Prerequisites

Before you start performing C# automation testing with Selenium using xUnit, you need to:

  • Download and install Selenium WebDriver from its official website.
  • Ensure you have the latest version of C#.
  • .NET framework for guidelines while developing a range of applications using C#.
  • Download Selenium WebDriver Language Binding for C# and extract them to the appropriate folder. Require a .NET Core SDK of 8.0 or greater version.

Installing Selenium Dependencies And Tutorial Repo

Step 1: Clone the LambdaTest CSharp-xUnit-Selenium GitHub repository and navigate to the code directory:

git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/CSharp-xUnit-Selenium
cd CSharp-xUnit-Selenium

Setting up Your Authentication

Ensure you have your LambdaTest credentials to run C# automation scripts. Obtain these credentials from the LambdaTest Automation Dashboard or your LambdaTest Profile.

Step 2: Set your LambdaTest Username and Access Key in environment variables.

For Linux/macOS:

export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME" 
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"

For Windows:

set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"

Run Your First Test

Test Scenario: Check out the sample SingleTest.cs file. This xUnit Selenium script tests a sample to-do list app by marking a couple of items as done, adding a new item to the list, and finally displaying the count of pending items as output.

Step 3: Navigate to config.json using VSCode. Replace this code in the config.json file in your project.

Configuration of Your Test Capabilities

Step 4: In the config, update your test capabilities. We are passing browser, browser version, and operating system information, along with LambdaTest Selenium grid capabilities via the capabilities object.

Example capabilities object:

{
  "server": "hub.lambdatest.com",
  "user": "LT_USERNAME",
  "key": "LT_ACCESS_KEY",

  "capabilities": {
    "lt:options": {
      "buildName": "xunit build",
      "sessionName": "lambdatest xunit sample test",
      "visual": "true",
      "plugin": "xunit:sample"
    }
  },

  "environments": [
    {
      "browserName": "chrome"
    },
    {
      "browserName": "firefox"
    },
    {
      "browserName": "safari"
    }
  ],

  "TunnelOptions": {
    "tunnel": false
  }
}

Note: Generate capabilities for your test requirements with the help of the Desired Capability Generator.

Executing the Test

Step 5: Build the solution in Visual Studio.

Step 6: Run the

tests from the Test Explorer in Visual Studio.

Executing in Linux/macOS

  • Clean and rebuild the project.
dotnet clean
  • Execute Single Test
dotnet test --filter "profile=single"

Running Your Parallel Tests Using xUnit Testing Framework

Executing Parallel tests in Windows

Run all tests from the Test Explorer in Visual Studio for parallel execution.

Executing parallel tests in Linux/MacOS

dotnet test --filter "profile=parallel"

Testing Locally Hosted Or Privately Hosted Projects

For testing locally hosted or privately hosted projects with LambdaTest Selenium grid using LambdaTest Tunnel, follow the LambdaTest Tunnel documentation.

Download the LambdaTest Tunnel binary for your OS and run the following command:

LT -user {user’s login email} -key {user’s access key}

Tunnel Capability

"lt:options": {
      "buildName": "xunit build",
      "sessionName": "lambdatest xunit sample test",
      "visual": "true",
      "plugin": "xunit:sample",
      "tunnel": "true"
    }
