I think you can do that. But I feel the better or easier way to do that is using different windows. Having said that we can use either multithreading
or multiprocessing
or subprocess
module to trigger the task in parallel (near parallel).
Multithreading example
Let me show you a simple example as to how to spawn multiple tests using threading
module.
from selenium import webdriver
import threading
import time
def test_logic():
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
url = 'https://www.google.co.in'
driver.get(url)
# Implement your test logic
time.sleep(2)
driver.quit()
N = 5 # Number of browsers to spawn
thread_list = list()
# Start test
for i in range(N):
t = threading.Thread(name='Test {}'.format(i), target=test_logic)
t.start()
time.sleep(1)
print(t.name + ' started!')
thread_list.append(t)
# Wait for all threads to complete
for thread in thread_list:
thread.join()
print('Test completed!')
Here I am spawning 5 browsers to run test cases at one time. Instead of implementing the test logic I have put sleep time of 2 seconds for the purpose of demonstration. The code will fire up 5 firefox browsers (tested with python 2.7), open google and wait for 2 seconds before quitting.
Logs:
Test 0 started!
Test 1 started!
Test 2 started!
Test 3 started!
Test 4 started!
Test completed!
Process finished with exit code 0
