32 | ## Prerequisites
33 |
34 | Before you can start performing **Python 3** automation testing using **pytest**, you would need to:
35 |
36 | * Install the latest Python build from the [official website](https://www.python.org/downloads/). We recommend using the latest version.
37 | * Make sure **pip** is installed in your system. You can install **pip** from [here](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/).
38 | * Download the latest **Selenium Client** and its **WebDriver bindings** from the [official website](https://www.selenium.dev/downloads/). Latest versions of **Selenium Client** and **WebDriver** are ideal for running your automation script on LambdaTest Selenium cloud grid.
39 | * Install **virtualenv** which is the recommended way to run your tests. 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.
40 |
41 | ```bash
42 | pip install virtualenv
43 | ```
44 | ### Installing Selenium Dependencies And Tutorial Repo
45 |
46 | **Step 1:** Clone the LambdaTest’s pytest-selenium-sample repository and navigate to the code directory as shown below:
47 | ```bash
48 | git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/pytest-selenium-sample
49 | cd pytest-selenium-sample
50 | ```
51 | **Step 2:** Create a virtual environment in your project folder the environment name is arbitrary.
52 | ```bash
53 | virtualenv venv
54 | ```
55 | **Step 3:** Activate the environment.
56 | ```bash
57 | source venv/bin/activate
58 | ```
59 | **Step 4:** Install the [required packages](https://github.com/LambdaTest/pytest-selenium-sample/blob/master/requirements.txt) from the cloned project directory:
60 | ```bash
61 | pip install -r requirements.txt
62 | ```
63 |
64 | ### Setting Up Your Authentication
65 |
66 | Make sure you have your LambdaTest credentials with you to run test automation scripts. You can get these credentials from the [LambdaTest Automation Dashboard](https://automation.lambdatest.com/build/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=pytest-selenium-sample) or by your [LambdaTest Profile](https://accounts.lambdatest.com/login/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=pytest-selenium-sample).
67 |
68 | **Step 5:** Set LambdaTest **Username** and **Access Key** in environment variables.
69 |
70 | * For **Linux/macOS**:
71 |
72 | ```bash
73 | export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
74 | export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
75 | ```
76 | * For **Windows**:
77 | ```bash
78 | set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
79 | set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
80 | ```
81 |
82 | ## Run Your First Test
83 |
84 | >**Test Scenario**: The [lt_sample_todo.py](https://github.com/LambdaTest/pytest-selenium-sample/blob/master/tests/lt_sample_todo.py) sample script tests a simple to-do application with basic functionalities like mark items as done, add items in a list, calculate total pending items etc.
85 |
86 | ### Configuration Of Your Test Capabilities
87 |
88 | **Step 6:** In the python script, you need to update your test capabilities. In this code, we are passing browser, browser version, and operating system information, along with LambdaTest Selenium grid capabilities via capabilities object.
89 |
90 | The capabilities object in the above code are defined as:
91 |
92 | ```python
93 | capabilities = {
94 | "build": "your build name",
95 | "name": "your test name",
96 | "platformName": "Windows 10"
97 | "browserName": "Chrome",
98 | "browserVersion": "latest",
99 | }
100 | ```
101 | You can generate capabilities for your test requirements with the help of our inbuilt [Desired Capability Generator](https://www.lambdatest.com/capabilities-generator/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=pytest-selenium-sample).
102 |
103 |
104 | ### Executing The Test
105 |
106 | **Step 7:** You would need to execute the below command in your terminal/cmd.
107 |
108 | ```bash
109 | pytest -s tests/lt_sample_todo.py
110 | ```
111 | Your test results would be displayed on the test console (or command-line interface if you are using terminal/cmd) and on LambdaTest automation dashboard. [LambdaTest Automation Dashboard](https://automation.lambdatest.com/build/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=pytest-selenium-sample) will help you view all your text logs, screenshots and video recording for your entire automation tests.
112 |
113 | ## Run Your Parallel Tests Using PyTest Framework
114 |
115 | To run parallel tests using PyTest, we would have to execute the below command in the terminal:
116 |
117 | ```bash
118 | pytest --workers 2 -s tests/lt_sample_todo.py
119 | ```
120 |
121 | ## Testing Locally Hosted Or Privately Hosted Projects
122 |
123 | You can test your locally hosted or privately hosted projects with LambdaTest Selenium grid using LambdaTest Tunnel. All you would have to do is set up an SSH tunnel using tunnel and pass toggle `tunnel = True` via desired capabilities. LambdaTest Tunnel establishes a secure SSH protocol based tunnel that allows you in testing your locally hosted or privately hosted pages, even before they are live.
124 |
125 | Refer our [LambdaTest Tunnel documentation](https://www.lambdatest.com/support/docs/testing-locally-hosted-pages/) for more information.
126 |
127 | Here’s how you can establish LambdaTest Tunnel.
128 |
129 | Download the binary file of:
130 | * [LambdaTest Tunnel for Windows](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/windows/64bit/LT_Windows.zip)
131 | * [LambdaTest Tunnel for macOS](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/mac/64bit/LT_Mac.zip)
132 | * [LambdaTest Tunnel for Linux](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/linux/64bit/LT_Linux.zip)
133 |
134 | Open command prompt and navigate to the binary folder.
135 |
136 | Run the following command:
137 |
138 | ```bash
139 | LT -user {user’s login email} -key {user’s access key}
140 | ```
141 | So if your user name is lambdatest@example.com and key is 123456, the command would be:
142 |
143 | ```bash
144 | LT -user lambdatest@example.com -key 123456
145 | ```
146 | Once you are able to connect **LambdaTest Tunnel** successfully, you would just have to pass on tunnel capabilities in the code shown below :
147 |
148 | **Tunnel Capability**
149 |
150 | ```
151 | "tunnel" = true
152 | ```
