## Prerequisites
635

7-
1. Install pip and python.
36+
Before you can start performing **Python** automation testing with **Selenium**, you would need to:
837

9-
```
10-
sudo apt install python-pip
11-
sudo apt install python
12-
```
38+
* Install the latest Python build from the [official website](https://www.python.org/downloads/). We recommend using the latest version.
39+
* Make sure **pip** is installed in your system. You can install **pip** from [here](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/).
40+
* Download the latest **Selenium Client** and its **WebDriver bindings** from the [official website](https://www.selenium.dev/downloads/). Latest versions of **Selenium Client** and **WebDriver** are ideal for running your automation script on LambdaTest Selenium cloud grid.
41+
42+
### Installing Selenium Dependencies And Tutorial Repo
1343

14-
2. The recommended way to run your tests would be in virtualenv. It will isolate the build from other setups you may have running and ensure that the tests run with the specified versions of the modules specified in the requirements.txt file.
44+
**Step 1:** Clone the LambdaTest’s python-selenium-sample repository and navigate to the code directory as shown below:
1545

46+
```bash
47+
git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/python-selenium-sample
48+
cd python-selenium-sample
1649
```
17-
pip install virtualenv
50+
51+
**Step 2:** Download the driver from the link, or you can use **pip** to install it.
52+
```bash
53+
pip install selenium
54+
export PYTHONWARNINGS="ignore:Unverified HTTPS request" //Disable ssl warning
1855
```
1956

20-
## Steps to Run your First Test
57+
### Setting Up Your Authentication
2158

22-
Step 1. Clone the Python-Selenium-Sample Repository.
59+
Make sure you have your LambdaTest credentials with you to run test automation scripts. You can get these credentials from the [LambdaTest Automation Dashboard](https://automation.lambdatest.com/build) or by your [LambdaTest Profile](https://accounts.lambdatest.com/login).
2360

24-
```
25-
git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/python-selenium-sample
26-
```
61+
**Step 2:** Set LambdaTest **Username** and **Access Key** in environment variables.
2762

28-
Step 2. Next we create and Activate the virtual environment in the Python-Selenium-Sample folder.
63+
* For **Linux/macOS**:
64+
65+
```bash
66+
export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
67+
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
68+
```
69+
* For **Windows**:
70+
```bash
71+
set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
72+
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
73+
```
2974

30-
```
31-
virtualenv venv
32-
source venv/bin/activate
33-
```
75+
## Run Your First Test
3476

35-
Step 3. Then install required packages.
77+
>**Test Scenario**: The [lambdatest.py](https://github.com/LambdaTest/python-selenium-sample/blob/master/lambdatest.py) sample script tests a simple to-do application with basic functionalities like mark items as done, add items in a list, calculate total pending items etc.
3678
37-
```
38-
pip install -r requirements.txt
39-
```
79+
### Configuration Of Your Test Capabilities
4080

41-
Step 4. Inside Python-Selenium-Sample folder, export the Lambda-test Credentials. You can get these from your automation dashboard.
81+
**Step 4:** In the python script, you need to update your test capabilities. In this code, we are passing browser, browser version, and operating system information, along with LambdaTest Selenium grid capabilities via capabilities object.
4282

43-
<p align="center">
44-
<b>For Linux/macOS:</b>
45-
83+
The capabilities object in the above code are defined as:
84+
85+
```python
86+
capabilities = {
87+
"build": "your build name",
88+
"name": "your test name",
89+
"platformName": "Windows 10"
90+
"browserName": "Chrome",
91+
"browserVersion": "latest",
92+
}
4693
```
47-
export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
48-
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
94+
You can generate capabilities for your test requirements with the help of our inbuilt [Desired Capability Generator](https://www.lambdatest.com/capabilities-generator/).
95+
96+
### Executing The Test
97+
98+
**Step 5:** You would need to execute the below command in your terminal/cmd.
99+
100+
```bash
101+
python google-search-lambdatest.py
49102
```
103+
Your test results would be displayed on the test console (or command-line interface if you are using terminal/cmd) and on LambdaTest automation dashboard.

## Testing Locally Hosted Or Privately Hosted Projects
107+
108+
You can test your locally hosted or privately hosted projects with LambdaTest Selenium grid using LambdaTest Tunnel. All you would have to do is set up an SSH tunnel using tunnel and pass toggle `tunnel = True` via desired capabilities. LambdaTest Tunnel establishes a secure SSH protocol based tunnel that allows you in testing your locally hosted or privately hosted pages, even before they are live.
109+
110+
Refer our [LambdaTest Tunnel documentation](https://www.lambdatest.com/support/docs/testing-locally-hosted-pages/) for more information.
111+
112+
Here’s how you can establish LambdaTest Tunnel.
113+
114+
Download the binary file of:
115+
* [LambdaTest Tunnel for Windows](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/windows/64bit/LT_Windows.zip)
116+
* [LambdaTest Tunnel for macOS](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/mac/64bit/LT_Mac.zip)
117+
* [LambdaTest Tunnel for Linux](https://downloads.lambdatest.com/tunnel/v3/linux/64bit/LT_Linux.zip)
118+
119+
Open command prompt and navigate to the binary folder.
120+
121+
Run the following command:
122+
123+
```bash
124+
LT -user {user’s login email} -key {user’s access key}
54125
```
55-
set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
56-
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR ACCESS KEY"
126+
So if your user name is lambdatest@example.com and key is 123456, the command would be:
127+
128+
```bash
129+
LT -user lambdatest@example.com -key 123456
57130
```
131+
Once you are able to connect **LambdaTest Tunnel** successfully, you would just have to pass on tunnel capabilities in the code shown below :
132+
133+
**Tunnel Capability**
58134

59-
Step 5. To run your first test.
60135
```
61-
python lambdatest.py
136+
"tunnel" : true
62137
```
