In jenkins CI-CD jobs, the linux machines are available to trigger our automation code. So if our automation code consists of selenium library and other libraries, the job will perform without errors and automation report will be generated.
But one issue arises here, when we do the automation for desktop based application using white library. The white library interacts with desktop elements and not capable of running those automation code in the linux agents which are present in the jenkins. There is a challenge to add windows agent in the jenkins and complex
solution - get a dedicated windows based virtual machine which will do the job for you, executing a desktop based automation without fail. The linux agent will not be required for the same and it wont work anyhow.
setup up the application in the Virtual machine in prior for which you have written a automation code. Add the config files in the jenkins file and give the correct project and absolute file path of the project.
Once you trigger the freestyle job pipeline, it will start the execution in the dedicated machine.
Set the env variables in the jenkins files like username, password and the required fields.
Real challenges. Real solutions. Real talk.
