Short answer
Set the browser setting in the CodeceptJS config to internet explorer instead of chrome.
Verbose anwser
If you want to CodeceptJS to test across different browsers, then you're only option is to use the WebDriverIO Helper as it communicates with a Selenium Server which then talks to the browser of your choice (assuming that you have the appropriate web driver. i.e. IEDriver.exe for Internet Explorer etc.). Though the Selenium Server setup is made easier by using selenium-standalone.
So assuming you already have your selenium-standalone server running, then you have to set the browser that you want to use for testing, the accepted values are "chrome", "firefox" and "internet explorer". Other browsers could be supported, though I haven't used them directly so check the selenium server docs for more information.
Here is an example of a basic configuration, which allows the user to override the url and browser by using environment variables (i.e. useful when using with Jenkins).
Codeceptjs config file
./codecept.conf.js
exports.config = {
output: './output',
helpers: {
WebDriverIO: {
url: process.env.URL || 'http://192.168.8.101',
browser: process.env.BROWSER || 'chrome',
},
FileSystem: {},
},
mocha: {},
bootstrap: false,
teardown: null,
hooks: [],
tests: './tests/*_test.js',
timeout: 10000,
name: 'doler-js',
};Running a test on Windows using a batch file.
rem Assuming you are in your root project folder.
cd "%~dp0"
set BROWSER=internet explorer
set URL=http://192.168.8.101
node "node_modules\codeceptjs\bin\codecept.js" run -c ./codecept.conf.jsAlternative windows wrapper for calling codeceptjs
I personally use a small batch wrapper script to handle calling CodeceptJS on windows, because this way you can still define your scripts in your package.json and it will work on Windows and MacOS.
codeceptjs.bat in root project folder
@SETLOCAL
@SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
echo Executing local codeceptjs (windows workaround)
node "%~dp0\node_modules\codeceptjs\bin\codecept.js" %*package.json

Don't just copy/paste the code because it probably won't work on your setup. I just wanted to give you an idea of how it could work/look like.

I want to run some of my tests in Internet Explorer and I want to use this command to run (npm run codeceptjs) as my aim is to run tests and generate report with one command only.
On the other hand some of my other tests should run in Chrome
What do you get instead?
