Running Selenium Script on a Linux machine.

I was trying to run a selenium script on one of the Linux Red hat machine and was getting the below message:

Firefox console output:
Error: no display specified
Error: no display specified

Note: The Linux Red Hat was configured earlier to work with XVFB Firefox.

Solution:

Linux natively does not have capability to run any application that launches UI.

Below 2 steps needs to be executed for the browsers to launch and run the test.

Xvfb :99 -ac -screen 0 1280x1024x24 &

export DISPLAY=:99
