To run multiple test scripts with Selenium IDE Runner

To run multiple test scripts with Selenium IDE Runner, you should list the test scripts as separate command-line arguments instead of specifying them in a configuration file.

Here's how you can run multiple test scripts using Selenium IDE Runner from the command line:

selenium-side-runner test1.side test2.side test3.side

In this command, replace `test1.side`, `test2.side`, and `test3.side` with the actual filenames of your Selenium IDE test scripts. Simply list the test scripts one after the other on the command line.

Each test script will be executed sequentially in the order you specify in the command.

If you encounter any issues with the Selenium IDE Runner command, please ensure that you have the runner installed and that your test script files are in the correct directory and have the correct file extensions (usually `.side`). Also, make sure you have a compatible browser and Selenium WebDriver set up.

Selenium Side Runner: Execute the selenium script using CLI

 Selenium-Side Runner is a command-line tool that allows you to run Selenium IDE test cases in different browsers and environments. Selenium IDE is a browser automation tool that records and plays back user interactions with a web application. Selenium-Side Runner extends its functionality by enabling you to execute these recorded test cases outside of the Selenium IDE interface.

Here's an example of how to use Selenium-Side Runner:

1. Install Selenium-Side Runner:

   You can install Selenium-Side Runner globally using npm (Node Package Manager) if you haven't already:

   ```

   npm install -g selenium-side-runner

   ```

2. Create a Selenium IDE Test Case:

   Use Selenium IDE to record a test case and save it as a .side file. You can install Selenium IDE as a browser extension or use the standalone version.

3. Run Selenium-Side Runner:

   Open your terminal and navigate to the directory where your .side test case file is located. Then, use the following command to run the test case:

   ```

   selenium-side-runner your-test-case.side

   ```

   Replace `your-test-case.side` with the name of your .side file.

4. Specify Browser and Configuration:

   By default, Selenium-Side Runner uses the Firefox browser. If you want to use a different browser or specify other configurations, you can use command-line options. For example, to run the test case in Chrome:

   ```

   selenium-side-runner --browser chrome your-test-case.side

   ```

   You can explore other options, such as specifying the base URL, setting a custom timeout, and more in the official Selenium-Side Runner documentation.

5. View Test Results:

   Selenium-Side Runner will execute your test case and display the results in the terminal. You'll see information about which tests passed or failed, along with any error messages.

Here's a simple example of a Selenium IDE test case (.side file) that opens a website and verifies the page title:

```json

{

  "type": "test",

  "name": "Open and Verify Page",

  "commands": [

    {

      "command": "open",

      "target": "https://example.com",

      "value": ""

    },

    {

      "command": "assertTitle",

      "target": "Example Domain",

      "value": ""

    }

  ]

}

```

After creating this test case, you can run it using Selenium-Side Runner as described earlier.

Selenium-Side Runner is a powerful tool for automating web testing and can be integrated into your continuous integration (CI) pipelines to ensure that your web application functions correctly across different browsers and environments.
