Options for installing and running Testlum

Installation:

1. You need to create an account on the Testlum website https://testlum.com/sign-up
2. Download a necessary build for your OS from https://testlum.com/account/builds

3. Open the downloaded Testlum on the laptop (if necessary, give access in System Settings to open an app that was downloaded not from the official app store).
4. Login with your credentials from the Testlum website.
5. Create a new project (it’s recommended to use JDK 17+). If you want to have an example of the scenario, mark the checkbox "Add sample code". It includes an example of test resources containing the required folder structure, a configuration file with minimal settings, a few simple test scenarios, and other needed data (e.g., db patches, web element locators, etc.).

6. That’s all. Now you can run the first test scenarios by clicking the Run button:

Run from CLI

1. If Testlum isn’t opened, open a terminal on the laptop and navigate to the folder where the Testlum Project is located.

cd /Users/{your-user}/TestlumProjects/{project-name}

2. Enter the following command in the terminal:

Java -jar TestlumRunner.jar -c=global-config.xml -p=/Users/{your-user}/TestlumProjects/{project-name}/RESOURCES_EXAMPLE

If Testlum is opened, open a terminal in Testlum and enter the following command:

Java -jar TestlumRunner.jar -c=global-config.xml -p=/Users/{your-user}/TestlumProjects/{project-name}/RESOURCES_EXAMPLE

(Please note that you need to input your values for the filenames and the absolute path).
