This is an example of using Browserstack in conjunction with Geb/Spock tests as part of a gradle build.
It works out of the box with Chrome, Edge, and Firefox on Windows 10, and can be readily configured to support many more
browsers (even mobile devices) by adjusting the configuration in src/test/resources/GebConfig.groovy.
It works equally well on Windows, Mac, and Linux hosts since tests run remotely, and it works well within an Openshift or Jenkins pipeline.
The following commands will launch the example tests with the individual browsers:
./gradlew remoteFirefoxTest
./gradlew remoteChromeTest
./gradlew remoteEdgeTest
Test results will be available in your Browserstack Automate console and will include videos and detailed logs. JUnit test results are also generated for consumption by your test reporter of choice.
Replace ./gradlew with gradlew.bat in the above examples if you're on Windows.
Your Geb specs must extend from the special base class in listeners.BrowserStackReportingSpec, a subclass of GebSpec that provides support for reporting status information via the Browserstack API.
Two environment variables MUST be supplied for the tests to execute. They can be supplied via the .env file also.
BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME and BROWSERSTACK_TOKEN.
Optional configuration parameters are identified in build.gradle and GebConfig.groovy with the annotation //@changeme.
