[HELP] Running paralell Browserstack tests?

[NimMM90]

We would like to add parallel Browserstack tests to our current project, but I am somewhat lost on how I would fit the json setup as suggested by the Browserstack wiki into the .properties file

  "environments": [{
    "browser": "chrome"
  },{
    "browser": "firefox"
  },{
    "browser": "safari"
  },{
    "browser": "internet explorer"
  }]

Is there a way to cleanly implement this in the webdriver.properties file?

Hi @WemansG90, apologies for late reply.

The following may help you with your problem:

#207

You might want to create separate profiles for each browser (with dedicated webdriver.properties) and then execute given test suite with the selected profile.
When you will point multiple executions to a Selenium Grid (that is used under the hood by cloud providers like Browsertack), their infrastructure will simply handle it on their own.
