How To Enable Selenium Grid Logs

[Ajay Verma]

Could anyone please let me know, How we can enable logs in selenium grid i.e. I am having 8 node grid, i want logs for each node, Any leads would be appreciable. 

[⇜Krishnan Mahadevan⇝]

Selenium uses java.utils.logging.

So you basically refer to a logging tutorial such as this one http://tutorials.jenkov.com/java-logging/overview.html and create a logging configuration file and then pass it on to the JVM when you start the node. That should turn on the logs on the node.

Is that what you are looking for?

Thanks & Regards

Hi  Krishnan 

Thnx for your reply, I am using selenium logging in my local system using log4j, In log4j properties file i have given the Path of E drive where my logs should generate, In my local sysytem 

it is working fine, However when i am executing the same on Hub, it is giving me error "The system cannot find the path specified". How we can enable selenium grid logs so that it should capture on every node.

I have setup the Hub and Nodes through command line, Is there any command which i have to execute on every node so that log file should generate there.

Hi  Krishnan

I am part of Automation COE, WE have setup the grid  with 8 nodes which is up and running.Below are the commands which i have used for setup of hub and node

HUB:

java -jar C:\selenium-server-standalone-3.14.0.jar -role hub

Node1:

"java -Dwebdriver.ie.driver=C:/driver/IEDriverServer.exe -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:/driver/chromedriver.exe -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver="C:/driver/geckodriver.exe" -jar C:\selenium-server-standalone-3.14.0.jar -port 5555 -role node -hub http://10.236.72.171:4444/grid/register -browser "browserName=firefox, maxInstances=3, platform=WINDOWS" -browser "browserName=internet explorer, version=11, platform=WINDOWS, maxInstances=2" -browser "browserName=chrome,version=ANY,maxInstances=3,platform=WINDOWS" -timeout 120000 -browserTimeout 60000"

Node2:

"java -Dwebdriver.ie.driver=C:/driver/IEDriverServer.exe -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:/driver/chromedriver.exe -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver="C:/driver/geckodriver.exe" -jar C:\selenium-server-standalone-3.14.0.jar -port 5556 -role node -hub http://10.236.72.171:4444/grid/register -browser "browserName=firefox, maxInstances=3, platform=WINDOWS" -browser "browserName=internet explorer, version=11, platform=WINDOWS, maxInstances=2" -browser "browserName=chrome,version=ANY,maxInstances=3,platform=WINDOWS" -timeout 120000 -browserTimeout 60000"  

Likewise we have created 8 nodes....

I am able to execute my selenium executions on all the nodes well(except Logging). I am using LOG4J for logging purpose, Below is my Log4j property file

log4j.logger.devpinoyLogger=DEBUG, dest1

log4j.appender.dest1=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender

log4j.appender.dest1.maxFileSize=900KB

log4j.appender.dest1.maxBackupIndex=6

log4j.appender.dest1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.dest1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss} %c %m%n

log4j.appender.dest1.File=E:\\Selenium_logs\\logs.log

log4j.appender.dest1.Append=false

When i am running my script in local machine, I am getting the logs in E drive.

I have created a folder on every node with Selenium_logs in E drive, However when i run my execution on nodes i am getting this error "E:\Selenium_logs\logs.log (The system cannot find the path specified)"

Is there any console command(as we setup the node)  which i need to run in order to turn  logging on in each node.

Ajay,

I don’t think the error you are facing has anything to do with Selenium. It seems to be more of a log4j issue (log4j is not able to either find the file or perhaps there is some permission issues which is preventing the file from being created (I have seen Java complain with the same error for permission issues as well).

 

So you might want to take a look at that angle.

 

>>> Is there any console command(as we setup the node)  which i need to run in order to turn on logging on in each node.

Not that I am aware of. You have a “-debug” flag which turns on debug logs and prints them on the console (You could use a redirection operator “>” to redirect it to a file though), but that’s not the same as managing logs via a logging framework such as log4j.

 

 

 

Thanks & Regards
