Installation

Prerequisites

  • JDK version 1.8 or higher
  • If you plan to run Wetator tests from ant than you additionally need Apache Ant version 1.10.12 or newer.
  • a text editor to edit the test scripts (*.wett files)

Command Line Version

Installation of the command line version

  • Download the latest stable version.
  • Create a new directory and unzip the file into it (preserve subdirectories).
  • Open a command window and go to your Wetator directory.
  • If under Windows start
    wetator.bat sample.wett
  • On Unix you have to make the file wetator.sh executable first; then run
    wetator.sh sample.wett
  • You see some message like
    Starting Wetator
    java -cp ".:./lib/*:" org.wetator.Wetator sample.wet
    Wetator 2.2.0
      using HtmlUnit version 2.61.0
      Config:     'wet/wetator.config'
      OutputDir:  'wet/logs'
      Templates:  'wet/xsl/run_report.xsl'
      TestFiles:  'sample.wet' (wet/sample.wet)

  • Inside the output dir (usually the subdir log) you can find the result overview. Simple open the file logs/run_report.xsl.html with your browser.
  • Thats all - you are ready now to start writing your first test script.

Run the simple wetator test selector ui

If you start the wetator without providing a specific test file, a small file dialog appears and let you choose the test scripts you like to run.

For more details about the command line interface see Command-Line Options.

To run your tests as ant task see Ant Task.
