Casper-parallel NPM

Casper-parallel

Run it or import it and call createProject();

Ex:

$ node casper-parallel/generate.js

This code will create a directory called casper-parallel for your tests. Inside it will put some basic files like a casper script to save screenshots, a casper configuration file, a server configuration file for multiple servers, a lib with some helpful functions and a node script called run.js.

The run.js file need a list of directories as parameter and will start a group of tests inside this directories in parallel using subproccess.

Ex: $ ./run.js MyFirstTestCase or $ ./run.js testDir1 testDir2 or $ ./run.js testDir*

This will create a folder for each test directory in your tmp, and will put all logs there.

To run a single test you can use the line: $ casperjs test --cookies-file=/tmp/mycookies.txt testFolder/testname.js --includes=conf.js --verbose --log-level=debug --post=screenshot.js

This will run your test in debug mode and save an image with your's test last screen.

Tips

To keep organization put all your data in the map.js file, never write any xpath or css selector in your test file.
Never write any "if" in your test file
If you have two cases in your test, write two tests
Never write a test with logic, put your logic in the lib.js
Try to keep your tests using a single line using casper.testElement() or casper.testElements()
Write more and smaller tests. They will run in parallel and this will be better and faster.
