How to record and play back Selenium IDE scripts

  1. Record the script(s) with Selenium IDE
    1. Be sure to record relative, not absolute paths (i.e. /en-US/firefox/some/AMO/url/, rather than https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/some/AMO/url
  2. Download and install Selenium RC -- literally just unzip it into its own folder
  3. From the command line, issue: java -jar selenium-server.jar -htmlSuite "*firefox" "https://preview.addons.mozilla.org" [1 -- just a footnote, don't enter me!] "/Users/stephend/Desktop/selenium-remote-control-1.0-SNAPSHOT/htmlSuite/testSuite.html" "/Users/stephend/Desktop/results.html" (substituting, of course, the folder name of your RC version and path/to/tests and path/to/results.html)


[1] This is the base URL, and what your test scripts will key off of
