Hi @Gaura87. In the task description above, There are 2 sub-tasks and each sub-tasks has corresponding Microtasks. You can jump on any of the sub-tasks you're most comfortable with and ask questions when stuck

okay ! Thanks @Gbahdeyboh

Hi @Gaura87, you should start with the micro-tasks from the task description.

Micro tasks:

• T248016: Micro-task: Run Selenium tests on your machine
• T248232: Micro-task: Make a trivial change to tests/selenium/README.md file of mediawiki/core repository
• T248220: Micro-task: Create a simple test using Cypress
• T248219: Micro-task: Create a simple test using Puppeteer

okay thanks @zeljkofilipin

Hi @Jpita, I'd love to send you a DM on zulip. Do you mind sharing your username/name?

(Note that private messages don't scale and don't help others.)

@Jpita @zeljkofilipin just a query, we will be evaluating both Puppeteer and Cypress as replacements right? I am asking this because based off of what I could understand from documentation, Cypress does not support Firefox

Cypress now supports firefox anyway

Can you guide me to a resource for this? It said their support for Firefox browsers is in beta

The official docs are very well done https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/cross-browser-testing.html

@Jpita @zeljkofilipin. Can you kindly point me to a place where I can view a list of all projects that makes use of WebdriverIO as it's browser automation framework?

Not all mentors are using zulip yet. Also, as @Aklapper said, it's better to ask questions in public.

This page has all repositories that I'm aware of (in Wikimedia context): https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Selenium/Reference/Example_Code

@zeljkofilipin @Jpita are we evaluating for all the repos that use WebDriverIO or just mediawiki/core and then use that evaluation as the basis of remainder of front end repos?

@AlQaholic007 I would suggest rewriting tests in cypress/puppeteer for at least mediawiki/core and a few other repositories, so we could then estimate the effort of moving all repositories to the alternative.

Yes i had the same idea in mind. Based on evaluations we can then migrate it to other repos using WebdriverIO

Is everything in this project task planned for Google-Summer-of-Code (2020) completed? If yes, please consider closing this task as resolved. If bits and pieces are remaining, you could consider creating a new task and moving them there.

Hello, myself, Gaurav Kumawat, a 2nd-year student at IIT(BHU), Varanasi.
Can I contribute to this project? Is the project still active?

@Gaurav_436310: Hi, the upper left corner says Closed, Resolved.
