# Running Toaster's browser-based test suite
These tests require Selenium to be installed in your Python environment.
The simplest way to install this is via pip:
pip install selenium
Alternatively, if you used pip to install the libraries required by Toaster,
selenium will already be installed.
To run tests against Chrome:
* Download chromedriver for your host OS from
https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/list
* On *nix systems, put chromedriver on PATH
* On Windows, put chromedriver.exe in the same directory as chrome.exe
To run tests against PhantomJS (headless):
* Download and install PhantomJS:
http://phantomjs.org/download.html
* On *nix systems, put phantomjs on PATH
* Not tested on Windows
Firefox should work without requiring additional software to be installed.
The test case will instantiate a Selenium driver set by the
TOASTER_TESTS_BROWSER environment variable, or Chrome if this is not specified.
Available drivers:
* chrome (default)
* firefox
* ie
* phantomjs
e.g. to run the test suite with phantomjs where you have phantomjs installed
in /home/me/apps/phantomjs:
PATH=/home/me/apps/phantomjs/bin:$PATH TOASTER_TESTS_BROWSER=phantomjs manage.py test tests.browser
