Recently I have implemented parallel selenium UI test execution by increasing Jenkins node count and creating multiple Jenkins jobs with different regression.xml files pointing to them.
In a nutshell in a single server, there are multiple browser windows open and start test execution.
Previously, we use just a one Jenkins node, so any given time there will only one browser instance running in the test server.
The problem I’m having is, we are having many failures with the Parallel execution when compared to old (sequential) execution.
I believe this happens because when multiple browsers are open in the same server, element focus might be change time to time.
And I got this type of exceptions most of the time.
org.openqa.selenium.ElementClickInterceptedException: element click intercepted:
So is this the normal behavior with multiple browser test in the same server, or is this something we can fix by having a code level improvements?
