How can I execute Selenide in Chrome using ChromeDriver

I started using selenide (selenium wrapper api) and must say its a great tool but my only issue is its lack of documentation or usage examples online yet.

Any idea how to run your application coded in selenide in google-Chrome. I am using eclipse as IDE. I have added an environment variable "browser" with value chrome in my run configuration but when I run it picks up firefox.

My stack is JDBC Java Selenide

You need to tell Selenide what browser to use. That can be done using Configuration properties:

import com.codeborne.selenide.Configuration;

public class Tests {

@Before
public void setBrowser() {
    Configuration.browser = "chrome";
}

Remember: your webdriver should be placed on the standard path. For unix/linux it is: /usr/local/bin; If your webdriver is located on a different path or renamed -- you need to set a system property with right path to the webdriver. For example:

Windows:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Program files\\chromedriver.exe");

Linux\Unix:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","/usr/share/chromedriver");

Make sure that your unix / linux chromedriver is executable. After this, you should have a fully working example (in my case, chromedriver is renamed and has version information):

import com.codeborne.selenide.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.junit.*;

import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.$;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.open;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.WebDriverRunner.getWebDriver;

public class TestClass {
    @Before
    public void setBrowser(){
        Configuration.browser = "chrome";
        Configuration.browserSize = "1920x1080";
        Configuration.holdBrowserOpen = true;
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/usr/local/bin/chromedriver_2.33");
    }

    @Test
    public void gotoGoogle(){
        open("https://www.google.com");

        WebElement searchBox = $(By.xpath("//input[@id='lst-ib']"));
        $(searchBox).shouldBe(Condition.visible).setValue("How can I execute Selenide in Chrome using ChromeDriver").pressEnter();

        WebElement firstResultLink = $(By.xpath("(//div[@class='rc']//a)[1]"));
        $(firstResultLink).click();

        System.out.println(getWebDriver().getCurrentUrl());
    }
}

You can use System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "chrome"); for running in the chrome browser. If the same test you need to perform in safari just change the chrome to safari. Eg:

System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "safari"); open("http://idemo.bspb.ru/");

Another way is to use this command line switch with Maven:

mvn test -P chrome

It requires the Maven profiles in the pom.xml file such as are seen here:

Try this 

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");
System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "Chrome");
open("http://google.com");

You can find some documentation here.

The below code will help you launch the Chrome Browser with Selenide, and not with the selenium. It means you don't have to issue a close or quit command at the end of the iteration. 

import static com.codeborne.selenide.CollectionCondition.size;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Condition.text;
import static com.codeborne.selenide.Selenide.*;
import org.junit.Rule;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import com.codeborne.selenide.junit.ScreenShooter;

public class SimpleDateFormatClass {

@Rule
public ScreenShooter takeScreenshotSelenide = ScreenShooter.failedTests().succeededTests();

@Test
public void checkGoogleSearchResultsReturnValidResultNumberAndText() {
    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/usr/bin/chromedriver_2");
    //Doesn't matter chrome or Chrome as this is case insensitive.
    System.setProperty("selenide.browser", "Chrome");
    open("http://google.com");
    $(By.name("q")).setValue("Selenide").pressEnter();

    // assure there are 10 results in the page
    // static import shortcut, place the cursor on the method and press
    // ctrl+shift+m/ cmd+shift+m
    // $ -> driver.findElement, $$ -> driver.findElements
    $$(".iris li.g").shouldHave(size(10));
    $(".iris li.g").shouldHave(text("Selenide World!"));
}

}

This should help you even if you are running from the command prompt/ terminal, but if you want to exclusively pass on the Chrome from cmd you can use the "browser" parameter as below

-Dselenide.browser=chrome
