company
}
@Test(priority=2)
public void reload() {
w = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(2));
//Click another tab on the application and click reload
@Test(priority=3)
public void orgtree() {
By by = By.xpath("//span[normalize-space()='node']//preceding-sibling::div[2]");
retryingFindClick(driver, by); //Click Expand node
//clicking on elements on the website
}
public boolean retryingFindClick(WebDriver driver, By by) {
boolean result = false;
int attempts = 0;
while(attempts < 5) {
try {
driver.findElement(by).click();
result = true;
break;
} catch(Exception e) {
}
attempts++;
}
return result;
}
}
Last class:
import java.time.Duration;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
import org.testng.annotations.*;
public class Last extends Main {
@Test
public void Window1() {
w = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(2));
//Click on a window on the website
}
}
XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "https://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="TestSuite1">
<test thread-count="5" name="Test1">
<classes>
<class name="test.Main"/>
<class name="test.Second"/>
<class name="test.Last"/>
</classes>
</test> <!-- Test1 -->
</suite> <!-- TestSuite1 -->
Now the problem is, until the Second Class, the execution is taking place in the single instance of browser, but when it comes to the execution of Last Class, a new instance of browser is created and then it starts from the beginning. I want all the test cases of any class I add in xml file to run in one single instance.
There were many other methods I tried before this but I got an error every time such as "cannot instantiate Second class" or invocation error etc. This is the best method I tried and I'm not getting any error but I don't know why the Last Class is creating a new instance when it is suppose to run right after the execution of Second Class as directed in xml file
