Testing and QA

After having regular compatibility issues every time FireFox upgraded I have switched to using Chrome for running behat tests on Sierra. That has been much more stable.

I currently have:

• Selenium Standalone Server: 3.0.1, revision: '1969d75'
  
• ChromeDriver: 2.25.426935
  
• Chrome: 56.0.2924.87
• Selenium launch command:
  

  java -jar -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=<path/to/chromedriver> selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar

• In my Moodle config.php file,
  

  $CFG->behat_config = array(
  #    'default' => array(
  #        'formatter' => array(
  #            'name' => 'pretty',
  #            'parameters' => array(
  #                'decorated' => true,
  #                'verbose' => true
  #            )
  #        )
  #    ),
      'chrome' => array(
         'extensions' => array(
             'Behat\MinkExtension\Extension' => array(
                 'selenium2' => array(
                     'browser' => 'chrome',
                 )
             )
         )
      ),
      'firefox' => array(
          'extensions' => array(
              'Behat\MinkExtension\Extension' => array(
                  'selenium2' => array(
                      'browser' => 'firefox',
                  )
              )
          )
      ),
      'safari' => array(
          'extensions' => array(
              'Behat\MinkExtension\Extension' => array(
                  'selenium2' => array(
                      'browser' => 'safari',
                  )
              )
          )
      )
  );

• This config is not using a 'default' profile, though I could probably just make it Chrome at this point since that's what I generally use. As it stands I set the profile when I run the behat tests by including a profile flag:
  

  --profile=chrome

I have had to upgrade selenium and chromedriver once or twice over the past year or so, but I find that the latest versions have worked with the latest versions of Chrome.

I think that covers my set-up. Hope it helps!
