Learn the how to get started with Smart UI testing with Selenium Python on the LambdaTest platform with SmartUI

Pre-requisites

In order to run your Smart UI tests with Selenium Python, you will need to set your LambdaTest username and access key in the environment variables. Click the Access Key button at the top-right of the Automation Dashboard to access it.

Windows

set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME" 
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"

macOS/Linux

export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME" 
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"

To create a New Project using the SmartUI Web Application, click the New Project button in the top-right corner of your dashboard.

Fill in the specifications such as Platform, Project Name, Approvers, and Tags as per your requirement and click Create Project.

Install pip and Python.

sudo apt install python-pip
sudo apt install python

The recommended way to run your tests would be in virtualenv. It will isolate the build from other setups you may have running and ensure that the tests run with the specified versions of the modules specified in the requirements.txt file.

pip install virtualenv

Running Your First Selenium Python Test

To get started, clone the Python-Selenium-Sample Repository.

git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/smartui-python-sample

Next, create and activate the virtual environment in the Python-Selenium-Sample folder.

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Inside the Python-Selenium-Sample folder, export the LambdaTest Credentials. You can get these from your automation dashboard.
To run your first test, run the below given command.

python test.py

Setting Up Github App Integration with SmartUI

Steps 1: Integrate the your Lambdatest Account with GitHub App.

You can integrate your LambdaTest account with the GiHub application in the following ways:

Using OAuth

Step 2: Select your GitHub repository

Go to your GitHub repository where you want to configure your SmartUI project. Check out our GitHub sample here.

Step 3: Configure your test suite

Add the Github capability to your current test configuration:

const capabilities: {
  platform: "Windows 10",
  browserName: "chrome",
  version: "latest",
  "smartUI.project": "Smart UI sample test",
   github: {
    "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/OWNER/REPO/statuses/commitId", // Mandatory
    "owner": "{OWNER}",  //Optional
    "repo": "{REPO}",  //Optional
    "commit": "{commitId}" //Optional
   }
}

Step 4: Setting up your CI configuration

Setting up your CI workflow to execute on GitHub. Here is an example setup with GitHub Actions:

Go to .github/workflows/<your_ci_file>.yml.

    name: Execute SmartUI Test with Github App Integration
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v1

    - name: Create commit status
      run: |
        API_HOST=https://api.github.com
        # Check out the PR branch
        git checkout $GITHUB_HEAD_REF
        # Get the commit ID of the last commit
        COMMIT_ID=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
        echo "Last commit ID of PR: $COMMIT_ID"
        GITHUB_URL=$API_HOST/repos/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY/statuses/$COMMIT_ID
        echo "GITHUB_URL: $GITHUB_URL"
        echo "GITHUB_URL=$GITHUB_URL" >> $GITHUB_ENV

Step5: Execute your test suite with CI

After the setup is completed, you can now execute your test suite with the Continuos Integration (CI) pipeline with any tool of your choice.

Step 6: Commit you changes over git on a branch and raise the PR to main branch.

Step 7: Now you will see the `lambdatest-smartui-app` in the PR.
