Please edit this information in your question, as it's very difficult to read from comments. Also, is using a build tool like Maven an option or will you want a purely manual dependency management solution? — t0mppa

You can use maven selenium plugin to run all the integration test by using selenium

In pom.xml, add this dependency

<dependency>
  <groupid>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupid>
  <artifactid>selenium-java</artifactid>
  <version>2.25.0</version>
</dependency>

And in commandline, execute the test via maven

mvn clean test -Dwebdriver.base.url=http://www.example.com

Hi Dang.When I compile the files again I get this error: --- maven-compiler-plugin:2.0.2:testCompile (default-testCompile) @ selenium_mvn_drivermile --- [INFO] No sources to compile [INFO] [INFO] --- maven-surefire-plugin:2.12.4:test (default-test) @ selenium_mvn_drivermile --- [INFO] No tests to run. Please note:- The build is successful. Please guide as what should I do.This is strange.

Hi @Dishant, I think you might not follow the maven structure, please access to maven home page for more information. - Here is one example, hopefully it could help you to investigate your issue github-example-link - To run the selenium test: mvn clean install -DbaseUrl=localhost:9090/spring-selenium-integration-test

You can run your scripts thru command prompt using Apache Ant. It uses build.xml which runs your testng.xml. Just the difference is that you run it from command prompt and not from eclipse or any other IDE. You can find more info on Apache Ant & build.xml from - http://ant.apache.org/
