SCTL

This repository contains source code for simple Selenium quota management binary.

Building

We use godep for dependencies management so ensure it's installed before proceeding with next steps. To build the code:

1. Checkout this source tree: $ git clone https://github.com/seleniumkit/sctl.git
2. Download dependencies: $ godep restore
3. Build as usually: $ go build

Running

Generating quota files

Use sctl generate command. When run without arguments it tries to read input.json file in current directory and outputs XML files to the same directory:

$ sctl generate

You may want to adjust input file and output directory like the following:

$ sctl generate --inputFile /path/to/input.json --outputDirectory /path/to/output/directory

If you want to view what will be outputted without actually creating XML files use "dry run" mode:

$ sctl generate --dryRun

Showing quota statistics

Use sctl stat command:

$ sctl stat --inputFile /path/to/input.json

Additionally you can only show information for one quota:

$ sctl stat --inputFile /path/to/input.json --quotaName test-quota

Input file format

See test-data/input.json for full example. In the hosts section of the file we define a set of named host lists with regions:

  "hosts": {
    "cloud": {
      "region-a": {
        "selenium-cloud-a-[1:3].example.com": {
          "port": 4444,
          "count": 1
        }
      },
      "region-b": {
        "selenium-cloud-b-[1:40].example.com": {
          "port": 4445,
          "count": 2
        }
      }
    }
  }

Here cloud is a free-form host group name, region-a is a free-form region (data center) name and selenium-cloud-a-[1:20].example.com is a short notation for a group of hosts:

selenium-cloud-a-1.example.com
selenium-cloud-a-2.example.com
selenium-cloud-a-3.example.com

In quota section we define quota names, browser names, their versions and use names defined in hosts section to refer to a group of hosts:

  "quota": {
    "test-quota": {
      "firefox" : {
        "defaultVersion": "33.0",
        "versions": {
          "33.0": "cloud",
          "42.0": "cloud"
        }
      }
    }
  }

Here test-quota is free-form name of the quota, firefox is the browser name. Finally versions section contains a mapping of browser version to host group name, e.g. firefox 33.0 will correspond to all hosts defined in cloud hosts group. In aliases section we define aliases for quota blocks from quota section. For each defined alias quota contents will be copied to a separate file with new name.

Cloud provider attributes username and password can be included in the input file:

  "hosts": {
    "cloud-provider": {
      "provider-1" : {
        "cloud-provider-1.com": {
          "port": 4444,
          "count": 1,
          "username": "user1",
          "password": "Password1"
        }
      }
    }
  }
