🚀 Improvements
Added ability to run Testplane with local headless browsers on ubuntu (#1036)
With --local
cli option (or gridUrl: "local"
) Testplane will automatically download requested version of chrome
or firefox
and launch its webdriver before running Testplane tests itself. On ubuntu, it will also download necessary deb packages from apt repositories.
More about Testplane with local browsers: https://github.com/gemini-testing/testplane/releases/tag/v8.22.0
Supported ubuntu versions: 20, 22, 24
Note: if you are using remote ubuntu (e.g: virtual machine), you can only run browsers in headless mode.
Note: On ubuntu, you would probably need "--no-sandbox" arg for chrome browser:
// other chrome browser settings
desiredCapabilities: {
browserName: "chrome",
browserVersion: "130.0",
"goog:chromeOptions": { args: ["--no-sandbox"] }
}
