How to run Selenium scripts using batch file and schedule every day?

Generally we would like to have our automation suite to be scheduled so that it runs based on the scheduler settings. So I am assuming you will have TestNG suite (.xml) which you are planning to run. 

To achieve scheduling dividing tasks as below: 

1. Create batch file for the TestNG xml executed. 

We can create batch file with following content: 

set classpath=C:\Sel_WS\MySelenium\bin;C:\Srinivas Kini\Selenium_New\libs\*;C:\Srinivas Kini\Selenium Installers\eclipse-jee-mars-1-win32\eclipse\plugins\org.testng.eclipse_6.11.0.201703011520\lib\*;

java org.testng.TestNG TestNG.xml

pause

Here TestNG.xml is the TestNG suite we would like to execute. 

2. Add suite in OS scheduler. For windows, steps are given below: 

Open Task Scheduler from Start --> Programs

click on "Create Basic Task"

click Next and provide name to your task

Select Schedule interval and time and other parameters

Select "Start a Program" radio

Browse to the batch files path and select it

click on Finish. 

Now your program is scheduled to run :-).
