Running Scripts on Remote machine

sumeet

Is there a way we can have the Sahi running on one machine and scripts running on some remote machine pointing the proxy to machine where sahi running. And if so can we have multiple suites running on multiple remote machines with 5 threads of IE on each machine.

Sumeet,

Currently, when a suite runs, the browser instances are opened on the machine where the proxy is. So what you can do currently is, have multiple Sahi proxies on different machines, each designated to run a different suite of tests.

SahiProxyMachine1 : suite1
SahiProxyMachine2 : suite2
SahiProxyMachine3 : suite3

Then invoke them from your build environment using the sahi target or testrunner batch file.
You will need to invoke that target 3 times one for each SahiProxyMachine and each target should have the SahiHost and SahiPort configured to point to one of the SahiProxyMachines

    <target name="runietests1">
        <antcall target="proxyon"/>
        <sahi suite="../scripts/demo/demo.suite"
              browser="C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe"
              baseurl="http://narayan:10000/demo/"
              sahihost="SahiProxyMachine1"
              sahiport="9999"
              failureproperty="sahi.failed"
              haltonfailure="false"
          browserProcessName="iexplore.exe"
              threads="3"
                >
            <report type="html"/>
            <report type="junit" logdir="${basedir}/temp/junit"/>
        </sahi>
        <antcall target="proxyoff"/>
        <antcall target="failsahi"/>
    </target>

Have 2 more of these targets runietests2 pointing to SahiProxyMachine2 and runietests3 pointing to SahiProxyMachine3. Run them in parallel via ant, and then write some script or program to consolidate the logs into one place.

Email me if you need assistance on this.
