Maven Configuration (pom.xml)

This project uses Maven to manage dependencies and build configuration for Gauge-based Selenium tests running on the Testinium platform.The pom.xml includes:

Gauge Java runner for executing .spec files

Selenium 4 for browser automation

Testinium Selenium 4 driver for Testinium Grid integration

Supporting libraries (Lombok, SLF4J)

Testinium Maven Repository

The Testinium Maven repository is required to resolve Testinium-specific artifacts:

https://mvn.testinium.com/repository/public/

This repository is defined under both repositories and distributionManagement.

Key Dependencies

Gauge (Java Runner)

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.thoughtworks.gauge</groupId>
  <artifactId>gauge-java</artifactId>
  <version>${gauge.version}</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Provides the Gauge Java runtime and step-definition support required to execute Gauge specifications.

Selenium 4

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
  <artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
  <version>${selenium.version}</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Provides Selenium WebDriver APIs used by step implementations to automate the browser.

Note: Ensure only one Selenium version is used in the project to avoid dependency conflicts.

Testinium Selenium 4 Driver (Required)

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.testinium</groupId>
  <artifactId>testinium-selenium4-driver</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

This dependency is mandatory when executing Selenium tests on the Testinium platform.It enables:

Integration with the Testinium Selenium Grid

Platform-specific capabilities (e.g., testinium:key)

Execution tracking and reporting compatibility

Note: When tests are executed on Testinium, TestiniumSeleniumDriver must be used instead of the standard RemoteWebDriver.

Logging & Utilities

Lombok

Used to reduce boilerplate code (e.g., @Slf4j).

SLF4J API

Provides a standard logging facade used in step implementations and hooks.

Build Plugins

Maven Compiler Plugin

Compiles the project using Java 21.Gauge Maven PluginEnables running Gauge specifications via Maven, typically through:

mvn test

or mvn gauge:execute (depending on your setup)
