java - How do run each browserdriver based on enum list value? -

hi using code found in first answer on page: click here

i able run , choose browser changing environment used_driver line number of different browsers.

i wandering if possible run test runs through each case once before finishing, i.e. has been tested on each of selected browsers once have had go @ using for, , if havnt been successful. please bare me new java , oo. thanks.

example test

driver.get("calc.php"); driver.findelement(by.name("firstnumber")).sendkeys("2");     thread.sleep(500);     driver.findelement(by.name("secondnumber")).sendkeys("2");     thread.sleep(500);     driver.findelement(by.name("calculate")).click();     thread.sleep(500);     driver.findelement(by.name("save")).click();     thread.sleep(500); 

i believe asking run single test multiple times, once each browser.

there different ways can this...i'll start simplest (but hardest maintain in future, make sure understand each choice before choosing):

solution 1: simplest way put loop around test. have list of different webdrivers tests run on. this:

webdriver[] drivers = new webdriver[]{firefoxdriver, chromedriver}; (webdriver driver:drivers){    ...test goes here..... } 

the problem method each test run have have loop, , create own drivers.

solution 2: have central method call each of tests. this:

public void runtests(){    ...create drivers here (and array)...    (webdriver driver: drivers){       runfirsttest(driver);       runsecondtest(driver);    } }  public void runfirsttest(driver){     ...code using driver goes here.... } 

this solves problem of having loop , creating driver instances in every test, now, whenever write new test, have add loop.

solution 3: solution exists, using testing framework. 2 popular testng , junit. i'm going assume of tests in same class, if have multiple classes, want have 1 class have @dataprovider

@dataprovider(name = "drivers") public providedrivers(){    ...create drivers here...    return new object[][]{{firefoxdriver},{chromedriver},....}; }  @test(dataprovider = "drivers") public runtest(webdriver driver){    ...do stuff driver here... } 

this solution run every method has @test(dataprovider = "...") once every driver pass in. more information here
