This is a set of R Bindings for Selenium 2.0 Remote WebDriver, which you can download from http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html. This binding will not work with the 1.0 version of Selenium.


## Install 

To install `RSelenium` from CRAN, run:

```R
install.packages("RSelenium")
```

To install the development version from GitHub, run:

```R
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ropensci/RSelenium")
```

To get started using `RSelenium` you can look at the introduction vignette located in `/doc/basics.html` once `RSelenium` is installed or run

```R
vignette("basics", package = "RSelenium")
```

or the basic vignette can be viewed [here](http://docs.ropensci.org/RSelenium/articles/basics.html).

There is a second vignette dealing with running RSelenium on different browsers/OS locally and remotely which can be viewed at [Driving OS/Browsers Local and Remote](http://docs.ropensci.org/RSelenium/articles/saucelabs.html). Finally, you can read all about running a headless browser or running a normal browser on a headless server at [Headless Browsing](http://docs.ropensci.org/RSelenium/articles/headless.html).

## Test Shiny Apps

Use `RSelenium` to test your Shiny Apps. Read the introductory tutorial [here](http://docs.ropensci.org/RSelenium/articles/shinytesting.html).


## Use [Sauce Labs](https://saucelabs.com/) and [BrowserStack](https://www.browserstack.com/)

### Sauce Labs

```R
user <- "rselenium0"
pass <- "*******************************"
port <- 80
ip <- paste0(user, ':', pass, "@ondemand.saucelabs.com")
browser <- "firefox"
version <- "25"
platform <- "OS X 10.9"
extraCapabilities <- list(
  name = "Test RSelenium",
  username = user,
  accessKey = pass
)

remDr <- remoteDriver$new(
  remoteServerAddr = ip,
  port = port,
  browserName = browser,
  version = version,
  platform = platform,
  extraCapabilities = extraCapabilities
)
```

### BrowserStack

```R
user <- "johnharrison" 
pass <- "*******************"
port <- 80
ip <- paste0(user, ':', pass, "@hub.browserstack.com")
extraCapabilities <- list(
  "browser" = "IE",
  "browser_version" = "7.0",
  "os" = "Windows",
  "os_version" = "XP",
  "browserstack.debug" = "true"
)

remDr <- remoteDriver$new(
  remoteServerAddr = ip,
  port = port,
  extraCapabilities = extraCapabilities
)
```


## Related Work

* [seleniumPipes](https://github.com/johndharrison/seleniumPipes): A lightweight implementation of the w3c webdriver specification. It has been built utilising `xml2`, `httr` and `magrittr` so provides an alternative for users who are familiar with piping.
* [webdriver](https://github.com/rstudio/webdriver): A client for the 'WebDriver API'. It allows driving a (probably headless) web browser, and can be used to test web applications, including `Shiny` apps. In theory it works with any 'WebDriver' implementation, but it was only tested with 'PhantomJS'.
* [rwebdriver](https://github.com/crubba/Rwebdriver): R bindings to the Webdriver API
* [rdom](https://github.com/cpsievert/rdom): Render and parse the DOM from R via phantomjs.
