[rc] : Could not start Selenium Session

[t_brc]

hey guys,

I am having with the selenium session not being started. Not sure if
this is because of my logical structure of test infrastructure.
here is my setup overview

**************************BuildTestClass********************************
public Class BuildTest {

@BeforeClass
setup()
{
//code for all selenium setup (reading properties etc..)
seleniumServer.start();
selenium.start();
}
@AfterClass
tearDown()
{
selenium.stop();
seleniumServer.stop();
}
}
**************************BuildTestClass********************************
**************************SeleniumTestSuiteClass********************************
@RunWith(Suite.class)
@Suite.SuiteClasses
(
{
Test01.class,
Test02.class

}
)

public Class SeleniumTestSuite
{
public static Test suite()
{
return new JUnit4TestAdapter(SeleniumSuiteTest.class);
}
}
**************************SeleniumTestSuiteClass********************************
**************************Test01Class********************************
public class Test01 extends BuildTest
{

@Test
public void logintest01()
{
....
}
}
**************************Test01Class********************************
**************************Test02Class********************************
public class Test02 extends BuildTest
{

@Test
public void logintest02()
{
....
}
}
**************************Test02Class********************************

Now if I execute seleniumTestSuite, seleniumServer is started,
Test01.class is executed as expected, during execution of Test02.class
it throws an exception

Hi,
 
Try using @BeforeSuite and @AfterSuite rather than @afterClass and @BeforeClass..

Let me know if u still have problem.
