Question 1

What is Mocha?

Accepted Answer

Mocha is one of the most renowned test automation frameworks for JavaScript. It offers powerful test reporting with serial test execution for asynchronous testing, along with immense browser support. The best part is that it runs on Node.js and highlights uncaught exceptions to the appropriate test cases, making it fairly adaptable for budding automation testers.

Question 2

Can I Mark My Test As Pass Or Fail?

Accepted Answer

The LambdaTest Selenium grid doesn’t identify if your test ‘passed’ or ‘failed’. It only identifies whether a test has executed to its last command or whether it has stopped/timed-out before that. The user would have to pass on these parameters to the LambdaTest platform to track these values. You can make use of LambdaTest API or LambdaTest Annotations to push additional metadata and track the pass/fail status of a test.

Question 3

Can I Run Parallel Tests?

Accepted Answer

Yes! One of the key features of the LambdaTest Selenium grid is the ability to run your test cases in parallel. This allows you to execute numerous automation test cases altogether and reduce your test times. With LambdaTest Selenium grid, you can run a single test scenario across different browsers or different test scenarios with the same browser (or any other combinations). The number of parallel test cases you can run depends on the number of concurrent sessions under your opted plan.

Question 4

What Is The Maximum Queuing Capacity?

Accepted Answer

The maximum number of test cases that can be queued = n + 150, where n is the number of concurrent sessions. For example, if your plan includes 10 concurrent sessions, the maximum number of queued test cases would be 10 + 150 = 160. LambdaTest will automatically schedule and execute your queued test cases. We have set a capacity constraint on the number of tests that can be queued to prevent over-exploitation of the platform. Refer to the LambdaTest Queuing Policy for more details.

Question 5

How Many Parallel Sessions Do I Need?

Accepted Answer

The LambdaTest Concurrency Calculator can help you calculate the number of parallel sessions you need for your test coverage. Simply input the necessary details into the calculator, and it will suggest the appropriate number of parallel sessions.

Question 6

What is Selenium Grid?

Accepted Answer

Selenium Grid allows parallel testing against various browsers and OS combinations through a Client-Server model. The server, known as the Hub, interacts with multiple clients to facilitate testing on different environments.

Question 7

What is Selenium WebDriver?

Accepted Answer

Selenium WebDriver allows direct interaction with browsers through your automation test scripts. It supports various programming languages such as Java, PHP, C#, Python, Ruby, Perl, and JavaScript.
