Required Software for Selenium Setup


Ø  Download and Install Java Development Kit (JDK) on Windows using following URL : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

2.   Click on download button and save the file
3.   Once get downloaded after that double click and start installation


Ø  Set Up Java Environment Variable Path
There are two types of environmental variables:

1.    User Variables : Specific to a particular Windows user account
2.    System variables : For all the user of the machine

Step 1: Setting the JAVA_HOME

a.    Right-clicking on ‘My Computer’ and click on Properties


b.   A pop up window will display, Choose ‘Advanced system settings’.


c.    Under the Advanced tab choose the ‘Environment Variable…‘option.


d.    Select New in the System variables.


e.    Define the Variable name as ‘JAVA_HOME‘ and Variable value as ‘C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45‘ and click OK

Step 2: Setting the PATH Variable

a.    Now we need to specify the location in the PATH variable. For PATH, most probably it will already exist in your machine. So just select it and choose the Edit option.
b.   In the editor add the value “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45\bin” and click OK button.

Note: The new values are separated by a semicolon from the existing ones and be careful and do not make any changes in the existing string, as it is very sensitive information.
c.       Now go to Start and type cmd in the Run and hit Enter. It will launch the Command Prompt. Type ‘java -version‘, it will display the following information.

Note: Restart the computer in order to make your system aware of these changes.

Ø  Install Eclipse IDE

1.    Go to URL : https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/Oxygen/2


2.     For Windows users, you will have to know what type of version of your OS you have. If your computer is a 64 bit Windows, select Windows 64 and if you have a 32 bit Windows, select Windows 32 bit.


3.    Click on 32 bit or 64bit  correspond to “Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers” depends on your system configuration

4.    After clicking download page will open

5.    Click on download button and Save the .zip file to your disk.


6.    Once you have downloaded the Eclipse archive you will need to extract the zip file, which will create the unzipped Eclipse folder.
7.    Open the eclipse folder from the location where you have saved it

8.    Since Eclipse IDE does not have any installer, there will be a file inside the Eclipse folder named eclipse.exe. You can double click on the file to run Eclipse.
Note: This step is not required, but it’s strongly recommended. Right-click the Eclipse Icon and press “Send To” -> “Desktop (Create Shortcut).” Now you will be able to launch Eclipse from your desktop.
Ø  Download “Selenium web driver  3.11 from https://www.seleniumhq.org/download/
