Shared Store Service

Exchange data between main process and workers (specs).

Installation

The easiest way is to keep @wdio/shared-store-service as a devDependency in your package.json.

{
    "devDependencies": {
        "@wdio/shared-store-service": "^5.0.0"
    }
}

You can simple do it by:

npm install @wdio/shared-store-service --save-dev

Instructions on how to install WebdriverIO can be found here.

Usage

Get/set a value (plain object) to/from the store by key (string).

browser.sharedStore.set('key', 'value') set value to store

browser.sharedStore.get('key') get value from store (returns 'value')

IMPORTANT! Every spec file should be atomic and isolated from others specs. The idea of the service is to deal with very specific environment setup issues. Please avoid sharing test execution data!

Configuration

Just add shared-store to services list and the sharedStore object will be accessible to you in your test.

// wdio.conf.js
export.config = {
    // ...
    services: ['shared-store'],
    // ...
};
