Setting a test using xvfb + PyCharm + vagrant

问题:

I have this environment:

• PyCharm running on Mac OS X
• Python3.4 environment running on Ubuntu Server in a vagrant instance

I want to be able to run/debug tests using PyCharm. So far I can do it but I recently added selenium to my tests now I need to wrap the python interpreter within xvfb-run remote command. I tried adding a remote external tool but I can't make it work yet. I found this guy but he doesn't explain very well how he made it. Any idea would be very appreciated :-)

Thanks to this answer, I solved without adding an external tool. Steps:

• Installed xvfbwrapper on remote python environment

• Code sample:

  from selenium.webdriver.firefox.webdriver import WebDriver
  from django.contrib.staticfiles.testing import StaticLiveServerTestCase
  from xvfbwrapper import Xvfb
  
  class UITestCase(StaticLiveServerTestCase):
      fixtures = ['data.json']
  
      @classmethod
      def setUpClass(cls):
          cls.vdisplay = Xvfb()
          cls.vdisplay.start()
          cls.selenium = WebDriver()
          cls.selenium.implicitly_wait(3000)
          super(UITestCase, cls).setUpClass()
  
      @classmethod
      def tearDownClass(cls):
          cls.selenium.quit()
          cls.vdisplay.stop()
          super(UITestCase, cls).tearDownClass()
  
      def test_list(self):
          self.selenium.get('%s%s' % (self.live_server_url, '/#/app'))
  
          count = len(self.selenium.find_elements_by_xpath('//*[@id="data"]/tbody/tr'))
          self.assertEqual(count, 2)
  

• No changes needed to your test configuration (assuming it already ran successfully)
