Chrome, IE & Safari exe WebDriver to be accessed as dependency or resource from external project

[Engr. Riaz Ahmed Memon]

Hi All,

I have designed a testSuite and provided Chrome, IE and Safari exe webdrivers to launch testSuite in Chrome, IE and Safari browsers. Now i want them to be accessed either by dependency or from any external project. Kindly let me know how to do it?

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

Can you please elaborate your implementation ? When you say webdrivers are you talking about the server binaries or are you talking about your test code ?

Thanks & Regards

Yes, I am talking about server binaries. Can i use them as dependency or provide them in a jar as a separate project.

No you cannot do that. Dependencies make sense only when they are as jars.

What type of dependency or external project?

Say if you have a maven project, you can place the driver binaries under /src/test/resources branch (or path). And if the maven project is in version control or some repository, whenever it is copied/cloned to some local machine, it gets the same folder structure. So all tests can reference/find the binaries by the relative maven project path to the test resources.
