Unable to run selenium code from grrovy script(SOAPUI)

I am trying to run this code from selenium code from groovy script(SOAPUI) but getting the error - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.apache.http.conn.ssl.SSLConnectionSocketFactory error

 

import org.openqa.selenium.*
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit
import org.openqa.selenium.OutputType
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils

//Initiate WebDriver
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:/chromedriver/chromedriver.exe");
log.info(System.getProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver"));

WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver()


//Setup Environment
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
driver.get("http://www.google.com");

//Your Code
Thread.sleep(10000)
driver.quit()

 

Any idea why this might be happening? 

 

This is what I have tried:

1) I have placed the selenium jar 3.0.1 placed in the lib and bin folder of soap folder.

2) I have tried downgrading my selenium to 2.3.9

3) I have tried with all three browsers(i.e, firefox and chrome)

4) Tried adding the driver in the path

    Hi,

     

    I haven't been able to prove it, but I think it might be to do with the version of org.apache.httpcomponents.httpclient that SoapUI is using? That classSSLConnectionSocketFactory isn't in httpclient-4.1.1.jar (that SoapUI ships with), but is in the latest httpclient-4.5.2.jar.

     

    You might get away with replacing httpclient and httpcore with the later versions in the SoapUI /lib folder, but like I say, I cannot prove this yet. 

     

    I was trying to recreate the error by running your script, having added selenium-chrome-driver-2.53.1.jar and selenium-java-2.53.1.jar to /bin/ext/, but I get NoClassDefFound error on [org/openqa/selenium/html5/LocationContext] instead - Have you added any other dependencies? Which SoapUI version are you using?

     

    It would be good to hear how you get on, because I have been considering updating those Apache http jars in the source code for other reasons, but it might also create some issues / testing effort for me. 

     

    Thanks,

    Rupert

      I am using SOAP - 5.2.1 and I did not add any other dependencies. By replacing the HTTP client and HTTP core the ssl problem is gone. Now it is showing this new error:

       

       

      org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

      Also, someone posted a workaround on - https://github.com/seleniumhq/selenium/issues/388

       

       


      ProxySelector proxy = ProxySelector.getDefault();
      WsdlProject wsdlProject = new WsdlProject("");
      ProxySelector.setDefault(proxy);
      WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

       

      Which does not seem to work either. Possible bug in SOAPUI? Does SOAPUI supports selenium?

        Hi,

         

        SoapUI is not designed to run Selenium as part of its standard product suite, so it cannot really be considered a bug.

         

        However, I think I've got your script to run by adding the following list of jars:

         

        commons-exec-1.3.jar

        gson-2.8.0.jar

        selenium-api-2.53.1.jar

        selenium-chrome-driver-2.53.1.jar

        selenium-java-2.53.1.jar

        selenium-remote-driver-2.53.1.jar

        selenium-server-2.53.1.jar

         

        I also needed to update my Chrome driver to this one:

         

        http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.25/

         

        The script now runs, I can see chrome start, and it completes without error or output.

         

        Can you give it a shot please?

         

        regards,

        Rupert
