I am working as a QA-Automation for a company. I wanted to contribute to selenium webdriver v3.0.2. I started working on it. Forked the project from https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium Cloned the selenium source Now I want to setup and run the sample tests in the project and I want to configure to my eclipse. I am just stuck this point. It would be very much helpful if anyone shares the solutions. Thanks in advance.

We include the necessary config files to allow you to just open the project in eclipse. Everything should Just Work from there. However, most of the developers doing Java work are using IntelliJ, and it's been a long time since I tried to do anything in Eclipse. The Community Edition of IJ is free to download and is excellent.

Kind regards,

Simon

Quirky. You may need to run "./go repack-jetty" before the build will run successfully from the IDE the first time.

Thanks Simon,

Now as a newbie to selenium source I am getting a grip on the source. I'll contribute to the project whenever free. Once again thanks for the reply.

I should write up the notes from a "fix a bug, become a committer" workshop.
