Running Selenium scripts on Cloud Testing
This HowTo covers running your Selenium test script using the Cloud Testing service. It assumes that you have already captured and uploaded/imported your script – for details see HOWTO: Capture a script using Selenium IDE and import into Cloud Testing.
Log in to the Cloud Testing portal at http://portal.cloudtesting.com/, navigate to the project which contains the script you wish to run.
Running the script
You can either run the test by:
a) clicking on the Run Now icon within the Action section for this script…

b) Once you have selected the script, click on the ‘Run Test’ icon in the menu bar…

c) Select the ‘Run Test’ icon from wherever it is show – in this case in the list of existing results for this test…
When you run a test, you will either be given confirmation that the test has been queued

or if you do not have sufficient testing credits, the following message will be displayed.

Extra credits can simply be applied to your account, which will then allow you to schedule the test.
You can check on the progress of your scheduled tests by viewing the ‘Pending’ tab.
Viewing the results
The result of this and previous tests can be viewed in the Results area. They are listed in date order, but can be sorted by different columns if required.
Selecting an individual result, allows you to drill in and view all the steps that make up that script.
Clicking on either a thumbnail of a screenshot will display the full size captured image in a new window or tab. The HTML for captured steps can be viewed in a new tab or window by clicking on the link.
You can navigate through the results by clicking on the Previous and Next buttons.
