Instructions to build AWS EC2 Linux 2 intance and Install Git/Python/Selenium for Selenium script execution via Jenikins

AWS, Jenkins, Selenium, Python, Git Integration

Open terminal connection to your AWS Linux2 instance, execute the following commands in command line inteface terminal (CMD/Git Bash)

AWS EC2 Linux2 instance (AWS Academy Temporary Sandbox Lab Instance)

💡 see commands for a AWS EC2 Ubuntu instance at:

https://github.com/coddyca/seleniumaws

Initial EC2 Installation on AWS

sudo yum update

sudo yum upgrade

Install Google Chrome Binary for Linux

Note Google Chrome version.

curl https://intoli.com/install-google-chrome.sh | bash

google-chrome --version && which google-chrome

Install chromedriver Binary for Linux

find the chromedriver version at https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html

replace the version in command below with your version

98.0.4758.102

cd /tmp/

wget https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/98.0.4758.102/chromedriver_linux64.zip

unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip

sudo mv chromedriver /usr/bin/chromedriver

chromedriver --version

Install Java 11 (will be used by Jenkins)

sudo amazon-linux-extras install java-openjdk11 -y

sudo yum update

Install Jenkins

sudo wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo \
    https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-stable/jenkins.repo

sudo rpm --import https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-stable/jenkins.io.key

sudo yum upgrade

curl -LO 'https://rpmfind.net/linux/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/d/daemonize-1.7.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm'

sudo rpm -Uvh ./daemonize-1.7.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

sudo yum install jenkins -y

Enable Jenkins and start the service

sudo systemctl enable jenkins

sudo systemctl start jenkins

Check Jenkins status (should be green and Active)

sudo systemctl status jenkins

cat /var/lib/jenkins/config.xml

Jenkins initial admin password

sudo cat /var/lib/jenkins/secrets/initialAdminPassword

install Pyhton 3

sudo yum update

install Pyhton 3 prerequisites

sudo yum install gcc openssl-devel bzip2-devel libffi-devel

install Pyhton 3

sudo yum install python3

Install Pip

sudo yum install python3-pip

Install virtualenv using pip3

sudo pip3 install virtualenv

virtualenv --version

Install Git

sudo yum install git

git --version

---

Make Jenkins & Git integration (using Terminal or CMD)

Generate ssh-keys (public and private)

ssh-keygen

Add Public key to the GitHub > Settings > SSH and GPG keys

To find the public key:

cat /home/ec2-user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Add Private key in Jenkins Project Config

To find the private key:

cat /home/ec2-user/.ssh/id_rsa

Jenkins GitHub Repository Selenium Script Commands

• the sample code below is given for a Jankins project named: PythonSeleniumMoodle
• replace moodle_tests.py in python -m unittest discover --pattern=moodle_tests.py with your tests file name

---

Jenkins Project (), Git Branch name

💡 (important */master by default):

*/main

Jenkins on AWS EC2 Linux Instance >> GitHub Project , Shell Script:

Setup a proper path, call virtualenv dir "venv", and virtualenv command installed in /usr/local/bin

PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/bin
if [ ! -d "venv" ]; then
        virtualenv venv
fi
. venv/bin/activate
pip3 install faker
pip3 install selenium
pip3 install pytest
cd /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/PythonSeleniumMoodle/
python3 -m unittest discover --pattern=moodle_tests.py
deactivate

Jenkins on Localhost >> GitHub Project , Windows batch commands script:

python -m venv ./venv
cd venv/Scripts
call activate.bat
python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install faker
pip install selenium
cd ../..
python -m unittest discover --pattern=moodle_tests.py
deactivate

The same as above with comments:

REM comment lines start with REM (Remark) in Windows Batch File
REM create venv in current directory
python -m venv ./venv
REM go to Scripts directory and activate venv
cd venv/Scripts
call activate.bat
REM install additional libraries
python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install faker
pip install selenium
REM go back
cd ../..
REM run the script
python -m unittest discover --pattern=moodle_tests.py
REM deactivate venv
deactivate

Jenkins on Localhost >> Local Python Selenium Project ✔️, Windows batch commands script:

Navigate to the existing Python project (i.e. python_cctb) venv\Scripts directory, activate virtual environment, cd to project directory, run the scripts via moodle_tests.py file, deactivate virtual environment at the end

cd C:\Automation\Python\python_cctb\venv\Scripts
call activate.bat
cd C:\Automation\Python\python_cctb\practice\moodle
python -m unittest discover --pattern=moodle_tests.py
deactivate

Build your project! 🚀 🤞 🍀 👍
