Cucumber - Selenium webdriver(running multiple browser) - Support- env.rb Configuration

[Ifeoma Emodi]

Hi 

I am new to cucumber and as well as in Ruby, am creating a project in Ruby and this is my folder structure

Feature - Step definition

            - Support - env.rb

            -  Gemfile

            - Gemfile.lock

The issue am facing is where do I specify what browser to be used and if both can run at the same time using the format below

Parameters("browser")

BeforeTest

    public void setup(String browser){

        

    

        if (browser.equalsIgnoreCase("firefox"))

        {

            System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "\Users\<name>\Desktop\Automation\Jar\geckodriver.exe");

            driver = new FirefoxDriver();

        

        }

        else if (browser.equalsIgnoreCase("chrome"))

        {

            

            System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "\Users\<name>\Desktop\Automation\Jar\chromedriver.exe");

            driver = new ChromeDriver();

        }

        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30,TimeUnit.SECONDS);

        driver.manage().window().maximize();

    }

Am current using Macbook and am using selenium webdriver with a little bit of Ruby that I have learnt so far. 

I will be grateful if someone can assist me with this 

Thanks

Ifeoma,

I typically use an environment variable to specify which browser I want
to use. Then my build script can run the tests with each browser I want
to check.

Hi Ifeoma,

I also suggest to search for open source projects in Github.com.

I personally use this technique a lot for learning.
