Now a Days it has now become crucial to test web applications on multiple browsers. On different browsers, client components like Javascript, AJAX requests, Applets, Flash, Flex etc.applications on multiple browsers. Also for different browsers you may have different handling on how requests are processed on server side based on the user-agent received from client browser. So just testing your web application on single web browser is not enough. You need to make sure that your web application works fine across multiple browser.So here I will tell you how to test a web application using selenium on multiple Browser.
Four simple steps you need to follow:
Step 1: Create your Script. Using TestNG annotations. Define parameters (using @Parameters) for taking input value i.e, which browser should be used for Running the Test
Step 2: Create a TestNG XML for running your script
Step 3: Configure the TestNG XML for passing parameters i.e, to tell which browser should be used for Running the Test
Step 4: Run the TestNG XML which can pass the appropriate browser name to the Script such that the Test Case is executed in a specified browser
Parallel Test in Selenium
Create a TestNG XML for running your test. Configure the TestNG XML for passing parameters
This is the Testng.xml.By this you can test you application on multiple browser mention in testng.xml

//You need to add a annotation in you java class.By using @Parameters("browser") you can run your test on multiple browser.
Create a ‘New Class’ file and refer the name to the actual page from the test object, by right click on the above created Package and select New > Class. In our case it as CrossBrowsertest

public class CrossBrowsertest {
WebDriver driver;
@Parameters("browser")
@BeforeTest
public void openBrowser(String browser){
if(browser.equals("chrome")){
//If browser is equal to chrome
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\Chromepth\\ChromeDriver.exe");
driver = new ChromeDriver();
}else if(browser.equals("firefox")){
//If browser is equal to firefox
driver = new FirefoxDriver();
}
else if(browser.equals("ie")){
//If browser is equal to ie
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver","C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\ie32bit\\IEDriverServer.exe");
driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}}
@Test
public void doLogin() throws InterruptedException{
driver.get("http://gmail.com");
//Open url
driver.findElement(By.id("Email")).sendKeys("selemiumgyan");
//Enter email id
driver.findElement(By.id("Passwd")).sendKeys("password");
// Enter password
}}
