SilverStripe Australia testing extensions module

Adds several helpers to the base SilverStripe testing framework to simplify hooking the testing process into CI servers such as Jenkins, by parameterising several configuration options.

Additionally, the module provides the SsauSeleniumTestCase which provides a simpler API for writing Selenium powered tests.

Selenium

To run just the selenium tests, a commandline such as

php framework/cli-script.php dev/tests/module/ssautesting \ 
  flush=1 build=1 selenium_host=127.0.0.1 browser=firefox \
  test_url=http://my.silverstripe.site/ test_type=SsauSeleniumTestCase SkipTests=ssauseleniumtestcase \
  admin_user=admin admin_pass=admin

Note: The trailing slash in the URL is important!

should get you going. Note that you will need to have selenium server running for this to work. A command such as the following will start selenium server in a virtual framebuffer, meaning the windows don't launch all over your screen!

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/xvfb-run -e /var/log/selenium/xvfb-selenium.log -n 10 \
  -s "-screen 10 1024x768x8" \
  java -jar /home/path/to/programs/selenium-server-standalone-2.39.0.jar  \
  -port 4444 -log /var/log/selenium/server.log 

However it can be useful to run the selenium server directly from the commandline to debug why a test has failed.
