I need to change the port number of which selenium standalone server is using by default (4444). Port 4444 is currently in use, is there a way to alter the port number via the wdio file?
// Test runner services // Services take over a specific job you don't want to take care of. They enhance // your test setup with almost no effort. Unlike plugins, they don't add new // commands. Instead, they hook themselves up into the test process. services: ['selenium-standalone'],
Currently I’m starting selenium server via the following command:
./node_modules/.bin/selenium-standalone start
I have also attempting to use the following with no luck:
./node_modules/.bin/selenium-standalone start -port 7777
Running the above command still attempt to run selenium sever on port 4444.

Answer
To run the selenium-standalone
on the specific port you should use the following syntax:
./node_modules/.bin/selenium-standalone start -- -port 7777
Change the port in the wdi.conf.js
:
seleniumArgs: { seleniumArgs: ["-port", "7777"], },
Also, read more about the wdio configuration file here and about wdio-cli here
So, your final wdio.conf.js
should look like:
exports.config = { /** * server configurations */ services: ['selenium-standalone'], port: 7777, seleniumArgs: { seleniumArgs: ["-port", "7777"], }, }
