How to run the Selenium RC script using webDriver2.3?

[Santosh B]

I am a new user of webdriver. I already have the regression test
framework using selenium 1.0.3.
Now we are plannning to upgrade the present framework to selenium
webdriver. while trying to run the RC script on Webdriver, I am
getting the following failure trace:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not contact Selenium Server; have
you started it on 'localhost:4444' ?

Please let me know what all changes required in the below RC script to
run on the Web driver without running the selenium server.

/*Selenium RC Script start*/
package testdriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import com.thoughtworks.selenium.*;

public class testRC extends SeleneseTestCase {
// We create our Selenium test case

public void setUp() throws Exception {
setUp("http://www.google.com/", "*firefox");
// We instantiate and start the browser
}

public void testNew() throws Exception {
selenium.open("/");
selenium.type("q", "selenium rc");
selenium.click("btnG");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad("10000");
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("Google"));
}
}

You need to use the WebDriverBackedSelenium class:

Thanks Luke,

As per the help given on the link mentioned by you, I need to replace
the below code:

Selenium selenium = new DefaultSelenium(
"localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.yoursite.com");
selenium.start();

with the below code:
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
Selenium selenium = new WebDriverBackedSelenium(driver, "http://
www.yoursite.com");

However I am not using any class as below in my script:
Selenium selenium = new DefaultSelenium(
"localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "http://www.yoursite.com");
selenium.start();

What changes I need to do in my Selenium RC script

Thanks,
Santosh B

You are extending from "SeleneseTestCase".

You would need to get out of that mode, and start working with WebDriverBackedSelenium instance.

Thanks & Regards
