Normal Remote Execution
This option can be used when you are aware of the remote machine details where you wish to execute your test cases. Please note that here you choose to execute Offline Package on a remote machine with specific details.
...
- Download the selenium-standalone-jar on the target machine where you want to execute test cases.
- Download the drivers corresponding to the offline execution browser (chromedriver, IEdriverServer, and so on) and store it in the same location where the selenium-stand-alone-jar is saved.
- Open the Command Prompt window and navigate to the location where jar is stored.
- Do one of the following:
- If the execution browser is Iexpore and selenium sever standalone version is 2.xx.x, execute following command: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.45.0.jar - Dwebdriver.ie.driver="D:\Data\Testing\Apps\IEDriverServer.exe”.
- If the execution browser is Iexpore and selenium sever standalone version is 3.xx.x, execute following command: java -Dwebdriver.ie.driver="D:\Data\Testing\Apps\IEDriverServer.exe" -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar
- If the execution browser is Iexpore and selenium sever standalone version is 2.xx.x, execute following command: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.45.0.jar - Dwebdriver.ie.driver="D:\Data\Testing\Apps\IEDriverServer.exe”.
Configuration Settings
Once you download Selenium-stand-alone jar and browser drivers, you need you change some settings in the qualitia.properties file in order to run Normal Remote Execution.
...
- Open the qualitia.properties file from the config folder of offline package.
- Set the ExecutionEnvironment value as
- Set the RemoteURL value to a valid remote URL that is IP and port of remote machine.
For example: RemoteURL=http://192.168.25.123:4445

It uses browsers available on local machine for test case executions. For example, if you have selected "Firefox" as an execution browser and the local machine has Firefox version 42, Qualitia continues execution using Firefox version 42. Execution Reports are displayed on the local machine after executing the test cases.
Execution using Browser Capabilities
You can execute test cases on remote environment using selenium supported Browser Capabilities.
For more information about executing test cases using browser capabilities, refer to the Execution using Browser Capabilities section.
Mobile Test Case Executions
In order to execute mobile test cases on the remote machine, make sure that Appium server is up and running on the designated remote machine.
For more information about installing Appium Server, refer to the Qualitia Online Help.
Remote Execution through Selenium Grid
What is Hub?
The Hub is the main command center for managing which machines your test will run on. This is where you can see list of all the available nodes currently running in your grid environment (Remote Execution Environment).
What is Node?
A Node is a machine that you register with your Hub. By registering with Hub, the Hub now knows about the Node and any configuration information you used when you registered the node.
In order to perform remote execution through selenium grid, you need to configure Hub and Node in the network.
Creating Hub in the Network
A Hub can be created in the network following the steps mentioned below.
- Decide a machine in the network to register as hub (with IP, for example, 192.168.25.6).
- Download the Selenium-server-standalone jar file on Hub machine.
- Open Command Prompt and navigate to the location where Selenium-server-standalone-jar is saved.
- Execute command "java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.xx.0.jar-role hub -port 4445".
Create Node and Register to Hub
Once hub is created in the network, you can select multiple machines to act as its nodes. Registering nodes include following steps.
...

You can bundle your IEServerDriver.exe, Geckodriver.exe, or ChromeDriver.exe running while registering to Hub. |
Configuration Settings
Prior executing test cases in remote execution in selenium grid, you need to configure settings accordingly. Here are some important points to keep in mind when configuring settings for remote execution in selenium grid.
- Selenium server jar version used in Qualitia offline package and downloaded at remote machines including Hub and Nodes should be same all over.
- Java needs to be installed and configured in computer’s environment path.
- Port number used for hub is changeable and default port number is 4444.
- As hub selects node for execution at its own at run time, you cannot provide details for specific OS / Platform.
- To know more about how to setup Selenium grid hub and node it is recommend using the selenium grid links given below.
To configure settings for remote execution in selenium grid:
- Open the qualitia.properties file from the config folder of offline package.
- Set the ExecutionEnvironment value as remote to inform qualitia-offline.jar that offline package has to be executed on a remote machine.
- Set the RemoteURL value to a valid remote URL that is IP and port of remote machine. For example: RemoteURL=http://192.168.25.123:4445
- Set the GridPlatform value to valid platform where you want to execute test cases. For example: Set the GridPlatform=Win10

Mobile Test Case Execution on Nodes
In order to execute mobile test cases using selenium grid, make sure that Appium server is up and running on the designated node.
