Unhandled Error in Selenium with Laravel 5

Question

I am using Selenium with PHPUnit and Laracast integrated library to work with.

The thing is that it appears a weird error when I run the tests and I haven't found it anywhere.

The code is the following:

<?php

use Laracasts\Integrated\Extensions\Selenium as SeleniumTestCase;
use Laracasts\Integrated\Services\Laravel\Application as Laravel;
use App\Models\User;
use App\Models\App;
use App\Models\Role;

class SeleniumTests extends SeleniumTestCase
{

    protected $baseUrl = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub';

    use Laravel;

    /**
    *
    * Creates a user with email $email and password $password
    *
    * @param string $email    Email of the user
    * @param string $password Password of the user
    *
    * @return User
    */
    private function createAdminUser($email, $password)
    {
        $user = new User;
        $user->name = rand(1000000000, 999999999999)." user ".rand(1000000000, 999999999999);
        $user->email = $email;
        $user->password = \Hash::make($password);
        $user->save();

        $adminRole = Role::where('name', 'admin')->first();

        $user->attachRole($adminRole);

        return \App\Models\User::find($user->id);
    }

    /**
    * @test
    * Test a login of a registered user
    *
    * @return void
    */
    public function testLoginOK()
    {
        $email = '[email protected]';
        $password = 'us3rP4ssW0rd';

        $this->createAdminUser($email, $password);

        $this->visit('auth/login')
             ->type($email, 'email')
             ->type($password, 'password')
             ->andSnap()
             ->press('Continue')
             ->seePageIs('dashboard');
    }

And the error I am receiving is:

{
  "sessionId": null,
  "status": 13,
  "state": "unhandled error",
  "value": {
    "message": "GET \/auth\/login\nBuild info: version: '2.48.1', revision: 'd80083d', time: '2015-10-08 21:11:00'\nSystem info: host: 'homestead', ip: '127.0.1.1', os.name: 'Linux', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '3.13.0-24-generic', java.version: '1.7.0_79'\nDriver info: driver.version: unknown",

      null,
      null,
      null,

      null,
      null
    ]
  },
  "class": "org.openqa.selenium.remote.Response",
  "hCode": 1122669771
}

As extra info: If I put protected $baseUrl = 'http://{my_development_url}'; instead of protected $baseUrl = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub'; everything works as expected, but I need the code to work on Scrutinizer, so I can't do it like that.

If instead of accessing auth/login I access / it appears a dashboard with buttons, so I guess Selenium is working.

Does anyone have a clue about what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Well, after a lot of time and learning I'll explain a little more my case and I'll get to the conclusions.

I am using Laravel 5 with Selenium. Since I am using selenium and not Laravel's IntegratedTests, I had to setup a test domain. I was using nginx, so I changed my .env file and created a new domain. Since I am developing plenty of projects in the same Homestead, I couldn't use the default localhost for that.

So, conclusions:

I had to create another domain in my nginx to test it
I had to change my .env file with the testing database
I had to setup Selenium to work headless by doing:
- sudo apt-get install xvfb firefox
- DISPLAY=:0 xvfb-run --server-args="-screen 0, 2560x2560x24" java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.48.1.jar

After that you'll be able to run your tests properly

It looks like your solution is an environment type. You're going to want to use the env() helper method here.

public function __construct()
{
    $this->baseUrl = env('TEST_BASEURL', 'http://{my_development_url}');
}

Then simply add this line to your .env:

TEST_BASEURL=http://localhost:4444/wd/hub

Here's where to find additional docs: http://laravel.com/docs/master/#environment-configuration.

The thing is that I need to configure the whole thing in Scrutinizer, right? Set the host, configure a nginx server... right?

You can just have the default details work in scrutinizer.
