|
## Firefox
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing works for Firefox with Linux and Windows and Mac, using both Selenium 1 and (preferably) Webdriver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Safari
|
|
|
|
Automated testing works for Safari on Windows, using Selenium 1. Webdriver does not provide a driver for Safari. See [http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=599](http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=599)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Chrome
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing for Chrome works on Linux and Windows, using Selenium 1 and Webdriver. However, the Chrome driver on Linux has a serious limitation at the moment: it is not possible to take screenshots ([http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=89777#c4](http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=89777#c4)). Hence it is recommended to use Selenium 1 when you execute a set of tests that includes visual reftests and the faster Webdriver API otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use Webdriver, a ChromeDriver server should be installed on the test machine. See
|
|
|
|
[http://code.google.com/p/chromium/downloads/list](http://code.google.com/p/chromium/downloads/list)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Internet Explorer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing works for Internet Explorer using Selenium 1 and Webdriver. However, selection of Internet Explorer's compatibility mode is not implemented yet when Webdriver is used (default mode is Quirks). See [http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=2564](http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=2564)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
IE9 with Selenium 1 is very slow and timeout happens too often!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use Webdriver, you should follow the instructions in "Required Configuration":
|
|
|
|
[http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver](http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On IE 7 or higher on Windows Vista or Windows 7, you must set the Protected Mode settings for each zone to be the same value. The value can be on or off, as long as it is the same for every zone. To set the Protected Mode settings, choose "Internet Options..." from the Tools menu, and click on the Security tab. For each zone, there will be a check box at the bottom of the tab labeled "Enable Protected Mode".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike other WebDriver classes, there should only ever be a single InternetExplorerDriver instance at once on a given machine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Konqueror
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<del>Automated testing works for Konqueror on Linux, using Selenium 1</del>. Webdriver does not provide a driver for Konqueror.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**It fails with the latest Selenium version, last time I tried!**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Opera
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing works for Opera on Linux/Windows, using Webdriver. (I was also able to make Selenium 1 work with Opera, but it is better to use the Webdriver interface).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that MathJax support for STIX fonts is disabled with Opera, so it's preferable to use TeX fonts for testing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows Vista and 7 the program files directory is not writable. If you run Opera 11.5x from this location you will get an error beginning "Opera has failed to access or upgrade your profile". To solve that issue, you have to install Opera in a custom location and set the OPERA_PATH accordingly. See [https://github.com/operasoftware/operadriver#readme](https://github.com/operasoftware/operadriver#readme)

|
|
## iPhone
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing for iPhone would require a Mac (and Webdriver) and thus I have not tested it yet.
|
|
|
|
See [http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/IPhoneDriver](http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/IPhoneDriver)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## HTMLUnit
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
HTMLUnit is a GUI-less browser which uses the Rhino JavaScript engine. Automated testing works for it on Linux/Windows using Webdriver. Obviously, visual reftest are not relevant for this configuration and thus are skipped.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Android
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated testing works for Android (on Linux), using Webdriver. I have only tested it using the emulator (not real Device).
|
|
|
|
See [http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/AndroidDriver](http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/AndroidDriver)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation says to setup port forwarding to make the android server available at http://localhost:8080/wd/hub. However, this address seems to be only reachable from the machine on which the emulator is running. Consequently, I've only be able to make it work when the test runner and Android emulator are on the same machine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Similarly, the address http://localhost/ does not seem reachable from the emulator, so I've used http://devel.mathjax.org instead to get the test suite pages and MathJax scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Obviously, the screen resolution is lower on a mobile, so that may be problematic for some visual reftests. |
