jenkins build execution is taking too much time for a selenium job

Question

I was learning jenkins integration with selenium scripts.So I have created a job and executing the build, in the console output I am able to see all the statements which are I am printing and the test was completed also but Progress bar is showing as EXECUTING THE BUILD.

Answer 1

Some basic items I can recommend checking:

• Make sure selenium service is running.
• If you are using selenium as a OS service, then browsers are also opened in background - perhaps they're running but not visible?
• If you want to visually debug selenium, then run selenium from terminal as a logged in user.
• To make sure selenium server is running you can check URL: http://hostname:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=getLogMessages

Answer 2

We have to use quit() instead of close(), because of that it is happening.
