Running Jubula on a windows Jenkins agent requires a display plugin? [message #1142870]

Hi all,

I have set up Jubula to run on a windows Jenkins agent. If I build the Jubula test job on Jenkins with a remote desktop connection opened to the windows Jenkins agent (a virtual machine), it would build fine. But if I close the remote desktop connection and try to build the Jubula test job, it would fail to perform any test step on GUI widget. How should I fix this?

The following is a snippet of the console output:

C:\Program Files\jubula_7.1.00055\jubula>testexec.exe -c "C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\workspace\JUDB_Jubula_tests\com.teradata.judb.jubula.tests\judb_feature_launcher.xml"

As you can see, it ends up with hitting the default event handler for all GUI test steps.

Any idea would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot

I found this link, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10177708/jenkins-on-windows-and-gui-tests-without-rdc
But the solution is pretty vague...

Hi,

There's an article on the portal with some information on setting up a test machine:
http://testing.bredex.de/test-machine-setup.html

(you'll need to login to read it).

Hope that helps!
Alex

[For GUI testing: In order to run GUI tests, your environment does have to have a GUI!]

Does that mean I will have to have a remote desktop connection open at all times in order to run tests? My test machine is currently on a windows 7 vm and jenkins server is on linux. I have already enabled autologon. How should I get this to work without using a remote desktop connection?

Here is what we are doing (we are using Hudson, Jenkins should be reasonable similar):

The test machine does an auto login (this is possible for Windows, Linux and OSX, no idea for other systems).
As part of the login process (this is very system dependent) it downloads the Hudson slave jar and connects to the Hudson master as a slave node. This ensures that the Hudson slave has a display to run the GUI tests.
The Hudson jobs starts the necessary Jubula agents (minimum is autagent, we also run the testexec on the slaves) on the test slave.

This has been working for us for several years now.
