Teleport Proxy Service

In the browser menu (top right corner), find "Settings", and then, under "Network settings", go to "Settings" to select "Manual network configuration". Enter, depending on your network protocol, the IP address, the port and click on "OK". Open any website and in the window that appears, enter the proxy password and login, then click "Ok" again. A successful connection to the site means that the setup is successfully completed.

SIP is a virtual telephony service. A proxy server in this case is used to collect traffic, its conversion and further transmission to the subscriber via cellular communication. It is mainly used by call centers to communicate with customers.

To run GUI autotests in GitLab CI\CD using Docker, Selenium, and PyTest, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a .gitlab-ci.yml file in the root directory of your project. This file will define the pipeline and the jobs for your CI\CD process.

2. Configure the pipeline to use the appropriate image for your tests. In this case, you can use a Python image with the required dependencies installed.

3. Define the before_script section to set up the environment for the tests, including installing the necessary packages and downloading the required drivers for Selenium.

4. Define the test job to run the PyTest tests using the Selenium WebDriver.

Here's an example of a .gitlab-ci.yml file:

stages:
  - test

variables:
  SELENIUM_CHROME_DRIVER: '102.0.5005.62'
  SELENIUM_FIREFOX_DRIVER: '0.26.0'

image: python:3.8

cache:
  paths:
    - .venv
    - requirements.txt

before_script:
  - apt-get update -qq
  - apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
      build-essential \
      wget \
      xvfb \
      xvfb-run
  - pip install --upgrade pip
  - pip install --quiet --upgrade pytest
  - pip install --quiet selenium
  - pip install --quiet webdriver-manager
  - wget https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/releases/download/v${SELENIUM_CHROME_DRIVER}/chromedriver_linux64.zip
  - unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip chromedriver
  - wget https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/releases/download/v${SELENIUM_FIREFOX_DRIVER}/geckodriver-v${SELENIUM_FIREFOX_DRIVER}
  - mv geckodriver-v${SELENIUM_FIREFOX_DRIVER} geckodriver

test:
  stage: test
  script:
    - pytest tests/
  tags:
    - selenium
  artifacts:
    reports:
      - html
  only:
    - master
    - merge_requests

This .gitlab-ci.yml file defines a single stage called test that runs the PyTest tests in the tests/ directory. The before_script section installs the necessary dependencies, downloads the Selenium WebDriver for Chrome and Firefox, and sets up the environment for running the tests.

The tags: - selenium line ensures that the job runs on a runner with the selenium tag, which should have the appropriate Selenium WebDriver installed. The artifacts: reports: - html line enables the generation of HTML reports for the test results.

The only: - master - merge_requests line specifies that the tests should be run on every commit to the master branch and on every merge request.

Once you've set up the .gitlab-ci.yml file, commit and push it to your repository. Then, create a new merge request or push to the master branch to trigger the CI\CD pipeline and run the GUI autotests using Docker, Selenium, and PyTest.

To configure a proxy manually, you'll need to access the settings of the application or software you're using that requires a proxy server. The steps to configure a proxy manually will vary depending on the application or software. Here are some general steps for common applications:

For Web Browsers:

1. Open your web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge).
2. Click on the menu button (usually three horizontal lines or three dots) and select "Settings" or "Options."
3. Look for a section related to "Network settings," "Proxy settings," or "Connections."
4. In the proxy settings, you'll find fields for the proxy server address and port. Enter the proxy server address and port provided by your proxy service.
5. If your proxy server requires authentication, enter the username and password in the respective fields.
6. Save your changes and close the settings window.

For Windows:

1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog.
2. Type "inetcpl" and press Enter to open the Internet Properties window.
3. Go to the "Connections" tab, and click on "LAN settings."
4. In the LAN settings, check the box next to "Use a proxy server for your LAN" if you have a proxy server configured. Enter the proxy server address and port in the appropriate fields.
5. If your proxy server requires authentication, check the box next to "Bypass proxy server for local addresses" and enter the local IP address of the website you want to access (e.g., "127.0.0.1" for localhost).
6. Save your changes and close the Internet Properties window.

For macOS:

1. Click the Apple menu and select "System Preferences."
2. Click "Network."
3. Select the network connection you want to configure the proxy settings for (e.g., Wi-Fi, Ethernet).
4. Click the "Advanced" button.
5. Go to the "Proxies" tab.
6. Check the box next to "HTTP proxy" or "HTTPS proxy" if you have a proxy server configured. Enter the proxy server address and port in the appropriate fields. 7. If your proxy server requires authentication, click the "Security" tab and check the box next to "Proxy server is secure." Enter the username and password in the respective fields.
8. Save your changes and close the Network preferences window.

The term "public" should be understood to mean open proxy servers. That is, they can be used by all users without exception. They can be insecure and are often quite overloaded, so the connection speed or response time when using public proxies can be very slow.
