Able to run my first test on docker. Observed that testng took 31 second and without it time taken was 26 seconds. Thanks to you.. Keep making videos

Can we run the same commands in docker playground lab and expect our automation scripts to run?

I need to execute selenium tests on the Chrome browser from a dockerized java application. Can this same method be extended to meet this need or should a different approach be used?

Hi Amuthan,

I am facing site not it says 'this site can not be reached' issue eventhough In logs it says selenium server is up and running in port 4444.

I tried to access with localhost and using my machine IP also but still faced same issue. Can you advise on this.

Hi Amuthan,
Your videos are very informative. I tried creating selenium server through docker. In logs it says selenium server is up and running in port 4444. But when I hit the localhost:4444 url, it says 'this site can not be reached'. I am not sure what I am missing. Please help if possible.
Thanks

Need small help, i am getting error " The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (windows/amd64) and no specific platform was requested" I did "switch to linux container" from docker icon after right click... still i could see option of "Switch to linux container"

I need to run selenium inside kubernetes, should i also use selenium/standalone-chrome image? Im really confused because from other resources they are using grid and hub

[mjjtube]

Great video Amuthan. while running tests in parallel using docker should we ensure that our browser is thread safe ?

[vinothkumars]

Hi Amuthan, Great video, i tried the same steps today itseems the chromestandalone is updated with selenium 4 grid and there is slight difference is selenium grid UI but the code works fine. Also i just want to know can we spin up a linux container from windows and install docker in it like inner container is it possible instead of AWS or any cloud solutions your thoughts please.

Getting Error

Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

My problem is don't have any localhost for pair these port.
Am I missing something about create localhost ? I haven't seen it until part 43.
