Automate JMeter and Selenium Tests To Run in Parallel

Continuous Integration (CI) is as must for DevOps and is a key element of agile development methodologies. CI enables developers to continuously integrate new or modified code into a shared repository and verify it with an automated build. Tests are run continuously, enabling teams to detect errors quickly and easily. CI tools automate this process, so teams can run these tests every day or even every hour.

\Taurus, an open-source test automation framework, can be integrated with CI tools with plugins, to automate open-source tools, like JMeter for load testing and functional test quickly on a single browser with Selenium. It lets them run tests automatically and in parallel to achieve better test coverage.

Teams can also run the load and functional tests in the cloud using Sauce Labs & BlazeMeter, be able to view and analyze test results for JMeter and Selenium through rich reports and identify issues and trends early. In this meetup, we will show you how teams can easily scale functional tests using Sauce Labs across various browsers, devices and OSs, and use BlazeMeter for Load & Performance Testing. You'll see how to:

• Download and Install latest Taurus Binaries

• Build or import 2 scripts: One for Selenium that automates the browser, one for JMeter

• Run each test locally at first, to ensure it runs well before committing it shared repository

• Use Jenkins to trigger functional & Load Testing as part of CI cycle
